So black cops are “white supremacists?”
Via Raw Story:
Baltimore police report that a dozen Black Lives Matter and Baltimore BLOC members were arrested outside the Hyatt Regency Sunday, where the Maryland Fraternal Order of Police was holding their biennial conference.
Some protesters refused to leave, blocking access to an escalator and chaining themselves to railings, according to WJZ.
The group Baltimore BLOC considers themselves to be a “grassroots collective of friends, families & neighborhoods united to rebuild communities & organize for kujichagulia,” which is the second of seven principles of Kwanzaa about self-determination.
The members also joined hands and carried signs that read “Abolish Racist F.O.P.” Later, they posted photos of those arrested using the hashtag #StopFOP about police brutality.
“We are targeting the FOP because we know that the FOP is not a Union,” the organization said in a press release. “The FOP is a ‘good ol’ boys club’ that prioritizes the legal protection for their officers over public safety and justice. They are a private institution whose primary purpose is to protect their members, not as workers, but rather as a protected class–above the law and unaccountable in their systematic brutality, misogyny, and racism.”
