Demonstrators protest the death of George Floyd, Sunday, May 31, 2020, near the White House in Washington. Floyd died after being restrained by Minneapolis police officers
Protesters in Philadelphia hurled rocks and Molotov cocktails at police, officials said, while masked crowds broke into upscale stores in a San Francisco suburb, fleeing with bags of merchandise. In Minneapolis, a truck driver drove into a massive crowd of demonstrators nearly a week after George Floyd died after pleading for air as an officer pressed a knee into his neck.
“Maybe this country will get the memo that we are sick of police murdering unarmed black men,” said Lex Scott, founder of Black Lives Matter Utah. “Maybe the next time a white police officer decides to pull the trigger, he will picture cities burning.” Yet thousands still marched peacefully, with some also calling for an end to the fires, vandalism and theft, saying it weakened calls for justice and reform.
“We’re not done,” said Darnella Wade, organizer for Black Lives Matter in neighboring St. Paul, where thousands gathered peacefully in front of the state Capitol. “They sent us the military, and we only asked them for arrests.”
IF STATE GOVS WUD JUST ANNOUNCE THEY WERE MEETING WITH BLACK COMMUNITY LEADERS & POLICE CHIEFS TO CHANGE POLICY, ALL OF THIS CHAOS WOULD PROBABLY STOP! BUT THER NOT DOING ANYTHING! ITS JUST COMMON SENSE! PEEOPLE WANT CHANGE..SO MAKE THE EFFORT TO CHANGE!!
Joe Biden said Monday that police under attack in the line of duty should shoot their assailants “in the leg instead of the heart” as a way to avert the killing of civilians.

Don’t fall into the trump trap. He will use your arrest to somehow prevent you from voting in Nov. Maybe making anything a federal offense? Imagine a whole voting block (in addition to suppression already happening) being officially prevented from voting because they protested.
Can we all stop pretending these Molotov cocktail tossing, brick throwing, window breaking, fire starting, television looting protests have anything to do with Floyd?
So ... is make America great yet.
I wonder why most of the people arrested for these protests have been from out of state. Interesting how it's not the local people that are at the forefront of these movements. Almost like they're being sent in by some kind of organization
Are the riots because the major cities ran out of free atm machines?
This is a distraction news article
Stop resisting arrest and comply!

I found my kid doing this shit. I'd do the same damn thing in this clip. Do the Madea - MA-damn to the DEA
Yet, 3 of the cops haven't been arrested. They should all get murder 1. On top of that the gurney carrying cops (do research), they were not EMT, should get murder 2. NoJusticeNoPeaceProsecuteThePolice NoJusticeNoPeace BlackLivesMatter
Would be more believable if you used accurate terms like thugs and rioters.
So how is setting fire to, robbing, vandalism, part of the protests? The people responsible for this are destroying there own cities.
the police started the violence .
Y’all care more about and will take the time to arrest looters steeling replaceable goods then you do about the black and brown lives of America ARE LIVES CANT BE REPLACED THAT ROLEX CAN
Explain why these Nazis were never tear gassed, shot at, or arrested. Oh wait. I see. They are white. That is the difference. We need to fire all the racist cops & develop better hiring practices. Racists should not in be in law enforcement, the national guard or the military
When Black America wakes up and realizes Antifa is setting them up, and the media is helping them, then we can join forces and change the nation. Vote Red and let's make the left pay for treating you like a vote and not a human!
And what was done with them? Arrested and let go. No time.....maybe a ticket. And?
George Floyd's OWN WORDS
I am so sorry that the blatant murder of George Floyd is being exploited by criminals and anarchists. The naïve children that are following them are not doing the cause any favors. The Minn Gov. had allowed this cop to abuse people for years, don't punish working people.
Thank God the black folks were there to keep the peace. I mean check the videos, ALL white people looting and stealing. White people burning buildings. Big ups to the 'African American' community for being peaceful.
So these protesters, a lot of them are black, are looting shops, burning cars and buildings, many of whom belong to black people. I don’t get it 🤷♂️ EveryLifeMatters
This is not protest, Its civil war.
Peaceful protestor shot with rubber bullet in Mpls:
This is class warfare riots! People are tired of US government's corruptions and using police as their enforcers. The government is at fault for all the job losses and inequalities.
Wow! Not a single mention of peaceful protest. No mention of George Floyd. This is the press.
These are riots
Okay.. if any of you think burning the American flag is a good way of a tribute to George? Kill yourselfs. End your life now. The dead man is tossing and turning at half of you acting like this. Might as well rot.
