Dirty Cop Who Pressed George Floyd's Neck: Does He Have A MAGA History?

The look when you know you've fucked up.
I don't want to speculate the political leaning of this cop who put his knee on the neck of George Floyd. The man left his hometown of Houston, Texas to move to the Minneapolis-St. Paul metro area with his girlfriend Courteney Ross. The two were looking forward to getting married. Now she and his family are preparing for the burial.

He was devoted security officer at a local bistro where his girlfriend worked. The junk food media didn't even mention that in their stories. All I heard was "counterfeit money" and "forgery."

The Minneapolis Police were caught on camera restraining him with force. The cop who put his knee on the neck along with three other cops were identified by the junk food media. They were fired out the cannon.

On May 25, Memorial Day, Minneapolis Police Department officers responded to a "forgery in progress" on Chicago Avenue South in the Powderhorn Park neighborhood of Minneapolis. According to WCCO, the implication was that Floyd "tried to used forged documents at a nearby deli". According to police, Floyd was in a nearby car and "appeared to be under the influence". A spokesman for the police department stated that the officers ordered him to exit the vehicle, at which point he "physically resisted".

While initially police claimed that Floyd had resisted arrest, surveillance video from a nearby store "shows officers calmly detaining him", according to CBS News.
The look on this cop's face shows that he's getting in trouble for this one.
According to the Minneapolis police, officers "were able to get the suspect into handcuffs and noted he appeared to be suffering medical distress. Officers called for an ambulance". According to the Minneapolis Fire Department, paramedics moved Floyd from the location and were doing chest compressions and other lifesaving measures on an "unresponsive, pulseless male". Floyd was taken to Hennepin County Medical Center, where he was pronounced dead.

No weapons were used in the incident.




Donald J. Trump is now aware of the controversy. He ordered the U.S. Justice Department and FBI to do an investigation. The Minnesota State Bureau of Criminal Apprehension will conduct an independent investigation into whether the cop violated policies. The NAACP and Floyd's family said they want these cops to be criminal indicted for murder.

Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey has condemned the cops and said that the actions continue show the African American community can't trust their local law enforcement.

"What I can say with certainty, based on what I saw, is that ... the officer who had his knee on the neck of George Floyd should be charged," Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey said in a news conference Wednesday.

There is unrest in Minneapolis and St. Paul.

Gov. Tim Walz hasn't declared a state of emergency yet. He is aware of the tensions between the communities and the police.

Some on social media also took aim at how the cops treated Black Lives Matter protesters to the Open Up America protesters. More on that in this post and future postings.





LeBron James, Ice Cube and Black fascist Candace Owens had a say in the matter.




The Minneapolis Star Tribune has gotten the names of the cops. The two cops who were in the video has a history. Some of that may come into question whether they have used excessive force and practiced in racial profiling and targeting.

Derek Chauvin has been identified as the officer pinning down Floyd in the now-viral video, which shows Floyd saying he can’t breathe repeatedly before losing consciousness. Floyd later died. Four officers on scene have been fired. They have not yet been officially identified by department officials.

Chauvin, 44, is a 19-year department veteran. Department records and news accounts show that he has been involved in several police-involved shootings over his career.
George was described as a gentle giant. He is pictured with his girlfriend.
In 2008, Chauvin shot and wounded Ira Latrell Toles during a domestic assault call. According to a 2011 article from the Pioneer Press, Chauvin and other officers showed up to an apartment in south Minneapolis just before 2 a.m. Toles grabbed for an officer’s gun and Chauvin shot him in the abdomen.

In 2006, Chauvin and five others responded to a stabbing. After Wayne Reyes, 42, allegedly pulled a shotgun on the officers, one of the officers shot and killed Reyes, according to a report titled “Stolen Lives” from Communities United Against Police Brutality, a police watchdog nonprofit based in Minneapolis.

The other officer identified in the video is Tou Thao. According to a deposition he gave in a 2017 lawsuit, Thao started with the department as a community service officer. He went through the academy in 2009. He was laid off for two years and returned to the department in 2012.

