Protests have swept across multiple major US cities, with crowds taking to the streets to demand action on police brutality. In Memphis, signs were held for black Americans who had recently been killed -- George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, and Breonna Taylor.

Minneapolis and St. Paul, known as the"Twin Cities" of Minnesota, both saw huge protests. In St. Paul, protesters faced off against riot police, batting tear gas canisters back and forth. More than 170 businesses were looted or damaged by the protests, police said. And in Minneapolis, thousands of protesters surrounded a police precinct and set it on fire. They spray-painted the sides of the building, tried to climb up it, and cheered as the flames engulfed the building.A protester winces in pain after being sprayed with pepper spray by police during a demonstration near the Memphis Police Department precinct in Memphis, Tennessee, on May 28.

'protests'

Its believed that 46% of Americans white police officers are members of kkk movement

We stand with the American people in their pursuit of freedom and equality and respect their legitimate protest. Against the use of force by the police and the government!

That’s a message for them to put stop to the killings and being racist. GOD that created two colors have his reasons.

Atleast some time f those people are following the law with there mask.. but burning down there City well

👌👌👌👌👌👌👌

Violence against citizens cannot be tolerated through silence. Let’s unite, scream enough, then act by being the change you wish to see in the world.

Just a reminder...watch the below in Toronto... Police with the right goal in their head and the training to deescalate can do it right. First do no harm.

Injustice, inequality and repression are 'tinderboxes'. If you keep these in your home, you must know the ensuing flames will consume you and everyone and everything you have worked for.

Why must people protest to recieve justice. Put the man in prison

I am not an American man, but is it true?

香港廢柴看看米國的盛典,香港警察還是黑警嗎?中國及香港政府應該方布法案,防控米國黑警殺人打人,維護米國人民的自由和民主,米國如果沒做好這個,就不要出來說三道四。。。

This just proves my point: everyone says we're all equal, that's clearly not the case because no other race has to endure this year after year except black people....my people. Tell me: where's the equality again?

Protesters? More like domestic terrorists....you truly are lost CNNdestroyingAmerica CNNisFakeNews FakeNewsMedia FakeNewsAlert CNN Antifa

And the worst part of all this is that the president is “glorifying” violence instead of preventing it!!!
