WestVirginiaRebel Posted July 10, 2016 Share Posted July 10, 2016 The Blaze: Former New York City Mayor Rudy Guiliani explained Sunday on CBS’ “Face the Nation” why he believes the Black Lives Matter movement is detrimental to the nation’s security and social climate. According to Guiliani, a movement like Black Lives Matter makes police officers targets by blaming them for complex social problems. He noted that all Americans, regardless of race, need to make a greater effort to understand the unique experiences and struggles of their peers. “Whites have to realize that African-American men … and boys have a fear of being confronted by the police because of these incidences,” Guiliani said, referring to the police-involved killings of two men this week in Louisiana and Minnesota. He added that another reality black Americans face is violence within the black community. “A black will die 1 percent or less at the hands of police and 99 percent at the hands of a civilian, most often another black,” he said. Guiliani noted that every 14 hours in Chicago a black person is killed by another civilian. “So if you want to deal with this, on the black side, you’ve got to teach your children to be respectful to the police, and you’ve got to teach your children that the real danger to them is not the police,” he said. “The real danger to them … are other black kids.” ________ Speaking truth to black power.
