Omar Slams Defensive Police Shooting as ‘State Sanctioned Murder’
4th January 2021
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D., Minn.) called the fatal Minneapolis police shooting of Dolal Idd a “state sanctioned murder”—despite body-camera footage showing that Idd fired at police first.
Idd, a 23-year-old black man, was inside his vehicle at a gas station parking lot when Minneapolis police surrounded him on December 30, suspecting he was involved in a felony gun crime.
In a rightly-ordered society, Omar would be expelled from Congress and barred from holding elective office, if not stripped of her naturalization and shipped back to Somalia where she belongs.
