Minneapolis cops slowly murder handcuffed man in front of crowd

[Morning in Atlas]

Funny to see MSNBC and other news agencies give out headlines like "MSP protesters met with tear gas", while in reality the protesters are out acting like animals, looting and attacking cops. In situations like these, the CCP model actually works pretty well.

Dude, we aren't stupid.

Tomi Lahren is being attacked for not commenting on the Floyd killing, but the looting that we see right now.

More peaceful protests, Tear gas is 100% usable here in this SPECIFIC location,  Screw LOOTERS !.

Why does the MSM have to cover up everything ?
Atlas was more mad over a effigy than this.

Can a single atlas poster tell me any damage said Shutdown protesters caused?

Broken windows can be fixed and shelves restocked but the numerous black people who have died by the hands of police officers will never come back. At this point, who gives a crap? The Target will get fixed. When will innocent black people stop being killed though, that's the more pressing concern I reckon.

Embracing fascism without a hint of cognitive dissonance...I'm not surprised.

I mean, point taken I guess, but how do you know who owns these stores?  They could be people absolutely outraged by this tragedy and doing all they can to make a difference...

[indietraveler]

Rioting and damaging property is a bad look and hurts the cause of those peacefully protesting, but if you're more concerned with a window being broken than cops repeatedly killing black people you can miss me with anything else you have to say on this topic.

Respectfully, how many peaceful protests need to happen before the powers at be do something?

There have been hundreds of peaceful protests about police brutality yet black people keep getting killed. What are they supposed to do?

Apparently social distancing doesn’t apply to liberal “protestors”.

These guys should be recorded and denied medical treatment in the event of a shortage, just like the anti-lockdown protestors. You act ridiculous, you face the consequences.
This is not the right time for any type of physical protest (with reasonable limitations) and it is certainly not the right time to loot stores and break windows to own the “evil fascist police scum”.

And yes, the police involved in the original incident should be arrested. That doesn’t give you a pass to loot a store while spreading a deadly virus.

You still aren't listing a single valid reason to destroy property.

TBF destroying a cop car is a moderately valid emotional reaction to this strictly in Minneapolis. I think its extremely stupid and a waste of money but morally it makes a degree of sense. What doesn't make sense is looting a Target.

I agree with this, but the only difference is that I would write "Anybody who defends these cops = massive HP."
Not all cops are bad/HP. The vast majority do their job correctly and do care about the people within their communities. The job is not easy. Unfortunately, a few bad apples make the entire system look corrupt, but they are not all like that. I know and have known police officers in my life, and they are nothing like that heartless and inhuman officer in this video.

Moral of the story:  don't try to pay with forged legal tender.

Moral of the story #2:  don't resist arrest if caught.

He fought the law.  And the law won.

It's really not that hard to understand.

None of those are reasons for a cop to kill you when you are already handcuffed and on the ground.

Wow I love America at times. Two white and black men working together to prevent looters. Obviously is the black men weren't there everyone on atlas would call these 2 protectors racists white supremacists.
Anyway massive respect.
Atlas also tells me you would never need a gun to defend yourself or others and cops can do it..
These two men look like your stereotypical gun weirdos yet here they are saving the city.
2nd amendment is clearly useless and arcane.

If a police officer kills somebody in a racist wrong way 2 blocks over and a riot breaks out, that doesn't make it okay gor rioters to come to my business and break my windows and steal my property. I'll probably scare the rioters off with a weapon and would be justified in doing so.

Please change your avatar to blue.

Actually given what other blue avatars have said, grey might be most appropriate.

Regarding the looters, the job to stop them lies with the police, not with armed vigilante justice.

The riots can and should be supressed by the police and it makes no favours to the people fighting for justice and their cause.

Also using "muh property damage" to somehow say the claim of justice in policing and condemnation of this manslaughter is invalid is insane

Boy, things aren't going well in the ol' U.S. of A. these days
