Yes, that is the BLM narrative. Of course Antifa policing the streets resulted in the highest homicide rate in the world for the brief time CHAZ/CHOP existed in Seattle.
Meanwhile former-President Obama is still singing the praises of BLM as he campaigns for Biden:
Philadelphia is all ran by democrats, if the city was ran by republicans then of course the problem would be with the elected officials, since they are not the only other place to put the blame is on the police and while I have heard few say they are perfect and have no problems in the ranks that should be dealt with they are few if any on here that would want to go to some of the areas they have go into to patrol, many ran by gangs.
That place is a dump! I went there a couple years ago to take in some sights and only ended up getting to hang in the museum district for a few hours before getting disgusted and leaving. It was in the upper 90’s so the numerous bums who approached us smelled awful! There was a single-wide trailer (I assume formerly used for a construction site) that was fenced in just a few blocks down from the Rocky statue, and several homeless camped around it on the outside.
Have you forgotten? The riots are about “reparations”.

Today’s Fifth Column media ___ MSNBC, NEW YORK TIMES, CNN, ABC, CBS, NBC, WASHINGTON POST, ATLANTIC MAGAZINE, New York Daily News, Time, ETC., and their countless Yellow Journalists who are socialist domestic revolutionaries ___ make Russia’s old Pravda, [an organ of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union] look like propaganda amateurs.
Here you go people…actual film footage of the Philadelphia peaceful protestors looting and destroying their city. This is BLM in action and to all those who have been promoting this group, you’re complicit.
Stop it. Philadelphia’s unrest, rioting, looting, assaults are a result of ordering the PD to not arrest looters. Want to blame someone? Blame this chooch!
You would think at a minimum these city “leaders” would learn from the madness that has taken place since G Floyd and would take steps to avoid or contain it. But Noooo
Dipstick, how many businesses are gone?
You live in PA, yes? I assume the police department there is corrupt?
I don’t think cops need to be killed (because there are some who are better people than the ones who we see on the news), and I certainly don’t think black people need to be shot and murdered like cattle- because they are worth more. I do think that some of the cops should be brought up on charges related to the incidents and convicted so at least they can spend time in prison. There was one cop in Tulsa, Shelby I think was her name. I can’t remember if someone posted about her, but she shot and killed Terrace Crutcher. He was a fellow student at TCC when I was there. If they are not put in prison/jail, hopefully the news articles will be enough to ruin their reputation.
With that said, I don’t think all police officers should be treated this way. The ACAB thing, it is not necessarily true. Instead, the police academies need mandatory reform in how they teach and train officers. If it’s not in there already, I think that the academies should incorporate martial arts courses into their curricula, in addition to instruction on how to de-escalate a potentially violent situation.
