The Memphis Police Chief, obviously an AA hire, tried and convicted the officers before they had their days in court. If the officers did eff up they absolutely must be held accountable but do it the right way.
This type of cheap pandering nothing new. Literally minutes after the first reports of the Tawana Brawley fiasco Fredo's father il Sfaccim Cuomo said "Tawana Brawley is my daughter". Funny,I don't recall him calling the Central Park jogger his daughter. Or Yankel Rosenbaum his son, but I digress.
While it's too early to tell in this case, alcohol and/or drugs are involved in most of these incidents. George Floyd, Jake Blake,Breonna Taylor and most other similar cases, one main takeaway should've been the consequences of substance abuse.

The police chief is an administrator who does indeed get to make decisions about hiring, firing, and referrals for prosecution.
Call it what you will it’s a far sight better than what we used to see with cops killing innocent people and getting away with it scot free.

No white people involved = No riots.

I suspect there will still be riots even though the officers are not white. Ben Crump is on the news practically promising there will be riots. To release the video at 6:00 p.m. on a Friday evening guarantees there will be at least a few riots.
I heard a report this afternoon that many urban schools were canceling this evening’s sporting events and people were buying groceries in preparation for staying home all weekend, much like they do when a snowstorm is expected.

There’s a RUMOR on Twitter that Tyre was having an affair with the wife of one of the cops involved.
If that’s true, it won’t make any difference. For 5 cops to beat an unarmed man to death is madness. If that’s what happened- can’t know until the video is released.

Unless L.A. as in Los Angeles riots......everything else is just amateur hour rioting. L.A. is the standard. If L.A. burns....we have something. Nobody does it better then L.A.
