A
A
A
A
B
Jamar
george
and
dante
will
now
be
added
to
that.
So
I
express
my
deepest
sympathies
to
the
family.
Knowing
that
there's
absolutely
nothing.
I
can
say
that
will
make
this
better
or
take
this
back,
but
with
an
understanding.
There
are
things
that
we
can
do.
The
first
is
we
can
simply
acknowledge.
It
doesn't
need
to
be
this
way.
B
We
need
to
make
sure
that
that
space
is
available,
and
we
also,
though,
need
to
hold
at
the
same
time
that
those
that
wish
to
do
harm
or
destruction
to
property
or
to
put
people
at
risk.
It
will
not
be
tolerated,
and
we
have
known
for
many
months
that,
as
this
trial
and
the
focus
of
this
nation
was
on
this
trial,
that
there
would
be
those
that
want
to
do
both
those
that
want
to
bring
about
change
those
that
want
to
express
their
constitutional
rights.
B
B
And
the
folks
you're
going
to
hear
from
after
the
mayor
speak
are
our
public
safety
professionals
and
that
will
include
everybody
from
the
state
patrol
to
our
local
police
departments,
to
our
county,
sheriffs,
to
our
national
guard
and
in
this
organization,
to
community
leaders
and
to
sociologists
and
psychologists
and
people
who
are
out
there
to
understand
that.
There's
trauma
in
the
community
and
simply
sometimes
having
uniformed
officers,
is
enough
to
trigger
people
and
to
cause
situations
to
escalate,
and
those
things
have
been
given
consideration.
B
There
are
things
that
can
be
done.
There
are
proposals
that
are
out
there.
There's
proven
remedies
that
can
be
put
into
place,
but
that
will
never
happen
if
we
don't
at
least
hold
hearings
on
these
things,
if
we
don't
at
least
get
ourselves
into
an
uncomfortable
position
and
do
what
this
democracy's
supposed
to
do
and
debate
the
hard
things.
B
So
I'm
calling
on
the
legislature-
and
I
will
be
calling
them
later
if
we
have
time
to
talk
about
other
things,
you
can
certainly
find
time
on
your
calendar
to
put
things
in
place
that
make
sure
we
don't
have
another
dante
right,
laying
on
the
streets
of
brooklyn
center
or
any
community
in
this
state
or
this
country.
So
those
are
things
that
we
can
do.
Those
are
things
that
shouldn't
be
asking
that
much.
B
So
our
commitment
with
this
group
of
folks
that's
here,
is
to
create
a
safe
place
for
the
community
to
have
that
conversation
to
express
what
they
want
to
see
has
changed
and
then
an
expectation
that
our
lawful
system
in
our
democracy
will
at
least
have
the
common
decency
to
have
a
discussion
on
this
and
to
put
things
forward
that
we
know
will
make
a
difference.
Those
are
the
things
that
we
can
do.
B
I
spoke
not
more
than
several
weeks
ago
from
the
old
high
school
I
used
to
teach
at
in
in
mankato
a
place
that
60
years
ago,
martin
luther
king
jr
spoke
at,
and
that
was
at
a
time
when
he
was
also
calling
us.
We
can
either
come
together
and
fix
this,
or
we
can
suffer
together
as
fools,
and
we
can
continue
to
make
this
happen.
Our
time
was
made
clear
last
may
in
minnesota
our
time
to
get
one
shot
at
fixing.
B
It
was
there
and
in
the
midst
of
this
trial,
that's
the
world's
watching
the
situation
repeated
itself
yesterday.
So
this
is
a
call
to
us
again
to
minnesota
and
to
the
rest
of
the
nation.
We
have
the
ability
to
reduce
the
chance
of
this
happening.
We
have
the
ability
to
put
things
into
place
to
make
a
difference
and
we
have
the
ability
to
hold
two
things.
At
the
same
time,
the
ability
to
create
a
space
for
peaceful
protest
and
a
no
tolerance
for
those
who
wish
to
do
harm
or
do
destruction.
B
Those
things
can
happen
together.
So
I'm
grateful
for
the
folks
who
are
here
today.
This
has
been
many
months
in
the
making.
There
is
a
level
of
coordination
amongst
law
enforcement
agency
and
community
never
before
seen
in
minnesota,
but
I'm
telling
you-
and
you
saw
it
yesterday
until
we
make
the
proactive
change
to
do
the
things
to
prevent
it.
