BOOM: Black, Hispanic Liberals in NYC Blast White-Led 'Defund Police' Movement
August 10, 2020Because the vast majority of the ‘mainstream media’ in America is dishonest and a propaganda machine for the Left-wing anarchist movement attempting to destroy our country as founded, most people have only been given one side of the story regarding the “defund police” effort.
Since the George Floyd incident, there has been a movement afoot to “defund” local police departments, either partially or entirely. Many times, when we see ‘defund’ demonstrators on TV or social media, they are black, militant, and very anti-cop.
But in reality, a growing number of minorities in America’s biggest cities who are liberal are not so ‘progressive’ they favor getting rid of the thin blue line that protects them, their children, and their cities from assured destruction.

In fact, growing numbers of black and brown Americans are calling for more police on the streets, especially as Antifa-led, well-coordinated violence continues to destroy neighborhoods and business districts.
The New York Times reports even in that center of liberal power, black and brown Democrats are pushing back hard against Mayor Bill de Blasio’s efforts white, progressive effort to cut billions from the NYPD’s budget – even as violent crime spikes throughout once stable city:
With New York City on the cusp of cutting $1 billion from the Police Department, a city councilwoman, Vanessa L. Gibson, told her colleagues that enough was enough.
She acknowledged that some Council members, spurred by the movement to defund the police, were seeking to slash even more from the department’s budget. But she pointed out that her constituents did not agree.
They “want to see cops in the community,” Ms. Gibson said.
"They don’t want to see excessive force. They don’t want to see cops putting their knees in our necks,” she said. “But they want to be safe as they go to the store.”
Let's be clear: The vast majority of police officers are conscientious, caring, professional, and effective -- and that's especially true in New York City. As such, literally defunding them while eliminating entire departments is a guaranteed death sentence for entire cities, and an untold number of residents.
That’s not ‘activism’ or ‘advocating for change.’ That’s suicide.

"The discord illustrates how complicated the nation’s struggle with its legacy of racial oppression and discriminatory policing has become after the killing of George Floyd and the coronavirus crisis magnified longstanding and widespread racial disparities," the Times reported, adding that the differences of opinion explain why the city council has not moved ahead with calls to dismantle the NYPD.
Laurie Cumbo, a Black councilwoman from Brooklyn who is majority leader of the council, characterized calls to defund the police a “colonization” pushed by white progressives. Robert Cornegy Jr., a Black councilman also from Brooklyn, meanwhile, called the movement “political gentrification.”
Well, those two descriptors seem a bit racially motivated and inappropriate. But the fact remains not all ‘persons of color’ want to get rid of police officers, and that is especially true in our country’s largest cities.
