"Disobedience is a demand for change."

The public is insanely tired of cops murdering innocent/non-violent (black) people so the riots and demonstrations are the public's last resort for affecting change. It's a statement that the PDs rule of law is no longer respected or wanted and all it took was a proverbial knee on the neck of the public.

So to me its deserved. 3 other officers stood by or actively assisted while one of their own did the opposite of protect and serve, he murdered and dishonored his own populace. He could have, at any of the 10 minute he was on George Floyd's neck, stopped, but he didn't. So why should the public stop for the Police that clearly didn't stop when they should have.

The entire PD, top to bottom, needs to be investigated, and those in that officers squad and direct leadership need to go and permanently be blacklisted from all law enforcement career opportunities in the future. To send a message that the public will start holding the Police accountable not just for their individual actions but for those that stand by and excuse the abuses going on.
