We often wish and hope for a politician to put aside political jargon and side speak in order to talk and relate as a typical person in the community. One that is fed up with shenanigans of the police and legal departments abusing black people on a daily basis.
Our dreams have come true in the form of Nebraska State Senator Ernie Chambers.
Chambers spoke the raw, uncut truth during a legislative hearing on March 20th in his state.
Chambers said you don’t have to go half way around the world to encounter the ISIS mentality if you are black. All we have to do is go out into our neighborhoods where the American police force terrorize black people each and everyday. And truth be told, he didn’t lie and any sane black person would verify this reality.
“My ISIS is the police,” Chambers, an independent, said, adding police can get away with shooting people if they “think” they’re going to do something — like pull a weapon.
“The police are licensed to kill us — children, old people,” he said.
Chambers is the longest service State Senator representing North Omaha.
Much of what has been happening in his district has been happening to black people all around this country, not just Ferguson, MO or Samford, FLA. Each and every black neighborhood in this country feels terrorized by the police and we are glad someone in politics is finally voicing the frustrations of the community.
“I wouldn’t go to Syria, I wouldn’t go to Iraq, I wouldn’t go to Afghanistan, I wouldn’t go to Yemen, I wouldn’t go to Tunisia, I wouldn’t go to Lebanon, I wouldn’t go to Jordan, I would do it right here,” Chambers, who is black, said. “Nobody from ISIS ever terrorized us as a people as the police do us daily.
”
Chambers even took things one step further and eluding to not having a gun for his political opponents, but the police.
“If I was going to carry a weapon, it wouldn’t be against you, it wouldn’t be against these people who come here that I might have a dispute with. Mine would be for the police,” he said. “And if I carried a gun I’d want to shoot him first and then ask questions later, like they say the cop ought to do.”
Not too sure if you want to be out advertising that you would be willing to shoot a cop, but there are plenty of black people in the black community that are growing tired of hearing about the latest unarmed, black man and woman killed by the police who was “suppose to be protecting themselves”, but turns out something different and the judicial system does nothing about.
A people can only take so much before the breaking point.
SOUND OFF: What do you think of the Senator’s comments and do you compare the actions of American police to the terrorist group ISIS?
