    Wow. Absolutely insane. It’s easy to see why the George Floyd incident just seemed like another day at the office for these monsters. That PD needs to be razed, and rebuilt from the ground up, with charges filed against any officer with a previous report against them to prevent from getting another job in law enforcement.

    Outstanding summary from this person, btw. A very well put together, and dry report of the facts 👍

    If you wrote this stuff in a story, people would say that it is too cartoonishly evil

    And surprise surprise, they have tough gun control laws. Almost like they only want cops to be able to protect themselves.

      What has gun control got to do with a misbehaving police force? There is no place in the country where having a gun will protect you from a police force - they have better numbers, more equipment, and absolutely no conscience.

      The only way to deal with this is laws, and electing officials with a backbone.

      Sadly the police union is powerful and protects the thugs, and most officials daren’t touch the topic due to fear of losing votes.
