He and his dad were notorious slum lords, and racist towards Black and other minorities who could afford to live in one of his fancy buildings, he launched the a blistering attack on the so-called Central Park five that put them away for years caused racial tension to sky rocket he is as much hated in Blk communities as Al Sharpton is among whites , only he have money.
And Sharpton doesn't? How many poor people owe over 4 million in back taxes and drive a Rolls Royce Phantom? Sharpton has made a career out of causing racial tension.

Ignoring freedom of speech for a moment.
It was aggravated assault by multiple people on an individual. Each and every one of them broke the law and depending on the state can even get felony charges for it.
Last I checked inappropriate dress is not a crime. Aggravated Assault however is. Each and every single person involved in this is by definition a criminal, and should have charges pressed on them, with a risk of possible jail time, fines and a mark on their record.
Let's say the guy is an inconsiderate idiot. That's not a crime. There are, however, clear criminals here.

And that's why BLM is failing so horribly.

And this IS working? Ha, all that this has accomplished is pushing more and more people away with each incident. Even within the community it supposedly represents.
The ONLY way this helps is if another similar group comes to the forefront that actually does peace marching right and stands in direct contrast to BLM. BLM is tainted completely at this point, there is no coming back. They can however be the violent contrast to a group that acts in the way of MLK and his methods. In that way they can serve a vital function.
