They really do want war, don’t they?

Happy to oblige.

Obama sent Black Lives matter group to the UN during Ferguson.....their behavior was like they were protesting rather than appealing to the UN for their grievances. So very likely this is Obama pushing this....

I hate to break the news to his family, but George wasn’t shot.

I hate to break it to his family... if you play stupid games like spending your life in and out of jail, getting high on drugs, passing counterfit $20s, and then resisting arrest... you win stupid prizes, like having a dumb a$$ cop take a knee on your neck.

What does the Floyd incident and practically all other similar incidents have in common. Black and White
Fighting with the police.
Answer? Do what the officer asks.
Simple!

“”””’”On Memorial Day, George Floyd was killed by a white police officer in Minneapolis, Minnesota” is a truthful statement. “”””””””””

That is not a truthful statement.

When you say the cop KILLED Saint George it implies he intended to kill him. And apparently it was done due to racism.

What was the cause of death?

Did the cop force the meth and fentanyl into Saint George in order to kill him?

Come off it, Dems! Say what you mean:

Disarm the CURRENT police, and replace them with OUR police (which will be 10x more unfair and brutal!).

It’s beginning to come to light that the dumbass cop had some personal reasons for taking a knee like that...

All having to do with Mr. Floyd’s life in Minneapolis, as you mentioned...

George did not die of a gunshot wound, he died of gross mishandling that resulted in his death. Disarming the police means that only the criminals then will be bearing weapons, making a very asymmetrical situation.

Criminals are not known for their degree of generous and balanced reciprocity, forsaking arms just because the police have. In principle, at least, the entire police corps has been instructed in and is aware of the very great responsibilities of actually USING a weapon in the name of carrying out the demands of the law.

Criminals have respect for no such ethical standards or limitations on the use of various kinds of arms.

I would think that because he used a knee on georges throat that they would want to dis-leg all of the cops. /s

If the cop's intent was to kill Floyd a quick knee drop with full weight on to the neck followed by "oops!" would create plausible deniability.

Pinning him for over eight minutes was stupid, as he knew he was being videoed. That's why I don't believe he intended to kill Floyd.

...as well as people such as Ahmaud Arbery and Trayvon Martin who were killed by armed members of the public.”

Okay, George Floyd's family, what should have done with Ahmaud Arbery and Trayvon Martin's killers? Taking their guns away wouldn't have prevented their deaths. Derek Chauvin didn't use a gun to kill George Floyd. How do you bring justice to Arbery and Martin's killers?

George Floyd was involved in a home invasion where he pointed a gun at a pregnant women. His family does not like police anymore then Floyd did as he went to prison for that robbery.
