The people are sick and tired and now, one fed up petitioner has started a Change.org campaign to get news personality Tomi Lahren fired.
The mediocre news anchor has her own talk show on ‘The Blaze’ and uses most of her time spewing negative views, opinions and narratives toward the African American community.
Back in February, she spoke out against Beyonce‘s pro black inspired “Formation” video and Superbowl Halftime show performance, even going as far as to bring up Jay Z‘s drug dealer past. This critique received much backlash and even prompted a standoff between she and The Breakfast Club host Charlamagne The God as I previously told you HERE.
Fast forward to this week, in the midst of rage, frustration and calls for action regarding the police shootings of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile, the insensitive host took to her local access channel yet again to offer her thoughts on the chain of events and ultimately left a very bad taste in the mouths of many.
It didn’t end there, she went on a tweeting spree blaming the ‘Black Lives Matter’ movement for the recent string of shootings and even calls the movement, the new KKK.
Tomi Lahren deleted her vile tweet calling the BLM movement the new KKK. We still have it, you horrible human. pic.twitter.com/0Sf6WiVhY7

Well now a petition has been created to get Tomi axed from her show. The initiative was started by Natia Brown from Brooklyn, New York and reads:
Tomi Lahren needs to be fired because her INHUMANE comments against anything African American continues to go on and no one does anything about it. She’s clearly racist and should not be allowed to attack black people the way she has.
The petition has gained almost 15,000 signatures at time of posting. Click HERE to view or sign the petition.
