That does not change that the policeman killed him.
This guy better move his family.

I don’t disagree with him, but at this point, its best to leave Floyd out of this.
That’s the last Trump rally he will be speaking at after that kamikaze statement.
The Jacksonville, FL sheriff was just on the radio. He called Floyd’s death a “murder” and said as a former patrolman he was “shocked” that none of the other officers on scene intervened to stop the minutes long assault on a handcuffed and unconscious prisoner.
That honestly doesn’t matter. He wasn’t doing anything violent at the time, he’d been more or less straight since he’d gotten out of jail, and he was (like many others) left unemployed by the Dem shutdown, since he had worked in a bar.
But that honestly doesn’t matter either.
He was disoriented, was thought to be drunk, told the cops he was having trouble breathing even before they took him out of his car...and they handled it all wrong.
The normal protocols for somebody who you may suspect of being under the influence of drugs are: be careful (because these drugs are toxic to people who even touch the clothing of users) and call EMS. Not handcuff them face down and stand on their necks.
I’m sure all of the libs lining up to attend George’s funeral, in Houston, will cover this part of his story, extensively.
Not.
What the hell does he know, he’s a white guy... (spit) /s
