Almost ready for kick off the English Premier League plans to resume its season after a 3 month shutdown due to coronavirus. 3 days of protests over the killing of unarmed black man in the us city of minneapolis has exploded into a new night of violence an entire Police Precinct has now been set ablaze a large crowd of people targeted the building in minneapolis in the 3rd straight day of violent demonstrations there demanding justice over the death of black man george floyd who died in the city while in Police Custody on monday video showed him gasping for air while being pinned to the ground by Police Officers need. This was the scene earlier on not far from the Police Station several buildings were on file including a large stall the National Guard is now being called into the city of the matter is declared a local emergency for 72 hours on wednesday night stores were looted and buildings will set alight john hendren has more on the growing protests. With looters raiding stores. Some shopkeepers are taking up arms to protect your store the fuel for your timid rising rage in the streets of minnesota. Just in minneapolis have swelled over the death of george floyd seen on video gasping for breath theres a Police Officer knelt on his neck as mourners held a vigil at the spot where it happened prosecutors and the f. B. I. Promised an aggressive investigation of the officers involved i am pleading i am pleading with individuals. To remain calm and to let us conduct this investigation that was not with demonstrators wanted to hear and on the streets it showed the announcement of a high profile News Conference had many expecting criminal charges against the police but investigations take time and for many protesters after so many incidents like this across the u. S. Patience has simply run out of. Peaceful protests turned into riots with looters smashing store windows and setting fires that engulfed entire city blocks in Minneapolis Police responded with tear gas and rubber coated bullets at the mayors request minnesota is sending in the army National Guard this could be a point in time when several years from now we can look back to know that we rose to right the wrongs of the past. Not just with words but with action. In new york and other cities across the u. S. Demonstrators join an increasingly contentious protests that are growing a ray of Public Officials want the officers already fired from their jobs to face serious charges we did see a murder on t. V. And it wasnt selfdefense yet. At the home of the officer who knelt on floyds neck protesters have written their own verdict with the embers of the riots in the communities anger still smoldering finding out of prosecutors reach that same decision could take weeks possibly months to answer john hendren aljazeera chicago oh a place in evolved in floyds death being 5 but many want them to Face Criminal Charges colas been echoed rallies in los angeles and new york protesters that clashed with police after gathering downtown ignoring kind of virus restrictions still in place in the city and in denver crowds of people help like collins and marched along city streets also joining the call for the offices of minneapolis to face justice crowds also gathered around the State Capitol building mariama coffees a journalist monitoring those protests in colorado joins us now by skype so mary how those protests looking right now and. So even though sammy those protests here in denver are of course much smaller than the ones and los angeles and many apple as they did get quite tense it appears that the authorities had to shoot something along the lines of tear gas protesters at one point did a black one of the major freeways i 25 and really had a very tense evening thats still ongoing here and denver and it meant minneapolis and its such a strange feeling here because theres so much discussion in the lead up to whether or not people would go out and protest i followed it all very carefully among the discussions that activists online do you take the danger of going out during a pandemic do you risk that and the reason to go out and protest against this. Death on camera by a Police Officer of a black man is that a national reason to go out and risk your life possibly getting coronavirus obviously for thousands of thousands of people around the u. S. Many of them africanamericans who feel the most touched by and thats the most affected and the most offended theyre out there protesting most of it peacefully regardless of what we see on the images the images that are coming in and show some overturned a Police Officer police cars also in the precinct its on fire in minneapolis the latest number there is 3 precincts on fire but largely the protests have been peaceful there were of colts. Of shots being fired in the process to have a thing on that. Absolutely there were shots fired here in denver a believe its believed that they were shot by somebody who was perhaps on standby standing by the protest or involved in it fortunately no one was hurt throughout the protests and police are using those weapon them nonlethal weapons like tear gas like rubber bullets and also a stun gun that type weapons in order to calm people down in minneapolis and National Guard has been called in to reinforce the Police Presence thats quite common i believe historically here in the u. S. We havent seen protests this big probably since the ferguson the shooting in st louis of Michael Brown going about back about 6 years that was a real flash point in this movement of protest against Police Brutality against minorities and particularly black men and this feels like a reoccurrence of that only i would say a much stronger and for the 1st time im hearing really widespread support from the White Community one of the politicians ordinary people for the 1st time more than ever it seems that could be a turning point where americans at large are saying this isnt a problem that minorities need to talk about or minorities need to protest against that something that all americans black white or whatever color need to get out and Say Something about and find a