According to a report, the Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) intends to sponsor a ceremony in the U.S. Capital to re-hang the offensive, anti-cop painting depicting police as pigs. Members of the Caucus are insisting that they are “defending the Constitution” by re-hanging the controversial artwork.
The news of the CBC’s intentions was made public by a January 9 tweet from Fox Business Network contributor Charles V Payne.
The painting depicting police officers as giant pigs pushing minorities around in Ferguson, Missouri, was originally hung by Missouri Democrat Lacy Clay in the tunnel of the Congressional Cannon office building of the U.S. Capitol complex. But it was recently pulled down by California Republican Duncan Hunter who said the thing fosters an “untrue narrative” that police don’t care about the public in general and minorities in particular.
“This false narrative portrays law enforcement professionals as posing a danger to the very communities we serve. That is untrue and this ‘art’ reinforces this false narrative and is disrespectful on so many levels,” Rep. Hunter said after he removed the offensive painting from the wall.
Is there no depth that these individuals will not resort to stir the Pot of Hate.
ReplyDeleteWay to keep racism alive and well!
ReplyDeleteThen they should hang the picture of all the Presidents with Obummer standing on the Constitution.
ReplyDeleteTime to put the stars and bars back up as well then...
ReplyDeleteSpray paint it or burn it.
ReplyDeleteCan anyone on this blog tell me WHY a Congressional BLACK Caucus is even allowed? It's Racist at best and should be abolished!!!
ReplyDeleteYeah, what is the White Caucus doing about it?? Nothing. If the stars and bars are offensive and can't be hung.....why can they hang this derogatory painting?
ReplyDeleteBc obama still runs the show .trump is enroute.
DeleteAll members of the congressional black congress should be hanged instead
ReplyDeleteIt's okay to have a congressional black congress because they are black. There should be a congressional white congres , but the liberal white lawmakers(democrats) would say that would be racist
ReplyDeleteThis United States is upside down. With the govt. funding the painting "Pis Christ" with taxpayer dollars I'd say
ReplyDeletepi$$ on this despicable painting supported by this despicable caucus.
How about time to rehang the confederate flag?
ReplyDeleteThrow it In the garbage PERIOD.
ReplyDelete10;49 good point.
ReplyDeleteDo they consider the Female African American Master Sergeant Police Officer in Orlando who was killed by a wanted felon last week as well as the African American Motorcycle Officer also killed while responding to her request for aid to be a pig also?
ReplyDeleteWAIT WAIT WAIT.......... what about the rebel flag, People were forced to take that down. I guess if your white you, your constitutional rights dont have to be followed
ReplyDeleteWhat a bunch of garbage!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteFor the umpteenth time, it is not a pig. It is a wild boar. There is a description of this painting by a Lt. in a southern police dept. It is nothing like what the media is reporting, and so many blindly follow along.

No sir, YOU are the fool and a lazy one at that for not using the link I supplied to read what the painting actually represents. You and many others find it much easier to continue with the falsehoods that this painting is disrespectful to cops, people of color, etc.
I have done everything I could to educate others about the true meaning of this painting. I will not take anyone by the hand and read it to anyone like a bedtime story.
The choice is yours, and anyone else who wishes to be enlightened. Or you can ignore it and continue to be ignorant.
Actually, I find this artist to be much more intelligent and insightful than most of the commenters.
And Joe, I see this is at the end of the cycle and will disappear soon. I would like to ask to continue it so others may have the chance to read the article made by the southern Lt. policeman. Or maybe you could post his article itself and help educate? Thanks.
