If the headline was, "For the sake of boosting their own egos, Guardian Angels assault the first Latino man they see," it would still be one of the least surprising things I've ever read.

Everyone wants to feel important, valuable, like they are contributing.
Turns out the easiest way to feel important is to declare yourself the area's protector, no qualifications needed except your willingness to use violence. Now you're important and every who isn't a libcuck should appreciate you and thank you for your service.
None of these guys would ever dream of providing value to their communities by bringing a broom and garbage bag with them to clean the streets. No, they're above that.
What? Do you expect them to bring narcan everywhere just so they can do something as mundane as saving a neighbor’s life despite them being a drug addict? Or for them to talk to their neighbors about what they need instead of just deciding themselves? It’s not like they’re gonna stoop so low as to start picking up groceries for elderly neighbors
The man is not a “migrant” but rather a New Yorker from the Bronx, police said Wednesday afternoon. Though Sliwa claimed the man had been caught shoplifting, police provided no evidence to support the allegation.
Sounds like a pretty cut and dry case of defamation. Fox News needs more eight-figure payouts to learn its lesson I guess?
“He was put down so he wouldn’t hurt himself or anyone else,” said Sliwa, who has admitted in the past that he has fabricated stories of criminal behavior to sensationalize the issue of immigration.
They've done the guy a favor. You see, he's going to be rich after suing them for every penny they have.
I hope he sues Silwa and the Angels to bankrupt them and send their organization into collapse. I also hope he sues Hannity and Fox for defamation.
Huh, seems really interesting that it happened during a live interview. And that guy seems really non-surprised that it happened.
I'm sure it's totally real.

Pretty sure he pulled a very similar stunt with a homeless man when he was running for mayor.
