Fake News people arrested. Now lock up their boss too.
 
Watching the CNN journalist arrest and after they took him off I wonder if a cop was like “we can’t just arrest the black guy, get a couple white guys too” :D

In America if you try and intervene a police man can shoot you and say it was in self defence and your defeacting the ends of justice or whatever crap they bring up.

The cop's partner was standing right next to him.

Black CNN reporter arrested on air at protests over George Floyd killing

Journalist Omar Jimenez had just shown a protester being arrested when Minneapolis police officers surrounded him, without giving a reason

Police in Minnesota arrested a black CNN reporter reporting live on television early Friday morning while covering the Minneapolis protests and led him and three crew members away in handcuffs, in what has been criticized as a racist incident.

Black reporter Omar Jimenez had just shown a protester being arrested when about half a dozen white police officers from the Minnesota State Patrol surrounded him, without giving a reason.

“We can move back to where you like,” he told the officers wearing gas masks and face shields, before explaining live on air that he and his crew were members of the press. “We’re getting out of your way.”

“This is among the state patrol unit that was advancing up the street, seeing and scattering the protesters at that point for people to clear the area. And so we walked away,” Jimenez said before being told he was under arrest and handcuffed by two officers. “Why am I under arrest, sir?”

Jimenez and the the crew were later released. CNN reported that Minnesota governor Tim Waltz had apologized to CNN president Jeff Zucker for the incident. Waltz said Jimenez “clearly had the right to be there” and he was deeply sorry, CNN reported.

In contrast, another of CNN’s correspondents, Josh Campbell, who is white, was reporting around a block away from Jimenez. He said police were “polite” when they approached him to ask him which outlet he was with, and they told him: “Ok, you’re good.”

Andrea Jenkins, Minneapolis city council vice-president, told CNN in an interview that the incident was yet another example of systemic racism. On Thursday, she had called for local and state officials to declare racism in Minnesota a public health emergency.

“Until we deal with outright racism head on, it’s going to continue,” she said.

Speaking on CNN, attorney Bakari Sellers said he had been scared for Jimenez. “We have a white reporter on the ground, and we have a brown reporter on the ground. They are a block apart. The brown reporter is arrested, and the white reporter is telling us what is happening.”

Walz had declared a state emergency and ordered the National Guard activated on Thursday. Later in the evening, Donald Trump suggested in a tweet that looters would be shot. Twitter accused him of breaking its rules by “glorifying violence.”

Well it's true. And it is their own people. This state and city and police are run by Democrats.
