Look, trump is all fluff and air. He knew exactly what he was saying.

Armed militia protesting lockdown & neonazis marching = very fine people

black protesters and kneeling athletes, mexicans, immigrants = thugs, thiefs, rapists, murderers, drug lords from shithole countries.

"armed militia" who didn't hurt anyone, didn't burn down any buildings, and didn't do any looting.

White protesters = "Armed militia & neonazis"

Rioters = "Black protesters"

At least in the first case we had a peaceful protest with no deaths, no arson, no rape, and the city intact. We can't really say that about the second case. Perhaps Trump has a better handle on this than you after all.

50+/800 protecting a fired police officer at his house is a good sample size.

Says nothing about the blue code of silence that was on display during the murder (the standing cop, not holding the victim down, but instead making sure his accomplices were uninterrupted).

Fired cop had a dozen+ complaints for brutality over his career, and involved in several deaths. Authorities investigated and cleared him. Coming down from on high, that reeks of complicity.


I agree. Who cares about ensuring that this guy survives until his trial. Just hand him over the mob and let them handle it. It may not be elegant, but it's efficient.

The right to own and carry firearms is, uh... A Right. The right to PEACEABLY protest is, uh... A Right.

Forget any assessments or characterizations. The right to both peaceably protest and carry firearms are Constitutionally guaranteed.

B&E, Arson, Theft, Rape, Assault, and Murder are all crimes, and none of them are rights.

Your attempt to excuse the riots and looting and compare them to actual peaceful protests is abhorrent.

Race is not a concern or comparison. Criminal activity is the concern. Once again, the murder of George Floyd is horrible, and the officers involved need to be held accountable. The criminal activities of rioters is also horrible, and those engaging in said criminal activities need to be held accountable. Doesn't matter if the criminal is white, black, red, yellow, brown, or pink with green sparkles.

"safely in jail" while they burn down the 3rd precinct.


The precinct station is not a jail. He would have ended up in seclusion at the Hennepin County Detention Center.

aren't those 50+ just doing their job? like should they walk off duty and just get fired? im sure 48+ of them would stay even if offered immunity to leave, but still.

im more concerned with indiscriminate pepper spraying, tear gassing the peaceful side of the protests, and the lack of accountability this guy had for years. infinitely moreso.

and still id rather see this guy in a cell than his own home with 50 cops around him.

ive seen lots of investigations into officers play out, if anything i hope thats what comes from this. an overhaul of accountability, even tho it means more govt employees, yuck.


I agree with everything in this post.

I don't think Chauvin was in the house at the time. It's much more plausible that he was being kept somewhere safe and far away.


He was though. I've heard of attempts to order Door Dash being intercepted by the mobs and delivery drivers refusing to run a hauntlet to deliver him his dinner.

Except that's not what I said. I want him in jail, where he's safe from the public and the officers can tamp down the riots instead.

Funny how his house was more important than the precinct.
