Protesters angered by the death of George Floyd, a handcuffed black man who died while in police custody, gained access to a Minneapolis police precinct on Thursday, the third straight night of violent protests spreading beyond the city.
Livestream video showed the protesters entering the building, where fire alarms blared and sprinklers ran as blazes were set.
Dozens of businesses across the Twin Cities were boarding up their windows and doors Thursday in an effort to prevent looting, with the Minneapolis-based Target announcing it was temporarily closing two dozen area stores. Minneapolis shut down nearly its entire light-rail system and all bus service through Sunday out of safety concerns.

There are always exceptions to every broad-based statement. :-) For those of you can; consider relocation.

Thanks for the clarification.
My comment was based solely on what I could see in the video. All I could see was they appeared to not be black.

No problem. While the abusive cop was white, the other officers failed in their duty to remove him from Mr. Floyd which makes them culpable as well-at least to me.
To: Helicondelta
These are the types of people, at least in my state of Texas, who always complain that they live in food deserts, areas where large grocery chains wont open stores.
Well, THIS is why. Youve earned it, thugs.

Again!
I’ve lived through too many of these.
In 1968, I hosted two Fresh Air Fund kids from Harlem for the summer.
I was so glad to do a little bit. These kids were safe in the country in PA. for awhile.

Yes, God Help Us. In twenty years, the millennials will be running this country.
Fortunately, I will be pushing up daisies by then.

Protesters?
NOT.
They were effing arsonists who should do 20 to life for their crimes.

Minneapolis hasnt had a Republican mayor or council president since 1973. Im enjoying this.>>>>>>>>>
I am enjoying watching the putrid mess that the Dems have made of this.
The police were obviously ordered to withdraw from the 3rd precinct.
If it had been in Texas there would have been a fusillade of fire into every “protestor” arsonist who entered the locked down precinct.

Why not?
They whole MINNESOTA Dem machine has anarchist clubs and organized looters at their beck and call. Vote blue or we show up at your doorstep!
Nothing like thugs to bring about liberal fascist election results.
We’ll see if the People of Minnesota continue to be cowed by the radical Dem machine that gave us the gift of Ilhan Omar.

It appears that some of the protesters, rioters, uprisers and whatever else have gotten their '...apolis'es mixed up. Now some fools were in the streets in INDIANapolis last night; too!
Is NOTHING sacred anymore??

Agree 100%. No federal bailout, no federal troops. Let these woke mayors fix their own problems.
