U.S. Representative Cori Bush (D-MO) announced on Sunday that “Independence Day is a celebration of freedom for “white people” only, claiming that black people “still aren’t free,” while calling to end “police violence” and “health care, housing, and education apartheid.” Goodness, the poor suffering member of Congress

She claimed the freedom celebrated on Independence day applies only to “white people.” “We know what our own freedom looks like,” she continued. “End the slavery permitted under the 13th amendment. End the War on Drugs. End police violence. The Thirteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution abolished slavery and “involuntary servitude except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted.”

So if a black person is convicted of murder or robbery, they shouldn’t have to go to prison because they are black?

Black people should just get to take whatever drugs they want? Police don’t get to protect themselves or the public? She also wants to “end health care, housing, and education apartheid.” She can’t find a doctor, or an apartment, or can’t afford a house? Last I heard congress members got pretty hefty salaries.

I’m sorry, but this woman, serving in the United States Congress as a representative for the state of Missouri is bellyaching because she suffers from racial prejudice? That is very revealing, but not quite in the way she intended.
