people everywhere everyday are being detained for everyday activities and there are plenty of peaceful protesters right now from all backgrounds demanding justice for the victim here. the issue is abuse of power by cops but you get sidetracked every topic using inflammatory language based on race and skin color

you are obsessed with two separate events and are attempting to draw some unrelated conclusion or connection. like when your ancestor joseph and his buddy adolf blamed some Jewish people having some money as the reason why the 2nd reich lost WWI

just simmer down heinrich okay wouldnt want you to get 20% again because you started posting disgusting pictures again

How many injuries were caused? how much property damage? how many homes were burned?

presence of guns =/= not peaceful. Armed occupation with no shots fired is peaceful, that doesnt mean its good or justified.

Did they shoot anyone? Loot a few hundred stores? Burn down any homes?

It's a terrible analogy, move on.

Are we going to arrest him before the prosecutors are ready to press charges?

Of course. There are valid peaceful protests going on over the Floyd murder right now and nobody's criticizing them. Color isn't the issue. Crime is the issue.

Purple haired turds like this one are a real win for society.

FerociouslySteph, Twitch Trust and Safety Counsel's trans who identifies as a deer has stepped into the spotlights once again, encouraging the looting in Minneapolis in statements made on twitter.

Quote
Following these events, Twitch Safety Advisory Council member FerociouslySteph encouraged further looting and property destruction. She took to Twitter where she wrote, “Remember to cover your face — facial recognition tech is getting scary good and you could get identified in a video that happened years ago.”

She added, “The system is big broken — Solidarity for those resisting.”

i wonder if this sentiment would be the same if it was a group of POC did this.


I for one fully support armed POC. Like, feverishly.

Of course. Why wouldn't we? That's how we treat every other murderer. They have to go through a bond hearing to go home.

Agreed, on both counts. Police arrest people for crimes all the time. The arrest has nothing to do with whether or not a prosecutor is ready to press charges.

Lacking the evidence of the shoulder cams, I can't predict the odds accurately, but based on the evidence we do have, I'd say pretty good, tbh.



That's complete nonsense. "Being outraged" is fine. Going on a crime spree that primarily targets innocent people merely makes these rioters criminals. Not revolutionaries, not people working on behalf of Floyd's "cause". Criminals.



More information please? Haven't seen any real information yet regarding plans to press charges or refusal to press charges. All I've seen is that the incident is under investigation, and that they'd pulled in investigators from a neutral source to help with the investigation.


If you're policing and the policed collectively simultaneously agree that the current arrangement doesn't work for them then you've been making mistakes for a while.

How many businesses, homes and government buildings need to be reduced to rubble before force is authorized to defend them?
Frey declared that a building cannot outweigh human life to justify withdrawing from precinct 3 and letting it be burned down
The national guard aren't authorized to use force, the police are given stand-down orders and will not use force to arrest anyone, only to repulse attacks
And the state showed its priorities when the only arrest out of the entire protests so far, despite all the televised crimes, was a business owner defending himself from looters.

So lets take this to its logical maxim. How far will it be allowed to go? If the rioters start up again today and torch a hundred more businesses, is that okay? If they torch some more schools, some churches and hospitals? How about if they make it into the suburbs and start going home to home, smashing and grabbing and burning. Will homeowners be arrested for defending themselves despite castle doctrine? Will Frey get on twitter and tell people that they must leave their homes and allow them to be ransacked and burned because lives are worth more than property?

If all of the Twin Cities was reduced to cinders and rubble and rioters no longer had homes, food, health services or any other necessities, would the insurrection still be tolerated?

Also we now have an ID on the man killed while attempting to loot a pawn shop
Calvin Lewis Horton, Jr, age 43, had a criminal record including multiple felonies. He died of shotgun wounds to the chest and head

Minneapolis is expendable but St Paul must be protected. we're going to establish a Berlin Wall in the center after the fires die down and order will be established on one side while the other becomes a libertarian utopia for Santara to rule as moderator of New Minneapolis. name subject to change.
