A
display created by Dartmouth College Republicans to honor fallen police
officers was torn down by Black Lives Matter activists and replaced
with a hateful message about honoring the "perpetrators" of anti-black
violence.
The Republicans reserved space on the campus bulletin board and
followed all school regulations. But the BLM radicals removed the
display without permission, saying that it was "offensive" to blacks
and "white supremacist."
At the bottom, the display said in big letters, “BLUE LIVES MATTER.”
This last part of the display appears to have outraged Black Lives
Matter supporters at Dartmouth, several of whom vocally complained on
Twitter and Facebook that the display was offensive and even “white
supremacist.”
But Black Lives Matter did more than just complain, they also took
action. The original display was torn down Friday morning, at about 11
a.m, and in its place almost three dozen sheets of paper were used to
cover the bulletin board, all of them carrying an identical message:
“YOU CANNOT CO-OPT THE MOVEMENT AGAINST STATE VIOLENCE TO MEMORIALIZE
THE PERPETRATORS.” At the bottom, each sheet also had the hashtag
“#blacklivesmatter” printed on it.
