Police doing what police do.

Those two police officers need to be charged with homicide, the victim’s family should receive a windfall and a public apology from the police chief, and all of the city’s police officers need to be re-trained in proper restraint techniques. This should not have happened. This death was 100% foreseeable and preventable. This was wanton disregard for another human being’s life. Thank God there’s video.

Again?! When will this stop? Many years ago, when I was attending state university, I had a work study job in the campus police department. One of the first things my lieutenant told me was to never do or say anything you don't want on the 6:00 news. That was solid advice I carry with me today. Seems like it should be the mantra of police everywhere. (Ironically, some years later, that lieutenant ended up on the 6:00 news when his 3 year old got a hold of his service weapon and killed himself. He blamed the safe.)

The costume gives them immunity. Power trip racists wearing a costume and a shiny piece of metal. Nothing more.

And Minneapolis peeps always insist on here that their city is not racist.

The nonchalance of the murderer cop is unbelievable. It looks as if he wanted the guy to die slowly. Neither the murderer or the cop holding back the crowd gave a damn about being filmed. Limited immunity is a beautiful thing /s

When people stop sitting on the sidelines watching it happen. Each of us can do something today to be anti-racist. If you aren’t sure what... start by Googling “anti-racism”. Educating yourself is a step in the right direction.

I can’t handle watching things like this.
Can someone provide a synopsis? What happened?

They day we collectively are willing to risk ourselves to stop cops doing wrong. Problem is, you have to go in knowing you will be hurt or killed. Remember the Civil Rights movement of the 1960's. I don't think we have the balls for that kind of personal risk any longer.
