Black Lives Matter Developing Highly-Trained ‘Military’ Arm to Declare War on Police FROM RED STATE: They are declaring war on police and “training our people to defend our communities in Black Panther style armed patrols.” Newsome continued, “We’re talking about self-defense. We’re talking about defending our communities. You know what it’s like to see a taser pointed at a 7-year-old, you know what it’s like to see a 67-year-old black woman … pepper sprayed and pushed to the ground?”
HE TOLD THE DAILY MAIL, “IT’S OUR OBLIGATION, IT’S OUR DUTY TO PROVIDE PEOPLE WITH A PATHWAY FORWARD…WE WANT LIBERATION. WE WANT THE POWER TO DETERMINE OUR OWN DESTINY. WE WANT FREEDOM FROM AN OPPRESSIVE GOVERNMENT, AND WE WANT THE IMMEDIATE END OF GOVERNMENT SANCTIONED MURDER BY THE POLICE.
The murder of George Floyd, he said, woke people up. BLM is now “mobilizing its base and plans to develop a highly-trained “military” arm to challenge police brutality head on.” Newsome said they will send out armed “Peace Officers” to “patrol black communities to challenge law enforcement and stop police brutality, reminiscent of the Black Panther Party.”
Newsome, 43, has a law degree and prior to becoming a full-time activist, he was a project manager at a law firm. The interview was held in the offices of NCredible Entertainment, owned by actor and musician BLM supporter Nick Cannon.
He explained the group had spent the day creating the “‘Black Opts’ blueprint – which stands for Black Opportunities – a new direction he hopes will be the beginning of the liberation of black people.” The group is being advised by black Special Forces officers.
