'We're Really at War': Pro-BLM Suspect Gave Chilling Interview Before Attempted Shooting of Mayor Candidate
These are sick puppies that walk among us.
A militant Black Lives Matter supporter arrested last week in the attempted murder of a Democratic mayoral candidate in Louisville once told a local magazine that he believed he was “at war” against perceived systemic racism in the U.S.
Quintez Brown, 21, was charged on Monday after allegedly barging into candidate Craig Greenberg’s office in Louisville and firing several shots. He is now under house arrest after a group run by Black Lives Matter posted his $100,000 bond.
The incident has brought attention to warning signs of the young man’s radical ideology, from recent calls for revolution to his now-ironic advocacy for gun control.
Yet his views hardly differ from much of the increasingly popular rhetoric on race touted by prominent intellectuals and academics, so often presented as the only solution to perceived injustice.
If he’s guilty, Brown’s actions speak volumes about how very dangerous this ideology can be — if the burning cities, destroyed businesses and lost lives amid the 2020 George Floyd riots hadn’t done so already.
Brown adheres to a vengeful belief that the governing philosophy of the U.S. is inextricably linked to anti-black racism, a theory that appears to propose little more than sheer anarchy as a solution.
In the summer of 2020, Brown told Louisville Magazine that amid the pandemic and nationwide rioting, “it feels like a perfect moment to do something, a perfect moment to be outraged.”