Violence/rioting & looting is not protesting! Wake up!!!!
Sadly, our cities with the worst destruction are run by progressive Democrats. The Deadliest and Most Crime Ridden Cities are All Run by Democrats.
They emptied the jails for covid now they’re full? Here we go again! Lockdown, more unemployed!!! Smart?
We give lots of tours of the LincolnMemorial and the WW2 Memorial, and Lafayette Square & Lafayette Sq near the WhiteHouse, and we're sad and angry at the destruction around them: Our tours:
NoJusticeNoPeace We cannot fight for justice if we are fighting against those who agree with us. It should be NoPeaceNoJustice NO PEACE NO JUSTICE. You will never get justice unless there is peace.
Better start using more Force . LIBERAL Justice is a joke. Where are fire fighters hiding these people down.
THANK U SHARE AND LIKE PLEASE
Well let's see if a riot will break out about blacks, killing blacks in the black community on a daily basis. Lets see who ups for that. Because all black mens and boys do is kill each other. Let's riot about ! How blacks don't get along with one another.
Shoot into the crowds point blank.....liquidate a few hundred antifa scum, and the rest will cower away back to their leftist hovels
Arrest them as terrorist under the patriot act if they looted
your bullet points and pictures are imbalanced and, therefore, unfair portrayals of what is actually occurring with these protests. you are highlighting only the negative and by doing so delegitimizing the protests and contributing to the racial injustice.
The democrat cities that released all the criminals during covid should have plenty of cells available to lock the anarchist up in.
Proving yet again that Multiculturalism doesn't work, cannot work, and will not work. Its only surprising that this hasn't yet turned into street fighting with so many guns in private hands.
So exactly how is all the protesting, rioting and looting suppose to improve race relations? These have been going since the LA riots and absolutely nothing has changed or will change. If a person is racist, all this is doing is provoking them
Inaccurate Reporting. Not Protestors. Its outside agitators MAGA, WHITE NATIONALIST, MOB, INFOWARS, street mob soldiers that Trump called up with MAGA Night to loot, burn, riot & blame on BLM & REAL protestors. Either do it correctly or is inciting more violence.
Let me guess... at the end of your update you will blame President maduro_en ? 🙃
protests2020 StopTheViolence these people who are committing violent acts are rioting. The peaceful protests are overshadowed by the attention to the rioters
THESE ILLEGAL DEMONSTRATIONS MUST STOP. THEY HURT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. ALL THE MANKIND WEEPS FOR GEORGE FLOYD MURDER. BUT THE CHAOS IS NOT WELCOMED IN THE USA WHERE COVID 19 HAS KILLED MORE THAN 100000 VICTIMS . GIVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO realDonaldTrump TO REINVIGORATE THE ECONOMY
LIBERATE D.C.
They’d rather arrest 4100 people for protesting than arrest 3 officers complicit in the murder of an American citizen
This is not what a protest looks like.
Yeaa!! Lets burn their cheap oil🔥🔥
Looters arrested rather than being shot
Black people are treated terrible by cops, but its not only them. Its all low income of all races. Cops think theyre ABOVE regular people, they need to be reminded WHO THEY WORK FOR! MinneapolisUprising
Yes, the United States is a police country. There is no doubt.
Congrats , you're doing Manson's work. Keep cherrypicking stories & fanning flames in pursuit of your agendas.
Yes blame 400 years of white and black hatred on Trump - Presidents Kennedy, Johnson, Clinton, Obama did nothing for blacks - except take their votes
AP stop providing cover to these communist anarchist groups that riot and burn buildings including churches by conflating it with Mr Floyd death. The terrorists whether ANTIFA or supermacist both have one goal - replace our constitutional republic with dictatorship.
San Diego police fire tear gas to abuse citizens just because they can. Constitutional right to protest revoked by poorly trained bully boys
Ap tally shows roughly 4000 unconstitutional arrests as citizens rights are brushed aside by vicious militarized police
Is it true that change is bad? If was no politician yesterday but last week my decisions are punished publicly by shunning, and when I woke up this morning I got charged for your punishment; what I’m asking is do I have split personalities BC you can’t keep up with your judgemnts
All hell breaks loose when people start acting EMOTIONAL rather than RATIONAL! No matter how hard you try, you can't fight fire with fire
These headlines do not accurately reflect the stories people are sharing from the frontline. Do better .
They need to be firing more than teargas at these savages.
nobody ever thinks of the poor folks who'll have to clean this shit up.
