Black Congressional Candidate: Protect Black Lives by Backing Police

A black congressional candidate is trying to persuade voters in his diverse New Jersey city that it’s time to try a new approach after the failures of the Democratic Party and Black Lives Matter.

Article by Art Moore from WND.

William “Billy” Prempeh wrote in a guest op-ed for the Gateway Pundit that “unlike Black Lives Matter, I will actually work to get justice and change the culture that is causing black lives to be taken on our streets.”

Born to parents who immigrated from Ghana and “sacrificed so much to give us the opportunity to thrive in this great land,” he describes himself as a “first generation American, U.S. Air Force Veteran and patriot.”

In a video on his campaign site, Prempeh insisted he does have “privilege,” “American privilege.”

“Being an American is hands-down the greatest privilege on earth,” he said. “And I’m so proud of our rich American history.”

After serving in the Air Force, he returned to find his hometown had “literally become a warzone.”

Politicians, he said, had allowed the city to be overcome by drugs, violence and “bad education.”

The “permanent elected class,” he said, doesn’t “care about us.”

See the video:

“I love this city, which I have lived in my entire life, and I can no longer sit by and watch it devolve into a dangerous warzone,” he wrote in his Gateway Pundit op-ed.

Violent crime in the city has skyrocketed 60%, and murders now are so commonplace it has become “personal” to him, noting a beloved and widely respected high school friend who was shot and killed.

The “culture” and attitude toward law enforcement needs to change, he wrote, with the lack of cooperation resulting in “a stack of unsolved cases, and subsequently no justice, for people like my neighbor and friend.”

“Where are the calls for justice for them, BLM?” he asked of Black Lives Matter.

“If this culture and attitude towards law enforcement doesn’t change, neither will our crime rates,” he said. “We need community involvement with our police and I will dedicate myself to inspiring it.”

He said his opponent, incumbent Democratic Rep. Bill Pascrell,  is siding with the far-left idea that “all police are inherently bad.”

Pascrell, he noted, has expressed support for removing qualified immunity and for defunding police departments.

“Of course, it is unclear if he genuinely believes that these policies would help our city or if he is just pandering to the extremes for votes,” Prempeh said. “Either way it demonstrates how out of touch he is with reality.”

When real black lives are being killed, including neighbors and friends, Black Lives Matter “is nowhere to be found,” he said.

“However, when there is something that can be exploited to stoke racial tension, with the help of a complicit media, they suddenly appear.”

He noted that BLM cofounder Patrisse Cullors is resigning after spending millions of dollars on real estate.

“I stand for law and order. I stand with the police. I stand with the people of the NJ 9th district. I believe that the best solution for our city is for all of us to work hand in hand,” he said.

“I am running for Congress to make sure we get justice for my friend Ravel Trejo and the many others who have been killed in our cities — something that Black Lives Matter and their supporters apparently could not be bothered with.”

New Conservative Network Seeks Crowdfunding Help

They say we have to go big or go home. We’re trying to go big and bring the patriotic truth the the nation, but we need help.

Readers may or may not realize that over the past year, we’ve been bringing more conservative news and opinion outlets under our wing. Don’t take our expansion as a sign of riches; all of the “acquisitions” have been through sweat and promises of greater things to come for all involved. As a result, we’ve been able to bring together several independent media sites under a unified vision of preventing America from succumbing to the progressive, “woke,” Neo-Marxist ideologies that are spreading like wildfire across America.

The slow and steady reopening of America is revealing there was a lot more economic hardship brought about from the Covd-19 lockdowns than most realize. While we continue to hope advertising dollars on the sites go up, it’s simply not enough to do things the right way. We are currently experiencing a gap between revenue and expenses that cannot be overcome by click-ads and MyPillow promos alone (promo code “NOQ” by the way).

To overcome our revenue gap and keep these sites running, our needs fluctuate between $3000-$7000 per month. In other words, we’re in the red and hemorrhaging.

The best way you can help us grow and continue to bring the truth to the people is by donating. We appreciate everything, whether a dollar or $10,000. Anything brings us closer to a point of stability when we can hire writers, editors, and support staff to make the America First message louder. Our Giving Fuel page makes it easy to donate one-time or monthly. Alternatively, you can donate through PayPal as well.

As the world spirals towards radical progressivism, the need for truthful journalism has never been greater. But in these times, we need as many conservative media voices as possible. Please help keep NOQ Report and the other sites in the network going.

Thank you and God Bless,
JD Rucker
