Hennepin County Attorney Mike Freeman on Friday announced murder and manslaughter charges that allege a former Minneapolis police officer killed George Floyd — an act caught on video and seen around the world that sparked days of violent and destructive demonstrations across the Twin Cities.

Derek Chauvin, 44, was arrested late Friday morning and charged with third-degree murder and second-degree manslaughter four days after he pinned his knee on Floyd's neck for nearly nine minutes Monday at the intersection of E. 38th Street and Chicago Avenue as the unarmed and handcuffed man told him he couldn't breathe. Chauvin is being held in the Ramsey County jail. Authorities have not explained why he was booked in a jail located other than in the county where he was charged.

Probably has nothing to do with the fact she has lived with a power hungry Jack Boot long enough?

Avoiding an old-fashioned lynching is a pretty good reason, isn't it?

Just looking at that list, everyone of those is a Democrat run city, it appears.

What a coinky-dink...

I say again, there will be an attempt on the president's life in the next few days.

Pray for Trump, pray for the USSS, pray HARD!

Did his mug shot end up “saying” anything?

“It take a worried man to sing a worried song.”

“I’m worried more today than yesterday, but not as much as tomorrow.”

One of the best scenes from my favorite movie of all time!

But I don’t know who in the scene you are comparing the arrested cop to.

Perhaps the English Lord who is soon to be beheaded by Wallace?

Perhaps the Scots as the faced the incoming rain of arrows? But probably not, because right after that, they mooned and sunned the English, then killed them all in such a satisfying way.

Great, now I’m going to have to go watch the whole movie again, because it’s been at least a year.

“the English Lord who is soon to be beheaded by Wallace”
Or anyone on the English side for that matter.

The Democrats are bound and determined to the destroy the United States of America. By any means necessary. The useful idiots need only the prodding of the liberal media, liberal Hollywood and Democrat politicians. The useful idiots are nothing but fools and cannon fodder to them. And stupid enough to be useful idiots, too.
