Poor guy. But that’s what happens when you burn down your own town. In a few years when all the businesses are gone they’ll blame white people and racism for “white flight” and creating a food desert.

No matter if this was just a misunderstanding or not, the sheer optics are HORRIFIC. He was literally live on air as they cuffed him, holding up his press credentials badge for the police officers to see.

It's on the front page of CNN...

That won't help things. They arrested him because he wouldn't move.

Meanwhile a white reporter from CNN was also in the area but was allowed to stay...

Bingo! No decent person wants to live around people who act like that. I could not care any less than I do if they destroy themselves, just like they're doing now. They disgust me.

Trump blaming China has brainwashed his followers into blaming China and you are teaching your children that China is to blame for them being out of school, not being able to go to malls, etc, etc. But again..."dats different"!

No city deserves to be burned down by Rioting Thugs. The City Leadership Does deserve to be Fired.

The former NAACP President in St Paul agrees with you.

’These People Don’t Give A Damn About George Floyd:’ Former NAACP St. Paul President Watches Police And Protesters Clash - Daily Caller

I thought that it was going to be a rally, but as it got to the end, I was there about 30 minutes and I realized that it wasn’t a rally, it was going to be a riot,” she said.

After overhearing the plans for the riot, which included going to the police precinct, she left and didn’t return.

“I listened to what was being said. When they started talking about going to the 3rd precinct I knew how that was going to end.”


“I haven’t been up here since. I watched what they were live streaming on video and the destruction that they did to their own communities. What are people going to do that live in those communities, and they need those resources?”

“We don’t have many stores as it is. So why are we going to burn down the small business owners who are there for us? Most folks have moved out of the community, most businesses are gone, we don’t have business in the community.”


It’s all about the FUN of Rioting, destruction and most of all ..... the Looting.
Weak City Leadership allows it ... they will demand that other people PAY to rebuild so it can be burned, looted again. Diane Binns was president of the NAACP St. Paul from 2016-2018. She was here for the north Minneapolis riots in the 60s. She knew what was coming. She knew it wouldn’t be stopped. She knew it was all planned.

See: Baltimore, St. Louis, Detroit, Milwaukee, etc al ...

What do these cities share in common?

Hoardes of low income blacks who revel in a good city burning every time a police officer injures or kills one of their own. Forget the every day black on black crime. Forget the every day black on white crime. All those pesky everyday rapes, assaults, armed theft, and murders are just par for the course in big black cities. But oh Lawdy when a white cop kills a brother ... stuffs gonna burn.

And then you’ll have residents suffer from a lack of goods and services. And no one to blame but their own neighbors for it.

Yep. Very soon they will also be crying "discrimination" because they have no housing because they burned it to the ground, while destroying and stealing other hard-working Americans property and ability to provide for themselves and their families.


They are criminal, sub-human thugs.

LOL.....so telling people the origin of a virus, to you, is the same as brainwashing your children to believe that they are inferior victims and that "the man" is out to get them?


That's brilliant.


Again, I do hope one day your cruel master sets you free.

I disagree, people deserve the government they elect. If you elect a weak minded government who would sit back and let the animals run wild burning the city, then you deserve to have your city burned down. In that scenario, you voted for it.
