Scott Posted January 26, 2023 Share Posted January 26, 2023 Five ex-police officers have been charged with second-degree murder after a man died following a traffic stop in Memphis, Tennessee. Tyre Nichols, 29, died three days after his arrest on 7 January for alleged reckless driving. The officers, who are all black, also face charges of aggravated assault, aggravated kidnapping, official misconduct and official oppression. https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-64420124 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I guess those that accuse the BBC of having a narrative and burying stories when they show the race involved will have to re think their rants. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is this supposed to be your link to Antifa? There is no evidence provided that they were there. the New York Post report makes an unsubstantiated claim here: Hundreds of far-left activists, including Antifa, had gathered on Saturday evening at the Five Points neighborhood in downtown Atlanta to protest the death of their comrade who died in a shootout with police earlier in the week at an occupation south of the city.

Bkk Brian Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 Didn't officials get in first? Seems they are doing the right thing no? Officials in Memphis have braced for potential civil unrest and have called for peaceful protests ahead of video of the fatal police encounter that’s expected to be publicly released Friday. The local school district also canceled all after-school activities Friday in the “interest of public safety.” Police departments across the country – including in Los Angeles, Atlanta, Minneapolis, Nashville and New York – told CNN they were either monitoring events or already had plans in place in case of protests. https://edition.cnn.com/2023/01/26/us/tyre-nichols-memphis-thursday/index.html 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said any protests should be peaceful, not that people should protest. President Biden released a statement on Thursday appealing for calm as authorities prepare to release the footage on Friday evening, local time. "I join Tyre's family in calling for peaceful protest," he said. "Outrage is understandable, but violence is never acceptable." https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-64421704 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
