Rudy Giuliani has called on President Donald Trump to declare Black Lives Matter a "domestic terror organization. "The former New York City mayor made the call during an interview with Fox News host Martha MacCallum this week.Giuliani, who led the federal prosecution of New York City mafia bosses 1980s before driving crime rates right down in the 90s as mayor, was speaking about NYC Mayor Bill de Blasio, who he blasted as "pathetic" and "an idiot" over the Big Apple's soaring violence.

Not a good idea.Of course his ads should feature video of burning police cars and court houses but let voters reach their own conclusions.
Yeah, this isn’t the time to open that can of worms.
The 911 call of Tara Durant was very terrorizing.
Agreed. Don’t kick a sleeping dog.
I love Rudy.
This is a horrible idea. It is literally saying Black Lives Don’t Matter. No matter how you cut it, that doesn’t help his cause.
I am still waiting for Antifa to be put on “the list.”
Better to wait until after the election to designate Antifa and BLM terrorist organizations.
If we are being truthful the democrat party and the MSM should also be designated terrorist organizations.
Didn’t seem to do any good against antifa. This would be a politically bad decision before the election.
From The Patriot Act:

SEC. 802. DEFINITION OF DOMESTIC TERRORISM.
(a) DOMESTIC TERRORISM DEFINED.—Section 2331 of title 18, United States Code, is amended—
(1) in paragraph (1)(B)(iii), by striking ‘‘by assassination or kidnapping’’ and inserting ‘‘by mass destruction, assassina- tion, or kidnapping’’;
(2) in paragraph (3), by striking ‘‘and’’;
(3) in paragraph (4), by striking the period at the end and inserting ‘‘; and’’; and
(4) by adding at the end the following:
‘‘(5) the term ‘domestic terrorism’ means activities that—
‘‘(A) involve acts dangerous to human life that are a violation of the criminal laws of the United States or of any State;
‘‘(B) appear to be intended—
‘‘(i) to intimidate or coerce a civilian population; ‘‘(ii) to influence the policy of a government by
intimidation or coercion; or
‘‘(iii) to affect the conduct of a government by
mass destruction, assassination, or kidnapping; and
‘‘(C) occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States.’’.
Of course, I would also charge anyone making donations to them with Section 354: Funding terrorism.
Also to apply to antifa.
NOPE — It would be completely misunderstood by most of the (unenlightened) population.
Yeah, that will be calling millions of Karens and other useful idiots terrorists
On Nov. 4, that will likely be necessary.
All true terrorist organizations needs be declared as such. Both BLM and Antifa are such.
DC cannot do lawful things. Plain to any real USAian, long ago.
I think he should do it and declare Antifa a terrorist organization at the same time. Both of these groups, however, are very amorphous (by intention) and the formal structure can be hard to find and prosecute.
However, BLM must have some kind of identifiable structure if it is receiving funds directly, from Amazon or whoever. But this is violation of the law, since it is not a 501c3, and BLM actually knows this and hands over its big donations to various Dem PACs.
But I honestly don’t know why two groups that have rampaged all over the country and destroyed the businesses and lives of thousands of city dwellers (many if not most of them black) haven’t already been declared terrorist organizations. Their funding needs to be cut off and their leaders need to be in jail.
Better idea is to declare Antifa a terrorist organization as it is really they who are instigating and escalating the violence.
Of course...I’m not saying that they’re *not* terrorists,they surely are.But I think that TV ads showing cop cars on fire is all that “swing voters” need to reach the right conclusions.
You think BLM is sleeping?????????
Furthermore, a few weeks ago, Donnie named antifa a terrorist organization, yet the enemy (antifa) is still walking around burning down our cities instead of being SHOT the way we eliminate other terrorists.
Hell, we’re so gutless, we don’t even arrest mayors and governors of sanctuary cities and states that harbor criminals.
