Progressive filmmaker Michael Moore, capitalizing on the civil unrest brewing throughout the nation, unleashed a series of specific “demands” via Twitter on Thursday as an antidote to what he sees as the mistreatment America’s black population.
The violent riots in Baltimore, no doubt, provided the perfect opportunity for Moore’s latest spurt of grandstanding furor. He demanded that all African-American prisoners incarcerated for drugs or nonviolent offenses be released from prisons effective immediately, and police be stripped of their guns.
Here is the tweet that started his rant:
Imprison u, shoot u, sever your spine, crush your larynx, send u to war, keep u poor, call u a thug, not let u vote. But u can sing for us.

Perhaps in a fit of (feigned?) anger, Moore then released his step-by-step action plan to right the wrongs of the social injustice he feels is inflicted upon poor communities by police – the same communities run by the Democratic party for decades.
Here’s my demand: I want every African-American currently incarcerated for drug “crimes” or nonviolent offenses released from prison today.

And the rest who r imprisoned- I dont believe 50% of them did what they’re accused of. Lies. Greed. A modern day slave system. Poor whites 2

Next demand: Disarm the police. We have a 1/4 billion 2nd amendment guns in our homes 4 protection. We’ll survive til the right cops r hired

Local cops now militarized. Founding Fathers said NO army policing on our soil. Why do cops have tanks? Oh, right – the Enemy: The Black Man

It’s interesting how Moore invoked the Founding Fathers and championed Second Amendment rights when it suited HIS narrative. Too bad his narrative lacks any inkling of common sense, which did not go unnoticed.
Social media backlash to the seasoned grandstander’s absurd demands was swift and justified.
Wait! You’ve been screaming for years we shouldn’t have guns because the police do! @MMFlint

@MMFlint I am a liberal…and that is STUPID…Mr. Moore, sometimes you only hurt the discussion…

Sometimes?
@MMFlint Good idea, lard ass. Leave the decent people in Balt, Chi, and other Dem hell-holes at the mercy of the violent thugs you support!

@MMFlint Soooo… Release the inmates and then disarm the police. This could not possibly go terribly wrong very quickly.

@MMFlint Now you’re quoting the founding fathers? FYI, they were also against socialism.

@MMFlint mike, i think the problem you have is your overwhelming guilt over making millions by exploiting tragedy, look within one day

Even a few police officers had words for Moore, including one famous African-American.
