CAL THOMAS COMMENTARY NOVEMBER 15, 2021
FOLLOWING THE DEATH OF GEORGE FLOYD LAST YEAR, I NOTICED A LOT OF VIRTUE SIGNALING BY WHITE
FRIENDS. SOME PUT THE BLACK LIVES MATTER FLAG ON THEIR SOCIAL MEDIA PAGES.
PERHAPS THEY ARE HAVING SECOND THOUGHTS ABOUT THE MARXIST ORGANIZATION. AT A MEETING
WITH INCOMING NEW YORK CITY MAYOR ERIC ADAMS, BLM LEADERS THREATENED RIOTS AND BURNING
OF BUSINESSES IF ADAMS FOLLOWS THROUGH ON HIS PROMISE TO PUT MORE POLICE – INCLUDING
UNDERCOVER COPS – ON THE STREETS. BLM CO-FOUNDER HAWK NEWSOME TOLD ADAMS, WHO WAS A
POLICE OFFICER FOR 22 YEARS, EVERYBODY TALKS ABOUT ‘GOOD COPS’. WE DON’T BELIEVE IN GOOD
COPS.”
IF YOU ASK PEOPLE MOST AFFECTED BY CRIME – THAT WOULD BE MINORITY NEIGHBORHOODS AND
BUSINESS OWNERS, THEY BELIEVE IN GOOD COPS AND MORE COPS. IF RIOTS BREAK OUT AGAIN IN NEW
YORK, ADAMS SHOULD START WITH ARRESTING AND JAILING THE BLM LEADERS WHO ARE THREATENING
VIOLENCE. IF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT CAN SEND PEOPLE TO PRISON FOR THE JANUARY 6 RIOT AT THE
CAPITOL, NEW YORK CITY CAN DO THE SAME IF BLM INCITES LAWLESSNESS. TOUGH ON CRIME IS BACK AS
A MAJOR ISSUE. I’M CAL THOMAS.
