and lit it on fire. Police said six people were arrested and a police officer was injured after being struck in the head with a baseball bat.

The damage in U.S. cities came as many Americans plan to return to in-person church services on Sunday for the first time in several weeks since the pandemic forced a ban on large gatherings. Pastors in pulpits across the country will likely be urging peace amid the rubble of riots. Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden condemned the violence as he continued to express common cause with those demonstrating after Floyd’s death.

Overnight curfews were imposed in more than a dozen major cities nationwide, including Atlanta, Denver, Los Angeles, Minneapolis, San Francisco and Seattle.

julianamazzatv The only answer is a strictly enforced curfew. nooneoutafterdark

Police killed 1 person in MN. What about the daily murders in Baltimore Detroit Chicago they don’t seem to care about that so I guess black lives really don’t matter it only matters if a white person kill them such a racist fake movement

I guess the homeless veterans should be doing the same! They fought for their rights to damage others property's and endanger others lives

THE ENTIRE STATE OF ARIZONA IS UNDER A CURFEW FOR A WEEK.

All out of town white nationalists CULT members of Trump's paid to smash windows and throw rocks.

How many times do we have to go through these specific protests? Is anyone getting any of this?

☝️☝️

The world would be a better place without people like this.

Also, catching an attitude with law enforcement is a terrible idea. They carry a loaded weapon and are authorized to use it. You have to be the dumbest person to provoke that and nobody needs that level of stupidity in their life.

The liberal media is enemy 1 and has caused all of this. Only focusing on the sporadic deaths of black men while ignoring the FACT that they are killed much less than white people has convinced a generation of TidPod eaters that cops will kill blacks on site.

Seeing a headline that describes the US as “ Anger over police killings shatters US”. America is shattered and Trump’s idea of leadership is tweeting threats about using might and force. This is as far from Great Again as you can get.

It’s very telling about a person’s morals when they remain silent about the murder of another by a cop, but then speak out when that murder leads to riots.

That is not the storyline, but you know that.

Stop calling them fucking protestors.

JonLemire Violent fascist police are an enemy of the people. DefundThePolice

And by now, many of the participants are admiring the little trophies they have placed on their nightstands.

With Antifa scattered throughout.

It's time to take back the streets, even if the police run away.

This is no longer about a black man murdered, nor is it about police brutality. It IS about antifa and lib/Dem ran ppl inciting the destruction of the USA. Dems/libs never let a good crisis go to waste & will do all they can to oust realDonaldTrump MAGA2020. SEND IN THE TROOPS!

We’re sick of the left wing terrorists trashing our cities! Enough

Whenever I feel like protesting, I always set my favorite local store on fire and then block the fire trucks that come to put it out. It really gives me a sense of accomplishment and worth. Then, when it's over, I hide my antifa shirt and go ask mom what she's making for dinner.

Goodmorning AP, They are simply Savages

We have to stop hating each other.

Every bodies so sick of it but I don’t see any of these idiots signing up to the police academy!

Хорошие слова

Mistreatment means MURDERING. Is that right?

How about this? You go out on active duty with you badge number covered and you’re arrested and summarily fired. Police breaking our law aren’t police at all, they’re criminal brutes.

Very good 👌 Keep up the good work protestors. Now or never. Your corrupt government deserves severe reaction. The price of freedom is... BLACK_LIVES_MATTER

If your sick of it than stop torching your own neighborhoods and disrupt the local government instead. They are the ones that can create the change you want. Not looting and burning down everything because you fucking can 🤦‍♂️

Anti white protests you mean. If the knee was black...?

This isn’t a protest. It’s a coordinated attack. But you know that.

'Over mistreatment of African Americans' LOL, who really takes the media seriously anymore? Is there anyone out there who believes this BS? Hellllooooo, helllllooooo...

Do not dare to touch and arrest peaceful protesters !!! THIS IS NOT DEMOCRATIC! You are undermining the foundations of democracy and all progressive humanity!

AP this article needs to start with: Police officers who participated in the murder of Mr Floyd have yet to be be arrested and charged.

Yet, anger over police counter-violence has not risen to the point of equal tension to abate future violence.Would you rather support the people trained to control and contain their own violence, or the untamed chaos of the masses?It won't be long before you have done more damage

In America it's a sin to be black!!! Very sad

Here is a SIMPLE QUESTION for my Republican friends ACROSS the AISLE, DO American TAX DOLLARS mean Anything to you! I am THINKING 🤔 it DOES! You had the CHANCE to do the RIGHT THING and REMOVE THIS President and YOU DIDN’T! I Blame YOU! Black Lives...

Stop calling them protesters as soon as the rioting started it is THUGS and Terrorism

Idiots

The vast majority of these hooligan “protestors” don’t care about justice, they only want flat screens and free shit.

Excuse- what they do now- will change nothing- riots have no power

This is Antifa and a whole bunch of spoiled bored kids who want to instagram themselves burning up cars, businesses, buildings, steal cars/TV/alcohol, beat up shop owners, and throw bricks at people’s heads. They are not mourning anything. It’s a big gd party.

