BLM Co-Founder Calls on Biden to Back a Crazy Progressive 'Civil Rights' Bill
Quote:Black Lives Matter co-founder Patrisse Cullors on Friday penned an OpEd in Teen Vogue calling for the next president to back the BREATHE Act, something she calls "modern-day civil rights legislation." Of course, the major backers behind the legislation are Squad members Reps. Ayanna Pressley (D-MA) and Rashida Tlaib (D-MI).

Specifically, Cullors says there needs to be "holistic treatment" for things like drug dependency and mental health issues and an end to the cash bail system "that punishes people for being poor." The BLM leader takes issue with mandatory minimums and "over-policing."

"The BREATHE Act is a legislative love letter to Black people," she wrote of the legislation that has yet to be introduced in Congress.

Here's what she said the legislation does:

It starts by divesting federal resources from vehicles of harm and punishment like policing and incarceration. That means slashing enormous police budgets. That means decriminalizing drug use and repealing other federal laws that have for too long been used to disproportionately criminalize Black women, children, and families. BREATHE will put us on the road to police and prison abolition, letting our loved ones out of federal prison and immigration detention facilities and building nurturing reentry systems to welcome them home and put them on the path to success and citizenship.

... BREATHE will provide organizations rooted in their communities with the funds to create public safety systems uniquely tailored to their community’s needs and incentivize states to decarcerate and defund.

Finally, BREATHE seeks to address past wrongs. We want to radically reimagine public safety and take our communities in a new direction, but we cannot gloss over 400 years of harm. BREATHE will study and establish reparations programs, fulfill the federal government’s commitments to indigenous people, and build more accountability in our democracy by expanding the franchise and rooting out the ghosts of Jim Crow.

According to the proposal, the BREATHE Act would:

Dramatically change policing by outlawing "tear gas, rubber bullets, pepper bullets, pepper spray, flash bangs, long range acoustic devices (LRADs), Stingrays, lasers, and any other 'less than lethal' forms of crowd control" as well as drones, body cameras, tasers and facial recognition software.

Prohibit law enforcement agencies from having joint task forces (like drug enforcement, border enforcement and gang enforcement).

No law enforcement officers on public or private schools, collages and universities, medical facilities, courthouses at every level, Social Security offices or Congressional district offices.

Reduce nationwide prison populations across the country by at least 50 percent in five years and "complete decaraceration" within 10 years.

It sounds like "defund the police" is a movement that's here to stay.

“Modern Day Civil Rights” means nothing to me aside from “We support criminals and hate the rule of law”.

It's time to call out BLM. What did they spend there 1/2 billion dollars on? Where are the programs? Where is the progress?

It is time to embarrass them publicly and make corporate America explain their donations.

Lots of schools are just doing "RACISM'S BAD" or other BS like that. I've seen some teams not have anything on their helmets like that. Some leave it up to the players where it's about 1/2 & 1/2. Memphis is the only one I've heard openly admitting their Marxist.

The other day my pharmacist was wearing a Black Lives Matter pin. Ugh, I wanted to say something

Take police out of courthouses and you will lose all your judges.

But you might not have to worry about that because if this passes you’re going to lose all your police.

The federal government has no control over state and local police.

Unless you change pharmacies I suggest you keep it to yourself. Remember, people in those places love communism, we have one here. No telling what they would do...for the cause.

I would change pharmacies and give no reason.

Well, so long as the “collages” are safe, sure.

Let the nut bags have the rest.


Can’t wait til they poll test this garbage through Anacostia, Harlem, Compton, E. St. Louiee , Bal-mor, and etc.

These people are certifiable.

That’s the point. Burn it down so you can remake it in your image. A national police force much like the SS that is under control of the deep state. Sound kooky? Just listen and believe them when they tell you what they are going to do.

obama “we have to have a national police force. Just as well funded, just as powerful as our army”. It took me digging deep on YouTube to find this. Believe them when they tell you what they want to do.

Why don't they mention how abortion disproportionatey impacts black women and children anywhere in there? Why dont they question why the percentage of blacks in this country has not increased significantly since the early 1900's?

This won't go anywhere. All the opponents have to do is call out this BLM founder for being a marxist and point to surveys that show that the majority of the country does not want to defund the police or any of our LE agencies.

I'm not sure that even the dems would go for this because now their house majority is the smallest since 1902. There have been intraparty squabbling that stuff like "defund the police" and "socialism" caused their candidates to get wiped out in this election. They are dumb but not quite that dumb.
