Washington-Sana

After US President Donald Trump launched a series of tweets threatening to use force to crack down on protesters at US police violence, the Houston City Chief of Police sent a strong-worded letter asking him to "keep his mouth shut" to prevent the already troubled parts of the United States from stirring up.

The warning of Houston Police Chief Art Acevedo to Trump came during a video call to the American CNN network, in which he said: “Let me say this to the President of the United States on behalf of the police chiefs in this country .. please .. if you have nothing constructive to say. Keep your mouth shut, "adding that" it is not a matter of hegemony, but of winning hearts and minds, "in a clear response to Trump's offensive statements that increased congestion in American society and feelings of anger among protesters over police violence and the murder of African-American citizen George Floyd.

Trump's threats to use maximum force against protesters have become more serious and dangerous over the past two days after he has vowed to end protests in major US cities and send thousands of heavily armed soldiers and law enforcement forces to end violence in the capital and other cities if mayors and rulers cannot regain control of the streets and refuse to call the guards the National.

Trump, who adopted a clear racist speech since he took over the US presidency, faces a massive protest movement in an event that is the most dangerous in his state, with thousands of Americans taking to the streets to protest against the violence practiced by the police, racism and social inequality. The country has not seen it since the riots that followed the assassination of Martin Luther King in 1968 and the National Guard was deployed in 23 states and the capital Washington.

The repercussions of the murder of Floyd are exacerbated not only on the American stage, but also turned into a public opinion issue, with protests emerging in several countries, including Britain, Australia, Canada and Germany, in support of demonstrators against racism and police violence in the United States.

Among the responses to US police crimes and Floyd’s killing by American police in Minneapolis, public schools in the city are moving to end their contract with the police department, according to a report published in the British Guardian newspaper.

Josh Polly, a board member of the Minneapolis School who helped draft the decision to end the security contract with the city police, wrote in a tweet on Twitter that public schools "cannot partner with organizations that do not see humanity in our students ... while the school board does not have the capacity or The authority to arrest and prosecute the officers who killed George Floyd but we have the ability to send a clear message to the city police department not only through public statements but through action.

The Union of Teachers in Minneapolis supported this change, calling on city schools to cut off all financial relationships with the police and investment department in additional support for mental health for students. Instead, according to data from the American Center for Education Statistics, more than 70 percent of public high schools and 30 percent of primary schools in the states The United States has law enforcement officers who routinely carry firearms.

American police violence and crimes against African Americans cannot be counted, as they have been continuing over the decades, not Floyd’s first murder, and it will not be the last, according to statistics published by “CNN.” Police officers

The American has used the method of pressing the neck on more than 428 people since 2012, and 14 percent of them lost consciousness as a result of this dangerous method of arrest.

As international reactions denouncing Floyd’s killing and manifestations of racial discrimination that have worsened and become more dangerous due to Trump’s policies continue, anti-violence and racist protests continue throughout the United States, and confrontations between protesters and police who use all means to suppress demonstrators, including rubber bullets and helicopters, are becoming increasingly fierce.
