ALERT Media is warning of violence tonight re Tyre Nichols death

Even though there's another thread on the death of Tyre Nichols (see CRIME - 5 Memphis officers fired over death of Tyre Nichols ) I think this deserves its own thread because it's breaking news and apparently officials are "EXPECTING" trouble--TONIGHT--in a number of American cities, in regard to the death of Tyre Nichols.

The Body-Cam of the police officers arrest / beating of Tyre Nichols is supposed to be released today, and that is apparently what authorities fear will trigger (chimp-outs) riots and violence tonight.

Apparently, per news reports I'm hearing on WSB radio and on conservative talk shows (listening right now to Mike Gallegher)--

cities in America are "bracing" for violence tonight in regard to the recent 2nd-Degree Murder charge of 5 (black) police officers in Memphis for the beating and susbsequent death of Tyre Nichols.

Commentators on talk radio are discussing how, since all 5 officers involved were black as well as the suspect, they can't blame it on "racism", but general anti-police "demonstrations" are expected this weekend--and by all accounts are expected to be violent.

Even though this happened in Tennessee, for some reason officials here in Atlanta, Georgia, are pleading for "calm" but are apparently expecting things to turn violent. Gov. Kemp (per reports I've heard) has not yet called out the National Guard but is completely willing to do so if necessary. (WHY do they have to protest anywhere but Memphis, where this happened?)

Gallegher also just noted that it seems a "damned if you do, damned if you don't" situation--

The officers involved were immediately fired, and already have been charged with 2nd-degree murder.

BUT--they were black.........SO........

now there are complaints that "if the officers hadn't been black, they wouldn't have been charged so quickly."

!

So they can't blame it on racism, and they want to riot against the police, but the police immediately took action re the actions of the officers (iow, tried to do the right thing) -- so NOW they're insinuating it's racism against the (black) officers because the police dept DID deal with this so promptly!

:screw:

Just now found this article about the video from the police cams about to be released "this evening":


Memphis police set to release video showing fatal beating of Tyre Nichols​

An attorney for Nichols' family described the video as three minutes of “unadulterated, unabashed, nonstop beating” after a private viewing this week.

Site would not allow me to copy the article; a screen-shot of it is below:

more at site; I couldn't screen-shot all of it b/c I'm at work...

Video of his mother (RowVaughn Wells) speaking about visiting her son at the hospital. She said she was originally told by police she "wasn't allowed" to visit him because he was under arrest, so it wasn't until he was dying 3 days later that the doctor at the hospital called and asked why she wasn't there. She had been told by police he'd only been tased and pepper-sprayed; she did not realize how badly he was hurt until she saw him in the hospital. Her description of it (which Gallegher played on his show just now (I'm listening to it at work) -- is horrific.

Video can be seen at link below (I cannot copy directly the link to the video): (runtime 5:30)

'Beat him to a pulp': Mom shares immediate reaction when arriving at hospital


In an exclusive interview, CNN's Don Lemon speaks with the mother of Tyre Nichols, RowVaughn Wells, and his stepfather, Rodney Wells, on the day police are expected to release footage of his violent arrest and death.

Wow. If the "chimponia" are this dangerous - with national warnings of Chimp-out? Then MAGA must be off the charts!

Why stir the pot now? A ramp up for summer? It's like they've run thru the tools in their toolbox and are pulling out old ones in the hopes they'll fix the problems or distract from them? If this is a distraction, for what exactly?

I'm going to step out on a limb here--as the daughter of a man who served for a while as a peace officer--and say this:

I've seen how having some "Au-THOR-i-TAY" goes to some people's heads.

And (sorry if anyone thinks this is racist; just my personal experience) 9 times out of 10 when I've encountered people who very quickly go ballistic when they think their "Au-THOR-i-TAY" is being challenged--they're black.

I've had to deal with black CSR's on the phone, at stores, in govt offices (like the tag office) -- if they sense the SLIGHTEST "dissing" from others, they blow up.

I think that may be what happened here.

ALL FIVE officers were black.

And it sounds like THEY are the ones who went "full chimp-out"--on this guy.

And given my personal family history, and my pride in my daddy and in GOOD police officers--

if these guys did indeed do what they're being accused of doing--if they DID actually just beat the guy to death in a fit of anger for no good reason--

then all five should die the same way.

They're bad cops.

They give / gave cops a bad name.

When you take an oath and then violate it in this way, that's one of the most heinous things you can do.

Boohoo another thug ass loser dying as they lived at the hands of their own. Monkies take any and every opportunity to stir up shit and run rampant. One less that need dealt with once the bottom falls out of our society
I think you might want to read the reports before you assume.

The monkies here seem to be the officers.

Officers who use their badge to cover up wrongdoing are the bottom of the barrel, in my sight.

I wonder if it'd defuse the riots if they just handed them over to the rioters and let them tear them limb from limb--that would be "one less that need dealt with" and save us the massive costs of the trials.

The video will tell.

Because "riot and protest" are code words for KILL, STEAL and DESTROY!!

