John Legend, Natalie Portman Other Celebs Sign Letter to Defund Police (Jane Fonda too of course)
Breitbart ^ | June 02 2020 | WARNER TODD HUSTON

Posted on 06/02/2020 11:35:59 PM PDT by knighthawk

Singers John Legend and Lizzo, and actresses Natalie Portman and Taraji P. Henson are among the Hollywood celebrities who’ve signed a letter pushing the defunding all police departments in the wake of the police involved death of Minneapolis man George Floyd.

The open letter claims that in 2017, $194 billion was spent on the police by America’s various governments even as police have “continued profiling, harassment, terror and killing of Black communities.”

-

The letter — which was also singed by Common, Jane Fonda, America Ferrera, Brie Larson, ACLU executive director Anthony Romero — goes on to insist that the money spent on police would be better spent on “building healthy communities,” or to go “to the health of our elders and children, to neighborhood infrastructure, to education, to childcare, to support a vibrant Black future.”

Black communities are living in persistent fear of being killed by state authorities like police, immigration agents, or even white vigilantes who are emboldened by state actors.

So many lies.

Vibrant communities?

What happened to #MeToo? Does rape and assault just magically disappear?

These people are looney tunes.

Send their beloved thugs to their neighborhood and then let them try and call the cops.

...goes on to insist that the money spent on police would be better spent on “building healthy communities,” or to go “to the health of our elders and children, to neighborhood infrastructure, to education, to childcare, to support a vibrant Black future.”

We have seen time and time again, the left screams racial profiling, etc. at every police interaction they have, suddenly the officers decide it's not worth it to be proactive in these areas to avoid BS complaints. Suddenly crime increases and they are screaming for the police and how they are suffering and how dangerous it is.

These celebs wouldn't be caught in some of these areas without their private armed security, but think they know what's best for others they never met.

Not a single gun permit concealed carry permit or private security guard for any of these people and if we see them use a firearm in a movie they should be blacklisted by Hollywood for being hypocrites.

That traitorous bitch Jane Fonda swore we would all love to live under communism if we only understood what it is - why the f didn’t she ever move to a communist country and give up her Hollywood career?

For over 20 years antifa has sworn that all police are fascists.

Antifa also said that GWBush was a Fascist.

Just so that the way that the enemy uses the term fascist is understood, they are militant communists who will beat down anyone who stands in their way.
