Original Message The latest political initiative from Hollywood might be its most insane yet. Here’s the proposal from some of tinseltown’s brightest: How about we as a society decide to defund our police forces?

Yeah, real stunning stuff. In support of Black Lives Matter, A-list celebrities including John Legend, Natalie Portman and Lizzo have signed an open letter demanding that police forces in the United States be defunded as a response to “police brutality” and “systemic racism.”

The left claims that these societal ills caused the death of George Floyd at the hands of officer Derek Chauvin, an event that has led to nationwide protests. Though these protests, all done in the name of Black Lives Matter, have devolved into destructive rioting in many places, thus elevating the need for more police.

The irony of this initiative is especially potent with the recent news of the slaying of retired African American police captain David Dorn.

In addition to Legend, Lizzo and Portman, Empire star Taraji P. Henson, lefty diehard Jane Fonda and rapper Common provided their signatures to the letter, as did U.S. Women’s Soccer star Megan Rapinoe. Other famous people like Chrissy Teigen, actress Blake Lively, and musician The Weeknd have donated to the Black Lives Matter cause.

Consider the hypocrisy: all those "celebrities" have private, armed security to ensure their safety. They want YOU to die, because oh by the way, they don't want you to have any self defense firearms, either. This is absolute absurdity.
