Marquette Feminist Group: Don’t Call the Cops If You Are in Trouble

Marquette Empowerment, which posted this on their Facebook timeline, is the same group that vandalized an anti-abortion display on campus back in 2016.

In 2017, they demanded that conservative speaker Ben Shapiro be banned from campus.

They are, to be blunt, a rather nasty, intolerant bunch.

How Silly

But do they even begin to understand how silly this post is? Probably not. The meme claims “calling the police often leads to unnecessary escalation and may lead to the brutalizing and even killing of the victims themselves.”

So if somebody is trying to break into your house, the LGBTQ+ Resource Center are just the people to do something about it.

If you hear shots in your neighborhood, the Suicide Prevention Hotline absolutely needs to come out immediately.

Why Demonize the Police?

Which bring up the larger question: why does the left demonize the police?

They know perfectly well that crime is absurdly high in inner-city black neighborhoods. The Milwaukee Journal-Sentinel Homicide Tracker tells the story:

So they are on the horns of a dilemma. Either they admit to a massive amount of dysfunction in the black community, or they pretend that the problem is all those racist cops.

Since they cannot and will not admit the former, they have to claim the cops are the problem.

Which means the real problems will not be addressed. Which they don’t particularly mind, since they care more about posing as social justice warriors than about black lives.