solution to whats going on in our society with the way police treat civilians thank you so much my macof a for bringing us the latest on that on their behinds is a form of Baltimore City prosecutor and says the incident exposes flaws in the u. S. Justice system. Justice is supposed to be blind and justice is not supposed to work differently it is supposed to work the same way whether youre white whether youre black whether youre latino whether youre Asian American it doesnt matter what color you are but the reality is it works quite differently and theres a lot of 2nd guessing always in the case is a Police Officer is when its a black victim thats involved its a 2nd guessing what more do we need well maybe there was something that we didnt see on the video its always looked at from the advantage of the perpetrator and not from the advantage of that from the point of view of the victim who was being choked to death for 10 minutes but justice is not supposed to work like that is supposed to be justice for all and that includes black americans showing that black lives to matter in this country and i think back to the case of walter scott the africanamerican who was shot in the back 9 or 10 times as he was pulling away from Police Officers in South Carolina that officer was aggressive he was put on trial and had his 1st trial it was a hung jury which means a jury although they saw a video they saw in me and being shot in the back who was running away who was not a threat to the Police Officer the jury could not reach a verdict and that is what happens when i say there are 2 sides of justice in america so when any ordinary circumstance if you have a picture not even necessarily a video it would work that the person would be convicted of 1st degree murder for even less less than what we see on this video this video is outrageous and one of the other Police Officers who was of the 4 that the other 3 that restraining there he also had at least i believe 3 other he had 3 complaints against him and he was also still working one of the officers had a civil suit that was settled for Excessive Force that was settled by the city and he was still working i mean thats just the problem is that even though these officers were fired i hate to say this but these officers can likely go to a no other jurisdiction and start working again as Police Officers thats a whole irony of the whole thing they can at work in minneapolis but they can work for another Police Department and that is what happens in some of the. Orest take you through some latest pictures coming out of louisville kentucky these are live scenes that were looking at there with protesters gathering there in louisville obviously Police Taking a stance there with batons and helmets it just demonstrates how this is an issue that is rippling right across america from the west coast of east coast where u. S. President donald trump has made his frustration with twitter fishel he signed an executive order aimed at stripping social media platforms of some Legal Protections especially if they remove or amend content on their sites it comes after 2 of the president s tweets were labeled misleading she had written c. Reports from washington. Twitters placement of an exclamation mark and a suggestion that users get the facts about mail in voting after the president s unsubstantiated claims about the corruption of postal ballots have led to the executive order theres no president in American History for so small a number of corporations to control so large a sphere of Human Interaction therefore today abseiling executive order to protect it appalled the free speech rights of the American People however this is new crackdown instead there will be a review of section 230 of the Communications Decency act the prevents Internet Companies from being sued over content and hes calling for the federal Communications Commission trade commission and state attorneys to look at placing new rules on social Media Companies to control editing he says to protect free speech but the president does not have the Legal Authority to strike down the section to 30 and he may face resistance from the f. T. C. And f. C. C. Independent bodies that have been reluctant in the past to take on policing the internet it is talking about a review which implies a period of time its not clear how much of this is saber rattling right there are things you can do with an executive order those things you cant do there are probably litigation if they did try to do an executive order this is a nuanced complex issue republicans complain about censorship on social media platforms democrats like House Speaker nancy pelosi speaking about facebook on thursday complain there isnt enough both have threatened similar legislation our Business Model is to misrepresent the facts and to be a platform to do that and try to hide under freedom of speech which is of course a complete violation of everything and freedom of speech stands for both are also stepping into tricky territory about who decides what is acceptable and what isnt and the issue the framers of the constitution were clear about it should not be the government but should be the platforms themselves and i dont think facebook or. In general should be arbiters of truth i think thats kind of a dangerous line to get down to in terms of just citing what is or what is true and what isnt Civil Liberties advocates warn that private companies have their own commercial priorities and should not become gatekeepers of the truth facebook already censors content in consultation with governments around the world the company has been broken up so it does its utmost to keep local authorities happy and bipartisan support for doing just that has been growing if facebook and other platforms have less of a stranglehold over our daily discourse its all good limiting free speech on their sides may not be necessary she have a tendency aljazeera washington. So i had on al jazeera restrictions back in place in south korea officer a sudden jump in coronavirus case is. The u. S. President offers to mediate a border disputes between india and china.
