Miami police to boycott Beyoncé concert over controversial Super Bowl performance
Fox News ^ | 2/19/16 | Blanche Johnson

The Miami Fraternal Order of Police released a press release Thursday stating that they are planning to boycott Beyonce's concert in April and are urging others to do the same. This comes after a controversial Super Bowl performance when Queen B alluded to the Black Panther movement.

"The fact that Beyonce used this year's Super Bowl to divide Americans by promoting the Black Panthers and her antipolice message shows how she does not support law enforcement," Javier Oritz President of The Miami FOP said in the press release. "We ask all law enforcement labor organizations to join our boycott across the country and to boycott all of her concerts."

I wonder what our media would do if an entertainer promoted the KKK?

To me, there doesn't seem to be a nickel's worth of difference between the KKK, Black Panthers or La Raza.

Why is one vicious hate group better than another in the eyes of the media?

* Beyonce.....just another mindless celeb. *

It almost seems like you have to become stupid to become famous.

‘Doctor, this woman has some talent, remove the part or her brain that thinks so she can concentrate on entertaining’

Good, call it like it is. Let the Black Panthers protect her. Let the brothers come to concert armed, it would be an urban renewal moment/

Tax Dollars at work. The people of the city are paying for the Police Departments and this carpetbagger takes officers away from protecting tax paying citizens.

I’d boycott her, but I never watch or buy her stuff anyway.

Payback is a bitch!!!

I love football, but IF the NFL EVER decides to hire Beyonce for any future appearances-—I will boycott the NFL until I die.

They certainly should have known what the planned performance was going to be.

IF they didn’t—then someone needs to get fired!!!

Why can’t there be a performance with Garth Brooks, Tricia Yearwood & Toby Keith where we can all enjoy clean lyrics & can actually HEAR the words of the songs???

Today’s Hells Angels are fat old men

A shadow of that bunch in late 1969

Look at the old news reels and Gimme Shelter tape

Those were some bad ass rakish bikers

They looked more athletic and barbarian
