The co-founder of a BLM group in New York is threatening an “uprising” over vaccine mandates that will rival the George Floyd protests. I presume the uprising will be mostly peaceful like the George Floyd riots.
The Marxist/racist Black Lives Matter organization is threatening to take action to protest something that is harming all Americans. This is hilarious! For once they are on the right side of a legitimate issue. Vaccine mandates are a huge government overreach and are something that all Americans should refuse to tolerate.
The uproar began when three black women were refused entrance to a New York City restaurant because they would not provide proof of vaccination. Good for them! Unfortunately, that was the end of their good behavior as they proceeded to attack the hostess and were arrested (rightfully so) on charges of assault and criminal mischief.
This incident inspired Chivona Newsome, an organizer for BLM in New York to organize a protest at the restaurant. You go girl! According to Newsome: “72% of black people in the city between the ages of 18 and 44 are unvaccinated”. “So, what is going to stop the Gestapo, I mean the NYPD, from rounding up black people, from snatching them off the train, off the bus?” Classic. From there things devolved into the usual charges of racism and threats of violence.
Vaccine mandates are not racist. Like almost everything the left and certain organizations claim to be examples of racism, the charge in this case is false. Vaccine mandates represent a grotesque overreach of government and an assault on the basic rights of all Americans and should not be tolerated. But they are in no way shape or form racist.
I don’t condone violence or the idiotic charges of racism that are a staple of BLM and the left. I do hope that Newsome keeps her word and inspires an uprising against the vaccine mandates. The mandates and all the other abuses Americans have suffered at the hands of the government under the guise of the COVID crisis won’t end until Americans stand up and refuse to cooperate. Until Americans no longer give in to the fear mongering and misinformation promulgated by the media and the government. Chivona Newsome and friends could provide an entertaining start. Viva Newsome!
