Until they were called out

@Brendan1963 and I were there yesterday morning at 10 and we both took pictures! Not Fake and pretty pathetic that anyone would say it was! pic.twitter.com/YD5b066Ps9

Even a member of the resistance called them out
I took the photo at 9:47 am Sunday morning. By 1:30 pm, someone had removed the letters. The glass panel was obviously open for anyone to edit the letters.
