The Philadelphia GOP is calling for the firing of assistant city solicitor Duncan Lloyd after surveillance video showed the man filming another man vandalizing a grocery store by spray painting the phrase "f--k Trump" on the stone wall. Lloyd was wearing a blazer and an ascot and was sipping wine during the crime, which prompted the chairman of the Republican Party in Philadelphia to call it "perhaps the most bourgeois sight imaginable."
The pair was captured on a surveillance camera:

Neither person has been arrested for the vandalism, which is estimated as causing $3,000-$10,000 in damage to the grocery store.
Honestly, a lawyer should know better than to videotape someone graffiti-ing a wall. While I understand that some supporters of Hillary Clinton are having a rough time accepting the results of the election, getting wasted in public and spray painting profanity is not an appropriate way to deal with the disappointment. Come on.
