It’s Blaz the impaler.
A banner unfurled over the Staten Island Expressway Tuesday shows New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio smirking in a Che Guevara shirt — while holding up Lady Liberty’s severed, bloody head.
“It’s what he’s doing to New York, he’s severing the head of the greatest city on earth,” said the artist behind the eye-grabbing work, Scott LoBaido.
The Staten Islander was spurred to take a stab at Hizzoner over his response to the Black Lives Matter protests raging in the Big Apple.
“New York has turned into a sh–hole because of this guy,” LoBaido said of the mayor. “He hates the true New Yorkers: police officers, firefighters… people who built this city.”

This artist is going to go to a reeducation camp or, more likely, a gulag.
I don’t know much about art, but I know what I like.
Well done!
That’s a keeper!
Bttt
Nobody pinged me? I drive on that highway 4 days a week.
Yeah he’s not liked very much at all among we Italians out here. Rudy is treated like a Caesar :-)
In fact the German is hated
bttt
The Che shirt is a nice touch.
That’s great street theater.
(But I wish folks would learn to size images so as to not waste page ‘real estate’ and bandwidth.)
Can some stealth patriot in the Mayor’s office manage to put that as a watermark on official city stationery???
Bkmk
Not much traffic.
Scott LoBaido is awesome. He has donated so much of his time talent and art over the years to great causes like building homes for traumatically injured service people. I’ve seen him at many charity events. God bless him. And I love what he did here.
More truth.
I wish someone would post a tutorial on how to do that.
I've posted some big ones inadvertently in part because I've never learned how to code scaling.

HTML sandbox, abut 1/6th of the way down the page, although that only deals with changing the ‘real estate’.
The bandwidth problem still remains. You have to have access to the original image and some knowledge of a image editing program to be able to make an image bandwidth friendly, So I don’t really expect the average FReeper to be able to ‘be kind’ and quit wasting the data allowance of people like me who are on a metered connection.
Sometimes I just have to turn off images in my browser, because there are occasionally poorly formatted image heavy FR threads that will eat up as much bandwidth as watching a half hour HD video on Youtube.
