That makes no sense at all. This isn't a he said, she said thing. There's literally video evidence of a man begging for his life.
He also said they were hurting his leg. Dude pretty much named every possible ailment while pinned down as folks who tussle with police and lose often do. Especially when there is an audience. Cops just tune that shit out because 99.44% of the time it's just rambling bullshit.
How much do you want to bet he died of a drug and physical exertion related heart attack?
Fair to middlin'. Doesn't excuse the cops failing to monitor him and change things up when he zonked out. The guy was in police custody. Therefore wrongful death suit incoming. It's Freddie Gray but a bit more hands-on at this point. We will know if it is more later.
Well maybe they didn’t overcharge him. Looking at the Minnesota statute, (a) could be proven with the knee on the neck. But proving the “depraved mind” could be harer to prove. Manslaughter under their statutes seems far more clear-cut
If the knee to the neck is what caused it and you can prove it in court. We don't have the coroner's report yet. Dude could have blown out an aorta in the struggle and been a dead man before the knee was even applied. Or he could have died from asphyxiation. Or something else. We just don't know.

Did the knee help matters? No. Is it enough to make a manslaughter charge stick? Eh. Not at this time.
 
The gibbons should be grateful that the cops didn't hold him at gunpoint for a game of 'Simon Says' or 'Twister' tbh.

Remember this guy?

I woke up after getting a few hours' sleep, and this is the headline on the NYT: "Minneapolis Ex-Officer in George Foley’s Death Is Arrested."

Not one thing about violent anarchy gutting a whole chunk of a big city, and they can't get the dead guy's name right.

And Trump is up here pouting and moaning about the Chinese.
 
Can I get a TL ; DR please? I've been locked away for a while, so I have no clue what's going on and don't want to read 200+ pages. I know it's riots over cops murdering a black guy, but that's about all the details I know.

Minnesota is a duty to retreat state when you aren't in your home. Pretty sure they arrested some guy for doing that yesterday and left his store to be looted.

I recall some idiot farmer in MN a few years back decided to set a trap for kids who were constantly breaking into his farmhouse. He sat in his basement with a gun, then shot a couple who broke into it. Headshotted them just to make sure they were dead. He filmed it all and gave it to the cops who promptly arrested him for murder. So no, in MN, your house isn't your castle and you've no right to kill anyone who breaks in. (Of course, if you kill then and turn them into bonemeal for your animals, that's a different story.)
 
Saw the video yesterday. Utterly beyond my comprehension. 😡 I consider it murder. What got me was the cop being so nonchalant as he was killing this man. Cop was likely charged with manslaughter. Was a little surprised a bunch of people didn't rush the cops before they could draw their weapons.

Am sure the family has a lawyer. Also sure the city's lawyer has contacted the family's lawyer and offered a settlement. City would have less than zero chance in court, especially with a jury, makeup immaterial. Estimate settlement will be paid within the next two weeks if family approves. If not, a little longer, but the city's going to pay.

The family needs to sue each one of these policemen, personally, long as the settlement with the city allows it. They may not get millions but they'll get something, and more importantly, a judgement to serve as a lien on any future earnings/windfall money/lottery winnings/etc .

Saw this a few minutes ago. Check out the armed "rednecks", black and white, standing shoulder to shoulder. Heartening to see. Posting link only because am not sure if I can post the videos in the article through copypasta. Doesn't always work for me.

I've been seeing the JFK quote about peaceful change vs violent change posted a lot too. Like he was saying people should start looting.

"I really need a new TV, so go out there and cause a huge distraction for me so I can get one."

CNN openly calling for violence against whites, no such thing as innocent whites, all are guilty and must pay

Nice of them to strengthen the case for keeping guns and promoting racism against blacks.
 
I know this is super late most likely but it came to mind reading about the black lady going "businesses have insurance".

Typical business/house insurance does NOT cover arson/looting. It costs extra. So while the big box stores might have it, it is more than likely that all this destruction is not covered at all by insurance.
Considering that, it makes one wonder how you can still justify looting a small business when people come up with excuses. I saw one guy try to justify it by noting how people are poor what with the lockdown and all but even if you got a poor guy looting a business, compare that to everyone else that's just looting stores just so they can get money out of frivolous shit and not really dealing with things like rent.

at this rate between his war with twitter and joggers, the pres might accidently drop some gamer words
One could only imagine a shit storm that could arise, and it will be one that'll rage on for some days.

Much as the whole racism angle could seem ridiculous, I can see how a liberal can end up being a racist. He doesn't need to be screeching about a black guy being in a commercial when he could simply just call a black guy an uncle Tom for not agreeing to some assessment the liberal makes. All that said, one would wonder how many white libtards are actually choking away black opportunity and how many would probably just be more likely to virtue signal on how he's not a racist.

a riot started, went from police brutality to race thanks to twitter checkmarks, an ungodly amount of businesses got torched and the riots have begun spreading nation wide now. Over one jogger with a long list of priors that dindu nuffin.
 
The thing that really pisses me off about the people supporting these riots behind their computer screens is how they make genuinely braindead false equivalences to shit like the Boston Tea Party or the Hong Kong protets to make them feel morally justified. Not to mention how they also constantly copy and paste that one MLK Jr quote about rioting out of context.

From Antifa and BLM types it's basically this, just replace it with 'you should burn and loot shit because the founding fathers did. No I have nothing but contempt for your evil slaveowning founding fathers and the constitution.' And so on.
