D.C. Black Lives Matter Organizer Attempts to Equate Proud Boys Sign Destruction to Summer Riots

We reported yesterday about how members of the Proud Boys had taken some of the Black Lives Matter signs around Washington D.C. and destroyed them.

Today, Black Lives Matter D.C. co-organizer Nee Nee Taylor alleged that the pro-Trump protesters were able to do things like destroy Black Lives Matter signs because they were white.

Taylor believes that “If Black people and people of color was to act like this, they would have done what they’ve been doing since [the] George Floyd protests started”

“Tear gassing us, beating us and arresting us. That happened to none of the Proud Boys. The police was around and they done nothing to the white supremacists,” Taylor added, slandering the group.

Taylor blamed D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser and the police for not doing more to clamp down on the groups and said she wants Black Lives Matter Plaza to be a safe space.

“We want to advocate for BLM Plaza to be safe and express the values of what it means to us,” Taylor said and that she asked “the police, ‘Why are you allowing them to incite violence?’ They were coming to harass us and threaten us.”

Black Lives Matter D.C. was also upset after the #MillionMagaMarch when their signs were destroyed at that point and claiming that Mayor Bowser had an obligation to stop it.

The reality is, that in the summer, D.C. was a disaster area, with cars, businesses, and churches being set ablaze and businesses being forced to board up.

With the rallies over the weekend by Trump supporters, food trucks came out, people were selling different items in the streets, and there was no concern that there would be any damage beyond what was witnessed.
