Black Lives Matter Accuses Biden of 'Terrorizing' Communities More than Trump

Linkedin Share

Black Lives Matter is no happier with Biden in the White House and in fact they are saying that blacks are being “terrorized” even more now than under Trump.

I am not exaggerating, either. In a Tuesday tweet, BLM representatives slammed Biden for sending surplus military equipment to American police departments.

We all know that BLMers did their best to eliminate Donald Trump in 2020. But now that they got their wish and Biden won the White House by any means necessary, they are still not happy. They now want Biden to cancel provision 1033, a program created in 1997 under the National Defense Authorization Act that allows the government to pass used military equipment to civilian police departments.

BLM slammed Biden for not only refusing to cancel this program, but for ramping up the transfer of of military materiel.

The official Black Lives Matter website explained further: “The Law Enforcement Support Office, known as the 1033 Program, allows the transfer of surplus military-grade equipment to local law enforcement agencies across the country. It includes school and campus police, too.”

“Over $7 billion has gone to the law enforcement agencies since its creation under the Clinton administration,” BLM declared. “Disappointingly enough, the flow of military equipment to police under the 1033 Program has accelerated under the Biden administration — and based on recent reporting, police might just receive even more military equipment under the Biden administration than they did with the Trump administration.”

The post then called the police a bunch of “violent upholders of white supremacy.”

“Let’s make things abundantly clear: Military-style weapons and equipment have no place in our streets,” the post on the official BLM website stated. “They have no place in our communities and have no place in our schools or on our campuses. They especially have no place in the hands of police — violent upholders of white supremacy that have no regard for Black life.”

“With the stroke of a pen, President Biden can put an end to the dangerous practice of enabling and upholding white supremacy through the 1033 Program,” Black Lives Matter said in another reference to the police being racist.

It looks like BLM is still not happy despite getting everything they wanted out of the 2020 election.
