We wish Mr. Moranis a quick recovery. We will find his attacker. These attacks get attention when the victim is a celebrity but all NYers deserve to walk the street in safety. @HelenRosenthal & her @NYCCouncil colleagues are failing their constituentshttps://t.co/9E3rTft9vI

With Blasio at the helm, who ya’ gonna’ call?
Skin color not mentioned so definitely not white.
the video shows him not white
When I read “by a large individual” I was certain of the race.
What a quandary for the liberal leftists….gee maybe the white guy was a Trump supporter and “deserved” it so let’s bury this story ASAP.
victim was white & thug was black….how can we ignore this story??????
This scenario happens much more frequently than the white goofballs on the left and also in the media would EVER admit to!!!!!!
This thug is huge and they usually chose their victims as women or men who are not large individuals. This is a great example of the what CRT puts into weak minded heads and they know they cannot be punished what with a communist Mayor. Maybe the thug will menace the wrong person and wind up eating lead someday.
Just another animal roaming the concrete jungle. Time to hire hunters!
And issue tags.
The armpit of America, New York Syhaty.
De Blasio better put the money back in the police funding before it is gonna be his arse that gets beat up instead of some other innocent being! It is his fault!
You can bet that De Blasio has some of the best protection that taxpayer money can buy.
New York City has become Hell on earth. Mayor Bill de Blasio is absolutely destroying the greatest city in America. Other US cities have dysfunctional, despicable mayors, but de Blasio is worst of the worst. It is like de Blasio is trying to destroy the city – and succeeding!
Awwww, just another ni66a out having some harmless fun.
They will find the attacker and then put him on zero bail and release him or some Hollywood actors will post bail for him so he can go assault someone else. No wonder he is wearing an “I Love NY” hoodie, where else can he assault freely, or is that called another peaceful protest?
Two words – – “Get out”.
Leave NYC now before you’re the next victim.
NYC, once known as the wonderful city of lights & the great city that never sleeps, is now a filthy, crime-ridden, God-forsaken cesspool.
another coward punk
blm only when it is a white cop who kills one of the career criminal but this big black dude can punch out this little actor for no reason. The public is getting to see what the black are really like with all of the killing, burning, looting, stealing and all the rest they are doing and have been for years. It was never shown on television like it is being shown now due to BLM , Antifa and g. soros people. The cops have known this for years because they have had to deal with it as have the decent black Americans. People better wake up and vote for the right man if not you haven’t seen anything yet.
I hope they find the perp. What if the thug would have orphaned Moranis’ children? These street attacks are never punished and usually it is not their first attack. They need to be removed from normal society until they learn to behave.
