Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey (D) requested on Thursday that “protesters” in the City of Lakes practice social distancing and wear masks to reduce coronavirus transmission. The municipal government claimed to provide hundreds of masks to the public for this purpose.

Frey’s comments came during ongoing protests and riots in Minneapolis following the death of George Floyd, a man who died after a municipal police officer placed his knee on Floyd’s neck while handcuffed.

The city government issued a statement on Thursday via its website with the mayor’s request.

“The City encourages everyone to exercise caution to stay safe while participating in demonstrations, including wearing masks and physical distancing as much as possible to prevent the spread of COVID-19,” the statement reads. “The City has made hundreds of masks available to protesters this week.”

Frey linked the unrest to slavery during remarks he made on Thursday:

What we’ve seen over the last two days and the emotion-ridden conflict over last night is the result of so much built-up anger and sadness, anger and sadness that has been ingrained in our black community, not just because of five minutes of horror, but 400 years. If you’re feeling that sadness and that anger, it’s not only understandable, it’s right.
It’s a reflection of the truth that our black community has lived. While not from lived experience, that sadness must also be understood by our non-black communities. To ignore it, to toss it out, would be to ignore the values we all claim to have. That are all the more important during a time of crisis.

“This could be the marker,” added Frey. “This could be a point in time, when several years from now we can look back to know that we rose to right the wrongs of the past. Not just with words, but with action.”

Frey, who wore a mask for his Twitter profile photo, framed Lloyd’s death in racial terms.

Here's the thing.

Over 1 million FELONY arrests, that doesn't include the millions of misdemeanor stops or other police interactions a year.

You have a handful of bad cases. Most of them force is justified. But these handful are grabbed by the media for clicks.

This really isn't a problem at all. I don't know what system runs 100%. It's 99% and that's good enough.

And this coming from someone who has every right to hate cops. I've been stopped for going 5 miles under the speed limit (going up the ramp) by a black state trooper fishing for a DUI. I've been stopped for the same by white police officers with the lame excuse "you kinda cut me off".

Yeah, the police act like entitled brats. But 99% of the time, they get it right.

Right. This was never about blacklivesmatter, and all that shit. It was about political power. These actions are typical in precursory events before a socialist revolution. Similar actions like this have happened in every country where socialism took over.

If a MSNBsC reporter can stand in front a burning store, and say the "protests are NOT generally unruly," there is an clearly another objective to these "protests."

They definitely need overhauling, but to paraphrase Jack Nicholson in the departed "let's not cry over spilled nignogs".