HMMMM, where have I heard those words before????

Ah, YES!!

This may be bad, we'll have to wait to see the video. But if all parties were black, there's no basis to stir up a race war.

Doesn't mean they won't try. Plus, Joe will be able to go down to Memphis to tell us how, when he was a kid, he used to be black.

The cops certainly got carried away and should pay for it, but why did Tyre run to begin with? I really doubt cops anywhere are in the habit of stopping cars and beating the snot out of the drivers for no reason. Most likely Tyre started this whole mess by copping an attitude and then resisting and running. If he had just been polite and answered the officer's questions he probably would have gotten a ticket and been sent on his way. From what little I've seen of his background I don't think he was a troublemaker. Why are these guys so stupid? I'm waiting on the video of the initial stop to see what kicked this mess off.

Sounds like you've already made up your mind.

That scumbag POS george floyd was supposed to be some "cleaned-up, innocent, man of God" too...until it was found out otherwise.

So it takes 5 (from what it appears) large african-american police officers to subdue 1 skinny ass dude...and the you take the assumption and all the FEELZ that they just beat him for sport; and no one asks any other questions. I'll leave the door open a crack for the faintest possibility that the officers here were thugs (or even former rival gang members in relation to the perp) BUT, 99 times out of 100 the skinny ass dude was under the influence of something or many somethings and/or had severe mental issues.

Amen to the George Floyd comments. The media is going to amplify this mess by only showing the worst parts of the video. They've already hyped it up. I was the whole Rodney King video only once before the media edited it and just showed the end of it. The part they clipped out showed Rodney coming out of the car swinging and I think he had several Taser darts sticking to him. He was a big guy and high enough on something to not feel any pain. That's a tough guy to subdue gracefully. I suspect we're all going to be played on this one too. One more thing, Benjamin Crump is involved now. No way this stays calm. He's picked up the agitation reins from Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton.

Watching from afar, it almost looks like the US media are trying to stir things up - even giving dates, times, and locations for showing up. That may not be what is going on, but it sure looks like it.
I am watching this event live, and that is exactly what is going down right now, as I write this, just a few miles from my home. “This only happens to blacks” Ben Crump emphasizes.

”this is going to be one of the hardest nights ever in our city. Lets stand together to fight this.”

These words are being repeated over and over by one civic leader and the next.

And these leaders really are claiming that protests will be happening in other cities “across the country.”


THESE WERE BLACK OFFICERS WHO ACTED SO HEINOUSLY!

And please note that it is being held at a black church known for being a leader in the black activist movement over the decades.

As a white man who lives within 15 miles of the church where this is happening, and my wife, who is a cancer victim — is also feeling threatened when they talk about what will happen tonight.

I have done nothing wrong, yet I am feeling threatened by this press conference, and by the threats of “a hard night tonight“.


I am VERY ALARMED AND VERY CONCERNED FOR THE CRUEL BEATING AND DEATH OF THIS YOUNG BLACK MAN.



BUT WHY IS MY ENTIRE COMMUNITY - INDEED COMMUNITIES ACROSS THE NATION - BEING (NOT SO SUBTLY) THREATENED, BECAUSE OF THE HORRIBLE, UNACCEPTABLY VIOLENT BEHAVIOR, OF A FEW ROGUE POLICE OFFICERS?


BLACK OFFICERS, NO LESS!

I wouldn't be a BIT suprised if he did!

From a 60s bumper sticker:

I have a dream too: LAW and ORDER

I don't care who was at fault. That can be settled in the courtroom. My focus is on stopping the mayhem.

Looting and rioting in our downtowns are unacceptable responses to any police or legal action.

I'm going by what the MEMPHIS POLICE are saying. The POLICE are reporting this. Not the socialists.

Given that my dad was a peace officer for some while, almost nothing makes me madder than a bad cop who wrecks things for all other cops. I am not of the school that all cops are immaculate saints and all people arrested are total scumbags.

Remember the officers who locked a woman inside a patrol car---parked on railroad tracks--a few weeks ago?

What had that lady done to deserve being run down by a train?

We're about 18 months from the next pResidential election, and 8 months before the cycle begins. The Soros/Democrat army most likely have been giving their marching orders once again. Stuff like this doesn't automatically die off for two years then magically ramp up again.

There are no coincidences.

Why would this happen everywhere or anywhere? THEY got away with it in 2020 and beyond, and unless you are Jan 6 protestor, you are mostly peaceful... :kaid:
Just like Saint George Floyd, the only person in America “with COVID” that actually didn’t die from COVID. The hypocrisy with these leftest Marxists is endless….
 

day late

money? whats that?
Injustice is injustice. Skin color doesn't enter into it. The officers were wrong, period. Unlike the men in the Floyd case, these men tried to inflect damage that was unwarranted. For that, they deserve to do the time. That doesn't mean that MSM is going to admit that. They WILL try to make this a racist thing, no matter who was involved. A race war is one of the quickest easiest ways to bring this country down and they not only know that, they promote it.
