Republicans say they want answers as to who allowed looters to go on rampages Hundreds of buildings were damaged, looted and burned — some completely destroyed. The damage in Minneapolis alone is estimated to be upwards of $100 million. “We all witnessed the destruction of businesses, some in broad daylight,” Gazelka said at a morning press conference. “The question is: Who decided the looters would be allowed to do that?” Republicans specifically want to know the details of what led Minneapolis police to abandon the Third Precinct police station. Additionally, they want to know why the National Guard was not a visible presence on the ground in Minneapolis until the weekend, four days after the violence started. But of course, the Democrats had something to say as well! “It is deeply discouraging and troubling to see Senate Republicans prioritize hearings that completely fail to address racial disparities within our criminal justice system,” she said “There will be time to address the civil unrest that occurred in the days following George Floyd’s senseless killing, but the work to enact transformative, systemic changes within law enforcement is urgent Just maybe those responsible will be held accountable? |
