I watched the entire video. Omar asked countless times where they should go, where they should stand so they could be out of the way, and was entirely congenial and non-combative with the cops, even as he was handcuffed and taken away. There was not a single action taken by the Minneapolis PD that was legal, or had precedent. Everything they did was clearly against policy, law, and their training. And there were SEVEN officers involved in the arrest of the CNN crew, and more than 20 that stood watching. I've never said this before, but ... fuck all cops. All of them. I just watched them join ranks and defy their training, ethics, and morals, and none of them did ANYTHING about it.
