The dumbest thing I have read may be the majority are white doing this. How stupid can you be. However, regardless of race, this can not be tolerated.

Super proud of the program for this. We have a racism problem in this country and in law enforcement. I think this video and Floyd’s murder is the tipping point finally to do something to make change.
I completely disagree. I'm not denying that there are racists. However, every time an incident like this happens, the culprits are always arrested, prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, and then sentenced in accordance with the law, and that's the way it is and should be.
Hence, there is no need for nationwide protests. As the wheels of justice will take care of the matter automatically.
Not to mention that the Left in this country never fails to exploit an ugly situation like the one that happened in Minnesota for political gain all across the country, and what they call so-called protest are in actuality acts of domestic terrorism.
Indeed, every time it happens in this country ad nauseam, it never fails, innocent and not so innocent people end up dead or severely injured and I'm tired of it. Not to mention all of the damn property damage
So while I condemned what happened in Minnesota, I condemn even more the terrorism that is transpiring nationwide masquerading as protests and most of all I condemn the Left for never failing to exploit every unfortunate incident they possibly can.

Video of woman and man (store owners) beaten.
I can tell ya one thing for sure....if that had been my wife/business being beaten/attacked with a 2x4....all of those brothers would have been laid out on the sidewalk full of holes.
I would have been an equal opportunity executioner. Would have blasted the fat white dude too for just standing their watching it happen.

What unbiased reports should we seek?

The problem is you think people care about false platitudes from elected officials. Nobody gives a shite.
Stay out of my wallet and you have a chance to get my vote. The rest is just noise.

And turn off Fox News
If you are trying to insinuate that people who watch or pay attention to the one single news outlet in the entire universe that doesn’t feed the casual observer that “this is Trump’s America,” or that white supremacists and extreme right-wing groups are inciting violence on a 24/7 news cycle are the ones who are brainwashed, then you are even more dense than I thought.
And I already think you are pretty goddamn dense.

Lol. You people are such emotional drama queens.

going through dangerous situations doesn’t make a person any less of a shitbag for protecting murderers.
From an outsider’s perspective it’s very easy to say things like that. From the police perspective, when you deal with violent people day after day after day, and listen to every excuse why suspects are resisting, I’d imagine they become numb to the complaints of “I can’t breathe” etc, when the suspect had a chance for a peaceful arrest and resisted.
This latest case was one of extreme negligence, and hopefully, the officer is punished and, if necessary, the policy is reexamined and more thought is given to unresponive people while they are being restrained. There were opportunities for this to have been avoided without putting the police in danger.
Sometimes, though, a split second decision has to be made, like the Tamir Rice case where a 180 lb 12 year old is waving a fake gun at people and then at police. The officers shot him to protect themselves and the public and there was outcry because an “unarmed” child was killed by police.
The police live it every day and are not only bonded by their experience, but they know what it’s like to have to make split-second life and death decisions. They will get some of those decisions wrong, because they are human. That’s why they support each other. In cases of blatant murder, yes, non psychopaths should not support that or cover it up. The problem is that a lot of the cases that the media chooses to spotlight are impossible situations where people force officers to make split-second decisions. Then, of course, racial motives are assumed and riots and violence ensue.
Statistics show that white people are more likely to be killed by police during arrests for violent crime, but that isn’t news that sells and so it doesn’t make headlines. Instead, we only hear about when a black person is killed by police if there is the possibility of questionable circumstances. Since that’s all they hear about, people then assume that black people are being targeted, and a false narrative is perpetuated. Black people then fear and hate the police and/or assume they are going to be killed, which causes them to resist at a higher rate, which creates more impossible situations for officers in which they have to make split-second life or death decisions. And the cycle goes round and round.

Shouldn’t you be out spray painting “BLM” on your local Starbucks with the other 17 year old girls? Maybe talk about your first periods and how “fricking racist” Orange Man is.
Go “make a difference“ like that Nike commercial tells you to.

Not when my fellow man is more interested in looting, burning, and beating innocent folks with 2x4s...no I don’t.
