but, but he was turning his life around and was an aspiring crapper.
I do doubt he was committing any crimes while handcuffed on the ground being murdered.
Sorry, George Floyd’s “violent criminal history” is not relevant. Need to call balls and strikes here. He was killed by a cop using excessive force. But that doesn’t give anyone the right to riot, loot, and raze businesses.
Ok. He may have. But he was down an cuffed. The police are no judge jury and executioner.
While I am not suggesting this guy deserved to die as per usual and with almost everyone of these situations that has happened in the last 10 years the story is ever changing and never what the MSM presents it to be. The story is not the whole story. From skittles to the gentle giant.
There is something fishy about that counterfeit $20?
If that justified killing him them why didn't the police just shoot him? More merciful.
Odd.
They seem to want to bring up the policeman’s past history, but not this guy’s past history.
Yet another fine example of why any and all Public Sector Employees (don’t call them “workers”, they aren’t) should NEVER be permitted to belong to ANY Union at all, ever.
That may be true— no doubt is true— but Chauvin has had his own professional conduct issues which need to blow back on the police establishment and the city government. Has that happened yet?
That is a true statement.
Odd - Rush was gushing over Floyd yesterday, saying what an absolutely great guy he was. He was (suspiciously) murdered, and the officer needs to face the music, but Floyd being remembered as a saint is not correct. He also had children who didn’t even know who he was until he died. Kind of a messy life.
Hes been going straight for 13 years
Still does not justify how he was treated!
What happened to Floyd by that cop should never have happened but this guy was NO saint..he put a knife to a pregnant woman’s stomach during a robbery in Houston
Not Saint Floyd!
This isn’t a court.
Floyd’s history can, and should, be examined.
Go to youtube and do some searching. It’s not long before you see plenty of cops using the knee to the neck. As I’ve said before, you can’t suffocate or choke someone with pressure only to the back of the neck. I thought FReepers were free thinkers as well.
Leftists (big media, politicians, celebrities, rioters) are gonna railroad this guy for speaking the truth. He’ll be fired or forced to apologize and kneel before the rioters by nightfall.
