Michael Brown’s 2014 death sparked mass riots in Ferguson, Missouri
Rep. Cori Bush, a member of the progressive “Squad” group in the House, was widely panned by conservatives this week after posting a tribute to Michael Brown that blamed racism and White supremacy for his death.
“Today is the 9th anniversary of Mike Brown’s killing,” Bush tweeted on Wednesday. “He would be alive today if the institutions of racism and white supremacy were eradicated. He should be alive today. We will never forget. We will continue to fight for justice and accountability.”
The tweet was immediately blasted on social media by those pointing out more details of the incident, including the fact that Brown robbed a convenience store, physically assaulted a police officer and tried to grab his gun before ultimately being killed by that officer.
He didn’t rob a convenience store, he shoplifted a bag of chips. The claim he tried to grab the cop’s gun was argued against by literally every witness, and only came from the arresting officer himself in his desperate attempt to justify the shooting.
You been watching way too much cnn.
CNN defended the cop for weeks, even after it was discovered he had years of misconduct claims against him.
He stole from the store and assaulted a store employee in the process. Then tried to disarm a police officer with fatal results to himself. Synopsis of the facts.
Bush is a race card gold level holder; that’s all she contributes; gas on the fire just to stir her mob.
She is the most racist bitch that ever walked the earth.
