Minneapolis police in the news again

[Ben]

A reminder of what the MSM thought of protests just a week ago:

More on the AR incident in Seattle:

People were calling the security guard "Special Forces" but he was a former Marine. He actually recovered both the stolen ARs, and video down the link shows that the looters were firing one of them before he took it from them.

His DI would be proud.

Seeing tweets/FB/forum posts where people are saying it must be Trump's fault because none of this stuff ever occurred under Obama
The level of willful ignorance required to say that boggles my mind.

It's stuff like this that gives me hope for our country:

"Antifa dude gets grabbed by peaceful protesters and delivered to the police line"

ETA:

I'm seeing more video evidence of peaceful protesters confronting black-clad antifa supporters engaging in violence and/or graffiti.  As usual, it's the fringes of society that cause issues for the majority.  I won't post links to all of them here, it's easy to find.

Was that grey hair on that guy?  Looked like it might actually be an older guy.  He was making some effort to keep his mask/glasses on.

White yuppies in a Mercedes handing bricks to black men so the black men can do the dirty work.

The lady in this video was spot on. The MSM should play this video as a warning, but they won't, since they're rooting for the instigators in the fancy car.

I would really like to see an investigation into this whole brick phenomenon going on across cities to see exactly who is behind it.

Another one of those examples I mentioned.  The bricks thing is bizarre and indicates organized insurrection, or perhaps false flag efforts.  I don't know which.  It seems like it should be easy to figure out how the pallets got there.  It might be perfectly legit and coincidental, although I doubt it.  Andy Ngo, who has been documenting antifa for many years now, is reporting on-the-ground organization by antifa of protests in Portland.  Directing crowds, choosing routes, etc.

Good Sheriff. :)

A tale of two autopsies

An independent autopsy into the death of George Floyd found that the unarmed black man died from "asphyxiation from sustained pressure," according to attorney Ben Crump.

The independent autopsy's findings come after the Hennepin County Medical Examiner found "no physical findings" to "support a diagnosis of traumatic asphyxia or strangulation," according to the criminal complaint released by the Hennepin County Attorney's Office in the arrest of former Officer Derek Chauvin.

More on the bricks:

One thing I hadn't been thinking about that was mentioned in the link is the cost of all these bricks. While the price mentioned at the URL looks to be way overblown, even at like $500/pallet, once you add up all the pallets, plus figure delivery logistics, it's someone(s) with money, not some cheetos eating basement dwellers.

George Soros.

No, I can't prove it.

An attempt at humor, I presume.

Hacked credit cards

Probably where Ben's hacked money went.

[grampster]

I've read a lot of stuff about Soros and what he does. Who knows what the truth is?   If he finances groups who promote violence or organize violence, why isn't he arrested for some sort of conspiracy charge?  Is he another example of how rich, powerful people are not constrained like the rest of civilized people are?  Aren't there several Federal groups who are supposed to be aware and on top of people like him?

Wouldn't doubt it!

I'm betting she's not talking about antifa. Of course Soros IS a white man, so...

The ACLU says the charge of 3rd degree murder won't stick (and the prosecutor probably knows that)  It needs to be upgraded to I suppose 2nd degree murder or it'll be thrown out.  I wonder if they mischarged him on purpose?  On the face of it, "depraved indifference" seems to fit...

The complaint filed by the Hennepin County Attorney’s Office charging former officer Chauvin with Third Degree Murder is potentially deficient on its face and therefore incurably defective because, under Minnesota law, Third Degree Murder applies only when the acts of the defendant were committed without regard to their effect on any particular person, and not when the actions were directed to a specific person. Minnesota courts have repeatedly ruled that to support a charge of Third Degree Murder, the offender’s actions need to be “eminently dangerous to more than one person.”[1]  This has been the law in Minnesota since 1896 and includes numerous state Supreme Court decisions stretching all the way to the present saying the same thing.

Something came out today, wasn't sure if was Hennepin county coroner report or the private medical examiner the family hired, or both. In a nutshell it says that Floyd's death was due to asphyxia from sustained forceful pressure

Getting sporty in Tulsa again this evening, this time in the big mall/shopping areas in South Tulsa. Tear gas and pepper balls have been deployed. Several businesses have been vandalized, windows smashed and things have been getting thrown at the police.

That was the family's ME report.  It is totally different from the county's.
