Maxine Waters slams critics for getting 'mad' at her when 'police keep killing us'

Rep. Maxine Waters says those criticizing her recent rhetoric about former police officer Derek Chauvin would leave her without conduits to express her dissent when "police keep killing us."

Waters said her critics get "mad" when her followers kneel, speak up, or protest, leaving activists with little recourse.

"What is it that they expect us to do when police keep killing us?" she tweeted Saturday night.

The California Democrat attracted controversy when she demanded Chauvin be found “guilty, guilty, guilty" in the killing of Floyd following an arrest in Minneapolis last May.

“We’re looking for a guilty verdict,” she told a crowd of protesters last Saturday. “And we’re looking to see if all of the talk that took place and has been taking place after they saw what happened to George Floyd, if nothing does not happen, then we know that we’ve got to not only stay in the street, but we’ve got to fight for justice.”

Her remarks drew condemnation from Judge Peter Cahill, who presided over Chauvin's Minneapolis trial. Cahill said Waters's comments over the weekend demanding a guilty verdict for Chauvin could result in the trial being overturned.

"I'll give you that Congresswoman Waters may have given you something on appeal that may result in this whole trial being overturned," Cahill said in response to comments by a defense attorney.

Waters dismissed Cahill's concerns.

What does she mean “us”. She’s still walking around dividing the country.

Riddle us this, Marxine. What would you have the police to do if MeKhia’s target was you?

MadMaxi needs to be thankful for the police. For IF there were NO police, MadMaxi might last what? One, maybe two days.

Deflection is so obvious, it burns.

“What is it that they expect us to do when police keep killing us?”

The police are not killing your community. Your own community is killing them and its going to get far worse because of your misdirection and political positioning.

There will be a price for all of this and most of it will be paid by innocent children and communities you claim to represent.

This is evil.

That gave me a chuckle.

And what about that icon image of her? Is it 100 years old?

There’s another thread with a more recent picture of her, and it looks like her inner slave-owner ancestor is coming out.

They live on the edge of anger and looking for trouble.. They keep voting for the side that keeps them angry and “it’s ok to attack.. And if you get shot it’s not your fault.”

If you live that way and vote that way, then take responsibility for the consequences

Personal note.. I don’t know why they were allowed to burn down cities and destroy is much.. With no stopping them. I think at the first riot, rubber bullets.. And then live.. I’m sorry to be so harsh, but ya get nowhere letting them do what they did all summer.
It was a shame and should not have happened.

Maxine, if any people keep repeating a behavior that gets them killed, they’re going to keep getting killed UNTIL they change that behavior. Race, nationality, etc. do not matter.

There is no stupid like “Moostupid”, and Maxine is the ugliest of all the stupid. So, just remember, when dealing with the stupid, don’t let them soil your shoes!
