Radical Rep. Rashida Tlaib: 'It's Time to ABOLISH Policing’

Rashida Tlaib says its time to abolish policing

Democratic Rep. Rashida Tlaib has declared that it is time for the Biden administration to completely defund and abolish policing in the United States.

Following the shooting of Duante Wright, Tlaib took to twitter to announce that policing “can’t be reformed.”

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.

Twitchy.com reports: Just for the record: Tlaib is stating as a fact that the officer who shot Wright didn’t do it accidentally, right?

I agree. Everyone should join themed gangs like in The Warriors and settle their disputes with street violence.

Actually, a lot of people agree and are asking her to do something about it as a member of Congress.

I hope you lose a primary for this statement

That word "inherent" does not mean what you think it does.
— Dennis Wingo (@wingod) April 13, 2021

This is such a bad take.
— tom (@uspolitical87) April 13, 2021

Looking forward to your proposals for alternatives … maybe elected leaders shouldn’t put out public statements borne more out of anger than actual thought?
— Yoni Fife (@yonifife) April 13, 2021

Sounds like a call for total anarchy. I wonder if Twitter will remove this post.

It’s pretty rich Tlaib says this from behind fencing with razor wire and surrounded by the National Guard.

Will Rashida advocate for no security/police presence at the capitol?

For the record, I "liked" this tweet to be able to save it and screenshot it and send it to my buddies. Insanity is a strange look.

It would be best for you to step down from congress. This is a completely irresponsible statement by you.

No more policing and incarceration? Seriously embarrassing that this is an elected official

Lead by example, dismiss the National Guard protecting the Capitol.

Does that include the Capitol Police?

When the Capitol Police executed Ashli Babbit, was that inherently and intentionally racist?
— Valoric Fire (@GorhamHarland) April 13, 2021

Who’s gonna enforce those gun laws you want passed?
— Blooshier (@Blooshier) April 13, 2021

Those weren’t even laws and weren’t passed by anybody.
