Black Lives Matter protesters take to the streets

CIVIL-RIGHTS LEADER: BLACK LIVES MATTER 'ANGRY, GODLESS, HATEFUL'

'We have total chaos in our country today

A black civil-rights activist is slamming Black Lives Matter, which has booed speakers off stage just for saying all lives matter, for its increasingly violent actions and radical rhetoric.

“The Black Lives Matter group is an evil group which is now being promoted as the next civil-rights movement,” said Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson. “They are being held up as a good organization but they are no different from the KKK or the skinheads.”

Peterson, a WND columnist, is the author of the upcoming book “The Antidote” and the founder of the civil-rights organization BOND (Brotherhood Organization for a New Destiny.) Peterson was shocked at what he sees as the media’s consistent and dedicated support for what he called a “radical” group.

“Black Lives Matter is an angry, godless, hateful group being held up as something good,” Peterson charged. He believes the group is only being emboldened by what he sees as the total collapse of law enforcement in the face of increasingly aggressive activism.

In the latest incident, Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti was chased out of a town-hall meeting by screaming protesters who blocked his car and even jumped on its roof.

Despite the mayor being surrounded by law enforcement, protesters operated largely unimpeded, triumphantly chanting and screaming as the meeting was shut down.

“We have total chaos in our country today,” said Peterson. “The authorities have just backed down.”

Peterson expressed disgust at how easily law enforcement allowed itself to be pushed around.

“You had a bunch of police officers there, you had the mayor’s protection group, and they allowed this radical black group of untrained, untamed black folks to run them off. They ran!

“And then Black Lives Matter followed them outside and one guy got up on top of the mayor’s car yelling and screaming. They ran the mayor out of his own town hall meeting, with the police surrounding him.”

Peterson believes there was a far better way to handle the situation – “drag these thugs to jail, not carry, drag them to jail and arrest these folks.”

Colin Flaherty, a nationally known reporter who has painstakingly investigated black mob violence, actually took some satisfaction in how the mayor was treated, arguing Garcetti’s lenient stance on crime and disorder brought his treatment on himself.

“The mayor of Los Angeles is among the chief offenders in perpetrating this problem,” Flaherty said. “During the community meeting to talk about crime, the mayor earnestly tried to explain to the Black Lives Matter protesters how he agreed with them that black people are relentless victims of white racism.

“But they did not care. Mayor Garcetti thought he was offering solutions. Black Lives Matter said he was the problem.”

Flaherty, the author of the book “White Girl Bleed A Lot: The Return of Racial Violence To America and How the Media Ignore It,” believes the problem is a lack of will rather than insufficient resources for law enforcement.

“The mayor traveled to the event with at least a half dozen security people. Even so, he allowed the Black Lives Matter mob to take over the stage, take his microphone, and ignore the audience. That was a perfect metaphor with how public officials around the country deal with black crime: They let it happen, hoping that sympathy with the ‘reasons’ for the crimes will stop the crime.

“In Los Angeles, that encouraged protestors to become more aggressive. More violent. Until the mayor had to flee the meeting early, surrounded by bodyguards. And in a larger sense, that is how black crime and violence is also treated in LA.”

Jack Cashill, a WND columnist and the author of the new book “Scarlet Letters,” says Democrats are in an awkward position when it comes to Black Lives Matter.

“The Black Lives Matter movement (BLM) can only thrive in progressive bubbles, like Los Angeles city government or college campuses like Wesleyan’s,” Cashill told WND. “When the movement ventures out into the real world, it causes problems for those who cannot be seen to discount it, Democratic politicians and college presidents most notably.”

Flaherty also believes Democrats have to supplicate themselves before Black Lives Matter as an electoral necessity.

“I was not surprised by how quickly the Democrats capitulated to the Black Lives Matter crowd, only because I keep my expectations low,” Flaherty joked. “This is an electoral fact: Democrats are in a panic about black turnout for 2016. We already know what happens when black voters stay home – as they do in off year elections – we see Republican landslides. And now that black voters have had a chance to vote for a black president, it is not clear if – or how – a white candidate can get that level of black turnout again.”

Indeed, the Democratic Party seems to be moving closer to the group, recently offering the organization the opportunity to host a special presidential town hall.

Cashill believes that might intimidate some Republican candidates, but Ben Carson and Donald Trump are close to immune.

Flaherty is more skeptical. He thinks candidates such as Marco Rubio and Rand Paul have already caved to Black Lives Matter. But he sees one man the group can’t intimidate – Trump.

“Trump, of course, is very good on this issue,” Flaherty said. “He has publicly stated that the Knockout Games have a racial component. And he stated that he would never let these protestors take his microphone and shut down his rally as they did with Bernie Sanders in Seattle.”

Cashill marvels at how the Black Lives Matter group, despite its militant tactics and activism, has received kid gloves treatment from the federal government.

“Of course, if a conservative group were half this disruptive, not just the IRS but the FBI would have been on its case a long time ago,” Cashill said.

But Flaherty believes the anger being stoked by Black Lives Matter will be horribly destructive for the Democrats long term.

“Black on white racial hostility is now mainstream,” Flaherty said. “We can see it in major media every day, and most often it goes unremarked. Even so, many liberal whites in the Democratic Party are in denial about how this black on white and black on Asian hostility is now part of their political DNA.

“If they have a debate, focusing on Black Lives Matter, it will be impossible for Democrats to disguise this racial animosity. That is because racial hostility is the central organizing feature of the Black Lives Matter group. Once more people realize this, it is going to be poison for lots of people connected to it. Not just in the presidential ticket, but all the way down in other races as well.”

It may not matter. As Jesse Lee Peterson observes, there’s evidence major unions and the public schools are now championing the Black Lives Matter movement and its goals. He highlighted a recent magazine cover from the official publication of the California Federation of Teachers championing “Black Lives Matter.” Inside, the magazine praised Black Lives Matter and other left wing political movements, including pro-homosexual activism.

“This is what they’re teaching your children in the public school children!” said Peterson. “You’re going to lose your children folks. They’re going to come out of the public school system, you’re not going to know who they are. That’s what’s going on in the public school system – Black Lives Matter. They’re not teaching them about reading, writing, and arithmetic, they’re teaching them to hate, to accept abnormal lifestyles, turn against what was right, turn against their parents.”

Peterson argues the solution is for strong men, especially black men, to rebuild their families.

However, he also believes Americans of all stripes need to strongly condemn Black Lives Matter and oppose any efforts to legitimize what he believes is a hate group.

"They're not good, they're not for the people," Peterson said. "They're an angry, racist, evil, radical political group.

"Why are you tolerating this?"
