George Floyd’s Family Petitions United Nations to Help Disarm Police in the United States
Breitbart ^ | 8 Jun 2020 | Penny Starr

The family of George Floyd, the black man killed while in police custody in Minneapolis on Memorial Day, has sent a letter to the globalist United Nations to ask for its help in disarming police officers in the United States of America.

The family’s legal team facilitated the letter, which was sent on Wednesday, according to NBC News:

The group sent a letter on June 3 to one of the international body’s working groups asking for support for the end of the provision of military equipment and military-type training for police, the teaching of deescalation techniques, independent prosecutions and autopsies for “extrajudicial” police killings, and more.

“When a group of people of any nation have been systemically deprived of their universal human right to life by its government for decades, it must appeal to the international community for its support and to the United Nations for its intervention,” Floyd’s family attorney Ben Crump said in a press release.

The U.N. issued a statement on May 28, three days after Floyd’s death, and included the names of other black people in the U.S. who died in police custody. Michelle Bachelet, U.N. Commissioner on Human Rights, is quoted in the statement, which says, in part:

“This is the latest in a long line of killings of unarmed African Americans by U.S. police officers and members of the public,” Bachelet said. “I am dismayed to have to add George Floyd’s name to that of Breonna Taylor, Eric Garner, Michael Brown and many other unarmed African Americans who have died over the years at the hands of the police — as well as people such as Ahmaud Arbery and Trayvon Martin who were killed by armed members of the public.”

“The US authorities must take serious action to stop such killings, and to ensure justice is

George Floyd was a five time violent felon and used guns in his crimes.

The cops, and his victims, should have the ability to defend themselves.

I had sympathy for the family until this. Now they can just go to he11. While Floyd did not deserve what happened to him, he was no choir boy.

The United Nations should immediately get rid of all security personnel and should not be defended by any police of any kind....

Time for them to practice some virtue....

The high social status and educational attainments of the late George Floyd’s family has gained recognition in inernationa circles. /s

Or, Alinsky and Soros operatives are negotiating in the leftist criminal underground with the Marxist/Chinese United Nations. The semi literate family is going along.

Imagine their multimillion dollar payout coming when they sue everyone.

//Hard to find fact: one of the many crimes committed by George Floyd included a home invasion in which he held a gun against the abdomen of a terrified pregnant woman to force her to uncover more money and valuables for him to steal.

THAT’S the guy a majority of American side with against the police? Not just that overeager cop with his knee on his neck, but ALL police-—innocent ones.

That’s the American people for you.

“ Defund the useless UN!”

Yeah, I imagine that is exactly what would happen if the UN chooses to pursue the Floyd family request. They would follow the way of the WHO.
