  3. Wow, A couple of things, they believe the driver may have panicked but didn't mean any, harm. The driver had just unloaded fuel at a nearby gas station. I believe the person at the gas station that was interviewed was the owner and said the driver was a good guy just doing his job. On one of the videos of the arrest, I believe that it showed an officer taunting Mr. Floyd to get up into the car with the 3 officers still on him. I believe the person that called the cops in the first place begged the officer to get off Mr. Floyd;s neck along with others in the crowd. The video was shown on Court TV last night. The owner of the store offered to pay for the funeral. With that I am out of here. I just felt some different perspectives could be used in the discussions. Agreement isn't necessarily important, discussion and active listening can be to improve situations.
  4. I think there are people disappointed with both parties that are not extremists or anarchists. They just want issues dealt with, without all the political grandstanding.and posturing.
  5. So are you implying that all protesters support -antifa or are you just letting the board know what the son supports? I am not saying you are , just asking.
  6. I do not know what the agenda was regarding Target. Could be just plain criminals. Are all protesters rioters? Could there be agitators across all political spectrum's involved in rioting with agendas not having to do with police brutality and inequality? Could there be people with no agenda caught up with emotion causing damage and later regretting there actions? Does Target symbolize something different than a bank, post office, or a number of minority owned businesses in the case of Minneapolis? I have heard people say that if they try to take my guns, there will be an uprising? Is one cause better than another or more noble? Do protesters in Minneapolis want the same thing as protesters in other cities? Some of the protesters in Minneapolis said they wanted a plan to address police reform from the leaders. Some expressed the 3 others should charged. Some want to know why there were not charges right way and feel without protests charges would never have been brought. Are there people that feel the police in Minneapolis did nothing wrong in the Floyd case? Have there been protest leaders that have denounced rioting and discussed the negative impacts in the community? Can there be many layers to this or is does there only have to be one narrative? Can some common ground be found? Does it have be only one way or another? Can there be ideas and solutions that can come from some compromise?
  7. I sure this gentleman is not happy his restaurant burned but feels there are issues that need to be addressed. http://www.citypages.com/restaurants/gandhi-mahal-owner-let-my-building-burn-justice-needs-to-be-served/570866711
  8. i believe the people that have caused damage by rioting and are caught should go through the judicial system. I also believe police officers that abuse their authority, should receive the same treatment. That has not always happened, I do not feel that makes me anti-police. If someone assaults police or worse, then they should face the consequences. i do not agree with the riots. But, I am not going to be dismissive and a say stuff happens and just move on, no big deal, and look the other way regarding the Floyd incident. I believe there are issues that need to looked and addressed from whatever side of the aisle in regards to Minneapolis police department and other departments across the country, Most officers feel what happened violated procedure and ethics. The MPD union chief feels his officers rights were violated. All this over a fake $ 20 bill, which the owner of the facility feels Floyd may not realized it was fake. I do understand this country was not founded just by addressing issues through legal means such as Boston Tea Party.
  9. I guess you don't feel this has anything to do with the guy in Nashville either. ; His neighbors could have laughed at him, they could say this type of stuff doesn't. happen here. Instead, they took action. This may seem insignificant to you,. While it may not be earth changing, it seems whole lot better than the heads of both political parties tweeting back and forth saying they are right. These people found a common objective and took action. That is what makes America great.
