I can't remember the name of the event, but when I was a junior or senior at the University, the city police just came in and fired all kinds of shit at the students who were just partying. Maybe things were taken too far on our end, but man, the horror stories you heard in the following days.............. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueMetis Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 TBH I gotta wonder how many of those fires may have been started by the police's indiscriminate uses of "less than lethal" weapons, tear gas containers get fucking hot. Also there's accusations going around that a guy who smashed the windows of the autozone was a cop in plain clothes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

briantw Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 I keep seeing the news saying this feels different than previous instances where this has happened. Yeah, because we have a video of a man being murdered by a police officer. There was no grey area here. This was a literal public execution where an officer choked a man to death while he pleaded for his life and multiple onlookers cried for justice. So yeah, it's fucking different. There's nothing to hide behind with this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toth Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 I just read an article about all the protests and what struck me as odd was a line about how protestors in Columbus, Ohio, tried to get entrance to the local parliament and were denied access. I immediately had to think of the armed (white!) nutjobs who were allowed entrance to the Michigan parliament a month ago to go intimidate the representatives. What a joke of a country...

He sure as fuck looked like it in his shiny new equipment, freshly purchase for the modern riot provocateur. Theyve just arrested a CNN crew for....existing?

Larry of the Lawn Posted May 29, 2020 Share Posted May 29, 2020 Can't help but think that if a police precinct burned everytime a cop murdered someone there might be fewer police casually murdering folks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given that the CNN crew fronted by a black person was arrested but the CNN crew fronted by a white person was not, I think we know what they were arrested for.

And wrongful death and police brutality settlements should come out of police pensions. Maybe then they'll actually police each other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see that the Minnesota Governor has apologized for the Mr. Jimenez's arrest. What I'd love to see is the Minnesota State Police attempt to explain why Mr. Jimenez was arrested in the first place when the other white correspondent was left unmolested.

This seems like the perfect group to make an example of too because of how obviously guilty they are. Lock them up and deny them protective custody. Justice will work itself out.
