Im curious - most cops I see in DC are Black. How many of them are proud boy sympathizers.

MPD Lieutenant secretly feeding Proud Boys intel: https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2022/02/16/dc-police-tarrio-proud-boys-lamond/

MPD fistbumping Proud Boys while escorting them to a bar after a day of randomly assaulting people in the street and vandalizing a black church in DC: https://twitter.com/Curious_Kurz/status/1147182850132905984

And in fact every time Proud Boys came en masse to DC, they assaulted people, MPD just stood back and did nothing.

And this is all part of a bigger pattern of police getting cozy with Proud Boys. https://twitter.com/jsrailton/status/1371096606502756354

The examples you gave are of a white and Hispanic officer. You didn't answer OPs question about how black officers are PB sympathizers.

I never specifically said black officers are Proud Boys sympathizers. But meanwhile I DID give several points of evidence speaking to the fact that there are indeed Proud Boys informants, enablers, and sympathizers on the force. And one wonders why the black officers do nothing about it if they do indeed constitute "most" of the force, knowing full well that some of their own fellow officers cheered and fist bumped racists who vandalized black churches in their city. If they are "most" of the force then why are they bowing down to white supremacists? Particularly when they don't even hide it? I mean, that fist bump was in broad daylight, complete with cigar-chewing shit-eating grin. Why do black cops tolerate this bullshit? That's where the "blue line of silence" degenerates into bullshit with power held by a racist minority. Maybe that's the real kind of uncomfortable question that should be getting answered.
