Tar and feathers next?

Aaron Schlossberg, the lawyer caught on video demanding that restaurant workers stop speaking Spanish and threatening a federal immigration raid to have employees “kicked out of my country,” is a piece of dirt on the Statue of Liberty’s size-879 sandals. The city is not only within its rights to ostracize him; it’s our collective responsibility to do so, to help preserve the diverse and tolerant climate that makes New York New York.

A bigot like this should squirm. After enough cold stares, he will hopefully be driven to rethink things, gain a little humility and apologize to those he so callously intimidated and insulted.

But where does it get us, the tolerant majority, to try to strip away a man’s livelihood and run him out of town on a rail — essentially kicking him out of our “country”?

Rep. Adriano Espaillat and Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz filed a formal displinary grievance letter with the New York State Unified Court System. Diaz told the Washington Post that he wants Schlossberg to be disciplined, suspended or disbarred.

Let Schlossberg’s clients punish him if they like by taking their business elsewhere. We don’t need elected officials telling people they’re too obnoxious to practice law.
