The FBI is investigating the death of George Floyd, black man who was pinned on the neck by a police officer and later died in custody. Minnesota’s Attorney General Keith Ellison joins The Beat with Ari Melber’s breaking coverage on the latest from the FBI and the protests. While the officers involved have yet to be charged, Ellison argues a “quick arrest” might “make people feel better about justice” it is “important” for investigators to “take the time to make sure that these charges, if they are brought forward, stick.

    The fascist Antifa organization is by definition a leftist organization which CANNOT by definition be anti fascist.

    Even their dress evokes pictures of the Black Shirts and Brown Shirts of the 20’s and 30’s in fascist Italy and Germany.

    The organization members are dumb enough to believe people cannot see through their charade.

    I am not surprised. I call it the Barbadian Condition. From South Korea, to Berlin, to Sydney to Paris and every major town and city in the UK, there was a march in support of the Floyd family, and against police brutality.
    There is something about our mindset, the way our thinking processes work. I put it down to the learning by rote. It is clear the instruction came from either the despotic president or the US embassy. Nothing happened between the time the police gave operational permission for the march and today.
    In three years time we will not recognise our democracy. It will end in tears. The marchers should have ignored the police and see if they would have ordered the BDF o the streets to shoot down civilians.

    Republicans are interested in preserving lives before the babies are born, after that not so much.
    Trump is the first prisoner in the WH since Jimmy Carter and the Iran hostage crisis, after the SS escorted him to his bunker he claimed to be just “inspecting” it, that trip cost him to tear gas peaceful protestors for a photo op.

    Imagine if that was Michelle Obama, them wud be criticising her off the charts. While she was in Law school, Melanie was…

    But there is a bigger difference for them, haha…. which is why their rantings against the protests and in support of Trump are nonsense. Because we already know their mentality at its core….. evil , just as Trump, and spouting about the bible.

    But what do you expect from evangelical bible thumpers like Swaggart, Baker who showed their true colors.

    Why would the authorities require the names of protestors as long as they are not breaking the law?”

    David Commie Sing Song Lil Communist Band Under the Guise of The Caribbean Movement for Peace and Integration who Organised the Protest after they appealed to The Commissioner were told his Hands were Tied because of the COVID Restriction. They went over his Head to Dale Marshall…Probably under Commies Advice were given permission for Ten Persons for Three Locations. Remember the Communist Ambassador for CARICOM was Trying to HELP IN THE FIGHT AGAINST AMERICA IN SOLIDARITY WITH HIS COMMUNIST BUDDIES WHILE LEADING ALL OF WE TO OUR OWN DETRIMENT.

    SO IN ESSENCE, THEY WERE BREAKING THE LAW!

    While your incoherent rants continue protesting in the US by people of all hues enter its 12th day.

    This is what matters.

    Look what the act of a racist police with several chargesheets against him has resulted.

    This is all that matter besides Black lives of course.

    You can continue to post your BS and in the process bare your empty soul but a movement has been ignited.

    THE VIRUS IS GOING TO BE AMONGST US LOCALLY AND WORLDWIDE FOR SEVERAL YEARS, NOW BEING USED AS AN EXCUSE OF DENYING FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION IS TYPICAL BAJAN IGNORANCE USED BY POLITICIANS AND THEIR LACKEYS.

    A movement has started, yes. This is not going away. This is here to stay. Only by strongly addressing practices of government and agencies such as the police, will this go away.

    A new order of things, hiring, procedures, interaction with others. In private businesses too, such as Wall Street.

    No doubt certain groups, including people mentioned above in comments, will pump money to fund against it, but change is real. There are some things that money will not stop.

    Time longer than twine.

    It’s a goddamn pity OSA has been silenced because of his big legally-untrained mouth.

    I DON’T MIX MY WORDS WITH JOHNNIES LIKE YOU.

    I DON’T LIVE SOMEWHERE WHERE MY FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION IS COMPROMISED.

    I ALSO DON’T LIVE IN THE US CURRENTLY HOWEVER HAVING LIVED THERE AS FAR AS I AM CONCERNED IT IS THE GREATEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD TRUMP OR NO TRUMP.

    HOWEVER GLAD TO SEE A CUNT LIKE YOU IN BARBADOS ALONG WITH ALL THE OTHER SIMILAR CUNTS WHERE YOU ALL BELONG.

    95% PERCENT OF BAJANS EARN LESS THE BD$100,000 PER YEAR LOCALLY, I MAKE TWICE AS MUCH AS THAT SO I AM HAPPY WITH MY POOR LOT IN LIFE.

    I was encouraged to see protests all over the world especially in Australia where native people where protesting about their treatment at the hands of the authorities.

    For those who think that sullying the name of George Floyd helps their cause I would remind them that there are no perfect victims and perfect victims end up dead just like others who come into contact with those who have sworn to serve and protect us.

    Then again it could have been Antifa as it is a fascist organization and the fascists can’t be very happy with Churchill.

    WARU, a peaceful protest stopped in Bim. Wow.

    And it would have remained peaceful, because the only one in Bim who are violent are the drug people. And they are peddlers for money, not moralistic folk. So they aint nowhere near a demonstration.

    So why was it stopped? Cant speak freely now? Meanwhile that Goddard woman letting go in the video, telling wunnah what it is.

    She will probably get some injunctions in her tail soon. But if she has gone as far as to post videos, she maybe does not care.

    How long could it take for an injunction to stop her anyway? Unless tings happen faster for some.

    Police: Too many people turned up for march

    [caption id="" align="alignleft" width="363"] Some of the people who turned up yesterday to protest outside the United States Embassy, Wildey,[/caption]
    A permit breach led to the Commissioner of Police rescinding authorisation for the demonstration yesterday outside the United States Embassy, “During the preparations for the start of the march, it became evident that the number of participants far exceeded the number specified in the permit,” he said. “This was an obvious breach of the conditions that were agreed to, and as a result, a decision was made by the Commissioner of Police to revoke the permit.”
    In response to a statement by the Caribbean Movement for Peace and Integration that indicated they would be rotating every ten protesters, Forte said: “The agreed number of persons were ten and if you add any other numbers to ten, it cannot be ten anymore.”
    Wildey, St Michael.
    During a press conference at Central Police Station hours after the protest was broken up by police, Superintendent Antonio Forte, Officer in Charge of the Bridgetown Division, explained that too many people had turned up for the protest organised by the Caribbean Movement for Peace and Integration to take a stand against the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis, Minnesota, in the United States. Forte said: “It is unfortunate that people think that way because we all recognise that the event (Black Lives Matter protests) had become very global and is something, that all of us, and I can speak for myself, do support. “However, we must do things the right way and we sought to do this this (yesterday) morning”.

    On Tuesday, June 2, Hanuman wrote to the Commissioner of Police for the permission to hold a picket. In that letter, Hanuman said the demonstration would last from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. and estimated that no more than ten people would attend the event as per theEmergency Management COVID-19 Curfew (No.6) Directive 2020. (SB)been revoked, the protesters did not leave the site. They chanted, sang Bob Marley songs and recited poems.
    Forte said that at that point the priority was about deescalating the situation.
    “When it comes to public order, it is best for law enforcement to deescalate a pending problem more so than to create additional problems. To make arrests at that time, although lawful, was not advisable at the time and we sought to resolve it more amicably,” he explained.
    Superintendent Antonio Forte, Officer in Charge of the Bridgetown Division, said too many people turned up for the march organised by the Caribbean Movement for Peace and Integration to protest the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis, Minnesota.
