The city of Minneapolis could be on the verge of exploding into violence and riots again when the trial for the former police officer whose arrest of George Floyd resulted in his unfortunate death.
Video of Derek Chauvin’s kneeling on Floyd’s neck triggered an eruption of widespread mayhem as cities experienced burning and looting from coast to coast with the worst of the damage taking place in Minneapolis.
The streets of Minnesota’s largest city were taken over by mobs who left destruction in their wake with large swarths resembling the rubble-strewn area of third-world countries including numerous minority-owned businesses that were laid to waste.
The city’s socialist-controlled government reacted to the carnage by demanding the dissolution and defunding of the police, a decision that has done lasting damage and left Minneapolis poorly prepared for another round of riots if the jury fails to convict Chauvin on murder charges.
Now the city council has another genius idea and approved spending over $1 million on “communication with the community” for the trial that included the hiring of at least six social media “influencers” to act as propagandists.
Prosecutor overcharged the officers, setting this up for an acquittal. City knows this is coming.
They’re going to destroy the city again no matter what the outcome is.
Unfortunately for the officer, he is going to get shafted. He will be found guilty, not because he is but to try and keep the low-life, jobless thugs from stealing and burning whatever they can.
