I know exactly what it says. That’s why I emphasize the whole thing in context.

God told Peter to eat nothing; don't put words in God's mouth. God said, “What God has cleansed, that call thou not common” after Peter was emphatic that he would not kill and eat the unclean animals after God said to “arise … kill and eat”, and what Peter got from that is “God hath shown me that I should not call any man common or unclean” by means of that vision.

Here’s what it really says
Acts 10:13 Then a voice told him, “Get up, Peter. Kill and eat.”
14 “Surely not, Lord!” Peter replied. “I have never eaten anything impure or unclean.” 15 The voice spoke to him a second time, “Do not call **anything** impure that God has made clean.”

They are talking about food and animals, not people. Peter later extended it to people.
