Black Lives Matter leader hit with restraining order after threatening LA police official

Lovely.

In fairness, one guy does not an entire movement make. The restraining order that requires Gerard to stay at least 100 yards away from Commissioner Johnson is about Gerard’s personal behavior, and not about any official actions or positions taken by BLM. If you want to argue that Gerard’s attitude is not typical of BLM’s overall attitude toward the police, give it your best.

But if BLM really wants to make the case this is not what it’s all about, they would probably help themselves a lot if they would publicly condemn this sort of nonsense:

Anyone who belongs to that organization is already guilty of a crime.

Johnson said in court papers that he had been stalked and threatened by the Black Lives Matter leader. He charged that at various board meetings Gerard had mouthed threats, including “I am going to beat your a—” and “I am going to f———kill you.”

Restraining Order? Really? And he wasn't arrested??? What am I missing here??

In prior days, anyone threatening the police commissioner would have been hit with more than a restraining order.

Well, after January 20, 2017, Black Lives Matter will quickly diminish in importance because you know the Trump-dominated DoJ and FBI will go after them for advocating attacking police officers directly.

Black Lives Matter is a racist terrorist organization that promotes the killing of innocent people.

BLM has been a division of DOJ
