The "Black Lives Matter" mural on Manhattan's Fifth Avenue directly in front of Trump Tower -- a project President Donald Trump blasted as a "symbol of hate" -- has been defaced with a large splash of red paint.I'm going to bet that the NYPD is going to put their version of Inspector Clouseau on it, some guy who is one screwup away from going on the Rubber Gun Squad.
Photos and videos posted to social media at lunchtime Monday showed red paint all over the letters "liv" in Lives. One video, obtained by News 4, shows a person dressed in dark colors and hat, dump a single can of paint across the mural before running away; the NYPD is investigating.
The City repainted it in short order.

Your side started it, Comrade.
I keep saying this to your crowd but you won't listen: if you keep on the road you are on, and doing the things you do... welp, if you don't like Trump, just wait until you see the next guy.
I notice you have carefully avoided any mention of that white 24 year old mother that got killed for saying "All lives matter". You are damned lucky our guys are showing such restraint.
So a mention of no complaints about vandalism from the people who have been complaining about vandalism is now a left wing conspiracy, per our resident intel. Now we wait for, “But, Benghazi...” and “it’s just the flu”.
Rushed it, forgot to mention that Glen’s side started it, look at the number of times the Emmett Till plaque has been replaced.
Just keep thinkin' that filth, you just keep thinkin' that.
Hye, sauce for the goose and all that.
I think it is wrong, both the defacing of the mural AND the destruction of monuments.
But if yer gonna take the gloves off, don't whine when your opponent does the same.
'Twas the left that decided to change the rules.
As CP88 noted, B, go see how many times the historical marker for Emmett Till has been vandalized.
Right. Restraint from the side that likes to execute cowardly hit-and-run attacks. Or beat people up in parking garages.
Some restraint your side has shown, there.
(By the way, what is “Canadian restraint”? Strongly worded letters to the paper?)
Monuments to traitors like Generals Lee and Stonewall Jackson, B?
Funny how there are no monuments to Hitler in Germany, or General Pétain in France. Why is that?
Not so, Comrade. “My side” doesn’t deface monuments. Or beat people up in back alleys, because that ain’t right either. “My side” goes to church on Sundays. We help the less fortunate and we build communities rather than tearing them down. On Saturday we mow the lawn and wash the car. We used to kick back afterward, maybe crack a beer and watch the football game, back before the sanctimonious millionaire blacks started insulting us and accusing us of oppressing them, and turning the NFL into a human flea circus.
And that brings us back to why you are either going to stop or be stopped, with force if necessary: because it’s always okay when YOU do it. It’s okay when one of your mobs murders a 24 year old mom who doesn’t think the right way. It’s okay to tear down a gate and go in to the community to terrorize the occupants. It’s okay for you to make false accusations, and use vigilante justice to settle scores. My daughter is a militant gay SJW, I know how you people roll. You won’t listen until you get hurt, and then you’ll sob and moan about being victimized and bullied. Been there with you people, done that, bought the tee shirt.
So I’ll tell ya how this goes. Here’s the deal you are gonna get: shut the hell up, behave yourselves, or you’ll get Trump for another 4 years. If you burn down your cities in your states, it will be on you, it will be your mess and you will deal with it. If you want to be stupid about it, hey - the boogaloo is now on the table and if you choose it, the result will be that guy that makes Trump look like a saint. And lord have mercy on your souls if you intend suspend inconvenient laws and rules to spike the next election.
For the record I am not happy about any of this either. But hey...make your mistake I guess. At this point, my side is sick of your guff and will do something about it if you keep it up.
Come down here and tell me to my face, mighty mouth, to shut the hell up. I'm looking forward to the lynching. Killing NAZIs is a proud American tradition.
Herr Filthie, go look at the convictions that came out of the Tiki-Torch Nazis March in 2017 and then get back to us.
Go look at the shootings at churches and synagogues and get back to us.
Go look at the rise in hate crimes and get back to us.
You have a particularly good set of blinders on.
And so our little Canadian Muammar Gaddafi draws a line in the Gulf of Sidra and dares us to cross it. Let’s, once again, dissect his blather:
“‘my side’ doesn’t deface monuments” - False, see comments above for one, simple example. You can also review “Square, Tiananmen - 1989” to see how Glen’s side reacts.
“(Doesn’t) beat people up on back alleys” - Hilariously false, although there is a pretty good argument they prefer using automobiles.
“church on Sundays” - So, that Rules out those nasty Catholics, a bunch of Jews, a number of variant Christians, and most other religions and the non-religious. Clearly false because most of the things he claims credit for were created or built by people not in this “category”.
“help the less fortunate” - Charitable giving and volunteering is larger in the religious community than the non-religious because money given TO the church or entity is credited as charity even when given for operations. Also, people you ruled out, Sikhs and Jews, out give you lot.
“build (vs) tear down” - Tulsa, OK; Colgate, LA; Wilmington, NC; Atlanta, GA; Elaine, AR; Rosewood, FL...just for a sample.
The rest of the first paragraph is typical KKK claptrap and racist dogwhistles.
So, now we are on the the “24 year old mom”. So she’s in a group using racist language, they get into a confrontation with another group, BOTH groups pull guns, talk and then split up and leave. A few minutes later an unknown person shoots at her group, while her group fires too...no one has verified who shot first, but bigger that doesn’t fit Glen’s narrative.
