A Minneapolis cop is under fire for pointing an assault rifle at the son of a U.S. Congressman on Thursday.
Twitter.com user Wintana Melekin tweeted the photo showing a cop pointing his rifle at Jeremiah Ellison, the son of U.S. Represensative Keith Ellison.
Ellison was peacefully protesting outside a Minneapolis police precinct at the time.
“Disturbing photo of @MinneapolisPD ready to shoot US Rep @keithellison son. @MayorHodges save your city! #Jamarclark,” she tweeted.
Ellison and others were protesting the recent police shooting of Jamar Clark, an unarmed black man, who was killed near the Minneapolis Police precinct.
In a now familiar pose, Ellison was standing with his hands up — a gesture that has come to symbolize the Black Lives Matter activist movement.
Keith Ellison expressed his anguish at seeing his son nearly gunned down in the shocking photo.
“Photo is agonizing for me to see. My son is PEACEFULLY protesting w/ hands up; officer is shouldering gun. Why?” Rep. Ellison tweeted.
That officer probably tight somewhere.. pointed that gun at the wrong one. I hope Ellison gets that arse fired. This is a shame. I’m tired of still having to address this in our time and age. Smh.
Sad
Okay this is news because his father is a congressman…..What about kids that parents don’t hold a seat as an elective official… and are gunned down..did he care then..never hurts until it hits home.
#alllivesmatter
More of the same…
Jesus
We gotta “fix” this issue before we can move forward in helping other countries move in. This give me THE CHIILLS. It’s looks like he want blow this mans head clean off his body.
Keith Ellison expressed his anguish at seeing his son nearly gunned down in the shocking photo..
I can see your anger, but you do know this been happening to other young men across this country….no, oh
how are you love today
I’m not sure. Rash of stories lately bringing light to situation says it may have been news regardless.
And they were protesting an unarmed police shooting that was news. A dude whose folks were not famous.
All lives do matter. His shouldn’t be discounted or downplayed bc his father IS a Congressman tho.
He is aware.
2013.
As cities across the nation held vigils and rallies in remembrance of Trayvon Martin Saturday, U.S. Rep. Keith Ellison spoke at the Minneapolis gathering at the federal courthouse downtown.
He cared then.

Press Release
WASHINGTON—Rep. Keith Ellison (D-MN) released the following statement today after a grand jury announced they would not indict Officer Darren Wilson for the shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri.
“Once the news trucks have left St. Louis and the city of Ferguson is calm, a family will still be without their son,” Rep. Ellison said. “Michael Brown’s family will always mourn the senseless shooting of their child – a shooting which should never have taken place. I understand the anger and fear that many in Ferguson and around the country must feel, but all must remain peaceful. Protest injustice, but do not meet violence with violence. I urge the federal government to continue its investigation of Michael Brown’s shooting. The fight for equality is not over. We have tremendous work to do
Chile come through with the education…
Pretty good today … hanging in there …. How you doing bew !!!
It’s so 80’s. Ugh..what next Reagan and another drug war “faints”
Thank you Jesus for these receipts …. cause this post could have went left quick
ummm who are you? not being rude just trying to see if you my bewski with a new name.
ready to go home, waiting to get back to the A , holiday time lol
Absolutely! You should always take care of home first.
The only time it seems like Keith Ellison had to not be down for the cause…he had to drop Trayvon bill that HE advocated for and introduced. But only bc he was pressured by others in his party to do so. Said it wasn’t a good time. And really it’s no need to push through if you not gonna have the support of other Dems. Who gonna vote for it? That is chalked up to red tape bureaucracy BS. So I’m not holding that against him.
But don’t sit up here and try to be like Ellison is out of touch. He is actually one of the FEW that is IN touch in Congress.
Not just here. Other places were like well what has HE done? A lot actually.
I feel ya … nothing like home …. It’s suppose to get cold this weekend …. bout time chile … ugh … you can get sick off this weather lawd
glad to know, always keep me in the loop
That cop feared for his life…the black guy wasnt playing a sport or throwing up gang signs.
It’s me!!!!!! I spoke to ya this morning. I was like she don’t know it’s me?
HEY BABE in my Orleans voice
And would have. I had to steer it back. Like Ellison one of the good ones nah?
Like Toya Wright?
Yep.. You know I don’t talk to strangers. I’m trying to overcome my blog PTSD

Sybil
Yesterday a judge ordered the Chicago PD to release the footage of them shooting a boy 16 times as he was WALKING AWAY. They must release by the 25th. He was accused of slashing tires. I think they did find a small pocket knife on him (allegedly). The officer initially claimed he was “in fear of his life, but clearly that wasn’t the case. I believe this was the story where it took place near a Burger King and after the shooting, they went inside the restaurant, got the footage and erased most of it. But they had dashcam video of it also and they fought so hard to keep that video under wraps. They even offered his mom a 5 million dollar settlement BEFORE SHE EVEN FILED A LAWSUIT, so you know whatever is on that video is disturbing.
Thnx! I’m a do better…
Completely understand…it was just the head liner that got me
I wonder what that Faux News ho gon say about this pic. Is she still gon tell the peaceful protesters to go back to class, go back to work, etc???
We got ya !!!!
Harris made me so mad. So mad.
I think they should release footage but not now. Wait until AFTER THE TRIAL. So they can go to jail!!!!
MURDERS!
Sandra removed this $h!t!!!!! and block this person NOW!!! These scum trolls are obsessed with us.. smdh
And then here you go
?
bawhahahahah rofl … why I just bust out laughing … hilarious lol
Ditto
LMAO !!!!! Chile hilarious
The sad thing about these unarmed killings is that their perception of blacks, particularly men, will NEVER change. They will ALWAYS find a way to paint them in a bad light and justify their slaughtering actions.