B
Continuing
to
stand
up.
Organizations
like
we've
done
here
to
put
out
the
fire
after
it's
been
lit,
will
simply
not
work.
So
we
can
do
this
together.
We
can
create
the
peaceful
space
we
can,
let
justice
be
held
in
the
shavon
trial
and
we
can
come
together
and
demand
that
those
who
are
in
elected
positions
and
who
can
make
a
difference
are
willing
to
listen
and
willing
to
make
those
changes.
B
C
C
So
for
our
black
communities
in
particular,
I
know
the
effects
of
the
last
12
months
have
been
just
a
torrential
floodgate
of
all
of
the
pain
that
have
been
felt
in
many
cases
for
hundreds
and
hundreds
of
years,
and
there's
no
playbook
for
the
rawness
for
the
emotion
that
that
people
throughout
our
city
and
our
state
are
experiencing
right
now
and
I'll.
Tell
you
mayor,
elliott,
chief
arredondo,
the
governor
mayor
carter,
and
I
we
are
united,
that
this
anguish
that
we're
all
suffering
cannot
translate
into
violence.
C
The
anguish
we
are
suffering
cannot
translate
into
violence,
destroying
livelihoods,
destroying
locally
owned
businesses
that
our
communities
have
poured
their
hearts
and
soul
into
for
decades,
and
the
unraveling
of
the
sacrifices
that
people
have
made
for
for
so
long.
That
cannot
that
will
not
be
tolerated.
We
must
see
peace
tonight
and,
as
of
this
afternoon,
I
have
declared
a
state
of
emergency
in
the
city
of
minneapolis
and
we
are
following
that
up
with
a
curfew
that
will
begin
at
7
pm
tonight,
we'll
go
until
6
a.m.
C
C
C
C
D
D
D
We
are
mourning
dante
right
and
it
comes
at
a
hard
time
because
we're
still
mourning
george
floyd
we're
still
waiting
for
justice
for
george
floyd,
we're
still
mourning
philando
castile,
we're
still
mourning
so
many
people
in
our
city
in
our
state,
in
our
community,
in
our
country,
we're
mourning
so
many
people,
and
we
shouldn't
have
to
do
that
anymore,
and
so
we
stand
here
today
with
a
few
truths
that
are
all
true.
At
the
same
time,
we
don't
have
to
choose
it's
true
that
george
floyd
should
still
be
alive.
D
It's
true
that
there
is
just
no
justification
for
us
losing
dante
wright
yesterday.
It's
true
that
those
responsible
for
these
deaths
must
be
held
accountable
for
their
deaths.
It's
true
that
you
cannot
honor
the
memory
of
george
floyd.
You
cannot
honor
the
memory
of
dante
wright
by
wreaking
havoc
in
the
communities
and
the
neighborhoods
that
they
called
home.
D
We
are
tasked-
and
I'm
not
just
talking
about
the
governor-
and
I
I'm
not
just
talking
about
mayor
fry
and
I'm
not
even
just
talking
about
the
law
enforcement
leaders
who
are
here.
We
are
tasked
our
community
members,
our
legislatures,
our
city,
council
members,
our
police
officers,
our
community
members,
our
business
community,
our
advocates
our
students,
our
youth,
all
of
us
together,
are
tasked
with
navigating
those
truths.
D
We
have
been
preparing
to
ramp
up
for
the
close
of
the
chauvin
trial
and
we
are
prepared
to
ramp
up
law
enforcement
presence
across
saint
paul
and
across
the
twin
cities,
but
just
ramping
up
law
enforcement
presence,
just
getting
officers
to
the
scene
over
and
over
and
over
again
after
something
horrible
after
something
unspeakable.
After
something
tragic
happens
in
our
community
to
our
youth,
just
will
not
suffice.
D
D
D
We
have
to
know
that
the
first
law
of
motion
is
that
objects
in
motion
will
remain
in
motion
until
some
force
stops
it
from
happening,
and
so
when
we
recognize
this
strong,
horrific
trend
that
keeps
happening
over
and
over
and
over
again,
we
have
to
know
that
dante
wright
will
not
be.
The
last
name
will
not
be
the
last
hashtag
on
this
list
until
and
unless
we
take
decisive
and
urgent
action
to
ensure
that
he
is
we're
watching
the
world
is
watching
the
chauvin
trial.
