Members of the “Squad” are ramping up calls for dismantling the police following the shooting death of a 20-year-old black man at the hands of a white officer in Minnesota — saying it amounts to “government-funded murder.”
In tweets Monday, Reps. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.), Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.) and Ayanna Pressley (D-Mass.) reacted to the killing Sunday of Daunte Wright of Brooklyn Center, Minn.
“It wasn’t an accident. Policing in our country is inherently & intentionally racist. Daunte Wright was met with aggression & violence,” Tlaib wrote in a tweet.
“I am done with those who condone government-funded murder. No more policing, incarceration, and militarization. It can’t be reformed,” she continued, reiterating her position that the police, as currently trained, cannot protect their communities and must be defunded and replaced.
“We are sick and heartbroken. In the closing days of Derek Chauvin’s murder trial, Brooklyn Center police killed 20 year old Daunte Wright, another Black man, during a traffic stop,” Omar’s tweet began, referencing the white officer facing trial for killing George Floyd, an unarmed black man whose death last year sparked a summer of racial justice protests — and calls to defund the police.
I agree with her. All Police should be abolished immediately!
Eastern Shore Maryland Delegate Sheree Sample-Hughes loves the Police!
Sheriff Mikey, “Where is my retirement badge with credentials?”
Ask people who want the police abolished if they want private security abolished as well. Talib wants NO force for you but ALL force for her. She wants all white Christian straight men to die.
This whole thing is a staged fraud. Search/watch the bodycam vids. The male officer is taking the cuffs off of him and tells him not to move. Female officer screams taser {supposedly shoots him} there are no shots fired, no recoil of the pistol, no cycling of the action/slide of the pistol, no blood anywhere….. whats really going on here? This entire incident is staged, a false flag…to brainwash you? to add fuel to the fires? to assist in destroying our Constitutional Rights?
Go watch it again. Please wake up people before its too late. Our entire government, even leo’s have become the criminals, corrupt to the core.
Hey Towel Head
this is America
not Pakistan
don’t like it here girlfriend
move out , and take Eastern Shore Opiate Prescription Democrats with you.
Maybe the police need to pull a “traffic stop “ on the members of the “squad “8
She is so right. I stand with her.
You mean you kneel with her.
These three have it in mind to make us more vulnerable to violence, not less, while wholly ignoring every other instance of death by violence across the country. Their aim is to weaken society so that its shreds can be assembled into a government run state, from cradle to grave, a government that never succeeds in anything but misery and deprivation, not human rights or personal responsibility.
Well most of us would like her abolished also but will that happen to the loudmouth, not likely.
If only they were in front of a squad.