“tear down a gate” - No evidence showing it was done by protestors, and the St. Louis prosecutor is looking into vandalism charges against the lawyers who were waving guns in this case, whoops, doesn’t match Glen’s narrative.
“terrorize the occupants” - All video located shows the occupants trying to terrorize peaceful walkers and no response to the gun-toting lawyer until they started threatening to shoot people no pt on their property. Charges pending, 0 for 3, Glen.
“false accusations...vigilante justice” - Hum, right out of the Nazi playbook, I wonder which side might be doing this...Charlottesville anyone?
“I know how you people roll” - His kid isn’t following his instructions and so his feelings are hurt and he rails against the world. Then he proceeds the threaten and promise retaliation and war, death and destruction....some builder, eh? Then the Canuck Gaddafi draws another line in the sand, daring us to cross it.
Look Comrade - I know you can do this all day long standing on your head. Your mouthpieces in the mass media have been doing it for four years and they are full of chit too. Why not just wipe and call it a chit? It’s clear that in your mind, you have the moral justification to burn, loot, rape and murder. As for us, we aren’t buying your fake news, fake grievances, and your fake hate crimes. You cannot possibly be this misinformed. Why don’t you save everyone a bunch of time, and put your rifle where your mouth is?
Are you afraid my side will do the same? I can guarantee you they will. Now would be a really good time for you to stop and think, because a lot of you are a short stone’s throw of getting seriously hurt.
I’ll just leave it at that, flame away, kids.
Glen, your paranoia is only exceeded by your lack of training with a firearm. Or do you think that the Canadian government would hesitate to drone you and your fellow rabble if you did try something?
Wow, so much to unpack, and yet, so little truth from either side. Two people with guns, protecting their home, have charges pressed against them. Ok, but why did the police take their firearms away from them before any charges were pressed against them? Kind of like the police think you hit someone with your car, so they take your car, and later decide to press charges against you.
The problem with that case is, it is almost an open and shut case of acquittal, based upon legal precedent. It may not even make it to trial.
Why is it called a mural when BLM paints on a public road, but graffiti when a different group paints over it, and the city itself redoes the " mural" at public cost? Could a group that supports freedom for all paint next to the BLM on the street, that " All Lives Matter" and expect the city to protect that Mural as well?
One other thing, in Missouri, they have a very strong stand your ground law, meaning that if you are in a place where you have a legal right to be, such as both on your own property, or in public, you have no requirement to retreat, but you are able to stand your ground, and to defend your life and property with lethal force, if necessary. That is not a license to kill, but it is a license to protect your life, and your home and property,with guns, if called for. I have no doubt that this case will attract the best legal defense available from around the nation, pro bono, as it is such an important challenge to the 2nd amendment, and there are many lawyers who support the 2nd amendment.
Dark Avenger,you refer to Canada attacking Glen if they find him to be trying something. Bring your example to America. We have a much more sophisticated military than does Canada. Yet I would be willing to bet a significant amount of money, if I were a betting man, which I am not, that the American government could not defeat an uprising by the conservatives in this country. If you disagree, I will merely point out a couple of examples. Look to Vietnam, and how the North Vietnamese were able to rout both the French, the Japanese before them,and the Americans after them. Afghanistan, with held the USSR for 8 years, before they left in disgust. The U.S. has been fighting in the mountains there for almost 2 decades,with a few wins, but no real gains made. Fighting against a bunch of goat herders.
America is full of people who were raised up using guns as a part of their lives,and many millions of them are former military people, trained as warriors. And a very large percentage of those in the military now would refuse to follow an illegal order such as fire on their own countrymen. I know that when my son was spending 6 and a half years in the military, he told me that his entire unit would refuse an illegal order, which is what they swore to when they entered the military.
The truth that I see is that when the November election is over, no matter who wins,the other side will be angry enough to start a war, possibly a fighting war, and America as we know it will be history.

PP51, those BLM murals on city roads have been painted there by the cities themselves. That means that they are not graffiti, they were painted, often by the city's road crews, with full authorization.
If you think that Missouri allows the use of deadly force to prevent trespassing, then you are sadly misinformed. The state also does not allow the use of deadly force to stop property damage.
LE often serve search warrants to look for the instrumentality of a crime before charges are brought. Trump whined about the FBI searching Cohen's office and Manafort's house. There was nothing untoward about the search of the McCloskey's house for the guns that were used and, if they had other guns, they weren't taken.
ComradeMisfit,
I am afraid that it seems that you are mistaken about the use of deadly force to stop property damage. From what I was able to find,in a fairly quick search, showed that Missouri does indeed allow for the use of deadly force in the case of fear of damage to your property, plus to the self defense, if you fear that someone is intending to invade your "castle", thus it is called the castle doctrine.
Missouri’s “castle doctrine” is in the spotlight following a confrontation between protesters and gun-toting St. Louis homeowners that was shared in viral videos.
The doctrine is a self-defense law allows someone to use physical force when they believe it’s necessary to stop what they think is “stealing, property damage or tampering in any degree.” Missouri’s law gives individuals protecting their property more leeway compared to many states and permits the use of deadly force in cases where the person believes they or others are at risk of death, serious injury or other crime, according to Findlaw.com.
