Minneapolis Stop Sign with “FTP” Graffiti

FTP Fuck The Police Stop Sign
A stop sign in South Minneapolis is defaced with graffiti, including the phrase "FTP" and "AND THINK." The "FTP" tag is a common abbreviation for "Fuck The Police," a slogan frequently used in protests against police brutality and misconduct. This act of vandalism occurred in the context of heightened social unrest and protests in Minneapolis, particularly following the murder of George Floyd in May 2020. The graffiti serves as a visual commentary on public sentiment towards law enforcement during a period of significant civil activism.
