  1. This is why the 3rd precinct was burned down. It's right on Hiawatha and lake street. The police would harass any native person close by little earth projects

  2. These are not training issues. The NYPD didn't stop neck restraints. You could ask Eric Garner if he was still alive. The solution is simple. Across the board zero tolerance. If a police officer violates the law, violates the U.S. Constitution, they should be terminated and never be allowed to work in law enforcement again. It's a shame that it's taking a long time for police departments to start upholding the U.S. Constitution instead of ignoring it or trampling all over it.

  3. We need to start from the top fbi doj cia dea atf all need cleared out of government criminals

  4. Do you know why this incident (George Floyd) became so famous?
    CCP 🇨🇳 is behind it. China supports BLM movement to create chaos in the US. 🥲

  5. Liberals actions towards police Departments by defunding and installing "go easy on crime" liberal DA's has only led to further violence and deaths especially among the black community.
    Police departments need restructuring, better training and better vetting practices. A national database is needed where all police officers personnel files can be accessed by other Departments looking to hire new officers into their ranks. This way they could weed out the bad cops who have previously been released from duty by other departments for malfeasance. This way they could better track bad officers and have their credentials revoked before they become a serious and costly liability.
    Police officers should and must be held to a higher standard.

  6. Our Department of Justice = Broke Super Bad … McLovin, it looks like Big Brother is a Lil Kid Lover. That's a Fact, tell Jack and his Balenciaga Witches … Larry Nassar Styled OG's … Wretched Gretchen Whitmer Kidnap Hoaxers … Worse Than Walter White and Jesse Pinkman … Those Kevin Spacey Space Cadets look like they'll be celebrating at Astro Doughnuts & Fried Chicken with Snoop Dog, Leon Black, Macaulay Culkin from the Pizza Underground, Lou Pearlman, and Scary Uncle Barry … Break out the Ping-Pong Diplomacy with your Pergamon Press Perverts and Frequent Fliers of The Lolita Express … Just remember 'Cutie' the Password is = Fidelio … … …

    PS. Who's worse Trump or Putin? Or the SCOTUS Child Gang Rapist? Those MAGAmericans are Clearly More Dangerous Than the Russians. They're white supremacists too. They're so Extreme, they even Look like they Stand for Our Anthem with Ronnie Reagan. Bet, they even support the Police. Obviously, Mr. Avenatti, they're Domestic Terrorists. Look at how criminal Trump is … Mueller, Comey delivery …

    Peter Page's Insurance Plan … and the DOJ still doesn't want Americans to Tweet? That Covid Wet Market might be questioned, or worse yet, someone may ask Fauci about his Quackery? How Exactly are You Science? He's not even Bill Nye, the science guy, how many times does Tony get to Lie? And he throws a baseball worse than a pre-teen Girl. Transitioning Tony as Phony as Jim Comey. 701

    PPS. Our Brave New America = Guilty Until Proven Innocent by Jay-Z aka Jay-HOVA and 'The World's Greatest' R. Kelly … Where's Aaliyah …does Brenda know? How about Alicia the 16yr old "Aerosmith Girl?" Does Dan Schneider Know? Has Mr. Hankerson seen her? Mr. Allen? Mr. Polanski? Hope she's not having dinner with Mr. Humbert, Mr. Gates, or Vladimir Nabokov. Might end up like Alexander Litvinenko should you speak out about Berlusconi's Bunga Bunga parties … sshh, Propaganda Due, that's Hooey-Phooey. It's malarkey. You sound like a Conspiracy Theorist. #FreeBritney

    C'Mon, Man … I'm surrounded by NAMBLA! It's Raining Pederasty, and everyone in a position of authority is still pedantically screaming with frantic hysteria over … … … a tweet? … … … a piece of paper? Really, Really Harvey? Simba, Uncle Scar SUCKS.

  7. Until US Police Depts stop hiring, protecting and rewarding Cops who are Modern Day State Sanctioned Slave Catchers/Murderers. The US policing culture of racism, brutality, and murder will persist!

  8. Thank you Attorney general Merrick Garland ❤

  9. It doesn't surprised me about these reports. I lived & went to school in MPLS before moving back home to Miami, FL and I did experienced cops being so disrespectful and racist towards minorities.

  10. Justice prevailed. 🤭🫢

  11. A report confirming how Racist a Major city in this Country is; a country that was built & still thrives from Racism! Such groundbreaking news!! Even with a report; racists will stay claim its not a real issue! Ahhhh good ol U.S.A!!

  12. Over the decades, there have been many studies showing this same type of report. Yet the problem persists. What makes this one any different from those of the past?

  13. Accountability: non stop audio that can NOT be stopped or Muted, front and rear dash cameras, mandatory body worn cameras that can't be deleted or muted-yes-Both, GPS Ankle monitors for all cops, no more taking cop cars home-drive your own POV, mandatory police reports on each incident and each arrest before they get to go home, No More Qualified Immunity, forced Liability Insurance on Each Cop, training only works if a Cop Doesn't Lie so mandatory Lie Detectors after each use of force, frequent and Random-MANDATORY DRUG TESTS ON EVERY SWINGING THING! You know, no different from you or me or a UPS driver. No more illegal parking, GPS on every single police weapon and vehicle and last but not least, mandatory Law library time so no cop can ever claim they don't know the Law ever again.

  14. This is a nothing burger!!!!

  15. Police reform means, "YOU DON'T GET TO LET YOUR BASE INSTINCTS CALL EVEN ONE SHOT!!!" Like for instance it's my base instinct to call you a pig!

  16. ahhh, 🏁🏁 let the 2023 race-baiting begin folks.🏁🏁 You fell for it before, let's pull this rabbit out of the bag one last time, eh? Start burning down your cities. Keep looting the stores without any civil consequences.

    Just in time for the USA 2024 General Elections!!! Can we get a former President, or two or three or four of them….. to get put into prison now too??? No need to muck up the SWAMP waters before rolling out the ballot boxes for you to stuff full of hope and cheats.

    Good luck. I can only hope you get close to Jesus, cause He is the only thing that can save us.

  17. Garland is such a political hack. It is disgusting. He attacks the police. Yet he refuses to condemn BLM and ANTIFA. The ones who rioted, looted, burned businesses, and yes even committed murder. That he has nothing to say anything about. He is part of how the democrats are destroying America.

  18. Water. Is. Wet. DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT SMH

  19. Police force across the nation have had racist policies that have cost millions of dollars the useless lose of life of black people and our country should face the facts the police system needs a total do over from coast to coast and people need to be held accountable for these policies

  20. Don't care…Citizens are paying with there lives here in NYC and businesses robbed blind..They can continue the trend…Doesn't make a damn difference to me

  21. There are cops like this everywhere that have no business with a badge and gun.
    Their crimes are all over the internet, but nothing is ever done.
