The people of El Paso, Texas flooded City Hall Tuesday morning to support their Chief of Police, Greg Allen, who came under fire by local officials after he called Black Lives Matter a “radical hate group.” Allen’s comments followed last Thursday night’s massacre of Dallas police that left five officers dead and nine others wounded.
The officers were killed while defending protestors who peacefully protested against police. While the protestors were not blamed for the shooting committed by Micah X. Johnson, Allen voiced his feelings about the how Black Lives Matter stirred up hatred for law enforcement.
“Black Lives Matter, as far as I’m concerned, is a radical hate group,” Allen said after a press conference Friday to local reporters. “For that purpose alone I think the leadership of this country needs to look a little bit harder at that particular group. The consequences of what we saw in Dallas is due to their efforts.”
