Don't matter, she black.

Man, the mayor, he woke!

He's the American Pierre Trudeau.

Blah..
That shit only works on the weak.

He had the right to a trial by a jury of his peers.

Murders should be charged with murder.  What's the complaint?

You can't see the big picture that if you go shooting people, you'll wind up shooting someone you shouldn't have *which is exactly the kinds of things leading to the increased tension with LE in the US*.

Wanna see this blow up? Have a picture of some 10YO with a bullet through her head  attributed to police plastered all over front pages across the country.

Corral, contain, arrest.

Cops had a decision to make, call in serious backup, protect property, and start arresting people or protect their turf and let the looting and burning go on - they decided to protect their turf instead.

They could start with employing effective riot control tactics. They’ve shown nothing but incompetence since day 1.

Hopefully the NG will show up with the proper equipment and show them how it’s done.

So this presser, racism stopped the wooflu?

I wonder what the thread about you getting stomped will be like?

America's fatal sin will always be the ultimate ruin of it.

So just for clarity, I went to the Minneapolis Police Department's Use Of Force policy, which is freely accessible on the internet.  It discusses the use of neck restraints:

5-311 USE OF NECK RESTRAINTS AND CHOKE HOLDS (10/16/02) (08/17/07) (10/01/10) (04/16/12)

DEFINITIONS I.

Choke Hold: Deadly force option. Defined as applying direct pressure on a person’s trachea or airway (front of the neck), blocking or obstructing the airway (04/16/12)

Neck Restraint: Non-deadly force option. Defined as compressing one or both sides of a person’s neck with an arm or leg, without applying direct pressure to the trachea or airway (front of the neck). Only sworn employees who have received training from the MPD Training Unit are authorized to use neck restraints. The MPD authorizes two types of neck restraints: Conscious Neck Restraint and Unconscious Neck Restraint. (04/16/12)

Conscious Neck Restraint: The subject is placed in a neck restraint with intent to control, and not to render the subject unconscious, by only applying light to moderate pressure. (04/16/12)

Unconscious Neck Restraint: The subject is placed in a neck restraint with the intention of rendering the person unconscious by applying adequate pressure. (04/16/12)

PROCEDURES/REGULATIONS II.

The Conscious Neck Restraint may be used against a subject who is actively resisting. (04/16/12)
The Unconscious Neck Restraint shall only be applied in the following circumstances: (04/16/12)
On a subject who is exhibiting active aggression, or;
For life saving purposes, or;
On a subject who is exhibiting active resistance in order to gain control of the subject; and if lesser attempts at control have been or would likely be ineffective.
Neck restraints shall not be used against subjects who are passively resisting as defined by policy. (04/16/12)
After Care Guidelines (04/16/12)
After a neck restraint or choke hold has been used on a subject, sworn MPD employees shall keep them under close observation until they are released to medical or other law enforcement personnel.
An officer who has used a neck restraint or choke hold shall inform individuals accepting custody of the subject, that the technique was used on the subject.

The UoF policy also defines "actively resisting" and "active aggression":

5-302 USE OF FORCE DEFINITIONS (10/16/02) (10/01/10)

Active Aggression: Behavior initiated by a subject that may or may not be in response to police efforts to bring the person into custody or control. A subject engages in active aggression when presenting behaviors that constitute an assault or the circumstances reasonably indicate that an assault or injury to any person is likely to occur at any moment. (10/01/10) (04/16/12)

Active Resistance: A response to police efforts to bring a person into custody or control for detainment or arrest. A subject engages in active resistance when engaging in physical actions (or verbal behavior reflecting an intention) to make it more difficult for officers to achieve actual physical control. (10/01/10) (04/16/12)

LeMay said, (to paraphrase) " IF the Allies had LOST the war, some might consider me a War Criminal..."  

The Good Guys Didn't Lose World War 2 and the Bad Guys (Hitler, Mussolini & Imperial Japan) were clearly beaten to defeat.

Bombing their forces & production was a significant factor in Victory.

I can't find it on their website at the moment, but another member posted the wording in the "BRAKING" thread, probably on 5/26.

To paraphrase the MPD public statement posted on their web page:

Oh the crane made it? Last night I was wondering about the heat making it fail.


At this presser they are still wearing masks, and thank God they are following CDC guidelines. I mean have they looked out the fuking window?

You’re delusional. Peaceful protests are nothing but a TPTB sanctioned way for the masses to blow off steam and make them feel like they’re doing something. 99% of the time they’re completely ignored.

It is only when there’s violence or the strongly implied threat of violence involved that the governing class takes notice.

This is why BLM protests cause actual change in policies, while protests by middle class whites seldom do. The exception here is Virginia - where Governor McBlackface opted to run away. Because even though that was ostensibly a peaceful protest, there was an implied threat of violence should the asshats in charge continue their little games.

And it’s after that people need to really start worrying about what’s coming, because the government has been willing to tolerate guns in the hands of the people up until now because they were never threatened by them. The heavily armed protests are getting attention, but TPTB aren’t cowering in fear. They’re all using their Covid break to work on massive new anti-gun legislation.

The war of northern aggression.

That day is coming for all Americans unless we change course quickly.  And I am not optimistic.

Guess I'm scratching Minneapolis off of my places to visit or live.

What "core" group is this police chief referring to?

You should tell him he needs to work more and pay more taxes to help the discriminated POC that are being oppressed by his white privilege.
The opinion that his office may have burned down is irrelevant.

Any air compressors on ebay for cheap today?

They broke the windows.

Fast rock + Window = Door.

Its always a Democrat run Shit Hole!

What do you do that you have to be "certified" in handcuffing yearly?

jfc, shaking my fucking head here...

What imagery - cops surrounding the precinct, from locals to national guard... all while the city around them burns, rioters run rampant, and crime goes unchecked.

Real good job guys. Real good. I guess as long as that precinct doesn't burn right?

No matter what side you're on, this is pathetic. Fucking pathetic.

Going to be interesting times, because this WILL be coming to other cities. There's no avoiding the seething rage just under the surface of this country.

Ever seen a building with just one broke window? I mean shit it's ocd, I'd have to even out the universe man.

I am not either.  I think we're all fucked and will die an less than glorious death

Watching these videos always makes me think it’d be way easier to use a lacrosse stick to throw back the tear gas canisters then having to pick them up by hand.

Pretty much

You have a stream of rioters breaking into your shop, who knows if they will harm you or a customer, burn your place down, ot destroy your livelihood.  Good shoot all day long in my book, but I am sure he will end up facing murder charges.

seething rage huh?

What if I told you that I could magically give you a list of the "other cities".

It's rinse and repeat. Anyone who is surprised by this hasn't been paying attention.

I do not think it is right but I can see how people would want to burn that city down till all four of those officers are put in cuffs.

Any live streams of the anarchy up?

None that I know voted for "Man Baby Jacob Cry"

looking for a power washer here..
