‘Squad’ member blasts July 4 celebrations: ‘Black people still aren’t free’
New York Post ^ | July 5, 2021 | Samuel Chamberlain

Far-left Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.), dismissed Independence Day Sunday as a holiday meant for white people before claiming: “This land is stolen land and Black people still aren’t free.”

“When they say that the 4th of July is about American freedom, remember this: the freedom they’re referring to is for white people,” tweeted Bush, a member of the progressive “Squad” of lawmakers that includes Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY).

She's right you know…..black people are still being shackled by other black people - like Cori Bush. Free your mind, the rest will follow.

That is exactly right. Get rid of the Democrat other assorted racebaiting poverty pimps, expect excellence rather than failure and underachievement, and things will improve quickly. The freedom and prosperity door is open. Those feeling oppressed only need to walk through it. Yes, it’s hard work. Yes, there will be failure but there will also be success.

“Radical blacks define freedom as socialism,..”

BLM leaders define freedom as Marxism as they, themselves, grow rich.

Anyone who claims America is stolen land should surrender their home to the nearest Native American tribe and pay back rent for stealing it.

Black people still are not free? From what? Free to do what?

The only chains they wear are of their own making.

Well, if any black people actually pay attention to what she says, then yes, they are not free, they are prisoners in their own minds.

“This land is stolen land”

Does her reasoning mean black people should leave too?

A huge minority of blacks were proved by BLM to be dangerous thugs, too violent to be near.

Sadly, that makes conscious people cross the street to avoid any of them, even the probable majority that is safe.

It’s just too risky.

You are free to go to any other country in the world. Go live in a country where blacks are the majority. Countries that follow your ideology shoot people who try to leave.

You know for ONCE, I think this SQUAD is telling us the truth. People with Negroid DNA are enslaved. They can’t get far away from the welfare check, and they MUST be able to snort their cocaine. They are locked into their ghettos, and it is either the ghettos or prison. It is all the fault of people with lighter skin pigment, all these sacking stores, looting and burning. Nothin....nothin’ at all is their fault. It can only be blamed on Donald J. Trump. This helps them feel better to know THEY are not the blame, and it was never their choice to drop out of school or get a neighbor girl pregnant.

I was going to say, go trying to say what she said in China or North Korea and see how long you last.

You'd "disappear" or at the minimum be thrown in prison for a long time.

It's like the video going around the internet now where Georgetown college students are asked if they are proud or embarrassed by the US. Of course, they all say embarrassed.

But when the questioner asks what alternative country would they prefer, none of them, not one, could name a fairer country.

These people must be absolutely miserable waking up everyday thinking you are oppressed when you live in the greatest country on the face of the earth.
