MUST SEE: Minneapolis Descends into Chaos after Death of George Floyd
Our thoughts and prayers are with our fellow Americans in Minneapolis today.
In Minnesota this week, there is mourning and mayhem.
The death of George Floyd while in police custody has sparked outrage around the nation, as a video surfaced showing a police officer kneeling on the neck of the already restrained Floyd as he pleaded for relief, unable to breath. The officer’s casual stance, with his hands in his pockets at times, has infuriated the masses who can see no reason for such an escalation of force on a man who was already laying prone.
While the officers in question have been removed from the force, Americans by and large feel that charges should also be pressed. In response to the lack of legal action, Minneapolis has erupted.
