LIVE: Mourners gather in Minneapolis for the funeral of Daunte Wright, who was shot by a police officer during a traffic stop.

"After 26 years, you would think that you know what side your gun is on and what side your Taser is on," Crump said."You know the weight of your gun, and you know the weight of the Taser."Dallas Bryant, Wright's older brother, said the family had been hoping for a more serious charge.

"I'm not too happy about it, but I'll take every win I can get at the moment," said Bryant, 23."My family wants peace. Me and our family are going to try and do it the right way." Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz asked residents to join him in a two-minute moment of silence to honor Wright at 12 p.m. CST, the same time Wright’s funeral is expected to begin.

Daunte Wright to be eulogized at Minneapolis funeralMINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Just days after guilty verdicts were handed down for the former Minneapolis police officer whose killing of George Floyd set off nationwide protests and a reckoning over racism, the family of another Black man killed by police, this time in a nearby suburb, is preparing for his Thursday funeral. Hundreds of people turned out Wednesday at a Minneapolis church for the public viewing for 20-year-old Daunte Wright , a father of one shot by a police officer on April 11 during a traffic stop in the small city of Brooklyn Center. Friends and family members wept as they stood before Wright's open casket, which was blanketed with red roses. All who viewed the open casket on Wednesday saw the young man dressed in a jean jacket bedazzled with several red and green gem-like buttons on both sides of the lapels. He shouldn’t have been gang banging in the middle ofthe night. What no copaganda? Shouldn't you be posting about how an officer donated gifts to an orphanage? Those posts are not news.

Daunte Wright Funeral Is Thursday in MinneapolisThe funeral of the 20-year-old Black man killed by police will be attended by George Floyd’s family, members of whom have been in Minneapolis for the trial of former police officer Derek Chauvin. i wonder why they never complete the sentence. the black man killed by police for breaking the law and resisting arrest. it's not like the cops just showed up and shot him. it is more race baiting by the media. do the blacks really wonder why they are seen the way they are Was this the one who choked a woman & stole her $850? I can't keep track. Based on the media and the left you wouldn't think a white person ever got killed by police. More whites killed by police than Hispanics and blacks combined.

The racist Al Sharpton the caption should include Hope the jury for this officer would find her guilty for murder & for lying about teaser vs. gun. This child shouldn’t even be pursued for a ticket violation just as Mr. Floyd shouldn’t be arrested for a $20 counterfeit. In both, citation 2 appear..as would 4 a white person. It should be murder with conspiracy; to provoke a riot to alter the outcome of the Chauvin trial.

Hundreds gather for Minneapolis funeral of Daunte WrightMINNEAPOLIS (AP) — Daunte Wright, the young Black man shot by police during a traffic stop in suburban Minneapolis, was to be remembered Thursday at a funeral just two days after a former police officer was convicted in the death of George Floyd and amid a national reckoning on racism and policing. Hundreds of mourners wearing COVID-19 masks packed into Shiloh Temple International Ministries to remember Wright, a 20-year-old father of one who was shot by a police officer on April 11 in the small city of Brooklyn Center. The Rev. Al Sharpton, the civil rights leader, was to deliver the eulogy, and told The Associated Press that he would first pay tribute to Wright, “a young man just at the beginning of life, full of life.” AL is a race pimp who seeks to divide. No racist I’m the eyes of God The reason we can’t move in from the hate for police because the media won’t allow it , they will continue to look for conflicts to push an agenda These black shootings are not about race, but about class. Please woke up.
