There is something very strange about some of the images I've seen on twitter.
TV boxes stacked up high being moved around on a dolly by looters looked and moved like empty boxes.
The incident where the chap was killed by the officer leaning on his neck has some anomalies:- The cruiser has the VRM: POLICE and the price of Diesel shown in the background is at 99c when the cheapest diesel at the pumps in the state is ~ $2.74.
False flag event?

Video shows a suspicious white man breaking windows at the Minneapolis Auto Zone and then walking away from the scene. This looks like an effort to instigate trouble in order to blame the protesters for the consequences.

Original claims was it was a policeman but the police says they've investigated and it wasn't.

“We have been backing up” camera pans round to them being the only ones in the area
Minnesota governor apologizes for arrest of CNN team“We have been backing up” camera pans round to them being the only ones in the area
CNN president Jeff Zucker spoke with the governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz on Friday morning, following the arrest of CNN's team in Minneapolis,
Walz said he "deeply apologizes" for what happened and is working to have the CNN team released immediately.
Walz described the arrests as "unacceptable," said CNN's team clearly has the right to be there, and said he wants the media to be in Minnesota to cover the protests.

If that isn't a recipe for civil war, I am not quite sure what is. Somebody needs to get a grip, right now. And I mean right now or this could get very bad, very quickly.
Is this the start of the race war that the white supremacists want? They've become emboldened by Trump, and now see an opportunity?jsc15 said:
Anytime I've seen press reporting from an active riot zone, they normally have hardhats with PRESS on them in dayglo letters. It seems a bit risky to be going to these dressed casually in shorts & t-shirt with little else to distinguish them from Joe Looter
Other than microphones and a f
k off TV camera?

Apparantly the Policemans wife has confirmed it is indeed him smashing the windows.
This smacks of total Trolling from someone.Can you imagine even if that was her husband... shall I give him a death wish, yeah guess so he didn’t take the bins out last night.
Maybe it was a sensible proactive approach from the authorities. Smash the windows so civilians don’t hurt themselves doing it? (Joke btw)
The whole thing is another American disaster 
I see all these satellite stories feeling the flames further.
Social media only needs to host one video of a police/white/black person doing something deplorable and it can add another day and many more injuries / arrests / and possible 2nd amendment fatalities.
How much time do enemies of the US spend stirring the pot on social media? It’s so easy to do after all!
All the stories seem real, then get debunked, then proven real again in a repetitive cyclical confused manner.
Now the great Orange one is making it worse too!

If someone is obstructing an officer, then arrest them for it. Why wait until they have stopped doing what you want to arrest them for?

So you obviously think that something has happened before the start of the video, which is absolutely a possibility, but what makes you think that?

Only reason I think that is it’s perfectly feasible that’s the case. Call me an old cynic but it’d be great for ratings wouldn’t it?

It’s a good idea to think of other possibilities rather than just the black n white you’ve been shown IMO.
Maybe they were doing exactly as instructed and it was a travesty but maybe they weren’t. Just seems odd to me as I’d imagine the police had more important things to consider quite frankly, like keeping the riot line that seemingly the press (oh and only that CNN lot?) were breaking up?

Whilst I don't advocate destroying peoples businesses, I can see how it has come to this point and sadly I don't have much issue with it. The country is a mess.
Cretin.ETA, didn't mean to come across as arsey
meant more that the burning property businesses is/can be a horriby unfortunate side effect of rioting. Again, lack of coffee whilst typing. Edited by Rod200SX on Friday 29th May 13:10

Crew has now been released and the state Governor has apologised stating the arrests were unnaceptable
Great ‘news’ for them, they can get back to the riot line now carefully obeying the orders. Let’s just hope they don’t get wrongfully arrested again for doing as they’re told and keeping a distance. Shocking.uncleluck said:

Weird, in this video of the alleged cop smashing the auto shop: https://www.liveleak.com/view?t=98PNX_1590738183
There's the same pink shirted person in this clip too: https://twitter.com/i/status/1266294275454627840
Hmm, am I going mad?

It’s terrible indeed.
White or black no one should die or be subject to police brutality, etc.
So people feel wronged and should protest. Criminals taking advantage of this and looting and destroying property just because is not on, unacceptable. So those are breaking the law. They loose any respect they could have imo.
The U.S. does seems a difficult place for minorities but let’s not forget they got a black president so not all is white supremacist!
Terrible anyway. This needs to stop but also the looting!

Why would you be going mad? A chap trying to stop people smashing things up & looting appears in two videos of people smashing things up in the same area?There's the same pink shirted person in this clip too: https://twitter.com/i/status/1266294275454627840
