A man who was denied entry to the Museum of Modern Art because his membership had been revoked became enraged, jumped over a desk and stabbed a woman and a man who work at the Midtown institution Saturday afternoon, police said.

The attack, which unfolded shortly after 4 p.m., sent patrons running for the exits.

Both victims were taken to Bellevue Hospital, and their injuries were not life-threatening, sources said.

The suspect recently had his membership revoked from the Museum of Modern Art, according to authorities.

So why should we Americans give a damn?

People who are now masked are now being seen as the mental ill.

I am still seeing people, alone, in a car masked!

Why?

Those still wearing mask are the true base of the Democrat party - they have drank the kool aid and it has made them unable to be reasoned with.

People who wear masks in public voluntarily (where it is not mandated) fall into two categories for me:

1) They are S&M aficionados and enjoy playing the submissive "slave" role.

2) They are about to rob a bank.

“I’m going to get hazard pay!” joked a blood-covered woman, as she was led into an ambulance.

Just dang.

OTOH, I might have been a bit prescient, and the stabbed will be charged. It is NYC after all!

More proof that guns (and knives) do not kill people, Democrats do.

We need some common sense Democrat laws, perhaps limiting voting rights :)

stabber, not stabbed.

Oh, I don't know. These days it very well could be the stabbed.

Are they negotiating with him for a lifetime membership now?

What he should have done instead was draw eyes on paintings of faceless people

I think it’s fair that after he stabbed the two people, he should have his membership there revoked. Otherwise all the other members would start stabbing.

A perfect example of what Modern Art does to the human brain.

It made him wax Rothko on the hapless employees, and showed a complete Pollack of self-control.

Some folks think they Kandinsky get away with anything.

Other employees were spared the attack by hiding in the Johns.

Another one fled to the Dali next store and grabbed a Reubans while he was at it.

Personally, I would have Picassoed the Guggenheim.

This guy was just Expressionisming himself, but he shouldn’t have been so literal. He must be incapable ofAbstract thinking.

LOL ... I have no clue of any of the 'modern art' names who you mention in your brilliant response :)

I've been to the MoMA once .. only once .. and was bored to tears looking at all those splash painted amorphous blobs & blips and such passing off as "art" ... although I was fascinated with the 50"x35" blank white canvas titled: "A Cow In A Pasture Eating Grass -- During A Blizzard" ...........

But otherwise, as a normal standard Irredeemable Deplorable whose birthday falls on Jan 6th (Insurrection Day), I couldn't wait to get out of there to go find a street vendor selling dirty-water hot dogs .. (Yum, Yum) ......

Some Samples:




Mark Rothko


Jackson Pollock


Vassily Kandinsky


Jasper Johns


Salvador Dali


Peter Paul Rubens


Pablo Picasso

The Rubens is not considered "Modern Art" but it fit the Narrative. It's what you get in a Dali. :-)

My personal preferences/tastes in art are not in weird or abstract art. Nature scenes like sunrises, sunsets, mountains, rivers, dales and meadows and such. The discombobulated, fragmented displays on the eyes or whatever hidden meaning for interpretation not for me.
