He is being charged with 3rd degree murder/manslaughter. Just reported.
I can see that. Makes sense.
They said all the others will be having charges brought against them as well.
Wow, some sanity finally, but it would be nice if the prosecuters had
CAUSE OF DEATH ESTABLISHED.
There wouldn't be much of Minneapolis left if they waited for all those lab results, Jim.
Yeah, that's why you tell police to stop the looting, and shoot to kill.
Richard J. Daley Famous "
shoot to kill" order prevented riots in Chicago.
That is what they need to do.
These people are angry about police brutality and you suggest we SHOOT at them now? You think that will calm them down? Who knows why after the cases of police brutality that have been all over the news in the past few years, this is the one that set their hair on fire. Was it because everyone is so fuckin on edge with these Covid restrictions and disrupted life? If it were just a particular hate-the-cops-in-Minneapolis situation, it wouldn't have triggered rioting in St. Paul, too.
Everyone is grumpy, bored out of their wits, maybe this was just the last straw.
Yes absolutely.
Say a police officer killed my neighbor in cold blood. I'd be mad.
Um... can I come and burn your house down, and loot everything I want from your house, and take your car, and set everything else you have on fire, and burn it to ashes?
Can I do that?
I'm MAD! I am angry! My neighbor was killed by a police officer in cold blood.... and... well... you have some stuff I want, so I want it.... and I hate everything, so I'm going to burn your house down and all your belongings that I can't carry to my house.
I should be able to do that! Right! I'm angry! That means I can take your stuff, and burn everything I can't take with me, to ashes and leave you with nothing.
Angry! Very angry!
I didn't defend it. I was just wondering why this one, when the four cops were instantly fired--not suspended, but fired--and the mayor called for Chauvin to be arrested for murder, and NO ONE was defending what that cop did. I recall cases that would have made me a lot angrier. That's all I was wondering.
Oh.. I see.
Well the answer is simply, they want to be angry. They want to loot and riot and be evil.
It's really that simple. You are trying to determine logical causes, to animalistic behavior.
Stop dehumanizing them. I don't recall you saying that about the white boys who dream of taking up arms against the commie deep state government, shooting and killing their neighbors, fighting for THEIR cause. Maybe it would behoove the powers that be to pay attention to this instead of dismissing them as nothing but animals.
Look, just watch the videos. They are in fact animals.
And I don't see white boys running around, burning down people's homes and businesses, and looting everything they can get their hands on.
If they did.....
IF THEY DID....
I would call them animals too.
Maybe it would behoove the powers that be to pay attention to this instead of dismissing them as nothing but animals.
MLK fought for justice, by only exclusively, violating what was unjust.
He didn't burn people's businesses to the ground, including other black people's businesses, while claiming to protest for Black people's rights.
He sat at the front of a bus. No one was harmed, no one was looted, no one's homes or businesses were burned to the ground.
Do you know why we don't negotiate with kidnappers?
Because doing so encourages kidnappers. If you pay ransom, the result is you teach them that kidnapping and ransoms is the way to make money.
When the Somali pirates were collecting money from shipping companies, the result was more and more pirates.
You know when that stopped? When the Marines started shooting the pirates.
This is universal truth. If you reward bad behavior, it encourages more bad behavior.
The way you stop bad behavior is you punish them, and hard.
You do not negotiate with terrorists. And these are terrorists. They are causing terror in their own communities, to their own people.
You keep making it out like this is a race issue.
But if this a race issue, if I was a racists person.... I would support these people.
Who are they harming? Think about it. Who are they harming?
Are they harming me? Are they harming white people? Are they burning down the white suburbs? Are they destroying white people's jobs?
Think about it! Who are they harming. Answer. Other black people. They are burning down businesses which destroys the jobs of.... you think white people from the suburbs are driving to jobs in the ghetto? No. They are destroying the jobs of black people. You think the owners of all those businesses are white rich people from the suburb? No. Black business owners.
If I was racists I would support everything these people are doing. Let them burn themselves to ashes.
I want that to stop, because there are good decent law abiding black people, that are being harmed by this.
Who do you think is harmed by shutting down that highway? You think the rich white people, that are on salary and get paid even if they don't make it to work, are the ones being harmed?
Or the poor black people, that if they are not on the clock, they don't get paid jack?
They are harming the people they claim to be protesting in support of.
Again... MLK never did this. Never. He didn't loot, or burn the city down.
These are not justice warriors... these are animals. And no, you don't pay attention to animals. If anything you shoot animals, to stop them from destroying society for the rest of us who are not animals.
