PerfectChaosZ 05/29/20 2:35:46 PM #44:	The cop was let go and went to his house after video proof of him murdering a man for no reason. They dont need a year to faf around. Would anyone they were going to charge with murder be allowed to just go home? No, they would be held. They werent going to do anything to him before the protest. No peaceful protest in all of human history has ever made a difference.
