Black Lives Matter Boos D.C. Mayor for Saying She'll Put More Police on Street

The boos began as soon as Washington's mayor said she was putting more police officers on the streets in neighborhoods affected by violent crime. They didn't let up for the next 18 minutes as Democrat Muriel Bowser laid out her plans to address an increase in homicides in the nation's capital.

Bowser was repeatedly heckled and interrupted by a few dozen protesters affiliated with the Black Lives Matter movement during her address Thursday inside the sweltering gymnasium of a long-shuttered school in southeast Washington.

Shouting "Jobs, not jails!" and "More police is not the answer!," the protesters accused the mayor of failing to address the root causes of violence and advocating for policies that would do more harm than good.

Bowser, who is black, said she wanted "to make 'Black Lives Matter' more than just a hashtag.'" The hecklers said they didn't believe her.

"More police is not the answer!"

Not the whole answer. A lot more executions of criminals is also needed.

“A lot more executions of criminals is also needed.” According to #blm, the cops apparently have a “double O” clearance to perform them on the spot.

To most of America, black lives don’t really matter as long as they are predominantly killing each other. If blacks were killing whites in Beverly Hills at the same rates as in their usual locales, their crime activities would come to a screeching halt rather quickly.

Maybe she should pull the police from these bad neighborhoods and leave them to their own devices.

Black president, black mayor but yet many black lives troubled as a matter of unrest. Perhaps black solutions don’t work and neither does big government. They protest but have no thought out solutions. Let it be rephrased.. ‘Black Lies Matter”.. based on blinded raw emotions of the carnal human nature. Obama is no hope or inspiration to them after all-—total fail but no surprise.

Ah yes, the revolutionary mobs are close to rising up and slaying their “progressive” leaders.

After seven years, even the dimmest of them are realizing Obama is an elitist liar who did nothing to improve their situation.

When reality hits home the mob wants to lash out at their rulers - even if they share the same ethnicity. So predictable, but also fun to watch.

” ......even the dimmest of them are realizing Obama is an elitist liar” Sadly, a lot of the ‘dimmest’ are more than willing to replace the lyin’ king with a hildebeast, a bernie or a jojo.

I was sent out to work in DC several years ago. During the two weeks I was there, 7 cab drivers were murdered. The Taxi Commissioner responded by sending out a memo telling drivers not to pick up young black males after dark, and don’t go into certain black neighborhoods. Naturally, there was a firestorm of protest, and demands that she resign. The woman fought back, and said that it was her job to keep taxi drivers alive. She went on to point out that 5 of the drivers who were killed were black, and two were Hispanic.

The Taxi Commissioner was black.

They might just be there to make sure that Soros gets what he has paid for. Kind of like overseers of the new world order.

What’s your point? You are right... I don’t really care... And if that crap did start happening in my area, I would take law-abiding steps to correct it...

But in the THUG culture, If you help the police then you are a “snitch”... Why should the police bother?

And if Blacks were killing Whites in Beverly Hills, you could expect the residents to help the police and get the criminals OUT of their community...

Being on the other end of the spectrum, I believe they should be publicly caned.

Pay per view, cash accounts only, NO EBT accepted.

Because most Americans are exhausted from their day job, or elect not to be involved in physical labor, the canning crew will be selected from the nearest Home Depot parking lot.

To defray event cost,there will be telephone voting ($.50 ?) for the events CANE MASTER. Unfortunately taxes and expenses will be deducted; the CANE MASTER will receive a percentage of the take, but will be first pick for the next event.
For an additional fee the tele voters may add or subtract from the proscribed count.
Tickets will be sold to a selected and thoroughly searched studio audience.

The Cane men, women, whatever... may wear a mask of their choosing.

A standard Royal Navy cat o’nine tales will be used.
