Conference featuring 2020 Dems begins with fiery chant quoting fugitive cop-killer Assata Shakur
Fox News ^ | April 1 2019 | Gregg Re

A conference featuring eight prominent 2020 Democrat presidential hopefuls kicked off in Washington, D.C,. with the fiery rallying cry of a fugitive cop-killer on Monday, as the labor and political groups in attendance shouted in unison, "We have nothing to lose but our chains."

Jamal Watkins, the Vice President of Civic Engagement at the NAACP, began by telling the audience at the We the People conference that he would invoke the words of Assata Shakur, also known as Joanne Chesimard.

Shakur was convicted of the 1973 murder of a New Jersey state trooper when she was in the Black Liberation Army. After escaping from prison in 1979, Shakur fled to Cuba, which granted her asylum even as she remains on the FBI's list of most-wanted fugitive terrorists.

What a worthless bunch.

....”We have nothing to lose but our chains.”...

A decent sized portion of that community is worthless and stupid.

And YES, you have MUCH MORE REAL things to lose than your imaginary crybaby b.tch chains.

The rats have always done and said things like this. The difference is President Trump actually uses this crap against them.

Previous Republicans have acted as if they were loath to make the rats look bad in the eyes of the people.

Go figure.

There goes about 99.9% of the police and sheriffs’ votes for Trump in 2020.

Love a red, get slaughtered at the polls. JUSTICE!

https://www.marxists.org/archive/marx/works/1848/communist-manifesto/ch04.htm

From Manifesto of the Communist Party link:

"The famous final phrase of the Manifesto, “Working Men of All Countries, Unite!”, in the original German is: “Proletarier aller Länder, vereinigt euch!” Thus, a more correct translation would be “Proletarians of all countries, Unite!"

“Workers of the World, Unite. You have nothing to lose but your chains!” is a popularisation of the last three sentences, and is not found in any official translation.

The Chesimard gang shot Trooper Werner Foerster in the head when he was down n the pavement on Interstate 80. They are scum of the first order which is why Castro’s Cuba took them in after they escaped from prison. What’s next for the Dem hopefuls? Lunch with Adolf Hitler’s descendants?

Send in a CIA agent and end the madness. Let the rats spend the next year explaining why a cop killer should get such respect and admiration.

Can’t believe any woman would go by a name so close to “Ass Shaker.”

In 1980, Reagan won in a landslide and the libs were shocked.

In 2016, the Libs predicted that HillaBeans was gonna win in a landslide and she lost.

Makes me so happy when the left predicts a big win for themselves.

I will never forget the look of shock on Peter Jennings' face when Reagan beat up Carter.
