'If you are talking about the incident in MN, I didn't see anything unreasonable,' the mayor of Petal, Mississippi, tweeted.
Minneapolis mayor calls for peace amid protests, fires, looting and anger erupt after George Floyd's death
"I've seen too many cases before where the police were judged to be guilty in the public's eye but later were found to be not guilty under the law," he said."For sending that, all of a sudden I'm called racist, I need to have a knee put on my neck – all kinds of hateful stuff simply for having an opinion and asking people to get all the facts before they judge."
"To hear that statement made by a mayor or anybody is very troubling," he said."What we saw was disgusting on the part of the officer. It leaves me with mixed emotions. Believing and thinking that we have not gone far enough in this day and time with social media and all that kind of stuff – nobody should condone that. Everybody should condemn it, including the mayor. Skin color had nothing to do with it.
