Thank you for that explination of things..and I agree that it is probably like that to some extent. In fact, yesterday there was a protest in the Walmart parking lot in Summerville,SC...I was very unaware it was going on as I waited patiently inside for my thyroid medication to be filled. I walked outside and saw SWAT vehicles and about flipped my lid. It was very unsettling to say the least and I didn't know if something was happening or where or if I should go to my car or go back inside. I saw some police officers looking rather bored under a tree and asked them...what is going on? one said, oh no worries its all good, there are some protesters here but nothing to worry about it is peaceful, we are just here in case.(yes I have pictuers)
I have to wonder how much that incites the crowds in and of itself? However, the police were staying back and were okay with the protests which led to it remaining all good and calm.
I wanted to share this with you, it will reinforce your opinion on what should happen in Minneapolis.
Minneapolis police rendered 44 people unconscious with neck restraints in five years
So, 44 times they have left people unconscious with this move.
