summary
A mural paying tribute to the victims of the 2016 mass shooting at Orlando, Florida's Pulse nightclub has been vandalized by white supremacists - according to Newsweek. A sticker from 'Patriot Front' was stuck on a memorial to the victims of the 2016 Pulse nightclub massacre. The article uncritically quotes the SPLC and the Anti-Defamation League that Patriot Front is a significant 'hate group'. It does not consider the possibility that the sticker was stuck there by anyone else other than white supremacists. In any case, the article doesn't explain in what way the sticker expresses hate.
