The Black Lives Matter street mural in front of Trump Tower in midtown Manhattan has been vandalized three times in one week, according to the New York Police Department.
(Snip)
The latest incident occurred Saturday afternoon when two women from Staten Island, ages 39 and 29, were arrested after they were seen pouring paint on the mural, the department said.
When an officer attempted to approach one of the women, the officer slipped and injured his head and arm. He was taken to Bellevue Hospital and is in stable condition, the NYPD said.

She was vandalizing a BLM display but if she had been breaking windows the cop would have let her alone.

Why would Americans want to celebrate and support the proffered goals of BLM

They can't catch murders, but can arrest normal people.
What is the charge?

The 'mural' is itself an act of gross vandalism. How can you do it twice?

If paint is on the street, why is putting more paint on the street vandalism?

If a BLM “mural” on the street is free speech, isn’t pouring paint on the “mural” also free speech?

defacing the public, tax-payer funded street with ''B...L...M..." is a ''mural''...
but doing anything else is ''vandalism''...
And the AP can't figure out why their outlets/newspaper usage is declining so rapidly...

Eventually, at that rate, the BLM graffiti will disappear for good!

If they keep it up, with different colors, it will end up looking like a mammoth Jackson Pollock!

Those "vandals" were doing their part to take their country back. When do the police fight back to defend themselves in these leftist what Trump said holes?

They didn't vandalize any "mural"...they were cleaning up graffiti.

1. Stop calling it a mural. It's a bunch of block letters. Don't accept the enemedia's attempt to elevate it into some great artwork. It's infantile. Like them.
2. Play their game, but better. And in a way that they can't arrest you. Everyone get some chalk. Go down there and draw an outline of a homicide victim, like the cops do. Everyone draw a different one. All around there on the street, sidewalls, lampposts, etc. Emphasize how much violence defunding the police is causing. Don't stop. Draw hundreds, thousands of these. Every time done get erased, draw many more. It's chalk. There's no crime to use it. And best of all, they will have no answer for this.

I guess everyone missed the new Hip Hop postal stamps that were recently issued by the Postal Service. Yes, I'm serious. There's a group of four stamps, including a "Graffiti Art" stamp that pictures a white woman who's crouching down on the ground. It's amazing that the U.S. government is now encouraging vandalism.

By definition mindless graffiti vandalizes wherever it is placed on. So one cannot vandalize something that has already been vandalized.

I don't know what illiterate came up with calling these street slogans "murals" It drives me up the very wall that a "mural" is properly painted on. From the latin "murus", the word freaking MEANS ON A WALL. What you have there my commie friend is, at best, a "Roadal". Stop following whatever jackass first wandered down that godforsaken stylebook path, refuse to call a street slogan anything but what it is.
