A Black Lives Matter mural painted outside of Trump Tower in Manhattan that has faced significant vandalism since it was unveiled earlier this month was defaced for the fourth time in weeks, according to police. Mark David Hutt was charged with criminal mischief after officials said he threw white paint over a section of the mural on Sunday morning. The suspect began using his hands to smear the paint across the mural shortly after 10am, NYPD detective Carrie Reilly told CNN. The Black Lives Matter mural—a project Mayor Bill de Blasio ordered after a similar painting was unveiled on the streets leading up to the White House

If anyone is an old movie buff, that is the new palm tree from Mr. Roberts. A ridiculous symbol to be protected disproportionately to its importance in the scheme of things, to soothe the fragile ego of the chief executive.

What kind of idiot scribbles graffiti in yellow paint and calls it a protected “mural”?
Yeah, THAT idiot!

Let's get serious. It is not a "painting" or a "mural". It's graffiti. It's a street gang moniker. It's garbage. That's what it really is.

It reminds me more of the movie "It's a Mad, Mad World" #1
As someone so famously said, "People get the government they deserve".

Ah. NYC is completely safe. No murder, no rape, no theft, no traffic problems, no need for cops. Except to protect Hizzoner's graffiti.
What is this? Anti-government?
DiCommio needs a new title. Dictator in chief. Supreme Marxist. Destroyer of NYC.
What a sick joke he is!

Street graffiti is to be protected by police while real art work is defaced and torn down with the blessings of the mayor and governor. Got it! We are living in an upside down world of violence and corruption.

It was foolish painting that so-called mural at city expense in front of the Trump Tower in an attempt to politically embarrass President Trump. Clear the paint on the street has become a target, and if the Mayor had a brain in his head he would have it removed in the middle of the night and move on.

That thing will be gone before the end of the year as a lawsuit like the one that got another BLM erased in CA has been filed.
The city can't support one & not another so mayor Putz will have it erased at night in the near future.
Or use city resources to paint & protect a MAGA mural.
He'll kill himself first.

Tear down a statue you don't like, ok. Loot and pillage stores, ok. Burn down sections building that you don't like, ok. Assault police, first responders, innocent bystanders, ok. Burn police vehicles, ok. Do all of these things in NYC and you get out of jail free with the Mayor's and DA's blessings and no charges. But dare to even look sideways at the BLM defacement of the streets or disagree with them..... they throw the book at you. Welcome to DeBlasio's New York!

You can pay them all the overtime you want to, de Blabbio, but they are still New York cops and they are still failing at whatever job they are assigned, probably on purpose since you obviously have no respect for them nor they for you. By the time they fetch their coffee and donuts and find a suitable place to park, a lot of spray paint can be applied.

Maybe it's the police making the street look better. In comrade DeBlowhard's mindset, it's could be like the fox guarding the hen house.

Given the way Wilhelm had treated the NYPD, they should deface the graffiti themselves.

The cops should look the other way.

Baby De Blasio cares more about his spiteful "mural" than he does about the New Yorkers who adore him.
