Rep. Cori Bush Says “White Supremacy” Is To Blame For Tyre Nichols Death
Radical leftist House Rep. Cori Bush is openly blaming white people and “white supremacy” for the death of Tyre Nochols’ even though he lost his life at the hands of 5 black police officers.
“Tyre Nichols should be alive today. He should be playing with his four-year-old son,” she began in her new statement.
“He should be skateboarding and photographing sunsets. But instead, Tyre was brutally beaten to death by Memphis Police officers. And now, instead of seeing the photographs he took, the world watches Tyre crying out for his mother in his final moments of consciousness. Charging the officers who brutalized Tyre is not enough. Our country will continue to sanction the taking of Black lives with impunity until it embraces an affirmative vision of public safety and dismantles its racist policing system rooted in enslavement and government control. And let’s be clear: merely diversifying police forces will never address the violent, racist architecture that underpins our entire criminal legal system. The mere presence of Black officers does not stop policing from being a tool of white supremacy.“, she added.
As ridiculous as her blame game is, Bush wasn’t the only far-left figure to blame white people for Nichols’ death.
Van Jones wrote an op-ed solely blaming white people even though Nichols’ was killed by 5 black cops.
“From the King beating to the murder nearly three years ago of George Floyd, American society has often focused on the race of the officers — so often White — as a factor in their deplorable acts of violence,” Jones wrote. “But the narrative ‘White cop kills unarmed Black man’ should never have been the sole lens through which we attempted to understand police abuse and misconduct. It’s time to move to a more nuanced discussion of the way police violence endangers Black lives.”
Funny that he never said this before when it was “white on black” violence, but okay…
Jones then said that black people “are not immune to anti-Black messages,” telling readers that “Self-hatred is a real thing.”
“Black cops are often socialized in police departments that view certain neighborhoods as war zones. In those departments, few officers get disciplined for dishing out ‘street justice’ in certain precincts — often populated by Black, brown or low-income people — where there is a tacit understanding that the “rulebook” simply doesn’t apply,” Jones said. “Cops of all colors, including Black police officers, internalize those messages — and sometimes act on them. In fact, in Black neighborhoods, the phenomenon of brutal Black cops singling out young Black men for abuse is nothing new.”
“At the end of the day, it is the race of the victim who is brutalized — not the race of the violent cop — that is most relevant in determining whether racial bias is a factor in police violence. It’s hard to imagine five cops of any color beating a White person to death under similar circumstances. And it is almost impossible to imagine five Black cops giving a White arrestee the kind of beat-down that Nichols allegedly received,” Jones added.
Members of the left are also calling for violence against cops and white people.
On Friday evening, BLM leader Hawk Newsom called for violence after newly released bodycam footage showed 5 Memphis police officers brutally beating a 29 year old man by the name of Tyre Nichols. He also blamed “white supremacy” for Nichols’ death, even though the 5 cops who beat him were black.
“F**k peace! F**k peace!”, Newsom shouted. “Were they peaceful when they were stomping on brother Nichols head? When they were hitting him with that baton? Were they peaceful with Rodney King? Were they peaceful with George Floyd?”, he continued. “We ain’t never taking violence off the f—king table!”

“The only way we get ahead is through unity – but I’m not talking that kumbaya type of unity, I’m talking that ‘If you f**k with us, we f**k shit up type of unity”, he added.
“Blacks cops ain’t black, they blue. A pig is a pig whether they black, white, brown, Asian, or Haitian. A cop is a cop and they are upholding white supremacy,” he bizarrely claimed.
In the video below, protesters can also be shouting “kill these killer police”:

And to think that Joe Biden fully supports BLM. Very sad.
