The BeyHive is preparing to swarm in 5, 4, 3……. Beyoncé’s Super Bowl Performance Blamed For Police Deaths A Tennessee sheriff is making national headlines for his incendiary comments about Beyoncé. Sheriff Robert Arnold recently told a local paper that after shots were fired outside of his home he wondered if Beyonce’s Super Bowl halftime show was to blame. Why? Because since Bey’s “Formation” dropped seven police officers have been killed nationwide. The Tennessean reports: Other than being the sheriff and a member of law enforcement, Rutherford County Sheriff Robert Arnold doesn’t know the motive for shots fired outside his Osborne Lane home Monday night. “We all know, as soon as you put your uniform on, you’re a target,” he said at a news conference Tuesday morning at the Rutherford County Sheriff’s Office. “You make people mad when you’re just doing your job.” Arnold said when he first heard the shots, he wondered if they were inspired by the Super Bowl halftime show. When asked to clarify that comment, he added, “You know, Beyonce’s video.” Beyonce recently released the video “Formation,” which has been described as representing the African-American experience. She performed “Formation” during the Super Bowl halftime show. In an email Tuesday afternoon to further clarify the sheriff’s Super Bowl statement, Arnold said, “My comments reflect the violence and senseless killing of seven deputies in the U.S. since the show aired. My comments are an observation of the violence that has occurred but in no way is meant to offend anyone.” The email also included a link to The National Sheriff’s Association’s website with the following information: “The senseless killing of four law enforcement officers just this week — on the heels of the anti-police “entertainment” at the Sunday Super Bowl halftime show — reminds us that the men and women in law enforcement take a solemn oath that includes putting their lives on the line every day to protect our citizens.” Black pride is anti-police entertainment now? Okay. This comes just days after a Detroit police sergeant compared her performance to the KKK. Y’all mad, huh? What do YOU think about Sheriff Arnold’s logic???
