Natalie Portman has said she supports the Defund The Police movement after admitting she was initially fearful of it because of her 'white privilege'.

She took to Instagram on Monday, sharing resources that explain the movement in detail following the death of George Floyd at the hands of police on May 25.

The 38-year-old said: 'My whole life, police have made me feel safe. But that's exactly the center of my white privilege.

I don’t know who Natalie Portman is, and don’t care about her views on anything. Not one damned thing.

Even career criminal Hillary Clinton knows where Portman's brain resides.

You’re safe because you are a good citizen.

Those who are not good citizens should be afraid their vile behavior will be met with punishment....

The consequences of being part of the 13% of the population that commits 70% of the violent crimes is that police are reluctant to interact with any African American because they might be “one of those” and police would end up dead.

My 15 year old daughter tried to tell me that the reason 70% of the crimes is done by the 13% black population is due to over policing and systemic racism.

I just shook my head, chuckled a little, told her there is no such thing as “systemic racism” - unless the system specifically says “humans can’t do this”, etc., she’s confusing race with ethnicity. However, there is also no such thing as “systemic” ethnicity in the US anymore - based on the many laws passed by Republicans over the last 165 or so years, that the Democrats fought against - until LBJ decided to create the “Great Society” and get the black vote for the next 200 years by giving black people, and only black people, “free” things. That’s actual systemic ethnic bias, because it’s exclusionary - then told her that her view is based on what she’s learned from YouTube, Instagram, Tik Tok, and 15 years - my view is based on travelling the world, being 50+ years old, a US Navy veteran, and actual life experience. I think she thinks I’m a facist. If only her mother were alive to hear her now.

They need to watch this Richard Pryor classic, he once felt the same way, too....and then he actually went to a penitentiary...

Democrats protect their looters and criminals... if anyone was going to ‘hang’ it would be innocent traditional Americans.

Have you noticed when blacks slaughter each other it’s called ‘gun violence’ - (no one is responsible except the gun)...

But when a cop kills a black person it’s called murder.
____________________________________________

In 2019 10 unarmed blacks were killed by cops.

In 2019 over 7,000 blacks were killed by other black men.

THE ONLY ‘BLACK LIVES THAT MATTER ARE THE ONES KILLED BY COPS... THE OTHER THOUSANDS KILLED BY FELLOW BLACK MEN DON’T MATTER.

Natalie Portman succumbs to White Shaming. It’s the new #MeToo movement for those suffering from White Guilt.

They are Generation Day Care. This is what you get in a society that devalues the family.
