The right way to do this to it right you know. Pretty good stuff this so much were going to go back down the river start a business to run it like that. But you got to see if youre going to do it you got to do it i mean marriage the civil rights attorney representing George Floyds family described to was a long standing pattern of Police Brutality against i think my own ethnic minorities in the u. S. Americas the Deadliest Police culture in the modern world there is no nation on the planet that kills in the car so its more of his people we are in a crisis position Tony Ben Crump and i announced this morning that we are taking these families the family of george floyd a model barry bianna taylor to washington d. C. And we want to discuss comprehensive Police Reform were all screwed bringing this case before the United Nations Human Rights Council so that we can receive sanctions against the United States for its provisions and continual denial for basic human rights to the Africanamerican Community. Which right now are met our primary goal is to show to ensure that the appropriate charges move forward and so we are not satisfied yet 3rd degree murder is an appropriate charge it means it was an accidental killing it like manslaughter the the the partner charge they they levy if i get in my car i get a drug that only intend to kill anybody but its reckless behavior that could result in somebodys death thats manslaughter this 3rd degree murder but when i apply pressure for sustained period of time to a critical area of someones throat. Thats and its all about foreseeability its foreseeable that that kind of action will result in death or Bodily Injury so thats murder were looking forward to speaking with the governor on behalf of the the family and encouraging him to activate the attorney general keith ellis to come in take over this in this case bring the appropriate charges and make the requisite arrests. When the family is very concerned about the safety of the public these people are standing up not only for george theyre standing up for themselves is standing up for the community but theyre doing so by standing up against begin one of the most Brutal Police forces on the planet and i dont mean minnesota i mean the American Police force in general they only know 2 things incarceration and brutality and so they are concerned that when. Interlopers come and break things and bird things that invites harm to other peoples children they dont want to see that happen. Protests of laos spread beyond the u. S. Border with people gathering near the u. S. Embassy in berlin where chanting slogans and Holding Signs with the phrase black lives matter its unclear yet whether the protests was authorized another peaceful protest is being planned in london for tomorrow. Nikki certain a civil rights activist says the Current Situation could be a spur for change. Hoping that maybe with all of this able to create something new and start and so start over as much as you possibly can and maybe im hoping that some of these businesses that have been destroyed will be able to buy back our community because its very important and. The divide finance the economic income gap in minnesota for the black families versus white families there im completely different scales so its one of the worst places in the nation for africanamericans to live as a result on all of the lists from anywhere of being one of the top 10 worst in the nation the middle east but a lot it sounds absolutely top 10 best places in america its. High. Earning places but its not for us and so im hoping that maybe this destruction will help to level out and help bring us where we need to be in our own state and moving forward around the country because its not just about minnesota im seeing atlanta im seeing all these other places and theyre demonstrating and im hoping that they can create the same thing im hoping we can create which is the destruction and something new and something more positive and something there and reasonable where we have equity and assets and are able to inherit generational well so we can and this is some White Supremacy that we living in. The governor of minnesota claim some of the violence is no longer about george flowing on this video you can see a man trying to burn the American Flag in Los Angeles Paul in atlanta a news outlet cnns office was attacked by riotous. Youre not in the newsroom this is from your christer job some people are laughing some people were videotaping or something on fire chris a firecracker you think you got fired. Youre right youre ok the protests were dominating global Media Coverage on a scale of open looks at how bad coverage compares with the protests in both to more some years back. Shocking put it has emerged that protesters breaking windows forging buildings and clashing with the Police Thousands of taken to the streets to protest against the recent killing of george lloyd by Police Protests have spread far beyond minnesota all across the country clashes are taking place across american streets. Like. Thank you. I thank i minnesotas Governor Tim Walz has declared a state of emergency i am answering our local leaders request for minnesota National Guard assistance to protect peaceful demonstrators neighbors and Small Businesses in minnesota. President trump has promised to seize control of minneapolis and says that there will be shooting if there is more looting the tweet was flagged and suppressed because twitter said it was more of find violence these thugs are dishonoring the memory of george floyd and i wont let that happen just to give new to mills and told him that the militarys with. Any difficulty and will assume control box when the looting stones the shooting starts thank you the u. S. Attorney general has been deployed to investigate the actions of the officers who took lloyds life i feel very very badly its a very shocking sight bill and i were talking about it before its one of the reasons bills here right. Because as you know were very much involved and ive asked attorney general f. B. I. And the attorney general to take a very strong look and to see what went on liberal leaning American Media as declared the killing of george floyd and the protests that erupted in its aftermath it into a long after no Police Brutality racism and the government ignoring the concerns of africanamericans we do begin with breaking news we want to welcome our viewers in the United States and all around the world fires are still burning on the southside of minneapolis after protesters took to the streets to demand justice for george cloyd how do you raise your children in this America Today im not sure there is an answer necessarily although. You point to angela davis who says its not enough to be non racist you have to be anti racist however the same media seemed far less sympathetic in 2015 after baltimore lit up in response to the Police Killing a thready great. Guy. In 2015 concerns of the Africanamerican Community to be the last thing the American Media was concerned about while artsy was covering the protests c. N. N. Was covering a fancy dinner at the white house the streets of baltimore are filled with protesters everyones wining and dining and this is happening 5060 miles away so you cant ignore that