Atlanta-born rapper Killer Mike preaches non-violence but isn’t shy about supporting the National Rifle Association — and warning those on the left that they risk turning into fascists if they don’t tone down their rhetoric.
“I warned the people on the Left that when you get political power you can’t use it as a bludgeon to ostracize [your political enemies] or you become just like the Brown Shirts of Italy,” said the rapper, a former drug dealer who is one half of the rap duo Run the Jewels.
“Malcolm X and Martin Luther King both warned Black America to be aware of the White liberal,” he continued in an interview with Britain’s Telegraph this week.
“If you are engaging with them they have to understand your voice and your direction, or you will end up just working for them. That isn’t something I ever wanted to do.”
In the past, the “Legend Has It” rapper, whose real name is Michael Santiago Render, told Black Lives Matter protestors not to set fire to businesses while protesting in Atlanta.
