“Trick N’ Trina” Morning Show
Trina is tripling down on her assertion rioters and looters are “animals … acting like they have escaped from a zoo” … she says they’re over-shadowing non-violent protesters.
The iconic emcee responded Wednesday to backlash she’s been getting after sharing her opinion on protests against police brutality in Miami, hammering her point home that peaceful protests for George Floyd are good, and the riots and looting in her community are bad, in part, because those causing the damage aren’t from there.
Trina says she’s being attacked for saying those destroying property are “animals,” calling for an earlier curfew in Miami and ripping some protesters as “fake,” just because she has a voice and isn’t afraid to speak her mind.

She says she was angry when she came into her radio station gig Monday and her initial comments were shaped by emotion … but she’s not backing down.
Trina makes clear she has no issue with non-violent protests, saying she’s peacefully protested herself, but still sees big problems with folks kicking in windows and burning buildings in her community.

The way Trina sees it … the riots and looting are distracting people from getting answers on George’s death and takes away from the real issues, like addressing police brutality and racism. As she points out, Floyd’s family agrees.
Trina says she’s not talking about people looting designer stores … what really irks her is folks messing with mom and pop shops.
Bottom line from Trina … stop destroying local communities and start protesting peacefully so change can really happen.
