Mug Him Again!

There was a joke, coincidentally told first in New York City, about a liberal judge, known for being soft on criminals and giving them light sentences for crimes due to, in his mind, that they were just misunderstood victims of society.  

This judge related during a presentation on his lenient sentencing policies that he had just been mugged on the way to the same presentation.

"Not to worry", he told the approving progressive crowd, "this unfortunate mugging will not change how I rule from the bench!".

An old lady in the crowd then yelled "Mug Him Again!". 

When the Islamists threw their bombs at the Gracie Mansion, there was a similar but absolutely real display of progressive suicidal empathy.

During the demonstration,  a man, Walter Masterson, who happens to be a far-left comedian (which is kinda fitting but he's not particularly funny) with a megaphone on the pro-Islamist side of the demonstration, had in fine progressive leftist fashion just piously announced: 

"as a born and raised New Yorker, we welcome everyone into this city"

Just as he said that, "Pennsylvania teenager"  Emir Balat threw a bomb right over his head, complete with an  "Allahu Akbar" which is apparently per leftists,  Arabic for "Thank you for your welcoming feelings":

Masterson ducked. 

Has this experience changed Mr. Masterson's outlook on welcoming jihadists to the city if New York at all?

No, it has not. Instead he proudly stated the event has not changed his leftists outlook at all and he "didn’t become a xenophobic bigot” from the experience.

Thank goodness for that.

In short, he has learned nothing from it. 

An impressive display of leftist suicidal empathy. 

Maybe throw a bomb over his head again?
