"A Transgender Day of Remembrance marker at the University of Texas at Dallas was defaced Monday, with someone spray-painting "weird" over the memorial, Towleroad reports.
LGBT groups at the school decorate the campus's "spirit rock" for various events, and for this year's Day of Remembrance, November 20, they had painted the rock in the colors of the transgender pride flag, while placing flags nearby to represent each trans person murdered since 2012, Towleroad notes. The rock also bore the words "Transgender Day of Remembrance" and an explanation of the flags."

Sounds like they were just adding their signature. "weird" probably
tells us everything we need to know about this person. :)
