Minnesota.

Police brutality is an international problem.

The United States Congress should unequivocally stand against violent suppression and pass my resolution that does just that. https://t.co/zIsAW1Ax02

The fully militarized police loaded into the back of a pickup truck, swarmed him in SWAT gear, and shot him in the back of the head as he drove away. For a DRUG ARREST.

This is unacceptable. The police pulled up ready to kill him and that’s exactly what they did. https://t.co/tGGcPLHRKB

A nightmare. An absolute nightmare. 7 officers. Grand jury refuses to indict any. That’s how it usually happens. Charging & conviction (as in the case of the ofcr who killed George Floyd) is rare indeed. https://t.co/AUXjhGoncE

Can the ofcrs be sued civilly for damages? Sure.Then they’ll raise the defense of qualified immunity. That’s why the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act would end qualified immunity for law enforcement ofcrs, which would give families the chance to hold these ofcrs accountable.

Let’s say these ofcrs are fired now that this video has been released. Should they be permitted to join the force of another law enforcement agency in another town? No. That’s why the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act would create a national police misconduct database.

We must break the regime of impunity that protects law enforcement ofcrs from consequences. Learn more about the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act https://t.co/k4sN6Gloif And call your Senator and demand its passage: 202-224-3121.
