Mayor Ras J. Baraka today said he will ask the Newark City Council to approve an ordinance that will denounce hate crimes and racism, police brutality and declare white supremacy groups as terrorists in the City of Newark.

“We are long overdue on a measure such as this,” Baraka said. “For this country to heal, we must begin to legally challenge the insidious and dehumanizing tenets of white supremacy, once and for all. We must stand up forcefully against racism and have the courage to take on the legal challenges an ordinance such as this will attract.”

Newark Corporation Counsel Kenyatta Stewart added, “We will welcome challenges to the ordinance. You can’t enjoy free speech when you can’t breathe, and our first human right is to be able to live.” […]

“This ordinance is no publicity stunt,” Baraka said of the impending law to outlaw hate groups. “These groups are a serious threat right here in New Jersey.” …

Islam has always been about Islamic Supremacy.

It’s in their book.

Nearly 1400 years of history bears witness to that.

But not terrorist groups like Antifa and BLM and various Jihadist groups.

Where do they get these people like Mayor Ras J. Baraka (sure sounds like a Muslim to me)?

Are there really “white supremacists”? Is that a “thing”? Where do they meet? In a phone booth?

Remember the “white supremacists” riots of 2020? You remember, they looted stores, set businesses and police cars on fire ...wait...

Sort of like outlawing the growing of oranges in Minnesota.

How about BLM? They’re a black supremacy group?

Oh they’re not?

Then the KKK is a white equality group.

The whole thing is a straw man based on a red herring.

Is it a riddle, wrapped in an enigma, surrounded by mysteries? 😁🤪😆

How about “Sanctuary Cities” for everyone but white heterosexuals?

A mayor with a crime and poverty problem in his city with failing schools and budget deficits and all that is placed on the backburner to legislate against KKK who do not exist and have never existed in the city.

A failing, crime ridden city, and THAT is the priority of their frankly stupid, racist mayor? Talk about trying to redirect peoples’ attention off one’s own deficiencies, here’s a great example.

What does the oath of office for Mayor of Newark look like? Maybe it contains something about following/upholding the Constitution of NJ and of the United States. Maybe. Maybe this guy cannot read and comprehend.

Oh just give it a rest already. If one may say black lives matter, but may not say all lives matter, I think it is clear who the supremacists are.

Why ban any group because of a name or ideology?

If they haven’t committed a crime, leave them alone.

The real purpose will show itself by labeling anyone/organization they don’t like, “white supremacists” and with a little help from the SPLC, BAM! A new class of citizen that can be harassed & harangued for fame, fortune & power.

That really is exactly how I see it. I was just having fun with the whole idea of banning organizations that don’t really exist in any “real” form.

I believe the same two MAGA hat wearing racists who attacked Juicey Smollet in Chicago have been seen in Newark NJ.

I got ya. Funny how the left wants to “re-work” the justice system and policing but the first thing they do is make new laws.

That require enforcement.