now. You cant ignore that. And yet that its important i do want to get to the red carpet da when u. S. Media finally got around covering the protests that were trade simply violent crowds clashing with the police showing the protesters to be more less violent hoodlums a handful of protesters handful of criminals and thugs who who tore up the place isnt it the right word so calling them thugs just call them they just call them at least 15 Police Officers have been heard 200 arrests 144 vehicle fires that these are statistics the local place or put out 15 structure fires theres no excuse for that kind of violence right so what changed why is u. S. Media suddenly concerned about africanamericans is it perhaps that u. S. President donald trump is widely used to being racist those protests back in 2015 in baltimore did not fit the liberal narrative that iraq obama was leading us toward the post racial era i think if you look historically at the Mainstream Media and other things that have had. Happened they havent reacted this way and it makes you wonder just why are they giving this so much coverage in the way that they are its the angle of the coverage and i think like many i believe that it may have a lot to do with elections and the political narrative right now and thats incredibly wrong turning this into something where were allowing people especially these extreme leftists to come in and start fires i think were actually feeding into a much darker narrative its not about this mans death and thats unfortunate its a battle actions while many are deeply concerned about killing of an innocent man it seems that powerful forces are not afraid to push their own political agenda it will mop and artsy new york protesters have also targeted to news channel cnns headquarters in atlanta a big crowd gathered outside the building to condemn the channels coverage of the Current Events there was a high Police Presence in the area early in the day former new orleans mayor marc morial long c. N. N. Blamed foreign actors for the riots. We need to understand and we need to know because what they suggested i saw all because of a report we did our state of black america report with the russians did. If youre leading social media. Donald trump took to twitter to comment on those accusations saying that the Fake News Media the media were up to their old tricks again george sunny when they found the Global Policy institute of london says it was inevitable russia would become a scapegoat. When it was entirely to be expected i was wondering how long it would say for the Mainstream Media to find a russian angle the people who are presenting this whole russia is to blame that event and they still havent got over 2016 is still replay of the same. Trumped russia collusion story for which theres been no evidence whatsoever in and on the country all the evidence is pointed against it traditionally when there are these riots Public Opinion swing still wards the law and order candid it and therefore there is a fear among the c. N. N. And s n b c called dissented that this will read down to the political advantage of donald trump and i think there is an attempt to earth would want to this suggest no no no i mean this isnt violence thats being perpetrated on the streets by black matter or by anti for no no no this is this is about all about russia and we know who russia is really supporting donald trump so therefore its russia putin and donald trump together not to blame for the violence not black lives matter or energy for. Just a recap whats going on right now multiple cities in different u. S. States a thing violent protests over the death of george floyd in place custody over the last few days buildings have been set on fire and businesses looted with protestors denouncing racism and Police Brutality and with clashes with law enforcement. Thank you. I. Was i was lucky that you got the call of. Your board with my you know on the ground all those other officers watching. Donald trump on twitter have locked horns on friday as tweets by the president about the riots in minnesota was hit and by the social platform and the tweets trump slammed the rioters in minneapolis saying the military support was the governor he also warns that if there was loosing it there would be shooting twitters theys the post violates the its rules about glorifying violets dont court picks up the story. Donald trump and twitter are clashing swords it all started with the president s tweet about mail in voting his claim that they could lead to fraud was slapped with a fact check labeled by the social media giant and now trumps dishing out some executive punishment what they used to fact check and what they choose to ignore or even promote is nothing more than a political Activism Group or political activism and its an appropriate the executive orders targeted at major social media platforms and aims to trim down Legal Protections that have long let these companies censor content without liability however trumps liberal opposition seems to think the president is giving this debacle way too much attention trump is out there to do the good this morning conference of the treaty we dont yet know how exactly trumps order will make any legal difference but hes clearly sending a message that these social media corporations do not have a monopoly on truth strangely enough an unlikely ally has come forward to support trump a leader from the very industry that hes at odds with but i dont think facebook or forms in general should be arbiters of truth i think thats kind of a dangerous line to get down to in terms of deciding what is what is true and what isnt. And i think political speech is one of the most sensitive parts in a democracy and people should go to see what politicians say at the same Time Facebook announced its now verifying the identities of important people in its war on distant from ation what a coincidence a number of democrats have already called zuckerberg out for what they saw as pandering to trump as far as it platforms are concerned they want 2 things from the federal government no regulation and no taxes and so they cater to the trumpet ministration all the time i think that my telco barracks statement was a disgrace suck about this not worried about being bullied by trump he. More into facebooks p. R. Operation is falling apart as its exposed that platform relies on White Supremacists and dissent from a should populace to be successful they are ignoring that protecting them the liberals are fighting a 2 front war though both against trump and twitter one of their latest weapons against the platform is a Watchdog Group called accountable tech it was founded by a former aide to the Obama Administration and another influential liberal activist they say the organization exists to combat what it considers misinformation and counting able to push for social media platforms to take immediate meaningful and achievable actions to better serve the public and leave up to their founding ideals at least republicans and democrats can agree on mistrusting social media criticisms of platform bias have come from both Political Parties these people are all democrats its totally biased toward democrats if i announce tomorrow that im going to become a nice liberal democrat
