Actually, Chauvin worked outside and Floyd inside, according to the owner in another report I read on DU.

is a recipe for police corruption. Not unimaginable that Floyd knew something.
Just a theory.... but it makes you wonder.

They want a race war and by God will do everything in their power to get one started. They want the MAGAT's all riled up and ready to kill us for nothing at all.

I think that's been repeated to me endless times. Violence prevention workshops. Safety orientation during college (I went to an urban university near a then-economically depressed neighborhood).

You're more likely to be raped, abused or murdered by someone you know than a random stranger. I think stats on muggings vary, but anecdotally I remember a friend who ran into the very group of kids that attempted to rob him and found they lived in his neighborhood.
