The 6-foot statue was unveiled this summer as part of New York City's Juneteenth celebrations. It was meant to be displayed in Brooklyn for a few weeks before being moved to Manhattan, but it was vandalized days later with black spray paint and the website address of a white nationalist group.
"The NYPD said Friday it did not have any updates regarding the defacement. Read MorePolice said in June that they were checking on the whereabouts of four males in connection with the vandalism and released a video and a photo of what it said was the four walking toward the vicinity of the statue before the incident. The office of Mayor Bill de Blasio, in a tweet, described the vandalism as a"racist, loathsome, despicable act of hate."New York Gov.

Will his criminal record be attached….? Ad rather have a statue of Jimmy Saville…!!
Knock it down guy was a prick anyhows
I love the police. I think thay do a great job.
He was wrongfully killed , But he deserves no statue. He held a pregnant woman at Gunpoint.
Imagine building a statue of a guy who held a gun to a pregnant woman’s stomach while his friends robbed her house… Americans are weird
I guess a statue instead of police reform is justifiable. Modern day slavery is mental slavery. Sad!
We all should stand up for finding out the truth as to how the January 6th insurrection on our Capital happened and make all accountable! In my opinion Trump had some of the Republican Senators in on setting up the attack!
What crap! Making a drug addicted criminal a hero.
'Oh, who can take tomorrow Dip it in a dream Separate the sorrow and collect up all the cream The Candy Man Oh, the Candy Man can The Candy Man can'
I find this statue racist and we should not idolize a criminal. Just like how the confederate statues are being taken down so should this one.
only a dead nigger is a good nigger
Only In America! A career criminal that held a pregnant woman up at gunpoint could get a statue because they died after committing a crime in police custody! Let's keep the Critical Race Theory classes for kindergarten students to ensure further racial division!
Ndi AMERICA a sef...
Statues of historical figures like Columbus are being taken down thanks to unproven lies against him trying to discredit and villainize him while we wouldn't have this country if not for him, while a statue of a cop resisting felon is erected. Example of the breakdown if society
They should put statues up of all the 100s murdered by thugs and gangs each year for that matter
if it offends us can we tear it down, spray paint it and toss it in the Hudson?
Unfortunately, if the global religion hadn't been lying five centuries ago, replacing the chapters and verses that deal with salvation with fables, there wouldn't be so much misery in the world and my effort still has no effect. Help me please. WhatsApp 55 (86) 99940-4258
