Video .. Americans declare "George Floyd's Free State" in Minneapolis

Under the slogan "You are entering a free state, George Floyd's free state," black rights activists have fenced several buildings around the location of George Floyd's murder from the rest of Minneapolis.

When you reach the so-called state limits, you are met by the guardians ’shouting,“ Stop, I'll shoot!

It is not permitted to walk on foot or by car.

Outsiders do not go to this area, the borders in "George Floyd State" are closed.

These guards told a newspaper reporter in the text, "White people cannot enter the area."

The surrounding streets are not crowded, and the "Black Lives Matter" signs increasingly dilute home sales advertisements.

The locals no longer called the police, as it became useless, the patrolmen had not visited them since the day Floyd was killed.

The once quiet residential neighborhood now has a 240% increase in crime over the average of the rest of Minneapolis.

"We are all in great danger here," said a local resident. "If you go to the store alone, the thieves will kill you. They shoot every day."

The gangs who occupied the same area and turned into bandits, walk along the roads and maintain order, and this is what they set up on their own.

"We don't care about the police," says the bandits. "This area has its own life. We protect ourselves."

And the whole of Minneapolis could be a region without a police.

After the death of Floyd, the city council discusses such a proposal, while the funds allocated for it are planned to be spent on education, social services and public oversight.

One woman said, "I don't call the police anyway. I call social activists, my friends, if something happens, but not the police. The police are just working to make the situation worse and not helping in any way. All they do is write reports."

Coinciding with the start of the trial hearing for the officer who killed Floyd, the Minneapolis mayor's office announced that it had paid $ 27 million to the Floyd family.

An unprecedented amount of compensation for such a case.
