7. I see it, and so will a lot of America, as vandalism of a library. Period.

Most people do not know and won't care whose name is on the building - they see it as a library, a public building; they see that taxpayers will have to pay for the mess to be cleaned up, and regular people will be very critical.

Just to make clear, I'm not addressing the content of the vandalism or the messages they may have intended to publicize. While I may or may not agree with any or all of it, I'm okay with people protesting. I do think if you care about an issue, it's more effective to not drive people away through poor marketing and publicity of said issue. It's also shortsighted, since any of your opponents or competitors are going to use it against you.
