A struggling actor who reportedly had tiny roles on TV shows like “Parks and Rec,” “CSI: New York,” and “That’s So Raven” has been arrested and charged for defacing a George Floyd statue in New York City.
USA Today reported that Micah Beals, 37, was charged with criminal mischief for an incident that occurred earlier this month involving the George Floyd statue. Surveillance footage from the area showed “a person on a skateboard threw gray paint on the face and base of a statue of George Floyd,” according to the New York Police Department’s hate crimes Twitter account.
Volunteers quickly gathered to remove the paint.
“They went to the hardware and bought supplies out of their own pockets,” he told CNN. “This is inspiring teamwork and support from the community.”
One of those volunteers, Harmony Seaburg, told the outlet that cleaning the statue was “very emotional” for her.
“It was really hard to see this larger-than-life man like this,” Seaburg said. “We’re trying to get all the paint off his face, but it’s very emotional.”
“One of those volunteers, Harmony Seaburg, told the outlet that cleaning the statue was ‘very emotional’ for her.”
That statement alone pegged my vomit meter. I normally read the article before I post, but I think I’ll forgo that this time.
The guy is a hero. George Floyd was a dirtbag. The ‘cleaners’ are lunatics, or they’re paid – or both.
And yet they don’t do a damn thing to the assholes that destroy statues of The Founders.
Does the statue reflect one of St. George’s finest moments as he pointed a loaded gun at he abdomen of a pregnant woman?
wasn’t george also a porn actor? at the beginning of all this i seem to remember reading that a few places……
Put this monster under the prison. Put him in a 4 by 4 room. Hate will NOT be tolerated!
The statue is already so bad it does not need any help. Floyd was killed by an overdose. Cop had nothing to do with it other than acting like a jerk.
A grenade would work better.
Larry, is there room for this guy with you in grandma’s basement?
The African community, people of color, differently differentiated by shade of skin, etc., sure do like themselves a member of said community that is a savage, thief, assaulter of women, criminal, doper, counterfeiter, and a no good scoundrel! Says a lot about them!
By the way, which one is Pink?
They need to build a life sized statue of this guy
