Letter to the editor: Predictions have consequences

Hawk Newsome, co-founder of Black Lives Matter, has “predicted” that if NYC Mayor-elect Eric Adams brings back the city’s plainclothes anti-crime unit there will be “riots” and “bloodshed.”

How can BLM or antifa or anyone get away with these threats? Because it’s allowed by the socialists in the media, blue cities and states, and the federal government. They have to declare all in opposition to their leftist agenda as “domestic terrorists,” and they always have the word “racist.”

Add this to their intent to push critical race theory on students and impose gun control, and calling the unvaxxed “killers.”

Don’t forget President Biden linking Kyle Rittenhouse to white supremacists before the facts were even in.

A jury of his peers have proven Rittenhouse to be “not guilty” of murder, affirming his and our God-given right to self-defense.

If the left continues these socialist policies and attempts to divide the nation, things will come to a head.

Now for my prediction: If the Democrats continue to disregard the Constitution and our God-given right to be free, Newsome may be correct. However, it will not go down as he envisions it.

To Newsome, socialists, media, politicians, BLM and antifa: You had better be careful what you wish for. We Americans are fed up. The silent majority is awake and mad as hell.
