Squad member Rep. Cori Bush quoted Martin Luther King Jr.’s, “A riot is the language of the unheard,” in response to an inmate riot at the St. Louis city jail over the weekend.

“I want to talk to my constituents in the window. Their lives and their rights must be protected,” she tweeted:

“A riot is the language of the unheard.” – Dr. MLK Jr.

I want to talk to my constituents in the window. Their lives and their rights must be protected.

My team and I are working to ensure that the urgent needs of people who are incarcerated are not ignored. https://t.co/wMq8ecyLQ2 — Cori Bush (@CoriBush) February 7, 2021

“A riot is the language of the unheard,”

What kind of stupid pronouncement is that? I can't believe people hear crap like that and think it's deep, and important, and meaningful. It's stupid, is what it is.

the amount of influence the black liberation marxists and their white guilt enablers have on this country is shocking. Their endgame is your eradication.

But not in D.C. and not against Congress.

If a riot is the language of the unheard, and riots are okay again....

Then what do they say about Deplorables who try for freedom of speech (MyPillow’s Mike Lindell) or expression of unpopular ideas (Lou Dobbs) or just meeting in public carrying slogan signs?

MLK had a communist backer, Stan Levinson. Everything the left promotes is not what it seems. It’s always an effort to bring in communism.

Maybe they should turn all the prisoners loose and let them go back to committing mayhem in their neighborhoods. Hate the police? Then don’t call them.

Hey Cori, did you see that crowd of around a million people peacefully assembling in DC Jan 6? It sure would be a shame if they suddenly weren’t so peaceful. All the BLM or Antifa in the world wouldn’t stop them.

Cori Bush (D-MO) seems to be getting an awful amount of press for a freshman Congresswoman with all of month’s service under her belt. Amongst other things she complained that Marjorie Taylor Greene’s presence was so intimidating that she (Bush) needed to be moved to a nicer office.

And today she’s in the news praising the inmate riot at the St Louis jail.

I’m currently transcribing a congressional committee hearing with her speaking, and she is every bit as strident, obnoxious, radical, demagogic, and low information voter focused as the rest of the Squad.
