On Tuesday, King explained that he spent the exorbitant sum to defend his family, because New York City “won’t even allow me to have a gun.”
So the BLM leader, who is highly influential in the movement to defund the police, is pro-second amendment.
You cannot make this stuff up.
According to the Washington Examiner, King used funds that were donated to his political action committee to buy the canine, citing concerns about “white supremacist threats”.

King wrote on Instagram Tuesday that he requires a guard dog because “New York City won’t even allow me to have a gun” and “New Jersey doesn’t have stand your ground laws and hardly allows you to even own guns.”
The purchase was announced after King’s Grassroots Law PAC paid $40,650 to a dog company for “contractor services.”
He added that the $40,000 is “not even close” to what it really takes to keep his family safe.
“I need you to know this so that you understand why our family not only needs a guard dog at home, but 24/7 security wherever we go,” King wrote. “White supremacists and people who’ve meant my family harm have now shown up to our last three homes. Multiple times.”
“I’ve had hundreds of death threats — including from police, military snipers, and white supremacist groups…So know this, when you see reports about the money it costs to keep me and my family safe, it’s nowhere near enough,” King added. “Not at all. Not even close.”
King’s Grassroots Law PAC is influential in the “defund the police” movement, having raised nearly $4 million to elect radical leftist politicians who will “fight to end mass incarceration and police violence.”
Scott Walter, president of the conservative Capital Research Center, says while no laws were broken, the purchase is a slap in the face to donors.
“This luxury dog expense may not be illegal for a PAC, but it shows little respect for King’s donors,” said Walter.
To all the idiots who believed and donated to BLM,this serves you right.
Poor dog.
What a shameless bastard!
BLM and CRT represent the vision of Barak Hussein Obama, a black supremacist and a shiite muslim. And this BLM “prince” wallowing in cash suddenly finds himself on the side with rich democrats and policy makers. He is like a mafia man who became legit. Just a few years ago a thug burning and looting, like a hamasnik that he is, and now, wait, a politician is born! BLM grew a political arm, or rather an organ. Now, he likes it all nice and legal and got something to lose. Ah I see. Scum.
did he get a black dog? he should use some money to get his daughter clothes without holes in them nebach
I wouldnt give that обезьянаa gun either
notice that he blames “the system” for having to spend $40k. when it’s on someone else’s dime, a $100 rescue dog, just “doesn’t fit his lifestyle”? gimme a break!
He is stupid. For this kind of money, he should have purchase at least 3 more dogs.
This just proves you cannot pigeon hole people. Just because somebody is BLM supporter does NOT necessarily mean he is anti gun, pro choice, or even anti Israel. People are way more complicated than that. It might be good for our society to remember this. He has every reason to fear for his life. Whether a 40K dog on his supporters’ dime is reasonable is a completely separate question.
the police should not be giving him death threats
