Atlanta mayor calls for citizens to stop 'shooting each other' after murder of 8-year-old near BLM protest site

Once again we see the lies and the hypocrisy from the MSM and the Democrats/left. BLM is all about wrecking America and turning it into a leftist dream.

Bottoms is a total phony.


In an impassioned press conference Sunday night, Atlanta Mayor Keisha Lance Bottoms issued a full-throated call for citizens to stop "shooting each other up on our streets," after an eight-year-old girl was shot and killed on the Fourth of July near a Wendy's that has become a flashpoint of anti-police Black Lives Matter (BLM) protests in the city.

Bottoms, a Democrat who is considered a potential running mate for Joe Biden, made the remarks as she fought through tears -- and the nation endured a new bout of urban carnage. Sixty-three people were injured and 17 killed in Chicago, including two children, over the weekend; and in New York City, 44 were hurt and at least six killed.

“Enough is enough," Bottoms said. "Enough is enough. We have talked about this movement that's happening across America and this moment in time when we have the ears and the interests of people across this country and across this globe who are saying they want to see change. But the difference in this moment in time with the civil rights movement -- the civil rights movement, there was a defined, common enemy. We're fighting the enemy within when we are shooting each other up on our streets."

She continued: "You shot and killed a baby. And there wasn’t just one shooter; there were at least two shooters. An eight-year-old baby. If you want people to take us seriously, and you don't want us to lose this movement, then we can't lose each other."

"They say Black Lives Matter. You killed your own." Secoriya Williamson, father of 8-year-old Secoriea Turner, addressed the public during a press conf. today after his daughter was shot and killed last night while riding in a car w/ her mother in Southeast Atlanta.


How Sad.

What a vile woman to be in a position of leadership and to speak of a common enemy and the enemy within after failing so grossly in dealing with the truth of the matter. She failed to say their is no systemic racism and that police have a brutality problem across the board that she in fact would deal with and with police help. Instead she embraced lies.

So many "leaders" proving to be so deficient in the moment of crisis. The example of failure on the matter started with Obama/Holder. What ass hat clowns.

People like her and DeBlasio are doing this on purpose. We all know what would help these situations and that is allowing a police department to do its job.

I know it's crazy because who needs a police department.

If you actually care about black lives, stop supporting BLM.

I give the Mayor credit for speaking out against the narrative and telling some hard truth:


Bottoms said she wants people to have the same passion towards ending community violence that they have for police reform.

“We’ve had over 75 shootings in the city over the past several weeks,” Bottoms said. “You can’t blame that on APD [Atlanta Police Department].”



She may call for the same level of passion, but I am pessimistic about her getting it. The haters want the police blamed for everything, and they're unlikely to be moved off of that position.

I don't see what you're saying about Bottoms.
 
I thought it was obvious - She said you can't blame everything on the police.

This goes directly against the preferred narrative.
Only AFTER she's blown it and stark reality is knocking on the door. You tell me what else she could have said and kept up the preferred narrative?

She could have remained silent....Like other mayors.

Have you heard De Blasio or Lightfoot say "Don't blame the police?" Or Durkan?

For some unknown reason I'll remain uncharitable in the matter toward Her Honor, the right Mayor of Atlanta until she comes out and says, "You can blame me." And not create this nebulous external and internal enemy meme.

Who are the external enemies? Cops? White Americans who don't see systemic racism? Who are the internal enemies? Who is ultimately to blame for these "internal" enemies? She isn't saying our black selves being responsible. Will she admit to being an internal enemy? Does she not see HER direct fault?

I bet she thinks white people are more responsible for blacks shooting blacks right now than she is herself responsible.

I truly hope she can pull it off and quell the senseless violence and not become another Chicago in the making.

The death of two black felons has sure taken a death toll on black kids and one only 20 months old, where's BLM now? Yes, defund the police and past three weekends shootings and murders in Chicago will be the daily reports all across America and many of the deaths will be people that have nothing to do with either movement.
