I think Candace Owen hit squarely on the most absurd part of this-that those on the Left have elevated this person, George Floyd, to some level of martyrdom.
He wasn’t Ghandi. He was a guy who threatened direct violence on a woman by pressing a handgun against her visibly pregnant abdomen as her house was robbed.
Watching the Left elevate him to the status of a saint, and watching glassy-eyed people latching onto it and running with it is like watching a mass hypnosis.
The black Horst Wessel.
The entire country was guided by the Media into “celebrating” the death of George Floyd as if it were literally the SECOND ASSASSINATION OF MARTIN LUTHER KING-—all the trappings—mahogany casket with brass handles, clip clopping of the hooves of the horses drawing the funeral open sided hearse, the momentous coverage of this “once-in-a-lifetime” event in which “Daddy changed the world!” One should never expect any degree of honesty or proportion in blessedly rare events like the Floyd death-—they are too useful as agenda-drivers.
