In 2015, BLM was exposed as being a "movement for what it is: a racist and a violent hate group that promotes the execution of police officers."  Reportedly, BLM's twitter feed contains photos of activists wearing shirts that say "Assata Taught Me" and invokes the words of the convicted cop killer Assata Shakur at “all its events".  Assata, also known as Joanne Chesimard, is a woman that shot and killed Werner Foerster, a New Jersey State Trooper back in 1973.  The man who killed two NYPD officers while they were eating lunch in their patrol car posted on his Instagram page, "Going to put pigs in a blanket" prior to carrying out his killings. When news of the NYPD slayings hit, BLM protestors chanted and celebrated, "Pigs in a blanket!" in Ferguson, NC.<ref>Katie Pavlich  | ''Townhall'', Exposing The Black Lives Matter Movement For What It Is: Promotion of Cop Killing, https://townhall.com/tipsheet/katiepavlich/2015/09/02/exposing-black-lives-matter-for-what-it-is-promotion-of-cop-jilling-n2046941, September 02, 2015</ref>

In May 2020, following the death of [[George Floyd]], the BLM was exposed to be devolving into a group promoting the destruction of the United States and the cherished values of the [[Founding Fathers]] after allegedly being infiltrated by the radical elements of [[Antifa]].  The BLM began promoting a campaign to #DefundThePolice, claiming they "demand acknowledgment and accountability for the devaluation and dehumanization of Black life at the hands of the police".<ref>Black Lives Matter, #DefundThePolice, https://blacklivesmatter.com/defundthepolice/?__cf_chl_jschl_tk__=2fddc8eb8604d172b8a25564f0f382c9244f155d-1592699319-0-AV7-5_wIiWv_RXFNZnGZRLUXp9cxzAqUL8U2RlPOr8DLNUCN1UrfU5PSp590OTQvVvDBap7yAtdZ6rIBGOVkc-EZSKffqoAg6wTqehs61NeFa7HGQUXD9pl68vp5b5c_w9yrhQphSPNxGqLvYAoksJxkvi6YolyFWCfIUi9G9QtLC2-95XFXGifZ6jNDn8eeeqU-kCum1gpW06QL78nZzUWo2A538Oxf7w1S31jEx3574vwParY4v-H_xb9_qzkcAcGpY2XtJSPJ823zYRi_g-E3DVemhhrurwB8RDwMTsflwCyf6XfgihngrG2uoJ0IcPqKYBv4UpYaMzMf-H0LccEItmhu-ytXxAMaXxMfalBF, May 30, 2020</ref>
