Elizabeth Warren just gave the speech that Black Lives Matter activists have been waiting for
WAPO ^ | Sep. 27, 2015 | Wesley Lowery

In a Sunday speech on racial inequality, Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) called for broad policing reform — including de-escalation training and body cameras for all police officers — and likened the current Black Lives Matter movement to the civil rights movement that won black Americans the right to vote in the 1960s.

"None of us can ignore what is happening in this country. Not when our black friends, family, neighbors literally fear dying in the streets." Warren said. "This is the reality all of us must confront, as uncomfortable and ugly as that reality may be. It comes to us to once again affirm that black lives matter, that black citizens matter, that black families matter."

In the address, a copy of which was provided to The Washington Post prior to her delivery, Warren draws direct parallels between the civil rights movement and the current anti-police-brutality movement, and it sought to link issues on economic inequality with systemic racism. She traces racial economic inequality, citing inequities in the housing system, as well as decrying restrictions to voting rights.

All hail Fauxcahontas, warming the racist thugs up.

She's fired up and watching Hillary! going down in flames.

Will she throw her head feathers into the 2016 Presidential race?

Yeah—Her approach has worked so well in cities like Chicago and Detroit.

Warren/Castro.

I thought six months ago that would be the ultimate dem ticket. Haven’t seen anything to change that assessment.

Well, I guess this means she’s locked up the Strong-Arm Thug Robbery vote.

Black lives matter is a racist terrorist group built on lies that promotes the murder of innocent white people. That may possibly murder innocent white people. This group should not receive any acknowledgement or support. Any political leader that supports their idealogy should be taken to the wood shed. Not surprised as Warren lies about her own ethnic background.

Racial harmony puts race baiters like Warren, Barry, Sharpton, etc. out of business. They need to stoke the fires to keep the blood flowing in the streets.

Never mind the elephant in the room that is cities like Chicago where blacks are killing each other with abandon while the bodies pile up like cord wood.

They are also communists, and founded by white people. Astroturfing much?

I wonder how many thugs supporting BLM realize that body cameras will show police doing the right thing in more than 95% of situations that are held up as examples of police brutality. The police are occasionally in the wrong, but the thugs are so consistently wrong that: Sweet Little Trayvon was held up as a hero despite being guilty of attempted murder; Gentle Giant Michael Brown was on video minutes before he was shot engaged in assault, battery, and theft; and Eric Garner was resisting arrest after intimidating pedestrians and scaring customers away from the store for months.

These are the best examples the far left could find for their propaganda, and they thugs. More cameras would show their thuggishness without the careful editing of those with an agenda. I’m okay with that.

What the f*ck does killing white cops have to do with civil rights?

I’m waiting to hear a good explanation.

if/when that happens, do we look at a permanent separation from the dying USofA?

They could, but why confuse the narrative with facts. The narrative is that Blacks could not vote until the 1960s.

What a pile of horse crap.

They WON’T address the fact that most blacks are murdered by blacks,
and they DEFINITELY won’t address the fact that it is
LIBERAL POLICY that destroyed the American black family.

How about their fear of dying at the hand of their neighbors, while they sleep in their beds or sit in their grandparent's lap?

Would that be the Elizabeth warren “give black thugs a pass act of 2015.”? How come no blistering attack on her fauxny ancestory but the d.c. football team is still under attack. I guess in today’s world it’s not so weird huh?
