, City Council Vice President Andrea Jenkins and Police Chief Medaria Arradondo all pleaded for calm.Jenkins said protesters should be angry about Floyd's death in police custody, but they have no right to"perpetrate violence and harm on the very communities that you say you are standing up for."National Fraternal Order of Police President Patrick Yoes
"The fact that he was a suspect in custody is immaterial — police officers should at all times render aid to those who need it," Yoes said."Police officers need to treat all of our citizens with respect and understanding and should be held to the very highest standards for their conduct." Representatives from the U.S. Department of Justice, FBI, the Minnesota Department of Public Safety, along with Hennepin County Attorney Michael Freeman, offered no significant updates other that to promise a swift and thorough investigation of the officers involved in the Floyd case.
BreakingNews just goes to show black lives dont matter but buildings do
The Police Dept have not got a clue, their tactics are uncoordinated and using totally random methods of engagement. Poor training and poor guidance. MayorFrey MinneapolisPD NO CLUE.
morgfair He fanned the flames of protest with his initial statement, not a good message to bring calm. Now that his city is burning I’m sure he’s regretting that.
selfdeclaredref This guy is completely delusional
Obamas America message year after year was on how we are supposed to act. Then it was be like and then its up to you not up to the government as of last week!He is getting the point across to these people! Media thinking this is still Obama's America are having a rude awakening🤣
NBCNightlyNews I wonder how that cop feels to know all of this is because of him and his lack of humanity!
MAGA'S MURDER
You can tell he is way over his head here. He has no plan. He has no specifics. He is just hoping the riots burn itself out.
Soft.
BreakingNews Why do you continue to call these riots protests
JoeBiden JoeNBC Thom_Hartmann Looting comes in two forms in this country. The poor looting in the streets angry at the system. The system looting our treasury and giving to the rich.
BreakingNews You can take a different route, arrest that cop on charges of murder.
Better tell the white “agent provocateur” that was the first one to start breaking out the auto zone windows.
Mayor Jacob Frey called-out by Trump. pathetic.
RIOT not protest
Total lack of leadership by another Dem ran state.
BreakingNews This dude failed the city. They all failed.
What if they stormed the press conference live ..
Empathetic but seemingly ineffective. “A riot is the language of the unheard' Dr. Martin Luther King.
What a fuckin toolbox.
That time a Trump supporting neo-Nazi police officer got caught inciting riots in Minneapolis:
Arrest that stupid cop and all this will go away.
You mean the RIOTS going on now, right?
ICantBreathe Racism is tearing American society apart. The American government believes that it is possible to kill any black man on the grounds that the black man has slave blood and will not resist. The human rights of the black community have been seriously violated
TODAYshow Please correct your headline. It was reported Thursday morning on *your* broadcast that he died at the scene.
He didn't die 'later at a hospital'. He died right there on that street with a knee on his neck and his face pressed into the pavement. ARREST THOSE COPS!
Rage Against The Machine. ICantBreathe
Big Ten should kick Minnesota out. Disgusting behavior.
I get the injustice here, but why are people so dumb they riot & start fires & destroy property?What exactly does that accomplish? So pathetic! Breaking the law like that is no better then the cop who killed Floyd
You murder someone and lose a job.. get caught for weed you like serving 8 yrs

The utopian world of Socialists and the Democrats. SocialismFails
They shouldnt investigate the police officers if this crap continues n then maybe the thugs would stop..wait nevermind that is what the thugs do they riot when they don't get their way
This is how all the Blue Cities will eventually end. Anyone that can should leave.
Where’s the military? They need to start eradicating the threats.
Ah, Democrats...
When black people say they’re tired of being killed by the police, believe them!
At what point will the mayor and city council say, Enough is Enough? How much of the city will they allow to be burned? How many private businesses destroyed?
