BREAKING NEWS – Washington, D.C. – U.S. Rep. Maxine Waters, D-Calif., showed up at an anti-police brutality protest in Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, saying demonstrators needed to “stay on the street,” demanding justice until police reform becomes a reality.
“I’m going to fight with all of the people who stand for justice,” Waters told reporters shortly before an 11 p.m. curfew. “We’ve got to stay on the streets and we’ve got to get more active, we’ve got to get more confrontational! We blacks don’t need cops! We ought to burn our own homes and businesses to the ground! That should smoke the cops out of our neighborhoods. Smoke’em out! And when the police return and see our communities in smoldering ashes, they’ll know then that they can no longer push us around! Trust me, I know how to deal with white people!”