In 2017, Lamar Ferguson sued Thao and another officer, Robert Thunder, for excessive use of force. According to the lawsuit, Ferguson and a woman who was eight months pregnant were walking home when Thao and Thunder stopped and searched them without cause. The officers handcuffed Ferguson, and Thao threw him to the ground and began punching him, while Thunder kicked him, according to the allegations.

The officers took Ferguson to the hospital for medical treatment. Afterward, they escorted Ferguson to jail wearing only his underwear and T-shirt, rejecting hospital staff’s requests that he be allowed to fully dress, according to the complaint.

In a deposition, Thao said they arrested Ferguson due to an outstanding arrest warrant. He said he only punched Ferguson after one of Ferguson's hands slipped out of the handcuffs.
George's family lives in Texas. They will be preparing to head to Minnesota to meet with mayor Jacob Frey and attorney Benjamin Crump.
"He tries to pull away," Thao said in the deposition. "And he puts his hands on me and tries to give me a stiff arm in a way to try to get me off of him. After — at this point he's actively resisting arrest. He — so I had no choice but to punch him. I punched him in the face. It causes him to pause a bit which gives Officer Thunder the time to come around and help."

The case settled out of court for $25,000, according to Seth Leventhal, one of Ferguson's attorneys.

Thomas Lane and J. Alexander Kueng who weren't shown on the first video but seen in later videos were fired out the cannon as well.

Most of the ex-cops scrubbed their social media.

Some on social media are spreading a photo of a white man wearing a "Make Whites Great Again" hat with the claims of it being Chauvin. That's false.
Protests in the Twin Cities. Folks have called out the police for hypocrisy. Some of the Black Lives Matter protesters were pelted with rubber bullets and mace. Weeks ago, armed white extremists stormed the Minnesota State Capitol and the police didn't react violently towards them.
Another photo shows a police officer appearing onstage with Trump. They claimed it was Chauvin.

That is false as well.

Hundreds of people gathered Wednesday for a second day near a police precinct, calling for justice over Floyd's death.

Minneapolis Police Chief Medaria Arradondo urged people to be respectful while protesting and condemned any type of destructive behavior. Most people, he said, have been peacefully protesting but there have been a few incidents.

An attorney representing Floyd's family, Benjamin Crump, said in a statement Wednesday that he and Floyd's relatives are calling for peaceful protests and social distancing amid the coronavirus pandemic.

They don't have fathers or mothers in their lives and it results in them committing criminal acts.

Look at his history with police....

Blah, blah, blah....

Moments of silence, street memorials, naming of public places, saying "Your heart goes out to...," lowering of flags and hashtags are platitudes. They are a huge waste of time. It's a man-made crisis created by a lazy ass government.

Don't you just want to scream!?
That image is shows a man begging for his life.
Scream in the faces of these damn lawmakers whenever they offer their "thoughts and prayers" to every fucking mass shooting in the United States. They will offer their condolences and say a word vomit how they sympathize with the deceased. Some here will tell us that "now isn't the time to talk."

We will talk about this for a few days and then we're off to another controversy. The next controversy would either be something done by Trump, a politician, an entertainer or we will experience another mass shooting. The next mass shooting will be even worse than the last one.

I repeat myself over and over again! I use the same old copy and paste. I hear the same trolls saying that there's nothing we can do. I keep hearing "concern" trolls telling us that it's their own fault for their own deaths.

FOR EVERY BAD COP, THERE WILL BE A DEAD COP!

I DON'T BELIEVE EVERYTHING ON THE INTERNET OR THE COP'S VERSION.

GUN VIOLENCE IS THE NUMBER ONE THREAT IN THE UNITED STATES.

THERE IS NO GOD!

GOD IS NOT FIXING THIS!

We haven't forgotten about the many mass shootings in the United States. COVID-19 doesn't stop individuals from picking up firearms and killing others.

If a grand jury decides to prosecute the cop involved in the death of George Floyd, he will be criminally charged with involuntary manslaughter and it carries at least 20 years in the iron college.

The suspect is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

The Minneapolis Police killed an unarmed man over a petty offense. Now he's dead and there's call for justice against these cops. Does George Floyd's life mattered?

Yes
No
Other
Please Specify:

You are warned, do not use the services of (Jeffery) Shaun King. Please avoid this individual. He doesn't represent Black Lives Matter in anyway.
