From msnbc: JACKSON, Miss. - A sign marking the site where Emmett Till's battered body was pulled from a river in 1955 has been ripped down by vandals, authorities said.
The sign posted on a road near the Tallahatchie River was among eight that were erected after the county adopted a resolution last year apologizing to Till's family because an all-white jury acquitted two white men of murdering Till for whistling at a white woman.
Tallahatchie County Sheriff William Brewer Jr. said his office is investigating the incident, which authorities believed occurred Saturday night.
This election needs to be over now, people, seriously. The rutting hell is wrong with us? Emmett Till? Seriously? Not okay.
