'Pigs in a Blanket' Chant at Black Lives Matter Protest Riles Police
KSTP.com ^ | 8/31/15 | Jennie Lissarrague

A chant heard Saturday at the Black Lives Matter protest outside of the Minnesota State Fair has police outraged.

Protesters were captured on camera yelling "pigs in a blanket, fry 'em like bacon" during the march in St. Paul. The chant was viewed by some law enforcement members as targeting police officers.

St. Paul Police Federation President Dave Titus said in a Facebook post that the chant promotes death to cops. He scolded the public officials who praised the march and the St. Paul Police Department’s response, saying, “Any city official claiming this march was a success or a positive example of people expressing their beliefs – remember, you represent me also. And if you think chants like this are appropriate – you disgust me.”

Minnesota Police and Peace Officers Association Executive Director Dennis Flaherty also weighed in on the chant, calling it “deplorable and threatening.”

I heard this crap on the radio this morning.

Fact is there are hundreds if not thousands of folks wanting a war, a showdown.

Sad to see... but less for me.

If I were the cops I would just leave, warn the vendors, exhibitors, shut down the fair, etc and move on. With crap like that going on how can safety be guaranteed?

“The chant was viewed by some law enforcement members as targeting police officers”

...SOME!? “Pigs”?! “fry ‘em like Bacon”?! Any police officer that says they are being targeted will instantly be placed in the “racist” category.

So taunting the police is how BLM retards think they should “communicate” their “issues.”

Rashad Turner ought to be fried.

Let's see if Rashad needs help down the road. Let the "pigs" take the call and mosey, very slll-o-ww-llly, to where Rashad needs help. Perhaps arriving just about the time the bus comes to scrape his worthless hide off the street and bag him.

Maybe Minnesota should stop clearing the decks for liberals and the Left all these years.

In TX we appear to be the battleground even though/while we do our best to clear out the Leftist trash.

Those particular “Black lives” do NOT matter. I’d just as soon see those BLM useless feeders caught in a Chicago crossfire. Let their homies cover their azzez.

They don't know what their issues are....Justice for criminals isn't exactly the best calling card...except of course to other criminals....

I'll just stay on this side of the law who contribute to society rather then burn it down and rob it...

"Words" don't mean anything?

Then why, O Leftist seers, why does "nigger" and "coon" drive you all to blind rage and torch city?

Hmmmmm?

Hypocrites?

Yeah, Big Time!

I bet other Communist dictators have tried to erase the thin blue line.

...Doesn't Obama EVER have an original idea?

As I posted earlier on another forum:

What you redneck-trailer-park-livin’-cracker-hicks see as a threat against cops, is merely enthusiasm by equality activists for the breakfast menu.
