They're afraid to do anything post canonization of St.Floyd. Either they go full force and risk another canonization and "summer of love" or just ignore it. When you punish police for doing their jobs... you get this as an outcome. Now eat the cake team blue made for us.
Why you going to fire him?. It's Minnesota. You guys defunded the police you wanted sensitivity DEI training?. I think he's doing the job you guys asked him to do?. Keep voting for Democrats. It seems to be working out great. The victim looks like a Democrat himself?.
The victim need to sue the city and this officer making that decision! If they did their job arresting him on his warrants the neighbor wouldnt got shot!
Not in Minneapolis. Just keep playing the race card and see what happens. You'll end up with leftist's running police departments and policies that negatively impact blacks as well as whites. Uninformed hysteria around GF and the ensuing riots helped to get Minneapolis to where they are at and now you are complaining that the police aren't aggressive enough. Actions have consequences and you are now sowing what you have reaped.
First he blamed the victim for his own shooting and now he is blaming him for putting the cops in danger because the guy now knows they want to arrest him. Then he went on to imply that BLM made cops afraid to arrest him. So literally the victim has to suffer because of BLM. I have zero doubt that if the victim was the perp, SWAT would have already been in that house!

We have to defund ICE [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] and CBP [Customs and Border Patrol]. We have defund all the systems of policing we see. It’s not just about these institutions, it’s also about defunding the ways that we police each other.” - Andrea Jenkins
So as a resident of Minneapolis it seems the city council and law enforcement are not on the same page. My question is what is causing all the conflict ? Is the city council preventing our safety? Is it time for constitutional carry just so we can be safe?
Unfortunately you can't neuter the police force for four years ,having them stand down and avoid confrontation in ever situation and then expect them to react with aggression, when they choose.
I can see why the police did what they did. I'm not saying it's right, or I agree with it. To all those speaking out, first look at yourselves, how many of you are the reason the police came to this?
But that's when they have pysch evaluations and things like this ready to go once they take him into custody. That shooting is just as much the police department's fault.
The opening statement by the police chief: "It is extremely disappointing...." Yes, yes it is, sir, that you and your police force have not done your job, to protect your community. The second part of the statement: ".....I didnt receive a single phone call from....." Sir, you shouldnt need to have to received such a phone call. If you had done the job, that you probably took an oath to fulfill, in the first place, that phone call would have never needed to be placed. This man deflects, bigly.
Chief O'Hara, everthing you say and do is logical and very clear. City government what are you going to do??? Not backing O'Hara is going to backfire again, have you not had enough of this for the last 5 years?? He had the courage to step into this city and position and yet you continue to make this about you and refuse to see the big picture and back him. Prayers for the victim and his family.
So you offer "Prayers for the victim and his family" (which is a coward's way of saying you won't do anything) but have absolutely nothing bad to say about the person and organization that refused to arrest someone with THREE active warrants and they knew exactly where he was at all times? Mr. O'Hara it is time for you to stop using shadow accounts and promote yourself to "unemployed".
The victim told MPD that Sawchek would shoot him if he touched the tree between the properties. So what does Vic do? Saws the tree. Instead of trying to assist MPD by calling when Sawchek was out of the house so he could be arrested SAFELY FOR ALL. MPD is short handed and we need to assist them with information. Besides, O'hara is right, damned if you do and damned if you don't. This city is so EAGER to pounce on anything MPD does. There is all kinds of scrutiny on them, cameras everywhere. Enough! Let them do their job.
He’s not doing his job in this case! I’m quite sure if this guy shot your neighbor, and you lived on his block, your narrative would change! You’d be extremely worried about your safety, children, etc.

Chief O'Hara, everthing you say and do is logical and very clear. City government what are you going to do??? Not backing O'Hara is going to backfire again, have you not had enough of this for the last 5 years?? He had the courage to step into this city and position and yet you continue to make this about you and refuse to see the big picture and back him. Prayers for the victim and his family.
You can shoot a man and go in the house?
So you offer "Prayers for the victim and his family" (which is a coward's way of saying you won't do anything) but have absolutely nothing bad to say about the person and organization that refused to arrest someone with THREE active warrants and they knew exactly where he was at all times? Mr. O'Hara it is time for you to stop using shadow accounts and promote yourself to "unemployed".
Tf. No, no. You do not understand logic nor the role of a police chief, much less that of a police officer.
The victim told MPD that Sawchek would shoot him if he touched the tree between the properties. So what does Vic do? Saws the tree. Instead of trying to assist MPD by calling when
Sawchek was out of the house so he could be arrested SAFELY FOR ALL. MPD is short handed and we need to assist them with information. Besides, O'hara is right, damned if you do and damned if you don't. This city is so EAGER to pounce on anything MPD does. There is all kinds of scrutiny on them, cameras everywhere. Enough! Let them do their job.
He’s not doing his job in this case! I’m quite sure if this guy shot your neighbor, and you lived on his block, your narrative would change! You’d be extremely worried about your safety, children, etc.
@@shaggywagshaggywagI wouldn't cut down the tree unless the police is standing there as a witness. The tree exists between the two properties. He knew it would provoke his neighbor.

..And blaming the victim! Fire this police chief- just terrible
Guy who got shot needs to sue the city.
