[0:00] I have said from the get-go,
[0:02] to people in Minneapolis,
[0:04] do not take the bait.
[0:05] We are better than that.
[0:07] I have encouraged peaceful protest
[0:09] and I am inspired
[0:10] by the
[0:11] tens of thousands of people
[0:13] who have, in fact,
[0:14] peacefully protested
[0:15] and fairly documented with transparency
[0:18] what is taking place.
[0:19] That is allowed
[0:20] in any city in the country.
[0:22] And I have made it clear
[0:23] that to the extent
[0:24] people are going beyond that
[0:26] and those protests are not peaceful,
[0:28] and the violence
[0:30] that the Chief mentioned,
[0:32] it's got to stop and you got to go home.
