I'm also quite sure they must have seen the camera(s) in the crowd.
I don't see any body cam on the cop kneeling on Floyd, but one cop asks him to roll him over and he declines.


These were the types of cops that were supposed to be gone from the force 4 years ago, what happened. A cop that behaves like this has to have a history and it will come out. Very small percentage of cops like this but as usual the problem is that his actions are ignored.

Klobuchar didn’t prosecute them.

Hmm.

I'm curious about the hierarchy of command with the 4 that were there. Clearly one of the officers is trying to get neck kneeler off Mr. Floyd, and makes several statements about putting him on his side, etc.

Were they not equals at that scene? Did the neck kneeler have supervisory power over the cop that was basically telling him to get off Mr. Floyd?

This type behavior is more common with cops than you'd believe. I know one. An ex-friend NYPD in fact. Former friend from high school and also is an Eagle Scout. He is totally red pilled and I would not be surprised if he was a cop that was fired over the Facebook posts. Anywho four years ago due to a conversation on Facebook where he defended cops shooting unarmed men who followed instructions, we are not friends. This was in light of the group home worker shot laying down face up with his arms up while trying to defuse the situation where an Autistic boy from his group home ran out and was allegedly causing a ruckus in the street. He said "That I couldn't imagine what they go through." I responded "No, but I know not to shoot an unarmed man." We haven't talked since and I don't want toxic people like him in my life.

Default When are we going to get all the facts about Mr. Floyd's murder?

When will we get to see the entire film clip, and not just the very end? Why isn't Fox showing it?

When will we get to learn Mr. Floyd's criminal history?

When will we get the details on the policemen's history of abuse, and the cities puntive actions?

When will the Minneapolis Mayor answer questions about his claim that the rioters are outsiders?

They are not! He's trying to cover his own butt with lies (80% are Minnesotans):

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/min...floyd-protests

When will we get to hear from the city of Minneapolis's Black Police Chief why this thug police officer was still on the streets after prior complaints? What were those complaints, and were they properly investigated?

The media on both sides are withhoding all of this to sell media advertising, and incite a riot.

We need to stay calm, and demand answers, not disinformation, and selectively chosen tidbits of information.

Folks, we are all being played for a higher purpose. I don't know what it is, but there is one that is hidden from view.

Ni kidding. In fact, the second I heard about the riots starting, I kept thinking this is just their cover story they are going to use to destroy all of the security cameras on the buildings that caught what was going on.

You can google his criminal history - I found the Texas arrest sheets - don't know about MN.
The Mayor in Buffalo already knew that "outsiders" would be in Buffalo to try and start trouble with the protest - I don't think it's any secret that they have people showing up when they hear a protest is planned.
As far as the police officer and the former complaints - those too are out on the net - problem is what are legitimate and which ones aren't. These days the slightest thing can set people off to make a complaint and it may not be valid - aka the recent NY city dog on the leash episode. Of the cops I know - most have complaints against them - doesn't mean they are found to be true.

Demanding something doesn't get you anywhere. It puts people on the defensive and they won't say anything. Everything will come out in time - but I bet even when the truth is told - people won't believe it as they've already made up their mind without the facts.

They did work together, which makes this story even weirder.
