A massive yellow mural spelling “Black Lives Matter” was painted In the middle of 5th Avenue between 56th and 57th Street in the shadow of Trump Tower, Thursday morning.
Joining the organizers to fill in the yellow paint, was the Socialist NYC Mayor, Bill DeBlasio. He was joined by “Reverend” Al Sharpton, one of the biggest anti-Semites NYC has ever seen.
Responding to President Trump’s remarks last week where he said a Black Lives Matter mural will denigrate the luxury of 5th Ave, DeBlasio said the mural is “liberating 5th Avenue… we are uplifting 5th Avenue”.
For those that are unaware, or need a reminder, Shaprton is the rabid anti-Semite, who fueled the Crown Heights riots 27 years ago that ended with the murder of Yankel Rosenbaum HY”D.
Twenty-seven years ago a tragic car accident in Crown Heights Brooklyn escalated into a pogrom against the Jewish people. The media usually gives it a politically correct description: “violence between the area’s Blacks and Jews.” But the violence was not two-sided. The Crown Heights riot was an attack on the Jews by the neighborhood’s Caribbean community, fueled in large part by Al Sharpton, the “Reverend” who does not believe in the commandment about “bearing false witness.”
Yesterday, DeBlasio said the prominent display will send a message that “Black lives, in fact, do matter.”
“That Black people built New York City, that they’ve never been compensated for all they did, that all the mistakes, the sins, everything in American history that has afflicted Black people have not been accounted for and must be accounted for – something he does not understand,” he said last month. “So it is right to take the eyes of the world, the attention of the world right there on Fifth Avenue and focus on Black Lives Matter.”
This is the latest BLM mural across the five boroughs. Others have already been painted in Harlem, Staten Island and Brooklyn.

when trump wins th election again, they will get rid of this garbage
Why don;t these two hypocrite Marxist Democrats paint this message on the streets of Chicago with red paint where it is more appropriate.
Black Lives Matter means getting rid of the Anti-crime unit so you count more Black deaths do to violence. I’m surprised he hasn’t figured out yet how to blame all the violent crime on the Jews. Maybe that’s why he’s consulting Sharpton so together they configure a way to blame the Jews.
cant cry, cant laugh , Good for Kindergarten babies, pure political licking
If de Blasio really cared about Black lives [which he doesn’t] he would be dedicating his time to agressively tackling the shootings of so many black people in NYC by black people , and not with some childish stupid painting.
mamish crank in kop
I think the askanim in brooklyn should get together and paint a BLM in front of grace mansion. Lets see then what this mayor has to say about it
Don Lemon of CNN in his capacity of spokesman for BLM or as a national journalist (whose assertion was not repudiated by the BLM) made it clear to Terry Crews that the BLM does not speak for black lives per se, only a subsection of black lives. The BLM does not support the distraught black woman whose business was destroyed in the Bronx. The BLM does support those who destroyed it. The BLM does not speak for the man who was shot to death crossing the street with his six year old son, but it does support those who shot him. The BLM does not speak for the woman who had a gun held to her pregnant belly, but it does support the black man who held the gun to her pregnant belly. By their own admission the BLM does not speak for the decent, upstanding black community only the criminal subsection. Therefore I oppose the BLACK LOWLIFE MOVEMENT and condemn all who support this horrible cause.
Lemon ostensibly told Terry Crews if you want to support those black people ‘start your own movement.’ The BLM is a movement to advocate for black criminals in their struggle against law and order.
This is complete nonsense. I cant display a conferdate flag so my southern pride but they can paint a big black lives matter
If government sanctioned political defacement of public property is now allowed, why not paint some choice words in front of Hizzoner’s home?
De Blasio has finally found something he could do well. He can paint in between the lines. He is ready for Pre-K.
Now let’s see if he will paint it in front of his own house in liberal white Park Slope. Don’t hold your breath.
I feel weird defending Al Sharpton. However if anyone knows better please fill me in.
Yes he was terrible anti-Semite and did everything disgusting that he could against yidden.
But that was in those days, decades ago. I don’t think he’s ever apologized, but in recent years he’s been much more reasonable as far as Jewish matters are concerned. He’s even made some overtures to some of the Jewish communities.
There are plenty others in the black communities that are far worse and much more racially divisive.
To Long Island Yid. I’m assuming you’re fasting today, so as much as I want to be dan l’chaf zechus that your advocacy on behalf of the rabid Jew hater is due to your over indulging in alcoholic beverages, alas I must assume you are just ill informed at best. The allegedly Rev Al is a corrupt, slimy, unapologetic anti semite who is best buds with Loony Farakhan. Al is a thief who has lined his own pockets and that of his really expensive wardrobe with ill gotten gains. Not only has he never apologized for his past behavior, he refused to acknowledge that he did anything wrong. Tawana Brawley anyone? The man is a disgusting piece of garbage and he and Di- trashio make a great team. Way to go New Yorkers….keep voting for whatever freebies you can get. How’s that working out for you??
Did DeBlasio have a legal permit to deface public property? If I decide to paint in front of my neighbors driveway will I get in trouble? Who paid for all the paint and supplies? Where was the garbage disposed of and who paid for it? Was the paint environmentally friendly? Was there any damage to the ozone layer? Was the Mayor paid his regular salary while he was out of his office painting the streets? Is there any accountability at all in this sanctuary city? Is there a double standard being applied over here? As a taxpayer here in the City, am I allowed to ask such questions? Am I a racist?
What is he colouring? It’s already coloured!!!!

Long Island yid, don’t kid yourself, AL Sharpton is a scathing anti semite. the only reason why he is publicly more tame is because he has contracts with NBC and other media groups so he needs to tow the line. Once an anti semite always an anti semite.
WAIT! Isnt painting public property considered vandalism?
Isnt it like graffiti?
Just curios…

Who owns the street?! #FINETHEMAYOR
LI Yid. Your points are well taken. There are far worse individuals than Sharpton on the left and the right. He has moderated his views but the old issues just don’t go away for many of us. His Honor the Mayor is simple a jerk and seems to mindlessly repeat the rhetoric of the far left but lacks the intellect to articulate a coherent agenda. At least Sharpton seems to understand the implications of his words and for better or worse, seeks to find some middle ground with the Jewish Community on many issues.
To Long Island Yid
Good point but Yankel Rosenbaum HY”D might beg to differ
Notice no social distancing and some people without masks — good old hypocrite Bill.
Whats good for the goose is good for the gander.
Time to paint anti-Antisemitism murals in front of all homes and properties owned by AntiSemitic people, beginning with Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib (unfortunately there are many others). This should include all university professors nation-wide who spout anti-semitism and all Holocaust deniers! Time to invest in paint. Paint manufacturers will do great, because unfortunately theres lots of murals that need to be painted.
The mayor did it!
Black lives matter? So why do you liberals keep aborting them by hundreds of thousand a year?
Long Island Yid
Wake up
Sharpton is the same EVIL Jew hating, rabble rouser from the days of old. He just is 30+ years older and does not have the energy as those days
Do you like my t-shirt slogan?
Black lives matter!
Black gunmen disagree.
