Congresswoman Cori Bush on Heroic Police Shooting of Knife-Wielding Ma’Khia Bryant: “Stop Killing Us and Our Babies”

There is something seriously wrong in the progressive mindset when a heroic police officer prevents a stabbing attack by shooting and killing the attacker with marksman accuracy as the attacker raises their knife to stab their intended victim–and police get blamed for killing the attacker.

Freshman Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO), representing St. Louis in Congress, added her comments to those on the left who think it is wrong for police to stop Black children from stabbing each other to death because of racism or something.

“Ma’Khia Bryant was a 16-year-old baby. She was shot and killed by police yesterday. This is why no single verdict can deliver justice. Convictions don’t save lives. Convictions don’t end violent policing. Stop killing us and our babies. Stop.”

Cori Bush has not tweeted about 13-year-old Nyaira Givens who was stabbed to death by another 13-year-old Black girl in Cincinnati Monday night.

Nor has Bush commented on the shooting death of 15-year-old Trevon Dickson who was shot to death in a gun battle with 15-year-old Nasir Ndiaye in Columbus Tuesday just an hour before the Ma’Khia Bryant incident.