He could stand there buck arse naked and they would still point a gun at him. His skin color is reason enough.
I hope Sandra pay attention to this flag hell … been flagging logins left and right ….
Witness tampering too ???
It gets tiring trying to ignore it, so hopefully she does.
She must got fat fingers like me OR need glasses!
?Creamy
Don’t it get hard
Idk, but it’s too late now.
Exactly, and it’s a damn shame. We should NEVER have to worry about our Black boys and men walking out the front door and being gunned down by anyone, especially those sworn and paid to “protect & serve”
His cronies are like………Dammit, Buck!! Didn’t we tell you to be careful? They are getting smart and putting good folks in the midst. You may be on your own with this one. We’ll have Charlie create you a GoFundMe Account!!” SMH
I think judge said release by next Wednesday correct?
I think will mess up the jury
See its called satire. I be careful about who you call scum.
So some loser couldn’t find other loser type shatt to do on a Friday afternoon, I see.
Studies show: Losers are typically wonderful multi-taskers, so unfortunately they accomplish a bus load of loserish stuff during the course of a day. LE SIGH
Be careful who I call scum?? GTFOH! What are you going to do?? Attack me with your keyboard?? Lmaooo
Oooommmhhhh Muh God….
Have ya’ll seen Plies Sweet P***y Pie?!?!?
Tyga & Kylie broke up… Stevie Wonder saw that coming…
WHo?
*looks at you like the baby in your gravi*
Lololol Coco having a special moment hell … I just had one myself lmao !!! Sometimes I draw a blank chile
In a now familiar pose, Ellison was standing with his hands up — a gesture that has come to symbolize the Black Lives Matter activist movement.
^^ Why does it all have to be about black lives matter? I see how the media is trying to make this a trend/ this is real life, maybe the gesture has come to symbolize… “mafugga PLEASE dont shoot me”
+1
Wusah !!!!! You need my football Gif …… lmao
You stay fuggin’ some shyt up Coco. What the heck going on?
Or…….”Do you and everybody around see that my hands are EMPTY?!”
Take care Ron…we all flagged yo azz….
Take care…until u come with a new log in… zzzzz
Lol @ jenie at her keyboard rebuking demons and flagging comments like….. http://sandrarose.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_duel.gif
lolololol
…
You mean, he gave up custody?
?? the darker the skin the bigger the threat (in their mind)
exactly…. they think protesters got their hands up for fun, because ‘black lives matter’ has become a joke to many……NAH protesters have their hands up because they are protesting the fact that SOOOO many other unarmed folk were visually assessed, deemed a threat and extinguished……
*dead*
I watched a video this morning that echoed the same sentiments. I just resolved that the race relations in this country are far too damaged to be repaired.
NEW POST
Sad but unfortunately true. It’s seems things are definitely going backwards In the world the fact that we have to have sit ins in 2015 is a sad reminder of this
bawhahahahahah !!!!!
I flagged twice…for good measure!!
Or the state decided he was unfit aka Kris learned he had no more money or fame, so his rights were revoked.
AND JUST WHEN YOU THOUGHT YOU COULD POINT YOUR GUN AT ANYBODY…FAIL
THIS IS HOW I SAW YOU STEERING IT BACK TEEHEHE
MARTIAL LAW/POLICE STATE…WAIT FOR IT
Kylie and her old face!
Its Friday I’m high and I ain’t got chyt to do
Yeeesss!!! LMBO!
Cries……why DTTS, why me
…
U shouldn’t laff at your fellow ATL fam…..:(((
Nope its that chyt I said I need to stop smoking, something gotta do with wax, …lol
Exactly, cops looking for retirements. All we are PEACEFULLY asking for is the multiple videos of the shooting. They’d rather respond with paramilitary force.
I hope that the cop is fired.
Can I get high too?
Bawhahahahah lolol !!!
wails
yep, lol, come on thru I got you
Mr. Ellison, Sir, do you comment when it’s any other black male, peacefully protesting with a gun in their face? Just asking, no pun intended.
The cop is clearly trying to menace and intimidate. He won’t be able to get away with that at the Burger King drive-thru window.
Too bad there are no more Blackstone Rangers or the least of that cop’s worries would be getting fired.
Are you stupid or what? It is only when people who can get headlines and do so that attention gets focussed on the issue. Nobody cares when John Q Blackman or Jose V Latinman gets mistreated by cops. It is only when somebody gets video of the victim or is the son or daughter of a prominent person that things start to happen.
What hiring practices or policies have allowed these abusive and hateful types to be hired over and over again. There can’t be peace until there is real accountability for those who dead set on murdering people of color.
They shouldn’t be protesting at a police station.
They know these cops are just waiting to make a mistake.
“you done messed with the wrong nigg@”
lol
Her old face was better looking.
Join the club. There is always someones son/daughter in that position often. Why did it take his kid to get the higher ups to notice
How broke is the Minneapolis police department that they carry machine guns while riding Huffy’s?
SMH!
???.
Big Mistake Dummy
Black men point guns at each other all the time. Is this #blackmalekarma
#mybrotherskeeper
Where they get the guns from to point ? Are you really that stupid? Silly azz rabbit.
From gun shops. So are they not accountable for getting the gun in the first place. Why are black men so stupid to kill each other rather Than the oppressor. Are you really stupid to not hold them accountable for their own actions. Even furious in boyz in the hood said that they want us to kill ourselves. And our men do just that. Dumb ass. Now off my comments. Donkey.
White police officers treat black men like black men treat each other. The real fatality and homicide was Sandra bland.
Please don’t.
