BLM Activist and City Council Candidate Charged With Theft in Baltimore
This is after he was charged with attempting to incite a riot over Freddie Gray...

As usual, Black Lives Matter activists prove to be nothing more hypcorites and thugs. Rev. Westley West, who happens to be running for Baltimore City Council, was charged with misdemeanor theft.

The Baltimore Sun reports that the 27-year-old pastor was charged Dec. 29 with one count of theft. West allegedly used campaign funds for personal bills and to give to his church.

Baltimore County prosecutor Adam Lippe said the charge stems from allegations that West used the bank account routing number of Elias Wilf Corp. on Dolfield Road in Owings Mills "to pay his own bills and send money to his church."

Lippe said West worked as a truck driver for the flooring company for a short period last summer. The amount allegedly stolen totaled more than $700, he said.

West's attorney, Donald Wright, called the charge "a false accusation."

"He denies doing anything illegal or improper," Wright said.

West is seeking the Democratic nomination for the 7th District seat held by Councilman Nick J. Mosby, who is running for mayor. West is pastor of Faith Empowered Ministries.

This is not the first time the BLM pastor has had a run-in with the law for unscrupulous behavior. In September, West was arrested after a protest catalyzed by the Freddie Gray incident. He was charged with inciting a riot, malicious destruction of property, disorderly conduct, and a litany of other offenses.

West has said police targeted him because he was leading the protest and has called the charges "false." He was charged with attempting to incite a riot, malicious destruction of property, disorderly conduct, disturbance of the peace, false imprisonment, and failure to obey for stopping traffic during a protest.

 Nice. Just what we all seek in our city council members. One thin West's legal entanglements highlight is the hypocrisy of the Black Lives Matter movement. If one claims to be a good representative of the African American community, then it hardly bodes well for that person to be arrested and charged with multiple crimes, multiple times. As usual, BLM serves as an excuse for people to break the law, incite violence and just generally behave badly. Its members, for the most part, couldn't care less about helping the community.
