And that is how the system typically and should work. Where is the outrage at the local Dem leadership level in these instances when the system fails and why not protest against the Mayor and DA? Are they out of bounds because they are Dem?

Funny you say that because they are actually outraged at Democrats. LA is calling for the DA of LA to resign who is a black woman, and a Democrat. Also calling for the resignation of our mayor who is very much a Democrat.

Good. The Minneapolis mayor should step down for poor leadership. That is the way to do it and not burn and trash ****.

That was because people were angry that someone videotaped a white dude kneeling on a black dude's kneck for 8 minutes, while his white buddies stood by and watched. People were angry. The people who were looting have been and are being actively shamed by the protesters. The violence is over- with the exception of some occasional police brutality. If there were rules which prevented this from happening there never would have been looting in the first place, so let's just make that happen. Make sense?

Really, then why are the guys laughing and having a good time terrorizing a hospital that had nothing to do with George Floyd?

Mob rule is not how this works, but not surprised knowing the lefys history of racism and violence.

Not justifying or condoning. But it's understandable. Listen to Joey Kent and other ex-Vols talk about this and they'll take the same position as me here.

Joey Kent and otjets say its understandable to throw rocks at a cancer hospital overpass and threaten a father walking to his car with his young daughter who is screaming?

As always the left has o replayed their outrage. Never negotiate with terrorists and that is what the BLM organization is and its showing.

If they acknowledged reality they’d have to admit there would be A LOT more George Floyd’s. Every time one of these unfortunate things happen it shows why it does. Law enforcement deals with the worst of the worst of scum on a daily basis.

I simply 'understand' that people would react that way. I mean it makes sense. Did I vote for Trump? Nope. Did I understand why people did? Absolutely. Check out this quote from one of Nixon's aides John Ehrlichman

"You understand what I'm saying? We knew we couldn't make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin. And then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities," Ehrlichman said. "We could arrest their leaders. raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did."

That same **** has been happening for 50 years.

The guy who did it had NUMEROUS complaints of excessive force and every time the DA backed his ass up. He should've been gone years ago.

And if you saw that video and thought that was justified you're thankfully in a tiny minority

I admit the cop was wrong. There was a point they should’ve stopped and they didn’t. For this at least one cop’s life is ruined. It doesn’t make George Floyd a saint and at least not in my eye it doesn’t make the cop a monster. He made a mistake and he will pay dearly for it. I don’t view him as a racist and the aftermath just shows how irrational and f***** up people are. The white guilt parade when they’ve said nothing wrong has been nothing short of nauseating.

Who's they? There's no spokesperson for white people. However there are certainly plenty of white people saying stupid s***. No shortage of that from any cross-section of America. Also that cop was a POS. He had 18 complaints filed against him and he should've been gone a long time ago. When cops aren't held accountable this is what happens.

When career criminals win a Darwin Award it happens too. Floyd was a pos and a career criminal. If the cop was rogue with all these supposed negative complaints blame the entire liberal leadership of Minnesota.

Nothing to worry about. A reputable poster on this board said insurance executives wouldn’t even roll out of bed for few hundred million in damages but of course Minnesota is already asking for federal funding to help with rebuilding.

These people causing damage are sick individuals. This is why their neighborhoods and cities will never improve. They have no pride or morals and deserve to live in scum cities.

LOL @ “ reputable poster” . I’m betting it’s the first time anyone has said that about him 😂

Regardless of your grievances, burning , looting and killing others for something they had nothing to do with is stupid . I’ll go one better .. I don’t care who you are , what group you belong to , what religion , party , sex or race , destroying your own neighborhood, community , city and state that you have to live in is a dumb ass thing to do . There’s no excuse that makes that seem intelligent.
