Defacing public property isn't protected under the first amendment.

We need to come to an agreement on what defacing really means. If you put something removable from a statue, I don't think that's exactly defacing it. Taking spray paint or a hammer to it, certainly. But going by this bar, I think we could say someone humping the Wall Street Bull is technically defacing it.
