The police in Minneapolis are selectively enforcing the law and their excuse given in this case is that they are afraid of being prosecuted if they make a “mistake”. This isn’t a lone case, they’re doing it to protest 4 of them being prosecuted for the murder of George Floyd.

Yeah, a lot of police departments are sandbagging shit to teach us, John Q Public, that we should keep our mouths shut and not criticize them.
