AOC-backed leftist group honors several cop killers
AOC has previously given her support to a Black Lives Matter organization that celebrates murderers.
The Squad and AOC have expressed support for a convicted cop-killer.
“The Movement for Black Lives, which has been touted by progressive Democrats like New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, has honored multiple convicted cop killers,” Fox News reported.
"Black August is when we commemorate the lives of our fallen freedom fighters and political prisoners, prisoners of war, and exiles,” the BLM group told supporters in a text message.
Fox News reported further:
The text message continued by talking about what activists and social justice organizations can do during "Black August" — and it mentioned signing clemency petitions for Mutulu Shakur and Sundiata Acoli. Shakur is a former Black Liberation Army leader who was the mastermind behind several armed robberies in Connecticut and New York. In 1981, the Brinks robbery resulted in the slayings of an armed guard and two police officers. Acoli was convicted of murdering New Jersey State Trooper Werner Foerster during a 1973 traffic stop.
The Squad has pushed for defunding the police -- while they spend money on private security.
Far-left radical Cori Bush, a Missouri Democrat, said that she needs to spend money on private security because of who she is, but neighborhoods should see their local cops defunded.
Do you think AOC should apologize to police officers? Do you think Black Lives Matter is radical? Let us know below!
