Re: George Floyd (and aftermath): Part 2
2 people killed last night in Wisconsin by an armed white militia member. The details about this are absolutely wild (the police speeding past him surrendering, the cops apparently coordinating with militia members and giving them water). All you Trump humpers, this is on you. This is the kind of country that Trump has created with his racist and violent rhetoric.

Re: George Floyd (and aftermath): Part 2
Apparently they found "fatal levels" of drugs/chemicals in Floyd's body. Deep down, I kind of knew the cops would get acquitted. Wouldn't be the first time it happened.

Sorry, I'm not seeing it in the tweets.
How many times was he shot in the back at point blank range? The standard 7?

Oh it gets better. Read these tweets and your **** blood will boil. Sorry to say this man but I’m legitimately starting to hate your country.
I’m going to spoiler the next video because it’s disturbing but it shows the actual timeline from when he murders someone to the police literally ignoring him trying to surrender.

He killed two people and shot a 3rd. All were self defense.
First guy chased him down as he was leaving the protest and threw a molotov cocktail at him.
Second guy attacked him with a skateboard while he was on the ground from previously being attacked.
Third guy pulled a glock on him.
Wisconsin is an open carry state. Was only a matter of time before citizens pop back at rioters in such states.
Rioters should not encroach such areas without being fully aware of the potential consequences.
This event serves as the first warning for those who dare to moving forward.

First of all, that video you posted wasn't about "badly trained cops". That's a classic case of hiring "bad apples" and defending them to the last breath. FFS, the guy took the time to carve "You’re fvked" on the dust cover of his AR. Why would you hire a guy like that?
And they baited the guy to get shot ("Don't put your hands down, now crawl").
All I saw in that video was a guy aching to shoot somebody. Not a cop who wasn't trained properly.
The jury didn't get to see the evidence.
To top it off, I believe he sued the city and is getting 30k a year for life because of "post traumatic stress". So cops can get rewarded for this kind of behavior.
It's complete systemic insanity right? The union in this case suppressed the **** body cam! And dude secretly got a cop desk job back for a while until somebody found out.
Whether it's bad training or evil men killing innocents crying in hallways is debatable. That guy was both a wretched human being and poorly trained, he likely didn't want to kill some pest control tech in a hallway but the two of them are utterly incompetent and saying conflicting things.

Spoiler alert: The rioters threw a bottle at him and rushed him. But you already knew that.
I'm amazed more people haven't been shot actually, you have the wholesale destruction and burning of unrelated area businesses and property and these are the first active fatalities. Does anybody know how many people were shot during the King riots?

This was never going to end up any other way. Unrelenting uncontrolled riots were going to eventually bring out the militias spoiling for a fight and the cops will take the help where they can get it..
Easiest way to stop this is for local politicians to gain control over the rioters but the Democrats have no appetite for that. Well, unintended consequences and all that. It all needs to stop and now.

Re: George Floyd (and aftermath): Part 2
No excuses, but what do you think was going to happen? What happened in Minneapolis, Louisville, and so many other places is tragic. Change needs to happen whatever that change means, it is time for it to happen. I think that the overwhelming majority of people across the country would agree with that. But rioting and violence is not the answer. It won't help win the majority over. When the protesting turns too rioting and violence then the people will respond. Only bad things will happen. Unfortunately, I don't think that last night was the conclusion. It will get worse from both sides.
