The Minneapolis Police Department will not alter or remove George Floyd's memorial amid ongoing protests.
"We respect the memory of him and will not disrupt the meaningful artifacts that honor the importance of his life," the police department tweeted Saturday.The tribute, which is located at 38th Street and Chicago Avenue -- near where Floyd was killed on Memorial Day when a Minneapolis police officer kneeled on his neck for nearly nine minutes -- has become the mourning place for hundreds of people over the past few weeks, and the center for various Black Lives Matter protests.
Mourners have left flowers at the location and painted murals of Floyd on the outer walls of Cup Foods. They have even erected a wooden sculpture of an upraised fist -- a symbol of the Black Lives Matter movement -- in the middle of the intersection. The MPD will not be altering or decommissioning the memorial of George Floyd. We respect the memory of him and will not disrupt the meaningful artifacts that honor the importance of his life.

George Floyd's killing sparks calls for police reform, and some unions are acknowledging the callPolice unions are the one of the most important guardians of law enforcement in the United States—negotiating salary, benefits and most importantly protections for their members. “SOME unions are acknowledging the call?” Does it mean the others don’t give a rats ass?
