Elderly Jewish man confronts vandal for ripping down Trump flag. But the crook just comes back and destroys another one.



And the Trump flag hits just keep on coming.

Surveillance video caught a vandal ripping down a flag supporting President Donald Trump on Thursday night that had been hanging from a residential balcony in the Crown Heights neighborhood of Brooklyn, CrownHeights.Info reported.

The outlet said video caught the same person returning about an hour later to destroy a second Trump flag hanging from the same balcony.

What are the details?

Video shows the vandal wearing a dark-colored hoodie, gray pants, and a mask on the sidewalk in front of the balcony around 7:15 p.m. CrownHeights.info said he was taking photos of the residence before announcing himself as a delivery man and entering the building — but he wasn't let inside the apartment.

Then the vandal reached up and ripped down the first Trump flag hanging from the balcony.

An elderly Jewish man was passing by and confronted the vandal, but the crook didn't appear concerned in the least.

And when the man walked away, the vandal pulled out his phone and appeared to record video of him — and then he stomped on the Trump flag.

About an hour later, video shows the vandal coming back for more.

As two females sat on the steps next door, the vandal grabbed a long piece of wood with nails protruding from the end and used it to rip and tear at a second Trump flag hanging from the same balcony.

The females ran up the steps in apparent fear, and the vandal tossed the long piece of wood in apparent exultation after destroying the second Trump flag.

CrownHeights.info said the residence was targeted previously in an act of vandalism over its "Trump pride."

Here are the clips showing the separate acts of vandalism:

The hits just keep on coming

Pro-Trump flags and banners appear to be triggering all sorts of strange behavior of late as the presidential election draws closer:

Mother punched through SUV window by unhinged leftist who didn't like her Trump flags — all while victim's daughter, 11, watches from back seat



Leftists continue to lose their minds — or believe they can get away with blatant violence — in public places full of surveillance cameras.

What are the details?

Police in Fall River, Massachusetts, said a mother was driving with her 11-year-old daughter in the area of South Main and Hall streets last week when two women in another vehicle apparently didn't take too kindly to the mom's flags supporting President Donald Trump that were flying off both sides of her SUV, WHDH-TV reported.

Police provided the station with surveillance video showing the initial part of the confrontation, as the Trump supporter's vehicle is within the yellow oval on the left side of the screen while an arrow points at the suspects seated in a vehicle on the right side of the screen:

The women pulled up to the victim's vehicle, exchanged words about the flags, and then violently assaulted her — as her daughter looked on from the back seat, Fall River Police Lt. Jay Huard told the station.

"[The mom] was trying to attempt to de-escalate the situation by telling the two females to get away from her car," Huard added to WHDH. "She put her window down to ... communicate in a better fashion, and at that point she was punched through the open window."

Police shared a surveillance image showing the suspects fleeing the scene in a gray Nissan Altima, the station said.

'We need respect'

Concerned resident Jessica Spauone told WHDH she's outraged by the incident: "I hope they find them. That is so rude and disrespectful, and they should pay for what they did."

She added to the station that "we need respect. People have lost that humanity; we need that again. People need to bond together and learn how to love each other."

Huard told WHDH his department has been responding to an increasing number of crimes related to the presidential election.

"I would just say maintain your composure," he added to the station. "Everybody is entitled to their own opinion, and let your voice be at the polls."

Brown University researcher claims pro-Trump signs, American flags 'scare' and 'traumatize' black people



Carycruz Bueno, a postdoctoral research associate at Brown University's Annenberg Institute, has gone viral after complaining that Trump 2020 flags — and even American flags — strike fear in the hearts of black people in America.

Bueno made the remarks on social media, where they soon went viral.

What are the details?

As highlighted by Campus Reform, Bueno — an economics researcher — said that she recently stayed at a Maine AirBnB that, very disconcertingly, had Trump signs in the yard.

Bueno added that AirBnB clearly "doesn't understand the trauma" black people experience in seeing such Trump signs.

Bueno described the experience — which she said left her "immediately scared" — she had when renting a property with her husband.

She explained that when she arrived at the rental — a privately owned property over which AirBnB has no control — she saw "Trump signs and other white nationalist symbols."

Bueno said that the display immediately made her "terrified and scared" for her life and her family's safety.

"Disappointed @airBnB doesn't understand the trauma of TRUMP signs on a @airbnb rental causes black person," she wrote, according to the outlet.

Bueno said she contacted AirBnB, but the company, predictably, said their hands were tied in the matter, as the residence is privately owned.

She then went on to blast the company for being "only words and no action" and called for a "greenbook version of AirBnB" so persons of color would not have to "pay to feel uncomfortable and scared."

Elsewhere during her Twitter rant, Bueno recalled the top five symbols that strike fear in the hearts of black people.

The list includes items such as KKK hoods and the Confederate flag, but also lists the American flag.

"[Y]es, this is a symbol used in many places to scare black people," she insisted.

What else?

In a statement, Brown University Students for Trump President Emma Rae Phillips told Campus Reform that she is "disappointed" in Bueno's remarks.

Phillips — an economics major — said that the researcher's tweets "do not seem to show much understanding of how free markets work."

Phillips added, "American flags and Trump signs are not racist in any way, shape, or form."

At the time of this reporting, Bueno's Twitter feed settings have been set to private.

Vandal burns Montana family's Trump flags on their lawn, with their 4 kids sleeping inside just feet away



A family in Montana says that a man nearly set their home on fire with their four children sleeping inside when he burned their Trump 2020 flags.

Julia O'Rourke and Robert O'Rourke told MTN News that they had hung up the two large Trump 2020 flags on the same night they were vandalized.

"It's insane!" said Julia while surrounded by her four young children.

"It could burn our house down!" said one of her children.

The family says they awoke the next day to find ashes in a mound outside their home on the grass. When they checked their surveillance video, they saw the recording of a man ripping down their flags and lighting them on fire.

"It was only about 20 feet from our front porch," said Julia. "None of us knew! We woke up to a charred pile of flag in our yard, and had no idea."

The video showed a man staggering away after lighting the flags on fire.

"I felt violated," said Julia. "I felt that my kids and my life and my husbands life were in danger. It could have easily burned my house down. There was a fire burn and as close as it was to the house, it was very eerie."

Police cited a man identified as Eric Herrera with misdemeanor criminal mischief over the incident.

"Our house was built in 1907, it's old. It's never been redone, it could have went up so fast, and we never would have known," Julia added.

The Montana Republican Party took notice of the story and posted it to their official social media account.

"This Montana family had their #Trump2020 flags burned in their yard as their children slept," they tweeted.

"The liberal mob isn't just in cities across the country, it's right here in Montana and it's threatening the safety of freedom-loving Montanans," they concluded.
