To The Editor,
It is inexcusable that so many Democratic politicians, including U.S. Representative Chrissy Houlahan (PA-6), have failed to condemn the Black Lives Matter riots. These demonstrations began as peaceful protests but have evolved into destructive rampages that have caused untold damage to lives and property in numerous cities throughout our nation. Following selected Internet links provides a plausible explanation for their silence.
Although many involved in BLM are sincere in their concerns for the betterment and protection of black lives, there are others with far more nefarious purposes in mind. The BLM movement was created by three black Marxist females in 2013, one of whom (Patrisse Cullors) said in a 2015 video interview: “Myself and Alicia, in particular, are trained organizers. We are trained Marxists. We are super versed on ideological theories…” Marxists, aided by Antifa thugs, anarchists, and other miscreants, have turned the BLM “peaceful” protests into destructive mobs to achieve their goal of dismantling and reinventing America to conform to their own radical agendas.
BLM is a “cash cow” for the Democrats. Act Blue serves as an on-line fundraising instrument for progressive causes and Democratic candidates. The “DONATE” button on “blacklivesmatter.com” links to a branch of Act Blue. Similarly, “antifa.com” redirects to “joebiden.com” which has a “DONATE” button which links to another branch of Act Blue. Follow the money to understand why so many Democratic politicians have reprehensively refused to condemn the BLM riots. Remember that their “silence is complicity” and vote them out of office on November 3!
