And why is this being related to rascism? It's not like people are burning the flag of other countries in videos.

Because it's a certain type of person painting them.

Also, it's pretty disrespectful to the flag, it'll be driven, walked and cycled over.

It's also against the law to mess with road markings. Road markings need to look like they're supposed to look; how they look conveys their meaning. You can't just let anybody with a tin of Dulux and a Very Important Cause go around making up their own road markings.

Highways authorities are required by law to remove vandalism like this, and the groups responsible will inevitably use this as an excuse to cry about being censored.

It is. Painting it in the first place on the ground is the disrespect. After that it's nothing more than graffiti.

Kinda shows the point when illegal immigrants get more money than homeless people who don't abuse subtance use.

Deranged for you to pretend you don't know why this is being linked to racism and then post something like this

"This has nothing at all to do with racism, it's just pride in our football team. But apropos of nothing, how about all those illegal immigrants?!"
