| 2020-05-12 |
| [IS National News] Two people were arrested for allegedly ripping face masks off of identifiably Jewish people in the Williamsburg neighborhood of Brooklyn in New York City. The suspects have not yet been identified or been charged, NBC New York reported Monday morning. The couple were later identified as Paulo Pinho, 35, and his wife, Clelia Pinho, 46, of Queens. They were arrested on a charge of aggravated harassment as a hate crime, the New York Post reported. They stopped their car after noticing a group of hasidic Jews on the corner, and got out while shouting what police described as anti-Semitic slurs, and complaining that many were not wearing masks or practicing appropriate social distancing. They then tried to remove the face masks of several men. |

| #5 Those look like Portuguese names... But according to another article I saw, the Karens had called 911 on the neighbourhood twice that day, then drove in looking for trouble. Got roughed up a bit in the process of being arrested, though whether that was the work of the neighbourhood volunteer guards or the police was not clear. |

| #4 Crown Heights and surrounding areas have long been Ground Zero for black anti-semites. That's where Sharpton incited his anti-Semitic mob following to stage pogroms back in the 1980s |
