Small business owners say they're pressured to hire off-duty MPD cops for security - Minnesota Reformer

Small business owners — particularly immigrant owned — say they've been pressured by police to hire off-duty officers to provide security.

Minneapolis probably has the most corrupt police force in the entire country. Jesus Christ.

Insane fact I learned from this article: Derek Chauvin and George Floyd were "coworkers" at the same club and almost certainly knew each other personally. Derek Chauvin being the police designated security the club owner was forced to hire and George Floyd being a bouncer.

    it's wild to me that hiring pigs, on the clock and everything, is a thing in america
    here if you hire the bacon they have to be out of uniform and shit, don't have the baton, cs spray, taser, etc.

    Wow. This is just insane. I mean, I am well aware that police are very much like a mob or cartel. But hearing unmitigated proof is crazy.
