-War on Police-
'We prepare to stop these murders by any means necessary.' Black Lives Matter leader declares war on police and group is 'training our people to defend our communities' in Black Panther style armed 'patrols'
2020-06-10
Police for me, but not for thee. How Black Lives Matter is training to keep Black neighbourhoods “safe“ in the mold of the Black Panther Party and Nation of Islam after community police forces are shut down, as described in this article from yesterday
[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Hawk Newsome, Chairman of BLM's Greater New York chapter, says the black rights group is 'mobilizing' its base, he told DailyMailTV in exclusive interview

  • The activist said BLM aims to develop a highly-trained 'military' arm to challenge police brutality head on in the wake of George Floyd's death in Minneapolis

  • 'It's our obligation, it's our duty to provide people with a way forward. We want the immediate end of government sanctioned murder by the police'

  • 'We prepare to stop these murders by any means necessary. We are preparing and training our people to defend our communities,' Newsome added

  • Newsome, 43, an imposing 6ft 6in, who wore shades and smoked a thick cigar for our photo shoot, believes his group can lead the 'war on police'

  • BLM will have 'Peace Officers' patrol black communities to challenge law enforcement and stop police brutality, reminiscent of the Black Panther Party

  • Newsome held a think tank in Los Angeles attended by members of the BLM Greater New York leadership and 'military advisors'

  • The meeting was held at the offices of NCredible Entertainment, owned by actor and musician Nick Cannon

  • 'We have black Special Forces officers advising us, and we will teach and train people in our communities, the Black Ops department of Black Opportunities,' he said.

#7  Useful idiots who are goaded into armed conflict with police are a tactic to further heighten the media meme of systemic racism, add turnout to the planned assault on honest elections in November. The radical socialist progressives are so far out on a limb now that they appear to be going all in with their chips. Count on the propaganda arms of social media and the MSM to plumb ever greater depths of fake news and actual lies. This is an existential next few months for the American Experiment.

#3  This might work for a weekend or two.

Kind of like the 'Nation of Islam' protection of some hot spot neighborhoods in Chicago a few years back.

The well-dressed young men got bored and left. The local bangers immediately returned to their usual festivities.

#2  I think if they wanted white flight they couldn't do a better job.

Shouldn't America re-offer one-way tickets to Liberia for BLM types?
