The officer who killed George Floyd worked with him for years at the same club out of all the clubs in Minnesota. And Floyd used to be employed as an actor. An actor in porn, but an actor none-the-less. What are the odds? The officer was reported to be a hot head by other employees. What does all of this mean? I don't know, but what I do know is that the main stream media has not told any of you about this. Also we continue to hear about how black lives matter and are under attack, but really authoritarianism knows no color. We have seen black officers abusing black suspects. Does this mean they are that insanely ridiculous term "self hating"? No, its their training, and their personalities.
The following video report is frpom Brian Young of High Impact Flix
The excerpt below is from AZ Central
EJ Montini: There were no demonstrations after a jury acquitted a former Mesa officer of murdering an unarmed man. Should there have been?
There were no public demonstrations after the verdict in which former Mesa police officer Philip “Mitch” Brailsford was acquitted of murder and reckless manslaughter in the killing of an unarmed man.
Is that because the victim, Daniel Shaver, was white?
Brailsford, also a white man, was answering a call of someone pointing a gun out of a motel window.
Mesa police have released footage from Officer Philip "Mitch" Brailsford's body camera of the fatal shooting of an unarmed Texas man at a hotel in 2016. This edited video shows the moments leading up Daniel Shaver's death. Mesa Police Department
Deputy County Attorney Susie Charbel didn't buy Brailsford's claim that he feared for his life. She told the jury, "(Brailsford) doesn’t get a pass because he was wearing a police uniform that night."
The jury sided with the officer.
They found Brailsford not guilty.
There has been a lot of interest in the case but nothing inflammatory.
In hindsight two things seem obvious:
Shaver should not be dead.
Brailsford should not have been in that hallway.
I have to question the suitability of an officer whose AR-15 rifle had etched on it the phrase “You’re F***ed.” And I question as well a department that permits him to do so.
The judge didn’t allow that information in the trial, finding it prejudicial.
If he was black, there'd be more noise
There were enough questions about the incident that Brailsford, who was fired by the department, should have been charged. Give Maricopa County Attorney Bill Montgomery credit for allowing a jury to decide.
If Shaver were a black man the verdict might have been exactly the same. But I'd guess there would have been a lot more noise.
Public demonstrations frighten us. And they can get ugly.
But if Shaver were black I suspect there would be activists talking loudly to the press and demonstrators forcing us to look very closely at policing policies in Mesa and the rest of the Valley, and causing politicians and law enforcement professionals to evaluate the systems they have in place for selecting officers and training them.
That wouldn’t be a bad thing.

The death of Samantha Ramsey
Where were the national protests for Samantha?
occurred on April 26, 2014 at 2:13 am on a Saturday morning at a farm party on the 6600 block on River Road (KY-8) in Hebron, Kentucky, in Boone County, Kentucky. Tyler Brockman, Deputy Sheriff of Boone County, shot four rounds with his Glock 22, hitting her in six spots, including a bullet going through her heart's left ventricle, as she was pulling out of a driveway in her 2001 Subaru away from the farm party, after she allegedly failed to obey Tyler Brockman's commands to stop. Samantha Ramsey died shortly after, at St. Elizabeth Hospital in Florence, Kentucky. There were three other passengers in the car, who witnessed the shooting
