Black Lives Matter Crashes Children’s Event To Protest Police Shooting

Pennsylvania Black Lives Matter protesters crashed a children’s event Monday to voice their anger over the police shooting of a black man.

Activists interrupted a speech former Democratic Gov. Ed Rendell was giving to commemorate the 11th anniversary of a Philadelphia park’s founding, reports 6ABC. The protesters, angry over the fatal police shooting of David Jones, accused Rendell of having “blood on his hands” at the Franklin Square event.

“And now you have the ultimate politician who is anti-black,” the activist said, turning towards Rendell. “There is nothing but blood on his hands.”

North Philadelphia police officers shot Jones, a black man, in the back after a June traffic stop. The officer, James Pownall, stopped Jones because he was driving recklessly. Pownall gave James a pat-down, during which he felt a gun in the man’s waistband, according to the police account. James escaped as the two fought each other, prompting Pownall to pull out a gun and shoot James in the back as he ran away.

A white woman tried to interrupt the activist with the microphone, but he told her to “back up off me.”

“Back up off of me. Back up off of me,” the activist told the woman. “Because a black man was shot, I know you don’t give a damn about that. You and your white privilege.”

Parents and children eventually had to be led to a different location due to the protest.

The more the Dems keep kowtowing to BLM, La Raza, NARAL and other specific special interest groups they’ll continue to see the exit of more and more white working class voters from their party. They were the difference in the last election and the Democrats aren’t doing anything these days that will get them back in their ranks.

I think la raza changed it’s name to ‘unidos US’ since they tarnished the old moniker and people thought poorly of them. Yeah, a name change will help. NOT!

Did I miss the riots in the streets over Justine, the Australian, organized by BLM? Maybe because there were none. The BLM crowd is nothing but a neo-communist group trying to increase discontent in the “oppressed” underclass.

I sure hope the corrupt Rendell and the Libtard Philadelphians enjoy wading in their swamp. Too bad that rat,ruddy faced, scumbag Kenney wasn't there.

The birthplace of our country is a four side ghetto run by City Hall that is filled with asinine grifters who act like Mafia.

I am sorry for the kids but Libtards vs Libtards makes me go "meh".

White privilege is being smart enough not to fight armed police officers.

And what’s with all this tribalism?

This BLMer doesn’t know squat about this black guy that was shot. He never saw him before he was shot, probably doesn’t know his family or what he’s done in his life. All that matters to him is the perp that was shot had dark skin. That’s it.

How stupid is that? On top of that he crashes an event where he’s not wanted and the event is for kids. Plus he commandeers a microphone that isn’t his.