D
We
lament
what
happened
yesterday
and
any
one
of
us
with
children
or
parents
or
cousins
or
siblings,
who
we
love,
know
that
there's
probably
no
such
thing
as
justice,
there's,
probably
no
such
thing
as
being
made
whole
for
what
they
lost
for
who
they
lost
for
the
future
they
lost
for
the
future.
We
all
lost
yesterday
for
the
potential
we
all
lost
yesterday.
D
But
if
we're
going
to
do
something-
and
I
would
say
we
have
to
do
something,
it's
committing
ourselves
to
letting
his
name
be
the
last
one
on
our
list.
We
have
to
ask
ourselves
questions
like
why,
when
we
see
this,
that
looks
like
a
horrible,
horrible,
terrible
mistake,
we
have
to
ask
ourselves
questions
like:
why
do
we
even
have
tasers
that
operate
and
function
and
feel
and
deploy
exactly
like
a
firearm?
D
D
B
They
must
happen
on
the
streets.
They
certainly
must
happen
in
the
state
legislature
and
we
need
to
create
the
safe
space
for
where
that
can
happen.
But
for
those
who
choose
to
go
out
and
as
mayor
carter
said
to
exploit
these
tragedies
for
destruction
or
personal
gain,
you
can
rest
assured
that
the
largest
police
presidents
in
minnesota,
history
and
coordination
will
be
prepared.
You
will
be
arrested,
you
will
be
charged
and
there
will
be
consequences
for
those
actions.
It's
not
debatable.
B
B
I
encourage
those
that
are
out
expressing
their
views
peacefully
to
take
every
advantage
of
that
in
every
space
they
deem
necessary
and
safe
to
do
so,
but
understand
that
in
the
moment
we're
in
we
need
to
enforce
the
curfew,
starting
at
7
pm
tonight,
till
6
a.m
tomorrow,
and
we
will
have
further
guidance
as
the
days
go
on
so
minnesotans.
This
is
our
moment.
E
B
F
B
Yeah,
I
I
think
the
idea
of
routine
traffic
stops
being
a
heavily
armed
situation,
and
one
that
this
was
a
apparently
in
a
pirate
expired
tabs
that
I
think
these
conversations
about
the
changing
culture,
the
change
that
we
do
policing
those
types
of
things
and,
of
course
this
is
obviously
one
that
will
be
discussed
amongst
the
folks
that
are
here,
obviously
a
training
situation.
As
you
heard
mayor
carter,
say,
the
idea
that
you
could
interchange
the
two
even
in
the
the
euphemism
of
the
fog
of
war,
simply
can't
happen.
B
So
those
are
things
that
need
to
be
discussed.
I'm
probably
most
disappointed
in
that
much
of
this
starts
much
younger,
whether
it
be
reforms
in
juvenile
justice.
We
still
shackle
youth
in
our
in
our
systems.
We
ask
for
some
of
those
changes.
Those
things
have
not
even
been
given
the
courtesy
of
a
hearing,
so
I
think,
with
the
community.
That's
here
the
community
in
the
state
that
the
process
of
the
discussion
around
these
things.
What
comes
out
of
that?
B
The
specific
calls
to
fix
some
of
these
things
are
things
that
they
can
work
out,
things
that
we've
seen
work
elsewhere
and,
as
I
said
just
like
in
may,
these
were
things
we
agreed
upon
from
community
activists
to
law
enforcement
professionals
that
made
a
difference
and
some
of
the
changes
we
made
to
the
post
board
some
of
the
things
that
our
expectations
were
around
training.
So,
I
would
just
say:
there's
numerous
things
out
there.
B
There's
the
specifics
can
come
out
of
that
discussion,
but
just
to
be
very
clear,
there
is
no
intention,
as
we
stand
here
today,
of
having
a
single
hearing
on
a
single
thing
to
change
this
and
that's
simply
not
acceptable.
There
are
smart
people
over
there
we
can
get
together.
We
can
work
the
way,
the
system's
supposed
to
work
and
there's
things
that
they
can
put
out
with
that
question.
F
G
G
We
did
not
ask
the
twins
to
not
hold
their
games.
We
did
advise
some
major
businesses,
churches
and
community
organizations
about
the
curfew.
