BLM Mural coming to 5th Avenue

[Deleted User 1616]

Not going to lie, that neon yellow is such an eyesore. renaming Street signs looks a lot classier if you insist on forcing your beliefs down other people's throats. I think its weird that democrats are normalizing spending tax payer dollars on political ads.

Imagine the outcry if republicans did this with a pro life/anti abortion message on a public street.

It simply says black lives matter. How is that forcing someone's beliefs down their throat. Who doesn't agree that they matter? And the paint is temporary. It won't be there forever.

oh really, then if you're against the patriot act you're not a patriot, if you oppose Pro Life messaging, you're for death, if you're against Executive Order 13769, titled Protecting the Nation from Foreign Terrorist Entry into the United States (Travel Ban) you're just a terrorist who wants america harmed.

Give me a break, BLM is a Marxist group,, they are clearly aligned with the democrats. the demands they have made have nothing to do with black lives or police brutality. The fact the left thinks painting BLM on 5th ave is an attack against Trump only supports this is a partisan movement. Just look at their twitter feed and you can clearly see its partisan, so much so they are tweeting to Biden to choose a black female VP, almost like BLM is a partisan Dem group, they retweet far left people, groups and politicians:

Streets painted like this is idiotic. Memorials to represent us demolishing slavery and starting civil rights is good. Memorializing a terrorist organization is idiotic

You think the confederate statues are memorials to represent us demolishing slavery and starting civil rights?

You seriously believe BLM is not a terrorist organization?

You can never answer a question, lol.

Good point!

Why not an actual mural on an approved wall or building that isn't going to be driven over, snow and rain ruining the design of over the years (I've been to NYC multiple times and many of the streets are in dire need of repaving and road work), and that won't eventually wear down due to foot and car traffic? That people can actually enjoy seeing vs walking/driving over for a very short amount of time?

Some murals are absolutely beautiful and insane works of art. THIS will not do what a mural on a wall or building could do IMO.

I get the point, however, if it's being done in front of Trump Tower as many still believe the man is a racist.

I suppose whatever drives them....

I know, I said his Tweet was confusing. He said they shouldn’t paint that symbol of hate on the street. That the police would get upset. Did he think they were going to print that hateful chant?

Are you really that dense or just playing dumb?

I am sure to some BLM brings back memories of that slogan. Right now BLM has stayed they want to defund the police. I dare say if they could get away with it they would completely do away with police altogether. That could be construed as hateful to some.

So the Black Lives Matter name will trigger some people into reliving painful memories of a protest. Especially our very delicate policemen. Ok.

My mistake, I guess you really are that dense.

Meh. Trump Tower is an eyesore too. So ostentatious. At least is not as tacky and middle age crisis as his Vegas hotel, lol. So it’s not like it would make it worse.

It looks like every other skyscraper in NYC, and his hotel fits right in to the rest of "ostenatious" building in vegas. if you're saying modern architecture is ugly in general, I agree.





Still not as ugly as highlighter yellow streets and not payed for with tax dollars.

[Momto2boys973]

If you say so. Both eye sores to me
Put that picture of the middle life crisis in the daytime, lol. It screams “since I can’t cover my penis in gold, I’ll do it to a building!”. Both will be yuuuugeee!

I think the temporary nature of the painting on the street gives hope that the movement will not last forever in that there will be substantial change by the time that paint is worn through.

You can be against anything you want. You might think the organization is out of control and does a terrible job and are going about it all wrong but to say the organization is against your beliefs says a lot.

And comparing the Patriot Act to an organization created and funded by citizens doesn't make sense.
