The National Police Association is asking a Silicon Valley city to change a large Black Lives Matter mural in front of City Hall to remove the painting of a fugitive who is wanted for escaping prison nearly 50 years ago while serving time for killing a police officer.

Chesimard, a leading figure in the 1970s so-called Black Liberation Army also known as Assata Shakur, was serving a life sentence for an array of charges, including first-degree murder and assault and battery of a police officer. In May 1973, she and two accomplices opened fire on two New Jersey state troopers, according to an FBI wanted poster. One was wounded and the other was shot and killed execution-style.

I dunno it seems like a fitting representative of the BLM movement.

“I say leave it on there and make sure everyone knows what she did.”

Palo Alto, 1.2% black

East Palo Alto was bought out years ago by Asians and Mexican illegals living 3 families to a house.

You gotta drive to Oakland to see any African faces.

What do the cops think it means to bend the knee to these terrorists? Or do they want the movement to only target civilians? Because others on the mural victimized civilians

Are these people stupid?
