Whether that\u2019s true or not, it probably isn\u2019t wise to try that sleeping aid strategy in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/topic\/boston\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Boston City Hall<\/a> late at night without permission.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cWith him trespassing in the building after hours, and at times becoming aggressive and threatening other <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/government-reparations-task-force-leader-fired-after-being-arrested-at-city-hall\/\" title=\"Government Reparations Task Force Leader Fired After Being Arrested at City Hall\">staff members inside<\/a> of City Hall.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Boston police allege that 35-year-old George Williams, Boston\u2019s Reparations Task Force <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/elephant-herd-crashing-towards-chinese-city-expert-says-leader-may-lack-experience-led-the-whole-group-astray\/\" title=\"Elephant Herd Crashing Towards Chinese City, Expert Says Leader May Lack \u2018Experience,\u2019 \u2018Led The Whole Group Astray\u2019\">project coordinator<\/a>, has been doing just that.

On Thursday night, Williams was arrested for allegedly trespassing in an upstairs office at 9:40 p.m. Eastern.<\/p>\n<h3>Police Report<\/h3>\n<p>According to a police report, city employees say that throughout May, they have had difficulties:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>with him trespassing in the building after hours<\/li>\n<li>at times becoming aggressive and threatening other staff members inside of City Hall<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Williams, who has been arrested for multiple drug offenses in the past, according to Massachusetts-based outlet <a href=\"https:\/\/tbdailynews.com\/crystal-meth-addict-hired-by-michelle-wu-to-run-bostons-reparations-task-force-despite-plethora-of-criminal-charges-now-lives-in-city-hall-gets-arrested-for-throwing-dustpan-at-cop\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">TB Daily News<\/a>, was allegedly found non-verbal in an off-limits room while sage burned Thursday evening. How did he get there? Well, he allegedly chased off a custodian to gain access to the room.<\/p>\n<p>He was originally asked to leave by police, but became hostile, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boston25news.com\/news\/local\/coordinator-bostons-reparations-task-force-fired-after-being-arrested-inside-city-hall\/CYDNXIZWPFFVZKGOVMKJWGCF4Q\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">according<\/a> to Fox 25. Williams is accused of lunging at an officer before picking up a dustpan and broom to clean up his mess. When authorities requested him to leave again, he allegedly swept debris in their direction.<\/p>\n<p>If it sounds bizarre, readers should know that police suspected he was on drugs. Officials finally de-escalated the situation and were able to haul him away, but not before he tried to attack a second member of Boston police, Fox 25 reported.<\/p>\n<h3>Reparations Task Force<\/h3>\n<p>As readers can tell, only the best and the brightest get hired by Boston\u2019s woke Mayor Michelle Wu. Williams was picked by Wu to serve as part of her Reparations Task Force in 2022.<\/p>\n<p>That <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/how-to-show-lockdowns-are-killing-more-people-than-the-virus\/\" title=\"How To Show Lockdowns Are Killing More People Than The Virus\">task force<\/a> is supposed to be \u201cworking with a research partner to release a study on the legacy of slavery in Boston and its impact on descendants today.\u201d Per the website, the Task Force is still looking for a research partner.<\/p>\n<p>Slavery became <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mass.gov\/guides\/massachusetts-constitution-and-the-abolition-of-slavery#:~:text=In%201780%2C%20when%20the%20Massachusetts,judicial%20review%20to%20abolish%20slavery.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">illegal<\/a> in Boston and throughout the Bay State in 1783.<\/p>\n<p>Nonetheless, the task force will also be engaging \u201cthe community throughout the process to include input from lived experience\u201d and then provide recommendations \u201cfor reparative justice solutions for Black residents.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Williams \u2014 however excited he once was to be a project coordinator with the group \u2014 is no longer a part of it. In a statement given to Fox 25, the city <a href=\"https:\/\/www.boston25news.com\/news\/local\/coordinator-bostons-reparations-task-force-fired-after-being-arrested-inside-city-hall\/CYDNXIZWPFFVZKGOVMKJWGCF4Q\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">said<\/a>, \u201cGeorge Williams was a part-time contractor. His contract has been terminated. We remain committed to the work of the Reparations Task Force and that work will continue.\u201d<\/p>\n<h3>Former College Professor<\/h3>\n<p>Now, here\u2019s the real kicker.

That sort of tactic works across America wherever so-called reparative, restorative, and racial justice is pursued. And just like Williams\u2019 previous arrests, it always ends with a slap on the wrist.<\/p>\n<p><em>The views expressed in this piece are the author\u2019s own and do not necessarily represent those of The Daily Wire.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Burning sage is believed to offer benefits like better sleep and warding off spirits.
