    Mostly young white liberals from what I've seen the last few minutes....the kind that come for pay. Not seeing looting in the link below. Police have been shooting paint-guns and other non-lethal ammo, plus teargas Looks like the police are trying to push them off the streets before sunset.

    The guy who's been streaming this just said they're taking the stream down for a few minutes to get better equipment and will be back up in 10-15 minutes.

    Isn't it odd how we literally know the names of every black guy killed by cops? Meaning, it must not happen very often. Why don't we ever hear the names of white guys killed by cops? How about Hispanics, Asian, etc?

    With or without Masks or Social Distancing.
    How Novel coronic.
    Things were much easier in olden times.
    Find a BAd guy and toss him into a snake pit.
    If they state their intent then believe them and try
    to pull them out.If not then just chalk it up to some
    fickle finger or fate.Regardless if a knee is used.

    the onlookers could even tell, but they were too afraid to save the man's life because they knew had they tried, the cops would have killed them

    even his fellow cops were too afraid to stop him

    That’s great!
    Charge him with murder then, I don’t care.
    He will be convicted with manslaughter 2. I read their statutes for murders and manslaughters and that’s the only one that fully describes what happened.

    Not so Novel Corny Obvious.I mean,at least in the black community.
    Unlike Malt Liquor,Pork rinds and Fried chicken.
    If Blacks were anymore obvious they would be Alphabetized.

    Another data free assertion. Which column is highest? What world are you living in? If the MSM doesn't report it, it didn't happen?

    upload_2020-5-27_20-34-47.png

    This shows you the effectiveness of MSM propaganda. There are people like Ronstar that believe that cops don't kill white people. This exists in a world where the data is literally a google search away. SMH....

    **** that **** and **** that attitude. I bet your tune would change if that mob of thugs was breaking in your business. If that **** ever happened around my businesses, I'd be standing out front with one of my AR-15's.

    Minnesota also has a 3rd degree murder charge right above the manslaughter charges. That would be your lesser charge for a jury to fall back on.
    Personally, I don't see how the officer can say there was no intent in the moment by kneeling on his neck for several minutes after the man passed out. He would have to claim to be a functional idiot.

    Damn shame that nobody waits for the facts to come out. I'll admit it looks very bad for the LEO's involved but let the truth come out and then make an informed decision.

    so you can intentionally run someone over with a car and just say you only meant to hurt them and not get charged with murder there?

    That sounds good.

    Throw the book at him, and his lawyer will get him off on murder (and he will probably get it reduced to Manslaughter).

    I hope he does at least 5 years. (Although, I would prefer 10, or more).

    Cops usually find a way to crawl out from under a major criminal charge.

    I am in favor of the MAX sentence.

    The cop on his neck deserves the MAX.

    This cop needs to go to prison (for at least a decade).

    Unpossible. The run on free TVs and beer will be over by then.

    Exactly.This is how The Left and Democrats control those
    pathetic Melting Pot Northern cities.By occasional use of Rioting.
    I guess the theory is it keeps Blacks riled-up and feeling important.
    Thereby creating a National climate for Grievance.
    Ironically No Such White condition exists.
    Name the last time White Riots existed.
    Pretty much explains everything.
    Also How Obama relied on the 2012 Summer of Suppression and
    Low Information black vote.

    Rioting is never justified.

    The more I watch that video the more I’m convinced that’s 2nd degree murder. I don’t care what Floyd did prior to being handcuffed. The police are not the judge and jury. Once handcuffed and on the ground Floyd was not a threat. That officer needs to be charged with murder in the 2nd and the other 3 officers (whom I did not see in the video and am only going on what is reported) need to be at least charged with accomplice to negligent homicide. That was wrong police procedure in every manner.
