NBC is prohibiting reporters from using the word “riot” in its coverage of violent outbursts in Minnesota that have occurred in response to the killing of George Floyd.
“While the situation on the ground in Minneapolis is fluid, and there has been violence, it is most accurate at this time to describe what is happening there as ‘protests’–not riots,” NBC host Craig Melvin wrote on Twitter Thursday.

IF YOU DON’T VOTE DEMOKKKRATS YOU AIN’T BLACK!! This statement also lite the fuse to the riots!! Stupid senile ass!!!
Calling it “riots” shows disorder and paints Demorat politicians in a bad light. They can’t do that now in an election year when they want bad touch Biden and their real Presidential Candidate to win, not to mention supermajorities in the House and Senate.
You mean the SOUL BROTHER signs don’t work any more?
“”””I remember when Minnesota used to be, Minnesota..like it was depicted on Little House On The Prairie, what happened..they let all the Somali’s in”””””
Minnesota is separate from Minneapolistan. I’m just a few miles away but never go into the schiffhole unless very necessary.
What’s everyone complaining about?

And what about my all-time favorite: ‘Kerfuffle’?
What I’ve seen, locals were protesting intelligently, then bussed people arrived and the rioting commenced. Antifa? Soros?
Was the whole thing a false red flag (predicated on Floyd “attempting to pass a forged $20???)?
It’s more like a campfire marshmallow roast sort of protest. Next will be reports of scary story telling around the burning places of business
Someone did something............
“That matter in Minneapolis”
Thanks for the History lesson...
I’ll try at my old age to remember that...
The people are having a reparations party.
Looks like Looter Man has been updated.
