Political Mural on Wall of Chula Vista Charter School Sparks Controversy

Parents are voicing concerns about an overtly political message on a wall of the MAAC Charter School in Chula Vista on Third Avenue.

KUSI News learned about the mural after a viewer sent a picture, offended by the depiction. It depicts an Aztec warrior, spearing President Donald Trump’s decapitated, bloody head.

Many residents in the area considered it graphic and inappropriate, considering it was on the wall of a school.
