Police station on fire. The police had to abandon their headquarters. They abandoned the neighborhood. Stores were set on fire. There were explosions. It was scary. It was dangerous. Some of the angry people started looting, breaking windows, stealing merchandise, setting their own community on fire. And then this is the loop we get stuck in. It goes from, it isnt right to kill an unarmed man. Well, it also isnt right to loot, and set fires and attack the police. But the police are attacking us, and killing us over and over again, and nothing changes. Well, that needs to be settled by the law. But an officer of the law just killed another unarmed man. And so on. These were senseless acts of violence brought on by a senseless act of violence. And that just keeps going. In a loop. And again, the only reason we even know what happened to george floyd is because its on video. Most incidents like this are not, which is why parents of young black men have to teach their kids how to avoid bei
The two doctors respond to today. In putting you all together, it was delayed a little bit more than i had hoped for, and i actually just provided these questions to dr. Aragon and dr.

Aragon yesterday, i thought it would be good to provide an overall overview to frame the discussion and als
Human being for eight minutes and ended his life. And many millions of americans are angry. Especially in minneapolis. The policeman who killed george floyd, and the three other cops who stood there and did nothing to stop it were fired. But none of them had been charged with anything until today which was almost certainly a result of what happened last night. And the fact that no charges were filed for anyone who saw that video was hard to understand. So yesterday, late in the day, the us attorney, the county attorney and the fbi held a joint press conference, which was intended to reassure everyone that justice would be done. But it didnt. It made it worse. And so again, protestors gathered. They threw rocks, they set the Police Station on fire. The police had to abandon their headquarters. They abandoned the neighborhood.
