Islamist Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN) Incites Minneapolis Politicians To Rally Around Abolishing The Police Department: The Red-Green Alliance In Plain View

INTRODUCTION BY ADINA KUTNICKIAkin to radical revolutionaries across the world,  domestic terrorists in America hone their tactics through ever-evolving guerrilla warfare — be it learned through comrades overturning a fledgling democracy into a red-aligned dictatorship, or inside an Islamic hell-hole that is Allah-bent in securing its iron-fisted control. But what doesn’t change is the main goal: political upheaval through hit and run terror tactics.

But, as always, the main obstacle in their path is law enforcement — that which is meant to enforce law and order; without which a rapid descent into chaos is ensured. And it is out of such terror-imposed upheavals that militias — from the ranks of this and insurgency — take over the streets, and so much more!

And this is where the likes of Islamist Rep. Ilan Omar — yes, fellow jihadi-lover, Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) is totally on board with calls to “Defund the Police” a.k.a. “Abolish the Police” — merges with “AOC” and her Marxist “vision” for America, inexorably, it is the merging of the red-green axis!

Of course, the sane and rational voices that are still out there — true, a paltry few, two of whom are found below — understand what’s what and what is at stake, that is, if the totalitarian-leaning left in Congress jump on board the domestic terror bandwagon and commence with “Defunding the Police!” 

 

 

SEAN HANNITY (HOST): So clearly in the new radical far left socialist Democratic Party, it is now officially woke to abolish the police. Today, Byron York, he brought up a really good point in his tweet writing “well maybe it’s time for some enterprising blue state municipality to go bold and eliminate its police force. Let’s see what happens.” Comrade De Blasio, how about we’ll start with you. How about you give up the entire police department in New York, give ’em, well, two weeks paid leave, including, by the way, the armed police officers protecting you and your family every day. And after all, Black Lives Matter they’ve already promised they’re going to fill the void. That they will patrol the streets — armed militias if you want to call it, armed peace officers, really? The same Black Lives Matter group that frequently has called for violence against the police.

The city possesses one of the highest violent crime rates in the country, with twice the national average of robbery, rape, and assault.

In response to the unrest following the death of George Floyd, Ilhan Omar today became the first member of Congress to publicly support abolishing the police force of Minneapolis. The statement came in response to City Council members rallying behind the previously unthinkable policy.

Ilhan Omar

It’s time to disband them and reimagine public safety in Minneapolis.

I’m a Minneapolis City Council Member. We Must Disband the Police—Here’s What Could Come Next

On Tuesday, May 26, we woke up to find a video circulating of a Minneapolis Police officer named Derek Chauvin kneeling on the neck

An article published at Time by City Council member Steve Fletcher argues that because of their inability to reform, he is supporting the call to “disband our police department and start fresh with a community oriented, non-violent, public safety and outreach capacity.”

The policy suggests increased use of medical responders, and the creation of vague “unarmed, community-oriented street teams.” The policy does not address how violent crime will be handled in the city. Minneapolis holds one of the highest crime rates for American cities in the country, with rape, robbery, and property crime at twice the national average. Fletcher goes on to complain about how police forces were unable to protect local businesses.

In addition to the support of Rep. Omar and Fletcher, numerous council members have backed disbanding the police, including the Minneapolis Council President, the Chair of Public Safety, and Council members Jeremiah EllisonJeremy Schroeder, and Alondra Cano. The group is currently controlled entirely by members of the Democratic Party, and one member of the Green Party. None so far have come forward to oppose the policy.

This movement is at the forefront of a nationwide push by groups like Black Lives Matter. While Omar is the first congresswoman to publicly support it, related proposals are gaining steam. More “moderate” ideas, such as defunding law enforcement and redirecting their funds to social welfare spending have also gained traction. Progressive Rep. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan, just yesterday announced her support for the policy. Many more congresspeople and local politicians on the Left have yet to make their position clear on either plan, likely weighing the political headwinds of the unprecedented policy.

Slashing law enforcement’s reach is well documented to show increased crime rates, as disincentives from breaking the law vanish. This can even lead to more arrests in the long term. Historical studies from 1960-2010 show that on average, every $1 invested in police results in $1.63 in social benefits as fewer murders are committed. As of now, no major studies exist on the effect of entirely removing the police department, as the policy has never been seriously considered for a major city before.
