BREAKING NEWS – Washington, D.C. – Democratic lawmakers put back on display on Capitol Hill a controversial painting that angered police with its depiction of officers as pigs — after Republican Rep. Duncan Hunter personally took down the picture last week. The move by members of the Congressional Black Caucus, whose office for months had sponsored the display of the student artwork, could revive tensions with the law enforcement community. An unnamed artist stated that he plans on painting a picture of the Congressional Black Caucus, depicting them as “cuckoo birds”, and have it also hung on the walls of Capital Hill. The CBC responded to the possible upcoming drawing by saying, “that type of display would be blatant racism, because there is no justification for portraying humans as animals.”
