    Personally, I don't have a ton of respect for any cop, I don't care what color or gender they are, the majority are power hungry wanna be`s with a badge and a gun. The majority dont know anything about what laws there supposed to be upholding, I am shocked that most dont even know how to conduct a routine stop without violating your civil rights.

    I hope these 5 get thrown in with the best and brightest of the Memphis penal system

    define publicly upset.

    then reconcile your definition with a typical Antifa protest.

    Thats a way to look at it. I would rather gather opinions from multiple perspectives. The firebombing and violent protests shouldn't be dismissed and the police brutality incident is also very newsworthy. There is no reason to multiply deaths during protest. That's not the best way to promote change.

    Schools are dismissed for the weekend is my best guess.

    I hated watching floyd so I don't want to see this either. Hopefully our nation stays peaceful like his mom has requested.

    Depends

    Peaceful and Injustice serves no one but the oppressive police state
    The reason people are not peaceful is because they don't EXPECT justice
    and
    Historically speaking . .. they aren't wrong

    There were a lot of people like this in Minneapolis. There were a lot of people who came from out of town to take advantage of the situation to loot or commit other crimes
