    You only see it from one POV. You don't know what what was going on, hence why people are waiting for the investigation.

    Ha. Rioters out sending a message to Autozone and Target. "Let me get this TV... justice for BLM!"

    Then businesses will move away and there will be even less jobs and then property values will decrease and they'll just get more and more poor.

    Feel like we've seen this before.

    But I guess when you are nothing, you've got nothing to lose.

    Whoever is doing it needs to be locked up. They're scum. Human feces. Bring in the National Guard.

    What other point of view is there - other than guy on the ground on his belly - arms handcuffed behind his back - 4 officers - one with knee on guys neck for 9 minutes - dude is saying he can't breath.

    You are in denial of the obvious.

    These cops are so fkn out of line, I cannot even believe this even happened.


    This link has some video of what was occurring earlier. The guy was cuffed, not resisting, he wasn't being arrested for a violent crime. One cop who clearly should not be in a position of trust like this is too many, but 4, at the same scene? This department has a systemic problem, from trainers to supervisors to recruitment.

    Properly trained law enforcement officers will be the first to tell you that there nothing defensible occurring here. You are watching four officers jointly committing a deadly felony, and they don't even seem angry, it looks to me like they are just all stupid. But stupid and authorized to use deadly force on our behalf, is a combination that cannot be allowed to exist.

    This video goes on for ten minutes. This officer just looks dumb. The other officers, don't seem to be any smarter. It's like watching Dumb, Dumber, Even Dumber and Really Stupid kill a man. It's beyond belief. How in the hell do these guys end up on the street with a badge and a gun?

    Trust me .... the cops are not worried about you. Anyone shows up armed and takes any action, should make their funeral arrangements first.

    99% of Cops do their job.
    There are good and bad in every industry.

    Now tell me how self gratification of stealing a flat screen helps the dead man’s family.

    It does nothing other than justify the stereotype.

    Really. How about the Donald Lemp case? A young white man recently murdered by police in MD. COPS got a know knock warrant and shot through his bedroom window from outside while he was sleeping. based on an unconfirmed anonymous tip to the police and the new MD red flag laws. How many liberals now who Donald Lemp was or even care about his murder?

    Police misconduct applies to all races. The thin blue line applies to all races..

    The media wants a race war, they put incidents like this to saturate the airwaves, ignoring police brutality of whites.
    The police are equal opportunity they will beat or kill your white ass too!

    in the 90's the riots tactically gave california a lot of taxpayer money to rebuild.

    this is a repeat of that strategy.

    Do you really want to compare this guy when a black nurse was shot and killed in bed? Duncan Lemp was an actual felon.

    Remember the Rodney King riots in L.A.?

    Reporters asked the looters how they felt about Rodney King and they answered, “Rodney who?”.
