Why would police act this way. Maybe it’s because on average 100 officers a year are murdered on the streets of America whilst they are doing their job protecting people. But hey, they are cops so that’s OK then.

I know you like to be controversial and think outside of the box and all that but seriously, just fuk off.

I believe George Floyd's family would angrily dispute that the police were protecting him.

Covered that point Max. Said he should be prosecuted. I’m sure his family would agree.

And that is exactly what has happened, he has been arrested and charged. Now the evidence can be tested in a court of law. Due process.

o-no wrote: ↑Fri May 29, 2020 4:07 pm There's no excuse of course, but could it be that some of the police are just really, really scared all of the time - so everything has to be met with excessive overwhelming force and overreaction?

If they are so scared that they can no longer "protect and serve" the communities they police they should ask themselves why that is. Maybe they don't see their role as protectors but as enforcers.

Policing can only ever happen with the trust and consent of the community.

That’s the problem in that country with policing, are they protectors or enforcers. I’ve seen both sides and the side that enforces is not one I’d want to mess with.

I was at Venice beach and was talking to about 5 of them standing on a corner about the area, the openly selling Canabis shop opposite them and the atmosphere which was building. Anyway one of them said something to another and off he went to the car and came back with a shotgun and told the crowds to disperse. I’m like what the hell, he's armed to the teeth already and now he’s fully capable to taking someone’s head off with the shotgun.

I do beleive that they don’t trust anyone, partly out of fear of the other person(s) having a weapon on them. They are very quick to pull their weapon, and as we’ve seen on TV they don’t mind using excessive force very quickly. There is no talking to them, it’s do what they say or your likely to be in big trouble very quickly.

Like the video I posted the other day, Changes by Tupac, the words are as relevant today as they were back when he wrote it. It’s tragic that George Floyd suffered at the hands of a murderer in a state uniform. He didn’t resist arrest, he didn’t cause any issues for them and rather than sort out any issue they may have had with him they end up killing him. Disgraceful. If what Kent says is true many people have Floyds death on their hands and need to be flushed out the system as the system seems or appears broke.

It doesn't take 1 min to get you arrested, cuffed and thrown in a wagon. I'm fuming more than can ever be imagined over this.

It's right that the public rise up, it's right that their voices should be heard and it's right to protest at Floyd's death.
