Huge Black Lives Matter mural outside Trump Tower vandalized with ‘black tar or paint
PITCH BLACK Huge Black Lives Matter mural outside Trump Tower vandalized with ‘black tar or paint’ in middle of the night THE massive Black Lives Matter mural painted outside of Trump Tower in Manhattan has been vandalized with what looks like black tar or paint. Vandals reportedly dumped the substance out from a van, and covered the full length of the mural, shortly after midnight on Sunday, the New York Post reported. The bright yellow mural was painted in July after being commissioned by New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, and has been targeted by vandals multiple times since. After the mural was painted, it was vandalized at least four times in July alone, according to CNN. The NYPD has previously said that they do not keep track of how often the mural is vandalized. The first defacement occurred just days after the large mural, which covers Fifth Avenue where Trump Tower is located, was painted. One person reportedly dumped red paint all over the "V" in Lives. In the incidents that have occurred since, suspects typically bring some sort of paint and attempt to smear it over the artwork. One woman, 39-year-old Juliet Germonotta, has been arrested on two separate occasions for defacing the mural. In August, she was caught on camera smearing blue paint across it with her hands. She was also arrested on July 17 with two other women for a similar stunt, according to NBC. President Trump has called the work, which was painted in support of racial justice and the Black Lives Matter protest movement, a "symbol of hate." The president slammed de Blasio for "denigrating" the "luxury" of Fifth Avenue. https://www.the-sun.com/news/1689036...aced-with-tar/ |

So does this mean that "black tar matters"?

You know it's funny when you see a white protester get pissed when someone say's all lives matter.

Vandalizing vandalism is no more acceptable than the original vandalism. Sorry.

Neither is spending taxpayer dollars to commission a political statement in front of a rivals residence and property. If de Blasio really felt so strongly about the cause, he should have had the mural painted in front Gracie Mansion where he lives. |

I suppose this is some sort of poetic justice. If the perps are caught and prosecuted, I think as a sentence, they should be made to put a final coat on and cover all of it.

Newsweek has reported that the NBA will be removing BLM signs from courts and removing social justice slogans from uniforms after this season. Too little too late. Fans are tired of being lectured by overpaid, meat head athletes.

Since it was government sanctioned, and it was clearly aimed at one person, it's more harassment than vandalism. Government shouldn't use tax dollars to publicly harass a private citizen. Ever. |
