Detroit’s police chief said Michigan Representative Rashida Tlaib (D) should resign after her calls for “no more policing.” This from oann.com.
It wasn't an accident. Policing in our country is inherently & intentionally racist.
Daunte Wright was met with aggression & violence. I am done with those who condone government funded murder.
No more policing, incarceration, and militarization. It can't be reformed.

Craig said Tlaib does not speak for minorities as a whole.
“You know what, if I made comments on par with her, they’d be calling for my resignation,” Craig stated. “Let her go. Who is she speaking for Charlie? Let me just say this. You talk about abolishing police incarceration and you talk about safe cities, what do you think the residents in Detroit want? I know, I speak with them. They’re reckless Charlie. Now is she representing the people or is she representing a fringe group?”
Craig also condemned Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) for telling protestors in Minnesota to get more confrontational if Derek Chauvin is not convicted of murdering George Floyd.
What crazy, destructive ideas: An end to policing in America and rioting as a way of bringing about meaningful change. Imagine, if you can, an America without police and continued rioting. Would not Tlaib and Waters’ own lives be brought under risk? These contemptible democrats continue to obfuscate and obstruct. A more viable solution would involve discouraging blacks from running from the police. Or perhaps discouraging blacks from breaking the law. What a novel idea!
What say you Def-Con News readers? This is yet another example of what has become an endless stream of proof that America is trapped in a two-tiered justice system. If Tlaib were a Republican and not of color (she was born to Palestinian immigrants) the democrats would certainly be calling for her resignation. And if the Republicans in congress possessed a backbone they’d be in unison calling for Mad Maxine’s removal from Congress.
