NYPD Hate Crimes Unit Investigating Vile Defacing of Ruth Bader Ginsburg Poster in Brooklyn

A subway poster advertising a commemorative book on Ruth Bader Ginsburg was defaced with anti-Semitic and other slurs.

The NYPD's hate crimes unit is investigating slur-ridden "DIE" graffiti scrawled on a Brooklyn subway station poster of Ruth Bader Ginsburg after a rider flagged it on Twitter Tuesday.

"What is going to be done about this?" the rider captioned in her tweet, tagging the mayor's office, the MTA and NYPD among other accounts. She said it was spotted at the Nassau Avenue G train stop.

"DIE" in all capital letters is scrawled in black marker across Ginsburg's forehead on the poster; "JEW" was written over her glasses, followed by another slur and a swastika over her mouth.

In a statement on Wednesday, Gov. Andrew Cuomo denounced the graffiti.

"We will not stand by and allow hateful and discriminatory vandalism in New York," he said. "I have directed the New York State Police Hate Crimes Task Force to provide the NYPD with any resources needed to assist in the investigation."

If ever there was another example of a "Smollett" crime .... this could be it.

I can't believe they didn't leave a MAGA hat on the sidewalk.

If Ruth Bader is well enough to work,
she’s well enough to go out and deface her own poster...

So THIS is what Aunt Ruthie has been up to. Ain’t she supposed to be in DC reading amicus briefs or something?

And where is the security camera footage? That’s important in making sure Ruthie wasn’t jogging in the area around the time the “defacement” occurred.

“So, mz ilhan omar, where were you on the night in question?” Think anyone will accuse of her of inciting further hatred of Jews and possibly inciting this kind of action? Nah. PC. Protected Class.

Tlaib and Omar have called in. Wasn’t them. They have a great alibi. They didn’t do this. Honest.

Yeah. This was someone with a sharpe writing dirty words on a poster. Even if true, I don’t care.

Wake me when they do something about the near daily unprovoked crimes by blacks and Arabs on Hasidic Jews in crown heights.

Given Hasidic Jews are generally Republicans and Ruth “kill the babies” Ginsburg is a cannananite saint of the Democrats, there is why this makes news.

I'd bet my allowance that this is another and desperate hoax.

(And, I don't even get an allowance.)

https://www.thecollegefix.com/here-are-50-campus-hate-crime-hoaxes-the-college-fix-has-covered-since-2012/

“Examples included two black students at Montclair State University who reported finding hateful and threatening graffiti aimed at African Americans and women on their dorm room doors. One of the messages read, “Black B— you will die.” Police, however, discovered the students penned the graffiti themselves.”

“In 2013, there was the hate crime at Oberlin College that fell apart, an alleged “KKK figure” roaming the campus who turned out to be just “a person wrapped in a blanket.” Then it came to light that a series of racist, anti-Jewish and anti-gay messages found at Oberlin were the work of two Obama-supporting Leftists.’


MORE AT LINK... probably a fake hate crime...

quite often “hate-crimes” are perpetrated by the person reporting them. It wouldn’t come as a surprise if that is the case here.
