[Daily Mail, where America gets its news]
  • Officials 'authorized the use of deadly force' at the service in Pearland in June

  • A presentation on law enforcement preparation detailed officers being 'stationed for a quick response to rioting and looting', Vice News reports

  • Records show officials had placed snipers on rooftops at his burial

  • They had also reportedly called in 66 members of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection's (CBP) Border Patrol Tactical Unit (BORTAC)

  • The BORTAC teams are heavily armed units are similar to police SWAT teams

  • Floyd, who was black, died on May 25 in police custody in Minneapolis
A good thing they didn’t riot after all.
