  1. Police Reform is well overdue. There are better ways to police communities. The entire culture needs to be addressed. Police are doing what they are trained to do. that is the problem. The entire mindset is faulty. Better strategies, tactics, and approaches to situations. America is unique in this massive problem. There are examples of better policing practices all over the world.

  2. Will they also point out that the sun will rise again tomorrow. How is this news? Did anyone not already know this?

    1. Yep, and if Chauvin hadn’t held his knee to his neck for nine minutes he would be alive. The one in the position of power and who is a trained government agent has more of a duty to act responsible Also, many African Americans, rightly so, are scared of Police so resisting is understandable.

    2. @Chris Mathis And if he hadn’t resisted, Chauvin wouldn’t have had his knee on his neck for a single second. A citizen also has the duty to act responsibly.

    3. @Skippy Skipperson Yes but the police often deal with mentally ill people and those under the influence of drugs which affects their ability to behave reasonably. Unless his life is threatened a cop should never use deadly force. A man in handcuffs lying face down in the street is not a threat to a team of cops.

    4. @Skippy Skipperson Restraining Chauvin is one thing but putting a knee into the back of his neck and restricting his breathing by using his handcuffs into his back is a whole other thing.

  3. Human life now politicized. Once everything is politicized what happens next? What does history tell us?

  4. So many have wondered why the Lord didn’t just stop this pandemic? He could have. I’ve prayed upon this very issue oftentimes. Now I know, He knew what people were really like, not all of us were aware. The pandemic squeezed everyone, now we know. Tucker and Rick Scott and other’s have just come out with it. They think America belongs to them and only them, and they are willing to do whatever it takes to keep white privilege, even if it means destroying America to do so. “When people tell you who they are, believe them.” Maya Angelou (Now I do!)

    1. The Lord? You have prayed? Please don’t use God for your opinions. This country is becoming Sodom and Gomorrah and God destroyed it. I have family waiting to come legally while coyotes are collecting millions of dollars to abuse people. Have you wondered where are those children going? I don’t think you have really learned what is happening in this country. You are being fed propaganda that has been used before. There’s no “white privilege”. Those words are used to divide people and gain power. That’s what the left is doing not just with the US but also in Latin America.

    2. @Mabel’s Favorites you just said don’t use “God” for your opinions…..and you did precisely that for your own opinion.

  5. Your daily reminder that the police legally can and do reject applicants for scoring too high on the intelligence test

  6. I vote dog robots (NY, $74k/unit) to replace “officers” … am calling it Ohmygod because you will point to it and say thusly

  7. This trial, and the death of George Floyd, has already made a difference. Note, the Buffalo cop, fired in 2008 for stopping a choking incident by a fellow officer. She was fired and denied her benefits, until this week, when the judge who found for her, cited the death of George Floyd and the trial of Chauvin. Its changing.
