    What more do you need to see, they were disobeying the lawful orders of the police, turned their vehicle into a weapon against the police and then fired a shot.

    The adults will handle all the other videos during the investigation.

    Can you explain your deep-seeded need to see all of the details?

    What's the matter with you?

    "Scores of protesters quickly arrived at the site of the shooting, a gas station parking lot in South Minneapolis, about a mile from the intersection where Floyd was killed, facing off in below-freezing temperatures with police officers clad in riot gear, some clutching batons and cans of pepper spray."
    https://www.washingtonpost.com/nati...913a7a-4b5c-11eb-a9f4-0e668b9772ba_story.html

    A "score" is twenty and note it is plural.

    Just one camera angle

    Feel free to revise and extend your remarks. So what are they protesting? Why are they not celebrating the police stopping these criminals?

    Yeah it did as was reported. And that is far more than just 2 dozen people in the one picture I posted. Funny how when a carload of self proclaimed KKKers show up in MS or GA it's declared a national movement which threatens the very threads of our society.

    So what are they protesting about here, what's to protest?

    Anytime an officer kills a black person, justified or not, will be a "here we go again" moment.

    The black communities hatred of police is unjustified, irrational, and going no where.

    So expect to see more of this.
