Believe me when I say that I had never heard of rapper Lil Boosie until today. He’s apparently mildly famous (look at those gold chains) and also from Baton Rouge, LA. Being from the place where 3 police officers were ambushed and murdered on Sunday, Boosie decided to chime in on the killing. His assessment is that black people will continue to kill cops until there is justice and that’s just fine with him.
Lil Boosie made a video for TMZ, and while he pretends to condemn the recent anti-cop killings, he both excuses them and encourages more.
He starts out by saying the police ambush was deffinately inspired by the Alton Sterling shooting a week before. Sterling, if you remember, was killed by Baton Rouge officers while resisting arresting and trying to pull a gun on them. That shooting also inspired the Dallas police massacre in which 5 officers were murdered.
“People I been talking to, they upset about it, and it’s a lot of anger down there, a lot of people are angry down there. Everybody I’m talking to when I call home, they mad,†Boosie said of the Sterling shooting.
“They mad†that cops had to use deadly force to protect themselves against a dangerous and armed man.
“It’s just a bad position for a lot of people right now. It’s a bad position for the way we feeling down there. It’s a bad position for the police – they having fear. It’s just all out craziness right now,†he said.
Here’s where Boosie promises more cop killings if “justice†isn’t served in the justified police shooting of an armed black man:
“I don’t think it’s going to stop until they really start convicting officers for doing what they do. If they don’t start convicting officers of what they’re doing, it’s just going to keep on escalating,†Boosie.
And just what is that escalation going to be? An all out war against the police, that’s what.
