"The mural is gone, it's not supposed to be gone, and someone will pay"

The LA Downtown News has an editorial on the Kent Twitchell mural dispute. Their conclusion:

"We're not sure what will happen next. No one is. A trial is scheduled for Nov. 6, but that's a long time away, and the whole prospect speaks to a big waste of money and time. The Department of Labor and the YWCA should jointly own up to the error in judgment and offer to pay for the restoration of the mural. In the end it will cost less than a zillion attorneys, their billable hours and the court costs, especially since someone will lose in the end."
