Mayor Ras Baraka announced Friday that he would seek to have the city establish a database of existing American hate groups and outlaw any actions they seek to conduct in the city. Hate groups would be defined as any that “vilify entire groups of people based on immutable characteristics such as race or ethnicity,” and would include Nazi groups, white supremacists and the KKK.
“For this country to heal, we must begin to legally challenge the insidious and dehumanizing tenets of white supremacy, once and for all. We must stand up forcefully against racism and have the courage to take on the legal challenges an ordinance such as this will attract,” Baraka said in a statement.
Here we go. Thought police. 20 years ago, no one would have considered such a statement acceptable enough to share in the media. But today, we can boast of politicians in public office that make stuffed toys appear brilliant. And this fool just added his mane to that list.
I hate white separatist as much as I hate the left.
But dude this is american we have the first amendment.
Just be sure to add in the antifa terrorists and the BLM rioters.
While I agree with the mayor it works both ways black radicals should also be banned
Are they also including Black supremacists hate groups like that of Louis Farrakhan and La Raza, a Mexican supremacists hate group?
This Mayor’s Father was Amiri Baraka a/k/a Leroi Jones, a noted anti-semite, who blamed the Jews for 9/11/01.
Sure. Nanci Pelosi lives with her millionare husband, Paul, in an exclusive all WHITE gated community. No blacks are allowed in Nanci’s neighborhood.
Ban all people from Newark. It could only help.
As is usually the case, he’d rather grandstand than do his actual job. Hey, Baraka, if “black lives matter” so much, how about dealing with the dozens of murders every year in your city (most of them of blacks by other blacks)?
But farrakhan eric Adams rav is fine right?
