      XPost: alt.politics.trump, alt.niggers, sac.politics       XPost: alt.fan.rush-limbaugh       From: nigger-lovers@disney.com              Three people were arrested and a fourth was issued a summons       after a Black Lives Matter mural on Manhattan's Fifth Avenue in       front of Trump Tower was vandalized with blue paint Friday       afternoon, police said.              The incident, which happened about 4:00 p.m., marks the second       in a week that someone threw paint on the mural, which the city       painted July 9.              Two women and a man were arrested and charged with criminal       mischief after surveillance video showed them smearing the blue       paint, police said. Germanotta, 39, D'Anna Morgan, 25, and Luis       Martinez, 44 were released with a desk appearance ticket,       according to police.              Another person, who was identified only as a 64-year-old woman,       was issued a summons for illegally posting fliers.              NBC New York reported that it appeared to be a coordinated       effort.              Morgan and Germanotta said that their actions were in part       motivated by anger at Mayor Bill de Blasio. Morgan, who is       Black, said she has members of law enforcement in her family.              "Basically, I'm just sick and tired of the disrespect that our       law enforcement is getting under de Blasio and Cuomo," Morgan       said, referring to the mayor and Gov. Andrew Cuomo. "I am not       anti-Black at all. I am African American. All lives matter,       including Black lives," she added.              Germanotta, who is friends with Morgan, said that others have       painted graffiti around New York City and she doesn't think they       should have been arrested. "Why do I get arrested for speaking       my mind and having a disobedient protest and they don't?" she       said.              Germanotta was seen being arrested while wearing an "All Lives       Matter" shirt and wearing a rainbow-colored flag with the words       "LGBT for Trump" on it. She said she wants people to know she is       transgender, HIV positive and a registered Democrat who plans to       vote for Trump in November.              On Monday, a man dumped red paint on part of the mural before       running away. The NYPD has released photos of that man and say       he is wanted for criminal mischief.              The Black Lives Matter mural was installed after protests and       calls for racial justice and police reform that followed the       death of George Floyd in Minneapolis on May 25.              Trump, a former New York City resident, has criticized the mural.              Trump called it a "symbol of hate" after plans were announced.       The president tweeted at the time that it would be "denigrating"       to what he called a luxury avenue.              After Monday's vandalism, the mural was quickly repainted.              De Blasio, a Democrat who helped paint some of it, was defiant       after that incident, tweeting "nice try" and noting that it had       already been fixed.              Black Lives Matter movement "is more than words, and it can’t be       undone," he said.              Trump in October changed his permanent residence from New York       City to Florida.              Cuomo, a Democrat, remarked at the time: "Good riddance. It's       not like Mr. Trump paid taxes here anyway." The governor added,       "He's all yours, Florida."              Trump tweeted about the change in residence at the time that "I       cherish New York, and the people of New York, and always will."       But the president said "I have been treated very badly by the       political leaders of both the city and state."              https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/three-arrested-after-black-       lives-matter-mural-near-trump-tower-n1234257              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
