The Feds will be coming in today. POTUS can order them into action if governor does not.
But that's not a fact. The officer was wearing black gloves, which made it appear that his hand were in his pockets. If you look close at a high definition picture, you can tell the difference. Also, if you watch the full video, you will see him moves his arm, and it shows his hand was not in his pocket.
And this highlights a key point. What we think we see is not always what actually occurred. Until a cause of death has been released, we don't know for sure how Floyd died. Let's see more of the facts before we make final conclusions.
I agree with your point, but to set the record straight, the officer was wearing black gloves. In the video, it appeared his hand was in his pocket, but once in a while he moved the hand and you could clearly see the glove. In no way does this mitigate what officer did, just saying.
Yep.
Maybe he thought Mr. Floyd had some sort of top-secret SEAL training that would enable him to get out of any hold, even while cuffed behind his back.
Small minds think alike, they dont have any room to grow.
What I think is that all the facts are not in, and I'm not making a conclusion. That's all.
You beat me to it. I was thinking the same thing.
These riots are just one symptom of America's Rat controlled cities. This problem started long ago and is a result of hundreds of progressive policies and decisions made in the past. The same lack of intellect is now coming to bear, or should I write, not to bear on these riots. The people who voted for these Rats are rioting over what they voted for, and they will continue to vote for the same Rats, or some equally exchangeable piece of human excrement.
“2) to reassure the angry public that has been burning the city since Wednesday that justice will be swift and sure.”
They aren’t the “angry public” they are thugs, rioters, and looters. If you bothered to watch the videos of the looting and arson tearing my old neighborhood apart you would have noticed that these thugs are all colors. My bet is that NONE of them actually live in that neighborhood, and probably a fair number of them aren’t even residents of Minnesota.
You also didn’t have to start stirring the racial pot by referring to “pasty white Minnesotans”, you didn’t refer to the rioters and looters, the actual criminals in this case as “black as tar” or any other pejorative about their color.
Media template:
Violent disturbance in Minneapolis = “justifiable outrage”.
Peaceful protest in Ann Arbor to reopen businesses = “domestic terrorism”.
Swearing in as a Congressman on the Koran.
The peaceful protest already occurred: “He can’t breathe, bro, get off him bro.”
Justice has already been exercised: “You killed a man? You’re fired!”
Arrest them all now no face masks!
Minnesota has been axe-ing for this for 60 years.
The Attorney General of Minnesota
Trey Gowdy is a useless tool.
You may be right, or you may be giving the sheeple too much credit. To my eyes, it appears the opportunists (race baiters, antifa, looter guys) have jacked the death of George Floyd.

Where is the Minneapolis police chief? Conspicuously absent from news reports. Isn’t the police chief responsible for the actions of the police force? The training, the procedures?
I saw burka’s in the crowds..
