DeRay McKesson, one of the top organizers for the Black Lives Matter movement, is seeking a meeting with presidential aspirant Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL). The request for a meeting follows comments in which Rubio seemed to lend his personal support to the group’s anti-cop rhetoric.
In a recent tweet, McKesson said, “@MarcoRubio, I just saw your recent interview re: the movement. Will you meet to discuss the issues, and solutions, further?”
...
Rubio said that concerns held by the controversial protesters are “legitimate” and suggested that “resentment” for law enforcement was understandable.

Rubio just joined ranks with Rand Paul. Watch his numbers plummet.
Looks like Sharpton digs it, too.
Give it a couple days. The Donald will bring this up.
But the American people don’t know that.
Apparently there are tens of millions of American “citizens” who are strongly pro-illegal immigrant.
Rubio is flexible, a real Florida Gumby
That is true but it is also nuts.
What's the choice? How else does a community or neighborhood stop the violence from spiiling over from combat zones?
Pandering, pandering.................
Just a personal feeling, I have a hunch that the Republican defeat in 2016 will be greater than when the Democrats retook control of both Houses of Congress. Former Republican voters will either stay home, vote third party, or write in. Factor in the Democrat vote fraud and it indicates disaster for Republicans.
Rubio supports the communist left.
A looming disaster that the Republican “leadership” will never be able to explain; when only 6 percent if that of Republican primary potential voters favoring Cruz, we are facing a big disaster once again.
Rubio probably wouldn’t recognize the communist left if it struck him in the face. Like most of his fellow Floridians
The reason these “Americans” support illegal immigration is that they see current and many more future voters for liberal candidates consistent with their own voting preferences. They will soon have all elections largely rigged to the liberal outcome.
“All” conservatives were for Rubio for Senate in 2010; we just didn’t know for certain what we were getting. No surprises for the most part
SOME cops in this country are out of control. To castigate all cops is illogical and lacksany sense of fairness.
It’s not so much what some of these candidates have said...it’s what they haven’t said. What they should say when confronted with people like the BLM clowns is to speak the truth: blacks are arrested more than other groups because they commit far more crime per capita than other groups. There is no candidate brave enough to speak the truth.
Interestingly, saw on local news last night a couple cops taking down a normal looking woman from some months ago. She is now sueing the city, that's why the video surface at this date. From the video, witnesses, and her testimony, she walked to a cop to ask him what's happening in an incident in her neighborhood. He said, "What the f*ck business is it to you?" She said she lived there and was only asking.
Once she replied they went full body force on her and the video shows one cop repeatedly punching her in the face once on the ground. Yes, there may be more to it, but from what I saw she didn't deserve to be punched in the face.
Repeat, some cops are now so fearful for their lives, they over-react.
So, GOPe is clearly demonstrating it’s learned nothing from Trump’s campaign trail antics? It still thinks pandering, posturing and labeling the activities of racist thugs “legitimate” is the road to victory. Stupid is as stupid does.
