The Minneapolis Police Choke an Unarmed Handcuffed Black Man to Death

I’m just waiting for the narrative that the cops were trump supporters.

They already tried that. Twitter had a picture of a different person (he did look similar though) wearing a "Make Whites Great Again" hat. Think people finally realized it wasn't same guy.

*edit* saw some already mentioned this. Apologies

Yes. Quote where race was mentioned in this thread as a reason for dissent.

Did I quote anyone? I said it was for anyone who needs to hear it. It's the narrative I have been hearing on the news and some comments in the thread hinting along those lines so it is for whoever needs to hear it.

LOL, R U serious??? If you and I and everyone else on this forum were standing there watching, we wouldn't know for sure the guy was actually being murdered. The cop is just restraining the guy. And if you attack a cop just because he's forcefully holding down a suspect, and there's other cops around too, I can see a giant SNAFU happening.

No one said you have to attack the cop or shoot the cops or that you have to face certain death to intervene. I don't know where that idea came from and I don't know where the idea came from that you can't at least talk and interact with cops while they are making an arrest.

We tackled a guy on our parking lot who was being chased by the cops. We saw the cops and he ran into us so we took him down. Had his arm tucked underneath his stomach and he wouldn't give it up so we didn't know if there was a weapon. I put my knee between his shoulder blades and started pulling up on his arm to put pressure on his shoulder but he was struggling to keep it tucked. By that time a cop had shown up and he dropped his knee right into the back of the guy's head pushing his face into the concrete, bloodying his nose and lip, and then he got off and punched the guy in the back of the head once and then pulled out his taser and put it on his neck and told the guy he was going to tase him. I told the cop to stop because I had just about worked the guys arm out and got control of it and all he was doing was making the guy fight harder against the beating. The cop stopped and didn't say anything to me about it and just cuffed the guy and that was that. I have no problem talking to a cop or telling them to stop doing something. Whether they listen or not is up to them, and most would probably ignore me, but you are obligated to do something if someone's life is in danger. If you can't see that a man going lifeless with a knee on his neck for over 8min is in a life-threatening situation then I'm sorry but you are a moron. It takes 14lbs of pressure to block the corroded artery so what do you think 170-200lbs of pressure behind a knee cap will do to someone when you can clearly see that there is possibility of bloodflow cutoff while the cop is in that position and for as long as 8min? Let alone the fact that the bystanders were telling the cops they were killing him sort of proves that they knew he was in danger, does it not?

If someone had interfered enough to warrant the cops putting them under arrest then the cop that killed George Floyd would most likely have been the one to help the Asian guy as he was the closest and he was doing nothing to actually subdue the victim, the other cops had his body and legs. Taking that hit of getting arrested would have saved his life.

I say the Leo gets the same, I see an eye for an eye in that deal.

There's always one: Someone suffering from white guilt who has to get involved to show "solidarity" with the others. For christ' sake....

One of these idiots on YT last night called the burnt apartment complex a gentrification unit, and referred to the AutoZone and Wendy's as simply "corporate America" ...basically saying they are not damaging anything of value to their city.

Now I've simply heard that apartment complex was going to be low income, not high end, so sounds like BS, but also the fact that google maps shows it as nothing but a large parking lot so no black businesses were kicked out to create said housing.

one would think that those who live in low income housing would need Wendy's to eat since they're obviously not cooking themselves steaks every night, and autozone to fix their piece of shit cars which is all they can afford

Or have a place to work. If it was your franchise that got burned down would you rebuild it or just take the insurance money and build elsewhere?
