Dem congressman likens Chicago police union to KKK: 'Like kissing, hugging and law-breaking cousins’
Fox News ^ | June 15 2020 | Morgan Phillips

Rep. Bobby Rush, D-Ill., likened Chicago’s police union to the Klu Klux Klan, saying both organizations were “like kissing, hugging and law-breaking cousins.”

“The number-one cause that prevents police accountability, that promotes police corruption, that protects police lawlessness, is a culprit called the Fraternal Order of Police,” the Chicago Democrat told Politico on Sunday. “They’re the organized guardians of continuous police lawlessness, of police murder and police brutality. The Chicago Fraternal Order of Police is the most rabid, racist body of criminal lawlessness by police in the land. It stands shoulder to shoulder with the Ku Klux Klan then and the Ku Klux Klan now.”

Rush, who was a founding member of the Illinois Black Panthers, said the Chicago FOP and the Ku Klux Klan “are like kissing, hugging and law-breaking cousins,” and that the union had a long history of protecting officer wrongdoing instead of removing them from the ranks.

Whoa. Looks like Bobby Rush is angling to cut out the middleman in the whole money laundering operation that is the demonicRAT Party.

Talk about biting the hand that feeds him. Anyone have any idea how much the Chicago Police Union contributed to his campaign?

Rush... said the Chicago FOP and the Ku Klux Klan “are like kissing, hugging and law-breaking cousins,”


So he’s calling the FOP Democrats?

Does that explain why so many Blacks kill other Blacks in Chicago?

As long as this nation tolerates the Democrat Party, it deserves what happens to it. The Democrat Party, if allowed, will sink this Nation 90 feet lower than hell.

What does Illinois Black Panthers, Chicago FOP and the Ku Klux Klan all have in common?

Gee. The answer eludes me. It’s right on the tip of my tongue. I had it a moment ago. Dead people also have this in common too.

Darn it all. Hate when my mind draws a blank.

Yes, yes he is. As wrong as wrong could be. No one, anywhere at any time in recorded history, has been more wrong than the Congressman....

...except for the guys who gave us “New Coke”. They were seriously pretty wrong there.

His father was foreign so Obozo with no slave blood was seen as a faggy phony. Also Rush is a few shades darker and has no white moma.

Racism is like a virus. Whenever anyone makes a racist statement, the virus spreads.

Many people may be immune to the disease, but there are always those whose immunity is a little weaker.

Black people may be told by the likes of Al Sharpton that, because they do not have power in a White-privilege world, they cannot be racist. True or not, that ignores the viral behavior of the disease of racism.

Rep. Bobby Rush's statement that the Chicago FOP is racist ("most rabid, racist body of criminal lawlessness") just spread that virus to a VERY large crowd of already potentially dangerous but very necessary men and women.

Thanks Bobby. You just chucked a huge log of fatwood on the fire of racism.

This guy is such an A-hole. He went after police trying to rest in his offices from the rioting, after it had already been trashed by the rioters and his staff had asked the police to come in and watch over it.
