More likely Chicago.
Or could it be Russia...More likely Chicago.
oh, so I guess you haven't received your reading list of how not to be a racist white person
I had already posted my own experience and other whites I know being "stopped/questioned/accosted by police while they were minding their own business and doing nothing questionable, much less illegal." Maybe if you liberals would get out of your cave you might see what happens in the real world to all people.There is no excuse for how the protesters / rioters have responded to the situation in MN. And it is incredibly unfair and irresponsible to place the blame at the foot of police generally, as opposed to this particular officer.
However, there is also no excuse for pretending that there isn't a race-based problem with respect to policy activity. Ask any black person in America, and they will tell you stories about when they were stopped/questioned/accosted by police while they were minding their own business and doing nothing questionable, much less illegal. Until we address this issue head on, frustration will continue to grow and responsive conduct will sometimes go too far (and occasionally, way too far).
Sound like anyone we know:
"Mr. Deez, However, it isn't enough to condemn the officer. You have to shout the broader "**** the police" and "**** whitey" narratives like LongestHorn does. Well, to borrow his verbiage, "**** that."
oh, so I guess you haven't received your reading list of how not to be a racist white person and what to say, and what not to say right now to black people.
There are real lists posted on my Facebook by the worst, chest beating SJWs I have ever seen right now. I got absolutely lambasted when, after several posts stating that this event seemed like outright murder, these specific police should be arrested, and what seemed to be all the "right" things, I dared mention it seemed as if the man was trying to get his life on track, and what a shame if this had happened now. There is absolutely no reasoning with them at all-- a small sample:
ESN: Don't trivialize this by saying he "wasn't a total angel." No one is a total angel and your statement implies that somehow, if the crime is heinous enough, police should be justified in killing someone.
Police say Floyd matched the description of someone who tried to pay with a counterfeit bill at the convenience store. By matching the description they mean he was a black man.
He was killed because he was a black man.

- Hollandtx:
, I'm not trying to trivialize anything. He had a few run ins with the law in Houston.
I do believe that there are a few crimes heinous enough to justify shooting or killing someone. Ex, holding hostages, an active shooter, to name a couple.
I am in no way trying to minimize this murder.
Hol: Why do we have to ruin that poor boy’s life?
Yeah he wasn’t perfect...but he’s got his life ahead of him.
(someone threw this in, I have no idea why or what bearing it has on this situation. He is the wealthy swimmer who had sex/assaulted a drunk and unconscious woman and was sentenced to probation)
I guess it's a WHITE PRIVILEGE statement of some sort, although this guy had no priors....
Emily :youtube.comPres. Trump brings Mpls. police Lt. Bob Kroll on stage. This friend of Trump's wears a white privileged armband!
- Emily And how do you know those run-ins with the law weren't because he was black? Why do you think that when a black person is killed by a cop their records are paraded out as if it justifies it?
I've been pulled over for speeding, that's a "run-in with the law." The difference between George Floyd and me is that I don't have to worry that I'll be murdered for it.

- Me: Emily, you put me in a tough spot. I do not want to speak ill of the dead, but he was in and out of jail for small crimes (having cocaine) He also broke in to a woman's house, pointed a gun at her, and robbed her of money and drugs. He pleaded guilty to that.
No one has paraded this information out, in fact the only records I have seen are of the policeman. I realized I knew nothing about Mr. Floyd and looked him up. I didn't know or hadn't heard any of this until I found it. I looked him up after reading about the ministry he began in Houston.
B&E, attempted robbery, and using a gun in commission of a robbery has nothing to do with the color of his skin. It is a fact.
To his credit he realized he needed to change his life. He started his ministry, but some of his friends tried to be a bad influence. (what the article said, but here he was breaking the law in MN. I didn't put that in my reply)
That is why he left Houston and moved to Minnesota.
Maybe police kept finding cocaine on him because they checked more since he was a black man, but, his armed robbery had nothing to do with his color. I am outraged about his killing.
I will spare y'all anymore, but that is the tone. If anyone wants the reading list, let me know. Or the what you can/can't say to a black person.
Short version, don't say you are sorry that this happened, don't say, I know I can't possibly understand what it is to be black--but this is a terrible thing.
ONLY SAY: I see you. I hear you. I am with you. Memorize this statement.
Then, get started on that reading list because nothing will change until white people change.
And meanwhile, our Nation burns. (totally justified though, hundreds of years of anger spewing out) AAAAAGGGHHHH
