Black Lives Matter Founder: DNC Platform Must Call for Defunding Police, Abolishing ICE

Self-proclaimed Marxist and Black Lives Matter (BLM) co-founder Patrisse Cullors called on Democrats to make “sea changes” to their party platform and adopt radical legislation that calls to defund the police force, eliminate both the Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) and the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), and close all federal prisons and immigration detention centers, alongside various other radical demands — otherwise, “any claims of allyship and solidarity with our work to fight for black liberation are for naught.”

Cullors stated there is “an opportunity right now to right the course of history” and warned that if not careful, the Democratic Party “will miss its greatest opportunity” to lead our country to the “true American revolution.”

Um, okay. I posted a draft copy of the dnc platform the other day and commented that it probably still needed input from blm. Then BOOM! This. "...right the course of history...."? And what qualifies this entity to know what is "right" and what is not. Seems she is proving the NOT part currently. Bullying and creating a hostile environment.

Blacks aren’t even the largest racial or ethnic minority anymore in the USA.

What a dangerous person she is with all the “hustle money” BLM is sitting on. Democrats will lose everything if they follow her wishes.

I have been operating under the assumption that George Soros has been supporting/supplying the Antifa/BLM operations.

Perhaps I have been wrong. After reading this I cannot help but wonder if all of this insanity is being pushed by the illegal drug cartels.

Why else would someone want to eliminate the DEA, police departments, court systems, any and all other means of squelching illegal activity?

Things that make you go hmmmmm......

That is an EXCELLENT idea, DNC. You should run with it and hemorrhage even more supporters like you mean it.

How does mass immigration from Latin America help black Americans? Hispanics are close to or have already surpassed blacks as America’s #1 minority and are going to displace them as the democrat party’s favorites. Hispanics are pushing black Americans out of black neighborhoods and often using violence to do it. It’s my impression that the two groups don’t really get along.

But going back to my Alinsky lessons: it’s not the issue, it’s the revolution. Marxist BLM leaders don’t care if they help or hurt blacks; they want to destroy the United States. Are the dems ready to get on board with that.

This is about destroying this Republic and remaking in in the image of one of the successful African nations..but I just can’t think of which one that might be.
