"you can’t be both pro-cop and pro-black if you’re part of the BLM movement. BLM is explicitly anti-cop and, if you think anything else, you’re just not listening to them."


Black Lives Matter Leader:

Can anyone really get elected to a city council much less mayor, running on a platform to defund the police?

The people themselves won't do it and taxes are allocated for police.


Eliminate the police and tell everyone to call the Sheriff.

Defund them. Why anyone thinks that armed government thugs working for the interests of the State is a good idea is beyond me. I'd much rather my money went to a protection force that served my interest, not the State's.

Much like the 'No-go" zones that Muslim communities have in some countries. They do their own "policing".

If black lives mattered, they'd be shooting the thugs and drug dealers, not the police...
