Cops Are The Worst

Yeah, I'm logging off for tonight after this one:

Bingo!

Regardless of whether it was intentional or not, it's a fucking miracle no one was killed, as is being reported. That video is terrifying.

Absolutely. I can’t believe everyone got out of the way. Incredible miracle.

As a Minnesotan and Minneapolis lover .... Mac doesn’t speak for all of us. Perhaps only a vocal minority.

However, as far as this truck driver is concerned ... at this point they’re not saying it was intentional. There are a shit ton of intersections freeways near this area and if they didn’t get the roads closed properly I would totally understand this happening.

Protestors should be allowed to march wherever the fuck they want.

I’m waiting to get more information on this driver before I become enraged.

Nobody was really hurt and at the time the truck got to the protestors they were mostly already split on both sides of the highway.

Some video caught by my friends in the area is totally frightening though. The aerial video shows that the driver did appear to be trying to slow down and stop as soon as he came upon the crowd

Thank you for not rushing to judgment.

An astute observer might be forgiven for thinking that assuming he was an innocent man who would have been nearly beaten to death by those protestors is also a case of "rushing to judgment."

I’m not assuming his innocence. If you recall, my initial rush to judgment was that he was at fault. Now more evidence has come out that has me leaning toward maybe not. We’ll see.

The local news just aired a phone interview with a guy who was on the bridge filming while footage of the truck’s windshield getting kicked in and the driver being violently pulled out of the truck played. He said the driver was getting kicked in the head and screaming bloody murder. He was part of a group that helped stop the attack and hold the driver for the police. He was worried they were going to throw the driver off the bridge, and stated it was clear he was in danger of losing his life.

I’m proud of the thousands of people that have been protesting peacefully today. I’m hopeful that the violence is coming to an end. I support the peaceful protesters, including those breaking curfew in a peaceful way. I’m also thankful for the thousands of people that gathered and gave so much to feed and provide necessities to the people whose neighborhoods have been destroyed. This is the side of Minnesota and humanity I am very proud of, and we should all be glorifying and lifting up the good that comes out in times of great crisis. These are the true leaders and community healers. They come from all backgrounds, colors, and creeds. I’m very hopeful that the Twin Cities will be safe tonight, and in the coming days. I’m hopeful that meaningful change can happen and serious problems can be addressed and corrected. And I sincerely hope we can all recover from all of this.

J, those are thoughtful, appropriate words. I’m not trying to pick a fight with you: why do you support Trump? If you’ve elaborated on this in another post, say the word and I’ll search.

Thank you, I appreciate that.

I have elaborated extensively about my political beliefs previously in this thread during the last few days. And honestly, I’m tired of having that conversation right now. But the gist of it is here if you look.

Right now, I’m just thankful for peace in our neighborhoods. The last few days have been incredibly difficult. I’m thankful the Twin Cities can breathe tonight.

Why do Cops get up so early for work?


To beat the crowds.