However,
and
I
think
many
organizations
made
the
decision
that,
if
their,
if
their
game
or
their
business,
would
conflict
with
the
curfew,
they
made
their
own
decisions
as
to
whether
or
not
it
was
prudent
to
put
their
customers
out
at
a
time
when
being
out
for
recreation
would
not
be
one
of
those
exempted.
E
G
So
the
question
is,
is
why
an
earlier
curfew-
and
the
answer
to
that
is
that
our
experience
with
curfews
have
been
that
if
we
start
the
curfew
after
dark,
they
are
much
more
difficult
to
to
have
them
work
properly.
And
so
we
looked
at
what
time
sunset
would
be,
which
is
about
eight
o'clock
tonight,
and
we
wanted
to
have
a
time
to
give
ourselves
enough
time
to
have
the
curfew
going
into
effect
during
still
hours
of
daylight,
rather
than
to
do
it
after
dark.
And
that
was
done
before
we
knew
about
the
vigil.
G
H
G
So
our
response
to
that
is
the
west
metro,
command
team,
mobilized
to
stop
damage
to
property
windows
being
broken
and
rocks
being
thrown
at
officers
and
that
they
used
chemical
munitions.
As
I
understand
it,
to
try
and
move
the
crowd
back
farther
away
so
that
the
officers
would
take
less
rocks
and
less
projectiles
and
there
would
be
less
damage
to
the
to
the
building.
G
G
That
protest
came
upon
us
frankly
by
surprise,
I'm
not
completely
by
surprise.
We
were
expecting
the
group
that
had
protested
at
the
crime
scene
to
continue
to
protest,
but
the
size
of
the
group
and
the
intent
of
the
group
took,
I
think,
the
command
staff
at
brooklyn
center
police
department
by
surprise
and
that
triggered
the
response
that
you
saw.
G
I
can't
answer
that
question
because
I'm
not
I
don't
know
enough
about
where
the
vigil
is
and
I'd
love
to
be
able
to
have
a
chance
to
have
a
conversation
with
the
folks
that
are
organizing
the
vigil
one
of
the
things
that
we
have
already
done.
Is
we've
begun
reaching
out
to
clergy,
to
rabbis
and
to
pastors
and
to
priests,
and
to
your
moms
to
say:
please
invite
folks
that
are
in
pain.
Please
invite
folks
that
need
to
have
have
a
vehicle
and
a
place
for
them
to
express
their
their
grief
and
their
sympathies.
I
Last
may,
a
lot
of
business
owners
felt
the
need
to
protect
their
businesses.
A
lot
of
neighborhood
groups.
The
neighborhood
watch
started
patrolling
their
own
streets.
What's
your
message
to
these
groups,
who
may
feel
the
need,
after
7pm
tonight,
to
go
out
and
walk
their
neighborhood,
protect
their
business
run?
Should
they
be
concerned
about
the
curfew.
G
We
have
already
been
working
with
many
of
them,
for
example,
in
little
earth
and
other
places
the
black
churches,
to
make
sure
that
officers
have
prior
knowledge
of
what
they
will
likely
see
and
therefore
will
respond
effectively
and
respectfully
to
those
folks
who
are
there
simply
to
help
us
keep
the
peace,
because
that's
really
what
I
see
their
mission.
As
I
don't
see
their
mission
as
conflicting
with
ours.
I
see
their
mission
as
once
again
there's
a
communal
effort
to
try
and
keep
the
peace.
G
I
can
tell
you
that,
as
I
looked
at
some
of
the
young
african-american
latinx
and
asian
business
owners,
whose
businesses
were
broken
into
and
looted
last
night,
they
looked
like
they
were
in
in
need
of
help
and-
and
we
were
happy
to
be
able
to
try
and
provide
that
help.
I'd
like
to
get
it
there
faster.
G
We
were
able
to
mobilize
efforts
to
get
to
lake
street
and
get
to
broadway
and
to
get
to
shingle
creek
to
make
sure
that
we
could
stop
the
looting
from
happening,
because
we
know
that
those
businesses,
though
those
are
people
that
they
may
look
at
just
like
a
store
with
shoes
or
a
store
with
liquor
or
a
store
with
phones
and
but
for
many
people.
That's
their
life's
work,
that's
their
life,
saving,
that's
that's
their
future
and
that's
their
fortune.
