Protesting and then there's defacing property

Given the current state of affairs in the country, I would love to be able to protest and hope to bring constitutional order back as the norm. Since that isn't doable for me, I appreciate those who are willing and able to take a peaceful stand for what's right. This sort of thing, however, is both counterproductive and disgraceful (not to mention against the law). This is a friend's office building. Ugly in so many ways, and utterly meaningless for getting any kind of message across.
