During a press conference on Thursday, Minneapolis Council Vice President Andrea Jenkins called for calm and peace and admonished rioters for hurting the “very communities that you say that you are standing up for.” On Wednesday, protests in Minneapolis turned ugly, as looting, violence, and arson erupted across the city, following the death of George Floyd, a black man who died after a police officer had his knee on the 46-year-old’s neck during an arrest, viral video shows.

Rioting never solved any problem. Demonstrations never solved any problems. Defining the problem and working together to solve that problem is the key to resolving issues. The police were in the wrong, only 4 police, not the entire police force or the entire police forces across the country. The police were fired, but that doesn't resolve the issues. There needs to be a review of the department to determine how widespread prejudice is in the department and rid the departments endemic 'don't rat or interfere with an office in an active arrest, interview or interrogation. The officers involved and the city will be sued. It is cheaper to keep the department clean. No amount of training will stop the actons these officers were in which these officer were involved.

These animals aren't protesting the death of someone, they view it as an opportunity to shop for free stuff. Notice on many of the videos, whites who were there to protest police brutality were up front with signs and chants, while blacks were breaking into Target and stealing tv's and everything they could get their hands on.

Minneapolis is a very liberal Democrat City and has been run by liberal Democrat politicians for a very longtime. In that respect the particular officer who used his knee on Floyd’s neck is said to have been involved in a good number of previous serious incidents and you have to wonder why the liberal Democrat politicians did not force that officer out if even one or two of those previous incidents were founded? Instead of looking into that, some Democrats are already blaming President Trump.

Voice of reason give me a break. Parroting Keith Ellison.
Keith Elllison, AG: It is legitimate for community members to be outraged by George Floyd’s death. During the COVID-19 pandemic, I strongly encourage everyone who wishes to exercise their First Amendment rights to protest to do so safely: use social distancing and wear a mask. It is an act of care for yourselves and your community to do so.