F
G
So
so,
just
in
very
brief,
I
want
to
say
thank
you
to
both
the
mayors
and
to
the
governor
for
issuing
the
curfew.
I've
been
talking
to
law
enforcement,
public
safety
sheriffs
most
of
last
night,
and
almost
all
of
today.
Talking
about
what
can
we
do
to
keep
the
peace
that
has
been
the
topic
of
conversation?
We
have
also
started
out
our
conversation
today.
We
had
over
300
sheriffs
and
police
departments,
police
chiefs
on
a
call
with
us.
We
started
out
with
that
conversation
by
saying.
G
First
thing
we
want
you
to
do
is
to
talk
to
your
community
reach
out
to
your
community,
so
that
you
know
what's
going
on
so
that
you
have
a
vehicle
for
conversation
and
communication,
so
that
you
know
that
you
know
that
they
know
what
you're
going
to
do
and-
and
you
know
what
their
plans
are,
so
that
communication
piece
has
already
started.
It
continues
here.
I'm
happy
to
be
here
today,
I'm
not
happy
because
of
the
cause
of
this
press
conference,
but
I
am
happy
that
this
is
a
vehicle
for
getting
that
message
out.
G
Even
broader.
We
need
to
have
community
help
us
keep
the
peace
and,
and
one
of
the
ways
they
can
do
this
and
we've
seen
in
the
past,
is
by
coming
together
in
safe
and
lawful
places
like
churches
and
synagogues
and
community
centers.
It
is
in
that
kind
of
gathering
where
we
really
do
believe
their
first.
Human
rights
can
be
heard,
and
yet
they
can
also
be
kept
physically
safe,
and
that,
I
think,
is
an
important
component
of
that.
G
We
believe
the
curfew
is
important,
because
it's
also
an
effective
deterrent
for
for
those
folks
that
think
they
can
just
go
out
and
break
into
somebody's.
You
know
family,
business
and
and
and
wreak
havoc.
We
want
them
to
know
that
the
police
will
be
looking
tonight
for
them
and
that,
with
smaller
crowds
out
in
the
streets,
it
will
make
it
simpler
and
easier
for
us
to
identify
those
bad
actors
who
are
out
there
to
create
damage
and
to
steal
other
people's
hard-earned
work.
G
Recognizing
that
not
everybody,
that's
going
to
be
out
is
in
fact
a
bad
actor
that
many
of
those
people
are
in
fact
going
to
be
coming
home
from
work
or
going
to
work
or
taking
care
of
a
loved
one
that
has
to
have
medicine.
We
recognize
that,
so
we
recognize
that
the
media
will
be
out
covering
in
that.
We
want
to
make
sure
that
the
media
is
handled
respectfully
and
treat
it
with
respect
and
dignity.
As
your
service
also
dictates,
you
will
see
significant
resources
out
today.
G
You
will
see
even
more
of
those
folks
out
tonight.
We
have
continued
our
mobilization
overnight
and
you
will
see
literally
hundreds
and
hundreds
of
uniform
individuals
out
with
a
very
simple
mission:
keep
the
peace,
protect
people's
constitutional
rights
and
to
do
it
with
dignity
and
respect,
and
with
that
I
will
turn
it
over
to
the
chief
of
the
minneapolis
police
department,
miranda,
moran
rondo.
J
J
Previously
the
planning
was
for
phase
three
to
start
during,
as
the
jury
starts,
to
meet
to
to
look
at
deciding
a
verdict.
We
are
now
officially
into
phase
three.
So,
as
commissioner
harrington
said,
what
does
that
mean
for
our
communities
out
there
they're
going
to
see
more
of
our
men
and
women
in
uniform
more
of
our
citizen
soldiers,
helping
to
keep
our
our
cities
in
our
metro
region.
Safe.
J
J
Please
encourage
our
young
people
that
they
must
be
in
at
7
00
pm
tonight,
and
that
goes
until
6
a.m
tomorrow
morning,
but
please,
whether
that's
picking
up
the
telephone,
whether
that's
getting
on
your
preferred
social
media
platform,
but
please
encourage
as
much
as
we
can
get
the
message
out
there
as
much
as
you
can
influence
and
have
an
influence
on
our
young
people.
Please
encourage
them
to
do
so
again.
We
hold
two
truths.
