Georgia state Rep. '''Vernon Jones''' was the focus of [[Democrat]] [[racist]] attacks for endorsing [[President Donald Trump]] in the [[2020 presidential election]].
Georgia state Rep. '''Vernon Jones''' was the focus of [[Democrat]] [[racist]] attacks for endorsing [[President Donald Trump]] in the [[2020 presidential election]]. Jones said of the [institutional racism]] and [[bigot]] within the [[Democratic party]]:
{{Quotebox|I can show them and reveal the where the true bigotry is. You know, they brag about being a party of openness and a [[big tent]], but not so for independent thinking. [[Black]] men and women with [[conservative]] leanings. We're not wanted about. But you know what? Ironically,
when we have [[white]] Democrats with conservative leanings, they're not called the same like I'm called, an outcast, an embarrassment to the party, I need to leave. When Congressman Jim Marshall and John Barrow, they get a free pass. But on [[African American]] to think independently, that's the most terrifying thought for any [[liberal]] right now.
For people like me to be independent thinkers, you know one final thing on that, too, when white Democrats vote [[Republican]], their elevated as [[Reagan Democrats]]. It's a good thing. But when African Americans do that and exercise their free thinking, all of a sudden 'you don't belong in the party, your an embarrassment, you don't represent our values,' and that's unfortunate. So I want to continue to pull that sheet off of them and exposed them....
We have to support [[law enforcement]] officers, those who who are the bad apples, we know what to do with them. Secondly, when you started talking about tearing down monuments, if you tear down a monument of [[Thomas Jefferson]] today, somebody's gonna want to tear down the monument of [[Martin Luther King]] tomorrow....We give literally millions of dollars to universities and nonprofit groups to go out on, dig, dig and dig and pull up symbols and statues of the past so we can learn about it. But here we are in 2020 with tearing them down. What are kids gonna know about come 2030 when those statues are gone?
...Clearly, Democrats have not come out and denounced a lot of these writers and protesters who were hiding behind [[Black Lives Matter]]. I'm beginning to wonder. Do black lives matter to [[Black Lives Matter]]?}}
Jones was referring to 8 year old Secoriea Turner, a little Black girl [[murder]]ed by Black Lives Matter protesters days earlier. Jones continued:
{{quotebox|There's so many different groups from [[Antifa]] to others, being funded by [[George Soros]], and these [[left wing]] groups really want to get rid of [[religion]], too. But they have infiltrated Black Lives Matter, and then when you look at the real purpose of Black Lives Matter is to push a [[transgender]] agenda. Now that's what they want to do. Fine. I have no problem with that. But all lives should matter. Clearly, black lives should be valued just as much as any life. Look at what is happening, a white police officer kills a black person, then there's massive demonstrations and [[riot]]ing. But what about when blacks kill blacks, like a little eight year old girl? That was not a police officer. What about him in [[St. Louis]] when that former police chief, who was doing his job was gunned down on the streets of St. Louis? Not by white officers. Where was the outrage from Black Lives Matter? [[Chicago]] last weekend, some 14 people killed, including a three year old, and a 13 year old this past week and [[Philadelphia]] 87 shootings and about 14 deaths on a Saturday night? This is not [[President Trump]]'s fault.
There's an issue at the local level to where local leadership is not doing what they need to do. }}
