Four Minneapolis officers fired after death of black man

[churchmouse]

It looked to me like he was having an anxiety attack. The cops only made that worse. Murder? I don’t think so. But they did not handle that situation properly. There was no reason to kneel on his neck to control him. And the signs were there to have known what was going on.

It has come out that the neck kneeler had a bad history with this douche bag and knew him pretty well. I see this may have caused some of his responses to be pushed over responsible limits.

I thought that was later recanted?

It adds some context in a way that it makes it much harder for an honest person to be very confident with a murder conviction. Yes, 8 -1/2 minutes is a long time to have your knee on a guy's neck who isn't a threat. He's cuffed and kinda mostly compliant. But also I think an honest jury seeing the whole thing could easily acquit all 4 if they can convince the jury the official autopsy was legit. If he's acquitted then hell will break loose.

When they are found not guilty and trump is still in office then YES MINNEAPOLIS will burn to the ground. If biden is in office this will be swept under the ground.

I heard that some time ago. My impression has been this isn't about race, it's about a long standing grudge between two guys. At the beginning of one bodycam video that was recently released Floyd's first comments when his car door was opened was "Don't shoot me." I found that odd, as if he recognized the Neck Kneeler and knew the potential for a revenge killing was there.

Depends on what MSM source. I saw this from the club owner they worked for. Others that knew him. I am sure it was swept away ASAP to maintain the rhetoric.

One of the comments...
DO NOT stand in the way of a booty call.

That video is missing *a lot* of context.

The fence was put up by Antifa. The driver somehow ended up in the middle of a bunch of black-clad people. A motorcycle driver cut him off and laid the bike down in front of the truck. A bunch of people surrounded the truck and started slashing the tires. You can see the left-rear tire is flat in the video. The driver decided to save his life, drove forward taking the bike with him.

Alternate video of the same event: https://twitter.com/TrumpRulzz/status/1290963022786236421

A better title for the first video would have been "Antifa attacks truck and driver. Is surprised he didn't consent."

Looks like he was having an anxiety attack.
Sad stuff

It looks like the mob hammers out one of his windows right before he stepped on the gas.

Yep.

These "antifa" mother****ers are doing a swell job of making reasonable people feel sorry for someone in a Nazi armband.

Well, to be honest, the link really just restates what was seen in the video. If she's truly a Nazi or Nazi sympathizer, then maybe she and the Antifa thugs deserve each other.

True.

The only problem is, today it's Nazi armbands...tomorrow they are at your doorstep trying to blind you with lasers because you have an NRA sticker on your car or a blue light bulb in your porch light.

Yeah, I found the lasers to be pretty disturbing. Apparently they've latched onto that one pretty regularly now. Maybe some "other" lasers (little red dots) on their chests and foreheads might change their minds...

Why waste a battery when a bullet will do the job the first time?

I don’t appreciate the swastika. Not sure if she’s wearing it to troll or what. But she has as much right to it as they have to wear hammer and sickle imagery. Would be hand if there were a burly dude with a lack of patience to walk out and teach those people how to talk about their differences.