J
We
need
to
continue
to
make
sure
that
all
of
those
who
wish
to
peacefully
demonstrate
and
gather
that
they
are
doing
that
and
their
first
amendment
rights
are
upheld,
and
all
of
us
here
are
have
taken
a
constitutional
oath
to
protect
that.
But
the
other
truth
is
is
exactly
that.
We
cannot
re-traumatize
our
communities
that
have
been
hurt
so
much
and
so
for
those
individuals
who
may
think
that
they
are
going
to
go
into
our
communities
and
cause
harm
to
destroy
property
to
commit
crimes.
J
You
will
be
held
accountable
and
you
will
be
arrested
minneapolis
at
least
right
now.
The
numbers
that
I
have
as
an
estimate,
25
to
30
arrests
were
made
last
night
and
again
that's
to
hold
folks
accountable,
and
so
we
want
to
keep
our
city
safe.
We
want
to
keep
our
community
safe
and
with
that,
I'm
going
to
turn
it
over
to
sheriff
hutchinson.
K
Hello,
everybody,
I'm
sheriff
dave
hutchinson
from
hanema
county.
Thank
you
first,
I
want
to
say
what
happened
yesterday
is
obviously
very
troubling
for
law
enforcement
struggling
for
ourselves
in
this
profession
the
last
year
and
a
half
has
not
been
good
for
this
profession
locally.
We
need
to
do
better.
My
goal
here
work
with
my
partners
to
make
it
better.
We
need
to
invest
in
better
public
safety,
so
we're
never
here
again.
K
This
is
a
tough
time
for
all
of
us
and
mr
right,
every
life
is
sacred.
His
life
is
sacred
and
for
us
we're
very
deeply
saddened
by
that.
But
again,
as
people
have
said,
we
can't
allow
what
happened
last
year
with
the
unrest
to
affect
our
businesses
and
affect
their
livelihood
throughout
the
county
and
the
state.
We
need
to
do
better
and
doing
better,
not
only
for
law
enforcement,
but
as
society
is
to
be
better
partners,
so
we
can
effectively
police
fairly
and
partially
and
again
just
be
better.
K
Every
single
day
my
agency
tries
to
do
better
every
single
day.
We
have
a
lot
on
our
platform
county
sheriff's
office
with
the
court
proceedings.
Those
will
go
on
as
scheduled.
The
court
process
will
go
on
a
schedule
because
again
we
need
justice
for
peace
and
we
need
peace
for
justice
and
through
this,
isn't
that
happened
yesterday.
K
L
L
About
the
time
of
closing
arguments.
Yesterday's
incident
in
brooklyn
center
triggered
the
need
to
move
faster
into
phase
three
for
reasons
that
are
similar
but
different
at
the
same
time,
from
what
happened
with
their
planning
effort
on
operation
safety
net,
and
so
yesterday
we
fortunately
had
about
80
state
troopers
from
across
minnesota.
Already
in
town,
we
kept
them
in
town.
L
That
chief
rondo
pointed
out
that
we
encourage
people
to
exercise
their
first
amendment
right,
but
we
are
prohibiting
the
destruction
and
the
dangerous
activity,
some
of
which
we
saw
last
night.
And
so
the
last
thing
I'll
just
say
is
you
will
see
those
resources
and
there's
been
much
talk
of
enforcement
and
believe
me
we're
ready
to
do
the
enforcement,
but
it
comes
with
an
ask
too,
because
I
think
minnesotans
are
good
people.
We
need
help,
and
I've
said
that
before
and
I'll
say
it
again.
In
this
moment
we
need
help.
L
We
need
help
from
minnesotans
to
help
encourage
us
to
have
people
obey
the
curfew,
order
to
stay
home
to
give
some
space
to
get
through
today
tonight
peacefully,
and
if
we
can
do
that,
it
will
help
set
the
stage
for
a
much
better
week,
a
much
better
month
and
a
much
better
year
as
we
do.
All
of
the
other
things
that
other
leaders
have
expressed
are
necessary
in
our
state.
With
that,
I
will
introduce
the
general
the
adjunct,
general
of
minnesota
national
guard
general
menke.
M
M
We
anticipate
this
number
will
grow
to
over
a
thousand
by
the
end
of
the
day,
as
we
click
quickly
accelerate
our
manning
levels.
To
achieve
our
phase
three
manning
levels,
additional
garden
guardsmen
will
be
placed
in
staging
areas
until
they
are
assigned
specific
missions
and
shift
rotations
based
on
conditions
and
the
needs
on
the
ground.
