Outnumbered - Thursday, May 28
On today's episode, Guy Benson is 'Outnumbered' as riots shake Minneapolis following a suspect's death, while a startling poll shows up about the coronavirus and its potential vaccine.
Protests over the death of George Floyd while in police custody broke out Wednesday night, with protesters and rioters calling for justice -- and the scenes in Minneapolis, Minn., Los Angeles and other parts of the country could be seen in footage circulating on social media.
After protests spawned the Minneapolis streets on Tuesday, a man posted a video of what he said was the inside of a Target store in Minneapolis being destroyed overnight Wednesday.
The footage accumulated more than 2.5 million views only 12 hours after it was posted -- and it was only a small sample of the viral videos recorded during the protests.
A local reporter, Max Nesterak, posted a separate video of the Target store, which attracted another 3.2 million views:

Video of a woman in a motorized wheelchair being attacked also went viral. She was hit repeatedly and sprayed with a fire extinguisher as a bystander shouted that she had a knife.
“While some deplored the video as a brutal attack on a disabled woman, others saw [the woman] as the aggressor and the fire extinguisher as an act of self-defense,” the Daily Mail reported.
Video later circulated that claimed the woman got out of the wheelchair and walked on her own following the altercation:
As of Thursday morning, parts of Minneapolis had been burned to the ground:
