Of course those are very rare in numbers and definitely in volume. I wonder how many of his type are in the crowd? How many people in the crowd would have been doing other things if the country was business as usual?

On a different note from all the stories coming out, including Chauvin having to be often told by his boss at his side job stop getting hardcore with customers, it is pretty obvious the jack ass had been a ticking time bomb for a long, long time.

He supposedly had a well stocked complaint file with the PD. I believe everyone of those needs to be reviewed and all those involved that never meted out any discipline to Chauvin be held accountable. The dude should have been fired ages ago. Maybe if a direct supervisor of a rogue cop often gets fired for not having better over sight, more of the bad apples will get weeded out, before they do something horrendous.
To your point i think this speech by killer mike is very good.

I do agree i am not sure what the protesting does, i guess lets govt show you are angry and gives you an opportunity to vent but i am not sure it effectively changes anything.
