I have as much contempt for the MSM as anyone, but this is over-the-top banana republic shit right here.  This is fucking Soviet or communist China shit.  Where are they taking him? To a re-education facility?

Normally I would say bad arrest, but having watched CNN wage war on America on behalf of the dems, I'll have a Coke.
This is what the all powerful govt. they demand will do to the little people. Nice that they get a taste of it.
BTW, this is what they want to happen to us just for existing.

Between killing Floyd, disarming law-abiding citizens, pepper-spraying peaceful protesters from out of a cruiser’s window as they drove by, abandoning their own precinct stations, and now this, they don’t need any help looking like incompetent banana-republic statist goons.

Because standing in the way when the police are lawfully clearing the streets is legal?  You should also look and see that he and the crew were in the street and not the corner.

Interested for you to state what crime was committed.........Please expound......

The crew says they were initially standing on a corner. Were they moved to the street for the arrest??

Arresting a CNN crew who is asking where to move is not really the intent of that law.  The law is intended to compel cooperation with police, which was already obtained once they asked where an acceptable place to move was.

I hate to defend cnn, but in this case...mnpd fucked the goat, again.

If nothing else, that cop should be fired for not understanding the optics of that action in the current situation.

It was four guys from CNN with a fancy satellite TV camera. It was obvious they were journalists, not looters. When police approached them, while they were broadcasting live on a national network the on air reporter politely explained who he was, what he was doing and said the crew would move.

This was a big fuck up that the press will use to beat the MN police with, justifiably so. This shows just an amazing lack of judgment by police officers.

Lol.  A lot of the public thinks State Police are the top of the LE heap.
They’re not street cops, and out of their comfort zone they’re not always competent.

Coward cops abandon their own station while state cops arrest reporters.

I'm not trying to give you a hard time. Staying in the streets when the police are announcing for people to move is obstruction of governmental administration (or whatever the same law in MN is) but normally film crews are allowed to film if the crew itself isn't in danger.
