Minnesota Burning

Minneapolis and St. Paul are known as the twin cities. I get the feeling that Minneapolis must be the evil twin. RIM SHOT!

We've come so far with respect to peace, love and racial understanding since I was born nearly sixty-two years ago, but Lord Knows we've got a long way to go. The tragedy of George Floyd at the hands of one stupid and vicious cop is a punch to the face of every person with a molecule of humanity. This is not something that good and decent people do.
Watching the idiotic bastard drain George's life from his body in such a hideously nonchalant way - with his hands in his pockets - is a disturbing image that generations of people (black and white) will carry with them to their graves. I understand that charging him with first degree murder night be a tricky prospect which could lead to an acquittal, but he should have, at the very least, been charged with second degree. Anything else is unacceptable. Did Derek Chauvin somehow think the was acting heroically when he forcefully jammed his knee onto George Floyd's neck? He must have known that several cellphone cameras were recording his every move! Were the hands-in-the pocket merely some kind of macho pose? What the hell was he thinking? I'd love to know the answer to that one.
I was almost tempted to post a link to the video of the murder of George Floyd at the bottom of this piece but I thought better of it. In fact, I hope I never have to see it again; so awful and disturbing is it. But it is a bleak reminder of the inhumanity towards our African American brothers and sisters that is exhibited on a daily basis in too many parts of this country.
Will it ever go away? I have no answers.

Good thing President Trump ordered the FBI to become involved within in 3 hours of Floyd's death.
When will progressives join blacks in condemning the actions of ANTIFA?
One thing for sure, those Blue States and Blue cities are sure safe, peaceful havens.
Bill de Blasio FOR PRESIDENT, LOL!

BALTIMORE (WBFF)– According to sources mounds of bricks and bottles have been found in Downtown Baltimore.
Baltimore Police confirmed they are working with law enforcement partners to sweep the area.
There are several demonstrations planned for Monday evening. Sources FOX45, officers are being briefed on the situation during roll call.
Blame Trump.
Would JTF ever admit to the fact his racist white nationalist buddies are fueling the violence and are just as likely to leave bricks as anyone?
White supremacists pose as Antifa online, call for violence

Remember his beloved Dear Leader re-tweeted, "The only good Democrat is a dead Democrat".
These people are no different than Nazis.
