Black Lives Matter Mural at Trump Tower Draws Angry Crowd
PJ Media ^ | 13 July2020 | Jim Treacher

Last week, the worst mayor in the history of the United States decided it was a good idea to use city funds to paint a “Black Lives Matter” mural on Fifth Avenue in front of Trump Tower. Bill de Blasio is too incompetent to do anything about the skyrocketing murder rate, and his administration is directly responsible for the 22,000 New Yorkers who have died so far from COVID-19 the Chinese virus, but at least he can troll the president of the United States while simultaneously begging for federal funds.

If the goal of de Blasio’s #woke photo op was to set New Yorkers against each other and escalate the hostility even further, he has succeeded beyond his wildest pinko commie dreams. Lee Brown, NY Post:

On Saturday — just two days after Mayor Bill de Blasio was jeered as he helped paint the large yellow mural — there were further ugly confrontations as dozens of “All Lives Matter” counter-protesters descended on Fifth Avenue, photos and video show…

One woman screamed “F–k you” at Black Lives Matter protesters, giving double middle-finger salutes — also making exaggerated coughing and sneezing gestures seemingly to scare rivals during the coronavirus pandemic, the footage shows…

Maybe we are seeing the rise of enough of the crap! To you few NYes that have balls. Everyone march with a bucket of black paint followed by a grouppeople carrying sticks with paint rollers attached. March down towards Trump tower, dump the cans of paint while you peacefully march then have the rollers follow behind, and erase it with beautiful Black Paint Splatters Matter!

Because they’re in a cult. Cults have no use for the biological family, they get in the way.

Carry signs that say “Black Livers Matter”.

Then carry another sign next to it that says “You want onions with that?”

Play with their minds and get media attention at the same time. Also be prepared to beat the shit out of them if they go after your signs.

Yes it is, I saw one the other day that said “School Crossing.” Truly an artistic masterpiece.

Was it written in white letters? If it was, it was racist. /S

Bill de Blasio, working for his leftist agenda rather than the people of his city.

Let these foul leftists ‘out’ themselves.

I hope someone from America’s well-paid mental health profession will stand up and address America’s mental health.

Wishful thinking. Those folks are nuts.

They call this a “mural” ?!

from the wikipedia article for mural:

“A mural is a piece of artwork painted or applied directly on a wall or ceiling. A distinguishing characteristic of mural painting is that the architectural elements of the given space are harmoniously incorporated into the picture.”

Block lettering on a street is NOT a “mural.”

I saw some murals not far from me beautiful stuff one was STOP AHEAD the other LOADING ZONE and a beautifully displayed FIRE ZONE that was actually on a parking lot. Fantastic works.

That’s okay, the rest of the country never much mattered to New York.

The media uses "mural" to infer that this block lettering is "art," so they can infer that those opposing it are "anti-art."
