Protestor William Talen arrested for criminal trespassing and disorderly conduct in NYC Central Park's Samaritan’s Purse.

William Talen, charlatan.

A protester donning a pink suit and bandana mask was arrested Sunday afternoon at a COVID-19 field hospital in New York City's Central Park that is being run by an evangelical group whose leader has a long history of anti-LGBTQ beliefs.

They have no business being in New York City,” the protester, William Talen, 69, shouted as six New York City Police Department officers, one of whom appeared to be carrying Talen’s rainbow flag, removed him from the park. “They are the virus.

The 68-bed field hospital is run by Samaritan’s Purse, an evangelical Christian humanitarian organization run by Franklin Graham, son of the late Rev. Billy Graham.

Samaritan’s Purse is working with the Mount Sinai Health System, a New York City hospital network, to address the overflow of patients due to the coronavirus pandemic. In a statement emailed to NBC News on Monday, a Mount Sinai spokesperson said all staff within its hospital system, including the Samaritan’s Purse field hospital, “will adhere” to Mount Sinai’s “principles and guidelines when it comes to not discriminating against patients or staff.”
He has a long record of being disruptive and a public nuisance. Here's just one example.

Talen...simply another attention-seeking clown and member of the Loud Crowd, like Brad Hoylman, claiming to embrace tolerance, acceptance, diversity and kindness yet personally devoid of these values and qualities.
