The Minneapolis Neighborhood at the Center of Protests Over George Floyd’s Death

MINNEAPOLIS—Felix Tlatenchi picked up garbage and broken glass Friday morning, throwing them into trash bags he had brought with him as he tried to clear the littered parking lot of the U.S. Bank in Minneapolis’s Longfellow neighborhood, the epicenter of protests over the death of George Floyd.

When members of the community support the protestors who are burning down their homes and businesses, you get an understanding of how deep the pain goes and how committed the citizens are to seeing justice done. protests justice GeorgeFloyd BreonnaTaylor AhmaudArbery

Let me quest: The person you described as sympathetic to the looters is not an owner of one of the businesses destroyed!

“Minnesoooosta Nice” even the arsonists leave ya’ half a building.

I sympathize with the protesters, too. But those weren't protests and those were not protesters.

OPEN LETTER TO UN: WE, THE BLACKS OF THE WORLD WANT TO BREATHE. PLEASE CREATE A LAW (THE GEORGE FLOYD ACT) THAT PROHIBITS THE POLICE FROM KILLING US. NO MORE SUMMARY EXECUTIONS. AWAY WITH THIS DAMOCLES SWORD.

If anyone get killed by the National Guard Trump should be charge with murder and arrested for conspiracy to murder and murder it appears that Trump is carrying out the white supremacist agendas to start a race war.

You ever notice that the places where this shit happens is always Democrat ran? Chi town, Minn, Baltimore, NYC all democratic leadership. Why is that the case? Why does the one party who is the largest voice against this always in charge when it happens? DEM created KKK racists

GOOD PEOPLE

But there is no reason to be thuggish! Reason for thuggish is that they feel entitled. These are the entitlement groups feed by liberals dems in this country and they feel they have no way out! dem owned it!

They don't get that an arrest without evidence from the med examiner would have allowed the cop to get off....

There is a storm brewing. We’ve seen this before. LA riots 1992. Long overdue.
