Singers John Legend and Lizzo, and actresses Natalie Portman and Taraji P. Henson are among the Hollywood celebrities whove signed a letter pushing the defunding all police departments in the wake of the police involved death of Minneapolis man George Floyd.
The open letter claims that in 2017, $194 billion was spent on the police by Americas various governments even as police have continued profiling, harassment, terror and killing of Black communities.
-
The letter which was also singed by Common, Jane Fonda, America Ferrera, Brie Larson, ACLU executive director Anthony Romero goes on to insist that the money spent on police would be better spent on building healthy communities, or to go to the health of our elders and children, to neighborhood infrastructure, to education, to childcare, to support a vibrant Black future.

If this is what having a little money does to your brain, I will die poor and be much happier....
Stupid people will always remain stupid!
Put them on a list and if they ever call 911 tell them to go pound sand.
Rich celebs have security ,let the urban areas have social workers....UNDERPAID,OVERWORKED SOCIAL WORKERS IN STEAD OF COPS....The rest of america can keep the police force.....
Not Fonda them or JANE
So many lies.
Enemy of the people. The real people,that is.
Vibrant communities?
What happened to #MeToo? Does rape and assault just magically disappear?
These people are looney tunes.
So we cant’ have police now. Fine give me the money back on my taxes and I will hire someone too.
Screw those hollywood assholes. People really need to quit supporting them.
I’ll wait to see Biden’s take on defunding the police
Send their beloved thugs to their neighborhood and then let them try and call the cops.
We have seen time and time again, the left screams racial profiling, etc. at every police interaction they have, suddenly the officers decide it's not worth it to be proactive in these areas to avoid BS complaints. Suddenly crime increases and they are screaming for the police and how they are suffering and how dangerous it is.
These celebs wouldn't be caught in some of these areas without their private armed security, but think they know what's best for others they never met.
Then they must be forced to lose their private security.
Brain dead dipshits.

Well at least the police know who NOT to respond to should they dial 911...
Not a single gun permit concealed carry permit or private security guard for any of these people and if we see them use a firearm in a movie they should be blacklisted by Hollywood for being hypocrites.
Million dollar Marxists
That traitorous bitch Jane Fonda swore we would all love to live under communism if we only understood what it is - why the f didnt she ever move to a communist country and give up her Hollywood career?
For over 20 years antifa has sworn that all police are fascists.
Antifa also said that GWBush was a Fascist.
Just so that the way that the enemy uses the term fascist is understood, they are militant communists who will beat down anyone who stands in their way.
