Wheelchair-bound woman is beaten and sprayed with a fire extinguisher by looters who accuse her of wielding a knife 'while trying to stop them ransacking Target' in George Floyd riots in Minneapolis

A woman in a wheelchair was punched in the head and sprayed with a fire extinguisher after trying to block protesters - allegedly with a knife in her hand - during the George Floyd riots in Minneapolis last night. The woman claimed she was 'peacefully protesting' to stop people from looting a Target store, but she was quickly set upon by a crowd who subdued her in angry scenes on the second night of violence in the city. The crowd outside the Target store shouted that the woman had a knife, and footage showed her holding what appeared to be a sharp object. Named online as Jennifer, she later said she had been 'punched in the head several times' before others tried to restrain her.

These riots are being encouraged, and promoted, by leftist agitators so as to create another crisis for Trump during this election campaign season.

Part of the plan is for the “looters” to attack Whites because there will be absolutely NO prosecution of the “looters.”

I find it quite interesting that there can be TWO of the exact same articles posted side by side and FR allows it no issue. But, when I post something that has been posted same day they take mine down. What did I ever do wrong to lose my “free voice” on this site?

He’s stealing crap liquor. I’d have at least thought to go for top shelf stuff. You know, El Mayor tequila, and maybe Marker’s Mark bourbon, Gun Powder gin instead of the middle shelf consumables.

I guess the lady was attempting to do her civic duty since the police were not stopping anybody.

The blacks are now demanding their pound of flesh. They are always looking for a reason to riot and loot.

The Minneapolis police department brought this on themselves. The police chief needs to hold a national press conference RIGHT NOW assuring the black community that the dirty vicious cops that killed George Floyd will be held accountable and punished.

It has gotten to the point where nothing less than the death penalty for Derek Chauvin will suffice else the city is going to be burned to the ground.

Notice that none of the protesters care about getting infected with COV19? What happened to the state order for social distancing and wearing a mask in public? I guess you are exempt if you are part of a riot group.

Another example of the ghetto mentality of the black culture. Looting & violence at the drop of a hat...for any reason. It’s absolutely disgusting!!!

Totally agree, this is unacceptable as a response. The cop will be arrested soon and the animals should return to their Dem cage.

Watching the biased network news this morning, my first reaction was how long until this somehow becomes Trump’s fault and/or Trump is slandered as racist because of his response (no matter what that response is, even no response).

I wouldn’t be surprised if this happens by noon today.

The video I saw of this, did not look like this woman was wielding a knife. Heck, she’s sitting in a wheelchair, and appears to be semi blocking the back (or side) exit that these thugs are trying to escape through, with their stolen loot.

This lady’s in their way, so one thug stops...and instead of rolling the lady out of the way....the female thug proceeds to strangle and choke the disabled lady. Others begin spraying fire extinguishers at her.

The extinguisher smoke finally settles and you see the disabled lady sitting in her chair, completely covered in chemical.

If it’s okay to riot and loot, it’s okay to get out and vote at the polls.

They didn’t Mail In loot/riot.

The looters and race baiters are helping these vile police out. They are taking the spotlight off that which we should be focused on. Agents of the state, killed a man, in broad daylight, in front of citizens while cameras were rolling.

The looters and race baiters are all twits of narrow minds.

We NOW see the extent to whichi Minneapolis is stuck by the Dem liberal fascist ideology, stuck in plantation mentality instead of becoming American citizens who pull themsleves up to pursue happpiness, Instead of pursuing happiness they are still pursuing non existent slave overlords who are figments of Democrat invoked historical illusion.

Now that the 4 Minneapolic Police have committed what appears to be a crime of murder, all of these putative Dem involked “modern day “slaves” revolt. What they should be doing in lawyering up the victimes survivors so they can punish the City of Minneapolis with damages ion the millions. But no, the revolting “slaves” punish innocent business owners by looting, beating up wheel chair bound woman, and next raping?

What a laugh. These looters could be shot by business owners, just as one pawn shop owner did,, regardless of what civil complaint these “slaves” have against the Minneapolis Police.

But I also believe firmly that there are 4 police officers that should be under arrest at this point. (Chances are that all 4 now are resident outside the USA.)

the majority who are good, professional cops.

Who don't seem to do anything about the bad cops around them.

Sounds like what many say about Muslims - that even the "good" ones are bad since they don't report on or clean up the bad ones.
