This is the 2000s now. We know there are good black people. And in the protests I saw white people join the cause too. He is referring to thugs who dishonor George's memory. It is as if the pressure of 2 months of lockdown was suddenly released. Whats going on is not a built up of 400 years of racial discrimination.IP: Logged |

Amy Klobuchar didn't prosecute officer at center of George Floyd's death after previous conduct complaints
Kathryn Krawczyk
May 28, 2020George Floyd's death in police custody is renewing criticism of Sen. Amy Klobuchar's (D-Minn.) prosecutorial record. Before she became a senator and a top contender for former Vice President Joe Biden's vice presidential spot, Klobuchar spent eight years as the Hennepin County attorney, in charge of prosecution for Minneapolis. And while in that position, Klobuchar declined to prosecute multiple police officers cited for excessive force, and did not prosecute the officer who kneeled on Floyd's neck as he protested, The Guardian reports. Ex-Minneapolis police officer Derick Chauvin saw at least 10 conduct complaints during his 19-year tenure before he was fired Tuesday, according to a database that documents complaints against police. In particular, he was involved in the shooting death of a man who had stabbed other people before attacking police, as well as some other undisclosed complaints. Klobuchar did not prosecute Chauvin and other officers involved for the first death, which occurred in October 2006 while she was running for Senate. The case was under investigation when Klobuchar took office in the Senate in Jan. 2007, and later went to a grand jury, which declined to charge the officers. Chauvin was later placed on leave when he and other officers shot and wounded a Native American man in 2011. As The Washington Post noted in March, Klobuchar "declined to bring charges in more than two dozen cases in which people were killed in encounters with police" as Hennepin County attorney. Instead, she "aggressively prosecuted smaller offenses" that "have been criticized for their disproportionate effect on poor and minority communities," the Post continues. And as Klobuchar undergoes vetting to become a possible vice presidential candidate, that track record is being scrutinized and criticized once again. Kathryn Krawczyk

I thought you said you fact checks twitter?
How did you fact check that the smashing window vandal was an undercover cop? Did he reveal his face and credentials at the end of the smashing? Please reveal your sources for fact checking this tweet. Thanks! ETA: I suspect you are not going to produce any proofs but I can hope...

Apparently, the cop who killed him knew him. They knew each other and worked at the same nightclub. There is more to the story than meets the eye. I think that cop should be charged with murder. And I am waiting for the entire backstory to unravel. IP: Logged |

That happened after I posted, and it's a GOOD thing. It happens to everyone else on there, if they cross the line. Same thing that happens occasionally, when people *here* cross the line. Randall has banned people before. Trump should be subject to the same, but he hasn't been suspended on there, or completely deleted. His post remained, despite violating rules, because he happens to run a country (very badly). IP: Logged |

There was video of him, and I was looking for more, to see if it was correct. When these things go viral, they are corrected if they are wrong. There are things I haven't posted here about Rump, because I checked them out for myself. So, do you agree with trump threatening to shoot protesters, just weeks after he was asking governors to kindly meet with men who had guns, and were threatening her and others? IP: Logged |

People saw him murder a man on video, and he wasn't at all concerned. I don't need a back-story. IP: Logged |

It's weird that people are focusing on:a) Twitter stating that his tweet violates their rules and b) The possibility of a white man being falsely accused of something instead of the content of the post: Trump threatening to shoot American citizens, because he disagrees with them. IP: Logged |

Your assumption that a viral video who has not (yet) been corrected must be true tells me a lot about your fact checking. And to answer your question, no, I do not agree that Trump has threatened to shoot protesters. But I will agree that he has threatened to shoot looters. Unless for you, protesters and looters are the same.

the backstory may not matter to you, but it will be important in deciding if this murder was racially motivated or not. IP: Logged |

"It happens to everyone else on there, if they cross the line."Does calling for the murder of police officers cross the line...or not? Yet, going back years, that doesn't seem to have gotten anyone censored...or kicked off Twitter. Does obvious lying by democrat politicians on Twitter cross the line..or not. Yet, going back at least 3 years democrat politicians have been lying and are still telling the same debunked lies today. Haven't noticed any of them being censored or kicked off Twitter...or even 'fact checked'. How do you account for that? Btw, Twitter is in heap big trouble. They're about to lose their legal liability immunity, they're about to lose all their US government advertising revenues and they're about to face discrimination investigations and possible prosecutions from the FBI and DOJ.

Still waiting for you to provide us with proof that the masked man shown in that twitter video you posted smashing a store is an undercover cop who was identified by his ex. Unless he took off his mask and flashed his credentials after committing the deed, his ex must have had Xray eyes to identify him through his garb. Or maybe he was arrested shortly thereafter and his mug was plasted all over the internet. In any case, where's your proof as a self-proclaimed fact checker?

"Trump threatening to shoot American citizens, because he disagrees with them."Post a video of Trump threatening to shoot American citizens...or a direct Trump quote...with the words in quotation marks from a credible source. And I don't mean Twitter or Facebook are 'credible sources'.

I heard from the horses mouth, yes the Potus. He said the phrase ""When the looting starts, the shooting starts" was used by several people over the years. Its origin is not clear. He also had no knowledge of that phrase being used by the racist in Miami. I am sure he wouldn't have used this to sensationalize the George story. Also, he did not name a person. And every one knows he is part of the government and has authority to do what he says unlike the other members. The point is not that though.
Apparently, George was in drunk state and trying to commit a forgery by producing fake $20 bill. I am not sure how such people survived the 2 month lockdown. Those in heavens and thus the Elitist think people who don't have $1000 in savings set aside during such emergencies have no right to live on planet. I have no way to prove this -- but it makes sense to me on the idea of a lockdown by those in control.
Thank the potus to send money (prepaid debit). Some people has been throwing them in garbage not knowing its purpose.
That's why I liked uncensored twitter and ability to follow from the horses mouth. Potus was very clear of his intentions. It was twitter , perhaps , mostly liberal who decided to test their power. Good that Potus has passed the executive order. You tube has been shutting down alternative media sites that talks about 'one world order',etc. Wish, we had a really neutral youtube. I am ready to donate to such companies.