Of the 4,100 arrests, let's hope the count includes at least a couple dozen radicals, who crossed State lines to incite locals, then reward their criminal behavior. Someone's $$$ are funding this Civil unrest. It has nothing to do with the death of GEORGE. G. SOROS comes to mind.
What a beautiful sight to behold. 👏😎🍉
Were all 4,100 people arrested over days of demonstrations involved in the acts of violence or were the peaceful demonstrators arrested under the guise of combating violence?
This had been a planned and coordinated attack. This is domestic Terrorism!!!!
None of them give a shit about George Floyd.
Update, America is on fire & drumpf is hiding in a bunker built by slaves. BunkerBitch
This photo makes the news but not ones like this of our 100% peaceful candlelight vigil where we all cheered & agreed to no violence or looting interrupted by police in full blown riot gear turning a beautiful moment of remembrance into a full blown war zone. sandiegoprotests
THIS has NOTHING to do with FLOYDS DEATH. TWO WRONGS DONT BRING CHANGE. These are people are NOT protesters they are RIOTERS. VIOLENT people committing violent crimes against all Americans and not related to the peaceful demonstrations on constitutional rights Keep it real people
unfollowtrump realDonaldTrump
The Army needs to show up and start shooting these mother fuckers. This is no longer about blacks getting shot. This is all about animals rioting and destroying people businesses.. Just stop already
I wonder if the DOJ will request a continuance in the Flynn case ( the guy who plead guilty but knows a guy)so they won’t have to inconvenience the protesters during their rioting against injustice!
Should be 41,000 arrested
RIOTS . Not demonstrations, RIOTS.
AND 3 OF THE KILLER COPS HAVEN’T BEEN ARRESTED YET
Just two weeks ago when mobs of white people armed themselves to the teeth and stormed state capitals to cough on cops because they wanted haircuts and apparently that was fine.
Are you guys still calling this stuff 'protests?' Look, the peaceful people assembling are protesters. The rioters and looters are NOT protesters.
☹️
Trump is Lord
Not a protest for Christ sake.
Be very clear. Some places are off limits. We are referring to the White House. The one who lives there is the Commander in Chief of the US Army and Navy and Militia. Cause chaos and martial law can be declared. Our military is battle ready. Always. Do not go there.

Racism Is Terrorism. Anonymous GeorgeFloyd GeorgeFloydProtests
Hmm..4100 arrested. Still only one of four murderers or George Floyd, and the one who was arrested got a lesser charge than his crime. Interesting.
fakenews these are race riots fomented by the left. these people are infecting each other with COVID19 and the left is cheering it on.
They wouldn't have put up with this at Kent State.
4000 people got arrested to save 4 from getting arrested!
Considering they let rapist go because they were worried they might catch the flu they should have room for more of these rioters.
Just unfollowed realDonaldTrump . He is supposed to lead a United States. Instead he's Dividing States! If he won't leave social media then we need to leave him with no followers so he can shout into nothingness.
Those are called “riots”. Use correct wording!
This can't be good for global warming
Who are those arrested? Will their names be published?
What they wont show you!
So where are the Bikers for Trump when he needs them?
Near Whitehouse? Did they miss?
These aren't protesters....call them what they are....rioters and anarchists.
There is little hope America survives. Humans have not grown. Trump didn’t start this but has fanned the flames.
Y la Maldita prensa hablada y escrita, con su terrorismo mediático, incendiando la República, que les da de comer.
Stop burning the cars. Destroy it and use the parts as shields!
Updates on U.S. protests: — Protesters in Boston clash with officers, throwing rocks and lighting a police vehicle on fire. — Protesters start fires near the White House. — Unrest spreads in Chicago neighborhoods, suburbs.
Dear (good) white people: you don't have to be black to show solidarity to our suffering... Thank you in advance!
Beautiful scenery line, as Pelosi said.
Just shoot them. Not worth the worry.
Every time you see a video or picture of people being brutally beaten or killed in these riots. Remember these celebrities encourage violence by offering to pay $millions to anyone arrested. SteveCarell JanelleMonae CynthiaNixon Sethrogen jtimberlake chrissyteigen
I have to be honest. I believed that these protests/demonstrations would have died down today. It appears that I was wrong. The question now is will these continue throughout the week?
Keep it up !! Tea party 2020
Land of the free, home of stupidity.
'Demonstrators' ; 'protesters'... These RIOTERS are NOT protesting or demonstrating anything; they are *violent* anarchists (anti-Government) whom take any opportunity to destroy the USA. They call themselves Antifa AntifaRiots
