Beastie Boys' Adam 'MCA' Yauch's Memorial Playground Defaced With Swastikas

by HHL Editors

Some Donald Trump supporters may be celebrating his victory by expressing hate, because the Beastie Boys’ Adam “MCA” Yauch’s memorial park in New York City was defaced with swastikas and “Go Trump” graffiti.

The heartless act was discovered on Friday (Nov. 18) in Brooklyn Heights.

A short while after the vandalism was reported, City Councilman Brad Lander sent a tweet condemning it.

Yauch was born into the Jewish faith, as were his bandmates Ad-Rock and Mike D.

MCA died in 2012 of salivary gland cancer.
