Subject: I can't breathe . . . Minneapolis police kill a man in broad daylight
Did any bystanders ever dial 911, or was it more important for each bystander to record the travesty, as they watched on?

The black community is hurting themselves acting like this and rioting. Giving the media what it wants. Stop it!
"The black community" aren't the only people protesting...
True, but they’re the only ones looting.
Focusing on the looting = waving the confederate flag.
Did you get our your special tiki torches out on Memorial Day?
This is a weak statement.
The rioting and looting were a result of the reaction to this awful death.
They are hurting innocent business owners, destroying property, and causing the taxpayers of the city undue costs.
The police station and police cars that were damaged and destroyed? They'll be repaired and replaced - at the taxpayers expense.
Rioting and looting is just stupid and short sighted. Many were simply taking advantage of a bad situation. The people there who were protesting should speak out against these criminals.
The only criminals we really need to focus on right now are the killer cops.
Your continued focus on looting says a lot about you.
Really? Looting going on right now at the Target in Minneapolis.
When you come out to protest, and you start stealing stuff, you become a thief.
When you come out to protest, and you start burning stuff, you become an arsonist.
Thieves and arsonists are criminals.
The justice system will take care of the cops. Hopefully, the justice system will also take care of the criminals who are taking advantage of this situation.
Looting isn’t the issue here.
. . .
Really?
- what about all the sick people who depended on the pharmacy for their life-saving medications?
- how about those who depended on the Target minute clinic?
- and now the Target employees there are unemployed. For what?
Those looters just victimized countless innocent people right there in their own community.
But you don’t think it’s an issue at all??!?
+1000 There are consequences for innocent people who did nothing wrong. There is absolutely nothing high and mighty about looting and rioting. It's out of control mob behavior.
In response to an out-of-control racist police force who MURDERED someone because of the color of their skin.
So in retaliation you get to steal a big screen t.v. from Target and torch a nearby apartment complex? Explain to me how this rights any wrongs? Answer: it doesn't. Two wrongs do not make a right.
Omg. Fock the TVs. Fock the windows. Fock Target. Those.do.not.matter.
I’m disgusted by the vile racist scum that are more worried about a TV than a man who lost his life because of the color of his skin.
WTF is wrong with you? Were your parents racist?

The police "force" did nothing of the sort. Four officers were involved.
Do you have any idea how many officers there are in Minneapolis?
Bear in mind had bystanders not recorded this murder the entire police force would be insisting that the man died of a heart attack due to underlying medical conditions and that rumors of supposed police brutality were completely false. This is why people get so angry. Because believe it or not these abuses of power by law enforcement happen all the time and police forces always dismiss them as ridiculous allegations and they get away with those dismissals because THE COPS NEVER CONE OUT AND TELL YHE TRUTH. The only time these officers are ever held accountable for their abuses of authority is when there’s video evidence and even then most of the time they STILL GET OFF. This is why people get upset.

Better check in with their black racist police chief.
He may not be racist, but he is a cop so he will protect his fellow officers.
That’s why this bullshit continues because cops don’t hold each other accountable.
Yes, and the head of the police union is a racist pig. He is a huge Trump supporter and rides in a white supremacist motorcycle club.
I’m sure he has inserted himself in the situation.
Citation for your post.

Wasn’t one of the cops in this situation black? Or is that an inconvenient fact that goes against the narrative that only white cops kill black people?
When the story first went viral, I think the vast majority of people only thought that a white and asian officer were involved.
That explains why this case got so much attention. The justice warriors have a preference for white officers using excessive force on black people. This is why nobody takes them seriously.
There are countless incidents involving white officers using excessive force on white people and they are largely ignored.

Black lives matter more than Target stores. It's pretty simple. And I live in South Minneapolis. I've gone to that Target many times. We have hundreds more and tons of Minute Clinics. This is Minneapolis, HQ of Target - we aren't suffering for retail options. Get a sense of perspective.
We only had one George Floyd, and we can't bring him back.
You are unwittingly arguing that the looting and rioting are fruitless and serve no purpose.

You're obviously voting the wrong way. So is most of Minneapolis.

It would be more like riot and loot their business plus torch their homes.

I mentioned in a PP that many cops have Narcissistic Personality Disorder. I think that is the heart of the issue and why cop Chauvin (filled with spiked adrenaline) would not stand down, even when many citizens and the Floyd were begging him.
Floyd's sister and many other African Americans do not support the looting. They know the looting is a disgrace. It is unfortunate that unabiding citizens are taking advantage of this incident.
For the millionth trillionth time, black people can participate in a racist system just like white people. Doing something racist with your black home doesn't make it any less racist. Committing a racist and cold blooded murder with your brother in blue who happens to be black does not make it any less of a racist cold blooded murder.
And while we're at it, neither do the following absolve you of racist behavior:
- having a black friend
- having a black family member
- being married to a black person
- raising a black child
- living near a black person
- having a black coworker
- employing a black person
- enjoying black culture
- voting Democrat
- attending a protest or rally
Mmkay?
I agree, but don’t say “mmkay,” please. It makes you sound like a stupid teenager.
Mmkay Karen. Anything else about the way I behave and exist that you'd like to change?
I don’t know you, MacKenzie, but I am guessing just about everything.