M
There
have
been
rumors
that
the
minnesota
national
guard
has
used
non-lethal
munitions
in
and
around
minneapolis-st
paul.
I
want
to
tell
you
that
that
is
simply
not
true.
We
have
not
used
those,
we
don't
anticipate
using
those
and
we
did
not
use
those
in
any
of
the
civil
unrest
support
that
we've
provided
over
the
last
year.
M
H
G
The
question
is:
can
I
give
you
an
update
on
the
shooting
itself
and
it?
I
cannot
give
you
the
name,
because
I
do
not
believe
that
has
been
released
publicly
to
my
knowledge
as
best.
I
understand
it
shortly
after
2
p.m.
Yesterday,
brooklyn
center
officers
initiated
a
traffic
stop
based
on
what
I
understand
was
either
equipment
and
or
license
plate
violations.
G
G
Generally
speaking
in
any
criminal
investigation,
you
would
like
to
have
as
little
information
made
public
until
you
have
all
of
your
witnesses
interviewed,
because
you
don't
want
the
footage
that
would
be
played
over
the
media
to
influence
or
color
testimony
that
we
would
take
from
witnesses.
We
recognize
that
in
the
state
law
around
body
cams
that
the
chief
of
police
cleo
may
release
the
body
cam
footage
if
they
believe
that
it
is
in
the
interest
of
justice
or
to
dispel
rumors
or
to
quell
a
riotous
type
situations.
G
E
K
G
So
the
question
is:
what
can
I
tell
you
about
the
traffic
stop
and
I
can't
tell
you
a
whole
lot.
Unfortunately,
the
investigation
is
still
in
its
early
stages,
and
I
can't
give
you
much
more
than
what
I
have
told
you,
which
is
largely
drawn
from
the
brooklyn
center
police
department's
press
release,
where
I
believe
they
said
it
was
related
to
a
license.
Plate
infraction
was
was
what
they
were
making
the
stop
over.
I
don't
know
anything
about
the
issue
around
tent
or
anything
else.
Commissioner,
two
quick
questions:
how
common
are.
F
You
agree
with
the
governor
that
one
of
the
things
the
legislature
could
do
is
pay
for
mandate
better
training,
especially
in
these
cases
where
there
is
overwhelming
armed
response
to
a
routine
traffic.
Stop
did
that
contribute
to
this,
along
with
the
fact
that
the
suspect
also
resisted
arrest.
Does
that
need
to
be
a
part
of
this
as
well.
G
I
think
you're
overstating
well.
Your
question
is
whether
training
as
the
governor
outlined
it
was
an
appropriate
remedy
for
this,
and
as
an
old
training
director,
I
would
say,
training
is,
is
very
much
necessary
as
we
change
behaviors
and
change
law
and
we
have
to
train
our
officers
and
from
what.
From
my
recollection,
it
takes
a
lot
of
repetitions
to
train
officers,
and
we
have
lots
of
more
training
to
do.
G
We
have
continued
working
with
the
chiefs
of
police
association,
the
sheriff's
association,
who
have
asked
for
additional
training
to
make
sure
that
officers
are
well
trained
and
I'm
not
sure
that
I
can
answer
the
second
part
of
your
your
question.
It's
a
little
more
hypothetical
than
I
feel
like
I'm
comfortable,
answering.
F
G
G
That
is
a
that's
an
option
that
I've
heard
from
other
chiefs
from
other
parts
of
the
country,
but
having
traffic
law
enforcement
done
by
whether
it's
the
state,
patrol
or
local
law
enforcement
is
a
dates
back
to
when
motor
vehicles
first
went
on
the
road.
So
are
there
ways
to
train
better
so
that
these
kind
of
tragedies
happen
as
infrequently
as
possible?
G
Yes,
is
there
a
way
to
absolutely
prevent
it
from
ever
happening
again,
engaged
when
a
case
where
someone
is
resisting
arrest,
I'd
like
to
think
that
there
are
better
tools
and
better
methods
out
there,
and
I
think
that
is
going
to
be
one
of
the
things
I
think
the
governor
is
asking
the
state
legislature
to
do
it's.
One
of
the
things
that
I
and
my
other
folks
that
are
in
the
public
safety
arena
are
asking
ourselves.
