The Left thinks all black Americans are on the Democrat bandwagon.
That thinking backfired in a major way in recent months.
And all hell broke loose after the Democrats’ anti-police squad got wrecked by this entertainment legend.
If a black American doesn’t agree with the Left on an issue, they’re called horrible names and told they’re not a real black person – as if an opinion is what dictates the color of someone’s skin.
Well, Democrats got a big shock after the latest example of a major black figure pushing back on the Leftists’ narrative.
Morgan Freeman spoke up about the BLM movement recently.
Black Lives Matter is falling apart from the inside.
More reports surface almost daily of the BLM leaders abusing funds and their power, but the organization continues to push for radical socialist policies.
Along with their radical Leftist positions, BLM also pushes the narrative that if you’re black and do not agree with them then you’re an Uncle Tom.
One of BLM’s biggest issues is defunding the police – it became the group’s rally cry throughout the summer of 2020.
BLM tells its supporters that police are racist, and only out to take down black Americans.
Shockingly, some cities around the country actually defunded their police and it turned out to be an epic failure.
Not surprisingly, crime rates skyrocketed and the very groups demanding the police be defunded quickly realized they had no more protection.
2020 was the most violent year on record for Chicago after its Leftist Mayor Lori Lightfoot defunded the city’s police department.
The idea of defending the very people who put their lives on the line to defend you is crazy, but BLM continues to push for it.
The Hollywood Left has joined progressive members of the “Squad” like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Rashida Tlaib in calling for police departments across the country to lose their funding.
But legendary Hollywood star Morgan Freeman does not support the idea of defunding the police.
The Oscar-winning actor is known for his long and successful career in Hollywood.
Recently, in an interview with Black Enterprise magazine, Freeman spoke out against the “Defund the Police” movement.
“I’m not in the least bit for defunding the police. Police work is, aside from all the negativity around it, it is very necessary for us to have them, and most of them are guys that are doing their job. They’re going about their day-to-day jobs. There are some police the never pulled their guns except in rage, that sort of thing. I don’t know,” Freeman stated.
Morgan Freeman supports efforts to train police officers in community engagement.
In fact, Freeman has donated $1 million to efforts that will help train law enforcement.
“It’s time we are equipping police officers with training and ensuring law enforcement is not defined only as a gun and a stick. Policing should be about that phrase ‘To Serve’ found on most law enforcement vehicles,” the A-list actor concluded.
The Left has no time for black Americans who do not fall in line with their radical way of thinking and although Morgan Freeman is correct, they will never admit to it.