Protest loud and hard 👏

Mistreatment? No. MURDER.

................................duhhhhhh.......................

UPDATE: • National Guard members fire tear gas and rubber bullets in Minneapolis. • Dangerous confrontations flare up with protesters and police in NYC. • Police have arrested at least 1,669 people in 22 cities in recent days with nearly a third in LA.

These leftists/Antifas are so boring

Change headline from protestors to criminal insurrectionists, otherwise you are providing material support. ANTIFA is a criminal communist terror group destroying private property, burning buildings, & injuring people. Let’s find out more about their financial support network.

Put simply, if you don't want your city or town, and others across America being ripped apart by riots and civil unrest, we better make sure our police stop murdering unarmed black Americans on a regular basis!

Protests should continue

Every single moment of this was orchestrated by the left and very corrupt officials. Even the killing of George Floyd was orchestrated as a psyop. Video does not lie.

And yet the police have not yet arrested the 3 complicit cops...ffs

If you think this is about police brutality, you’re wrong. This is deliberate, planned and well-coordinated by enemies of America.

And in 2-3 weeks will see more covid19 due to the avoid of social distance practice. 🤔

FINALLY A HALF DECENT HEADLINE. GOD it's so hard to find news that doesn't have an obvious bias straight from the headline.

We can’t stop, won’t stop! Anonymous BlackLivesMatter JusticeForGeorge FuckThePolice

Think about the homeless.

I'm also sick of it even though I'm not a US citizen cos black lives matters a lot

Support the protesters.

Lies

Why doesn't this article mention the unprovoked assaults on the press by police officers across the country?

I will never watch anything associated with any of you. These celebrities are encouraging violence, looting, murder, destruction, and burning of poor people’s neighbourhoods and small businesses. SteveCarell JanelleMonae CynthiaNixon Sethrogen jtimberlake chrissyteigen

Would you be prejudice of anything unless harm was brought upon you, if you knew that what you hate, you will have to reincarnate as in the next life? A spiritual enlightening as the soul progresses through time to grow & become more than just the color of skin, or sex

Donald Trump is a child rappist and the religious conservatives don’t have a problem with that.

Racist need a curfew

When racism persists and anger wells up and eventually erupts. Eruptions do not follow any grammar. What is needed is systemic changes for the betterment of society. We live in a connected world. Racism anywhere will raise its ugly face everywhere. StopRacism

All poor folk fighting each other, while the rich and powerful sit in their nice homes and watch. No Obama? He got time to speak to world leaders but not Americans? No Trump? Coronavirus is not priority anymore. Pelosi? Schiff? McConnell? Y'all got so much to say on camera

We are sick of riots reported as protests. Sick of media who deliberately confuse the two.

They are sick of what? Getting caught in criminal acts?

..jeesss...

Violence should

We gathered from dozens of countries to raise the word of Allah while Americans trying to kill each other because of their skin color 😊

Protests=/=looting and riots

Riots. Not protests.

Animals. Enough of this crap. Time for lethal force from authorities. We want our country back.

Not protests… RIOTS. ;) FakeNews

What protesters say is fueling their anger'There needs to be change, officers need to be trained better.' As protesters gather in cities like Minneapolis, Atlanta, Charlotte and other places across the US, anger and frustration continue to grow over the death of George Floyd. It’s gonna take a hell of a lot more than training a few officers. How about all the Trumpers who agree with all of his constant endless dog whistles It is not... the training (?).... Racisms... It's: inclinational-bents, and Predelections; is a mind-set. It is not the fault of the police, so don't set the police car on fire. It is the fault of the people living in the White House. There is no use protesting against the White House for it is carefully protected. I wonder what the people living in the White House are thinking about

Loretta Lynch on death of George Floyd: Reason for anger 'about more than just one case’“The reason why you see so much anger, so much frustration, is because it’s really about more than just this one case,” fmr. AG Loretta Lynch says of unrest in Minneapolis following the death of George Floyd. “It is about how we police in America.” Yes, the body politic has been damaged over the years. When it finally becomes obvious for everyone to see then any pretense to some higher understanding is destroyed. Trump has helped to create this hatred. Another example of his work. The Anti-President. We want work and development Because Latina and India take black and white place so we full in church and food stamps and homeless and army and hospital diagnoses program ) that not police system but Latina systems All of the riots going on tonight is the fault of folks like you. You created this mess.

Rihanna Speaks Out About the 'Devastation, Anger, and Sadness' She's Felt After George Floyd's DeathRihanna posted on Instagram to express her feelings after 46-year-old George Floyd died after a Minneapolis police officer pinned him to the ground and pressed his knee into his neck. Celebrity opinion needs to be silent. Your community just spews hate division and uninformed messages to millions. You have all done it since the last election. Messages of condemnation and judgement. Just stay out of politics and social justice. Your just a singer. Yes Elle please don’t try and sell a story on your shitty magazine because Rihanna spoke about a death of a fellow black man. Why don’t you have some fucking decency. Where is the story about George and how he and others have died in the last few weeks? Without a celebrity mention!
