200 people stuffed themselves into Mickey’s Country Cafe for an Iowa town hall meeting this past Wednesday to see Republican candidate Chris Christie. Controversially made the statement
“I want the Black Lives Matter people to understand: Don’t call me for a meeting. You’re not getting one.”

These harsh words come off the back of Democrat hopeful Hilary Clinton privately meeting with the group last month while in Washington D.C. for the National Council of Negro Women.

Christie took much of his meeting to attack Hilary and that’s how the Black Lives Matter topic came up.

During the meeting a mother of two police officers asked Christie what he would do to support law enforcement. He was quoted as saying:

“I think all lives matter,”
and went onto say:
“But let me tell you this: When a movement like that calls for the murder of police officers…no President of the United States should dignify a group like that by saying anything positive about them, and no candidate for president, like Hillary Clinton, should give them any credibility by meeting with them, as she’s done.”
Christie’s stance against the group is in line with other criticism that they encourage the killing of police officers however the group strongly deny this claim.
