The President of the United States, Donald Trump has threatened to deploy the US Military on violent protesters if the state governors fail to calm the situation.
The protests which was triggered by the death of George Flyod, a black man that choked to death after being surpressed by the knee of a Minneapolis officer a week ago has become the new “American Pandemic”.
Thousand of protesters have emerged all over the country and even beyond the US condemning police brutality in America and demanding justice for the death of George Flyod.
The Minneapolis officer was subsequently fired and charged for third degree murder and man slaughter.
The protest which has quickly spread across the US starting from Minneapolis has erupted in both violent and non-violent confrontations between protesters and police officers causing unrest in many parts of the country as thousands of people have been arrested over the past week and many injured.
The US President said, ” If the governors do not contain the violent protesters, I will deploy the US military to solve the problem for them”.
