Chicago BLM Activist: 'We Need to Abolish the Police'
Fox News ^ | 7/12/2016 | Kelly File

Posted on 07/13/2016 4:48:42 AM PDT by EBH

A Black Lives Matter activist from Chicago argued during a heated Kelly File discussion that American police forces should be abolished.

"Here are the solutions. We need to abolish the police, period. Demilitarize the police, disarm the police, and we need to come up with community solutions for transformative justice," said Jessica Disu, drawing some shocked reactions.

The conversation started with Megyn Kelly asking the panel - which included Black Rights Matter supporters, law enforcement officers, conservative commentators and religious leaders - about some who praised the Dallas gunman.

Blacks commit crime at over 7 times the rate for whites. Blacks hate the police because they are one of the few remaining institutions that hold them accountable for their actions.

All the while keep in mind that they are talking about removing the rule of law.

Now becoming the meme from these activists and Hollywood type. Personally, I’d quit policing the neighborhoods that these idiots speak for.

Absolutely true, but if they are wanting some sort of transformative justice, they need to look into their own communities first.

“And Chicago will look like Beirut”

What’s the old saying? “Be careful what you wish for because you just might get your wish”. So, I say give them their wish and pull all the cops out of these inner city high crime areas and let them have at it. Heck, let’s make it easy for them. Let’s stage skids of 9mm and Glocks on every block so they won’t run out of ammo or guns to shoot each other. Let it rip I say...

Maybe she should have also said “You will be absorbed. Your individuality will merge into the unity of good, and in your submergence into the common being of the body, you will find contentment, fulfillment. You will experience the absolute good.”

I didn’t say “sort of”. I fully believe this is what they are after. A national police force totally obedient to some tyrant in Washington DC that metes out their retribution.

Her plan is excellent and needs to be implemented immediately on a trial basis. Put a fence around Chicago south side to keep the cops out and see what happens. Of course ambulances won’t go in without police protection and probably the same for grocery trucks.

If anyone is left alive in 2 weeks maybe they will see the light.

It is the meme they are pushing. And yet, is a response earlier with link,

while holding people who commit violence accountable within and by their communities
http://www.usprisonculture.com/blog/transformative-justice/

One has to ask, what is the difference between that statement and jury of one’s peers? The answer rests in one is mob rule and the other is rule of law.

given the current murder rate, it would seem that the cops have voluntarily abolished themselves in some of the city

I want to abolish activists.

How come my community doesn’t have an activist? What is a community activist anyway? How does one become an activist? Does it pay well?

They don’t want the police, good. Then they can take matters into their own hands and combat violence in their neighborhoods.

OK Jessica, we’ll use your suggestion as a test case but there are some rules first. Lets start with certain areas in Chicago, fence the entire area in and turn them loose, mean NO police. How long do you think it would take for the entire area to be void of everyone and every thing as the street rats and animals go on their predictable rampages?

Jessica, you are an idiot!

How come it is the idiots who call the police most often that are all for the abolition of police?

I have been on this Earth almost a half century and besides the time I had a break in I have never had the need to call the police, yet statistics show that inner city minorities call the police for everything all day long. Often for non crime related problems. It is like a community past time.

That would be the worst mistake they ever made. And one of the last. Why? Because with the police gone, they would have no one to protect them from the ordinary Citizens they torment and torture each day by closing and blocking the roads they use to earn a living. Nor would the police be able to protect them from the owners of the businesses they burn and vandalize with impunity. Them and their self hating White allies will rue the day this happens.

EBH wrote: “Actually she is. She is talking about transformative justice. ...Transformative Justice seeks to provide people who experience violence with immediate safety and long-term healing and reparations while holding people who commit violence accountable within and by their communities”

The key words are in the last sentance “long term healing and reparations”. Just another way to convince people that we must have reparations for past injustices against blacks.
