It is purely the fear factor. They know many people hate them, malign them and some hate them. I would be afraid too.

Not violent but there was a fairly large march tonight.
-----------------
Hundreds of people dismayed by the death of Justine Damond rallied and marched Thursday night in the south Minneapolis neighborhood where Damond lived and died, their procession growing as people came out of their houses to join it and others gathered on lawns and sidewalks to watch.
Before the evening march, several hundred people paid homage to one of the last lessons shared by Damond. Pastor Ashley Harness asked the marchers to look at their feet and "honor the Earth's original caretakers of this stolen land."
That request opened the march, which paused outside Damond's home, where neighbors and Valerie Castile, the mother of Philando Castile, embraced Don Damond.
Castile, whose son was shot to death by a St. Anthony police officer in 2016, told the crowd she "just had to come out today."
Also speaking was John Thompson, a friend of Philando Castile who has become an activist in the wake of his friend's death. As he delivered a passionate address, many in the audience responded by raising their fists in a gesture of defiance against police violence.
They chanted, "No justice, no peace, prosecute the police," which has been oft-heard over the past year in protests over Castile's shooting. Some shared a list of demands: that officer Noor be fired if he refuses to talk to the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension, that he be prosecuted for Damond's death, that a federal investigation be undertaken, and that dashcam footage from Noor's squad car be released.
"It is time for me and other white people to wake up," Sarah Kuhnen, who lives on Damond's block, said to loud cheers. "It's our reality now."
Hundreds rally, march to honor Damond's life, mourn her death
Yeah, but no calls to burn it down, and the slow governor of the state isn't running his mouth like he did with Castile - "wouldn't have happened if white". FINALLY some feminists are calling this out:
Women's Rights Advocates Question Police Response to Damond's 911 Calls
both of the cops in this case were noobs in trouble before, and they've both lawyered up. It's like he wanted to shoot her.

'I'm dying': What we now know about Justine Damond's final moments
The police officer Noor turned himself in and has been charged with third degree murder (which I don't think will stick) and second degree manslaughter (which I think he has a chance of being convicted with).
Good to see they are finally making headway with this case which has been in limbo for so long.

It's part of the lastest sensitivity training classes.

Seems I heard on the news this morning that yesterday he was arrested and charged for the killing.
Either that or you read it four posts upstream.
Nah, I didn't see that.
