I guess EVERY funeral in Minnesota is the Wellstone Memorial
No, not so. My mother-in-law passed away last Tuesday. We had not been able to see her for Easter, Mother's Day, .... She died at her daughter's home among her loved ones. We had a small graveside ceremony. She wasn't important enough for a full on Wellstone Memorial.
Her life was never as exciting as that of George Floyd. She never held anyone up, never served a prison sentence, never used drugs, ..... She just worshipped God, honored Him in her life as a surgical nurse and left quietly, after having arranged and paid for her funeral several months ago. She was quiet and dignified. She didn't get much comfort in her last months owing to the Corona crap, but she died well. And last Saturday, a bright, sunny yet cool day, we laid her to rest in a quiet cemetery. It wasn't the funeral she'd wanted, but it was beautiful and we honored her with due decorum.

This circus really pisses me off.
A white couple travelling on I-10 through Baton Rouge stopped to get gasoline. Two elementary age kids in the back seat.
Husband is confronted by a black man who shoots him in the head. Wife gets out to protect her husband. A black woman then shoots the wife in the head.
So a white couple were executed in front of their kids for being in the wrong part of town.
NO media attention to this at all.

OMG.
Some CEO guy named Zane Tankel just said on Neil Cavuto’s show that he decided not to shave his beard off in honor of George Floyd. WT Flying F?
What does a beard have to do with anything, Floyd didn’t even have a beard.
Pure insanity.
I think I’m going to make a BLT now. You know, “in honor of George Floyd.”

Total 3 days for this staged funeral drama to play out and then they’ll be back to riot.

At first, I was outraged at what happened to George Floyd when I saw the footage. At this point, after all the death and destruction that followed in his wake, about the only emotion I feel for the tragedy is:

Well, she was partly responsible for this cluster, so maybe she’s trying to atone, hee-hee.

My aunt lost her mother, presumably to dementia-related complications, and we haven’t joined together for a memorial yet. My Governor (Larry Boss Hogg Hogan) does realize it’s already June, right?

No one is crying over the innocent puppy that some black thug looter grabbed up out of a yard, tortured, and strangled. OMG, a baby dog, an innocent creature. That guy should be thrown into a deep quarry, minimum.
OK, THIS is the icon, the hero to a large part of the black community and a bunch of useful white lib idiots--a criminal, a porn "actor", sire of an illegitimate child, a drug user and someone who obviously neglected the responsibility of his health. How on earth does this marginal character rate nationwide riots in his "honor", a gaudy gold casket, the most pathetic protozoid politicians kneeling before his casket, etc. merit anything besides his basic 6 x 3?

Unfortunately there are some states and areas of you should not travel thru for any reason.
When in Flrida, and unfamiliar with the area I took a wrong exit....driving along trying to figure out where I was, I saw women hanging out on corners and boarded windows and gated doors. Wasn’t driving more than 5 minutes when a police car was in back of me and another along side. Pulled over and they said ..”we knew you weren’t from around here, a blond woman driving a nice car by herself wouldn’t survive”....they were actually escorting me until I was back up on the freeway..said they new I was lost.

Thanks. I feel for families who have to suffer their loss without loved ones and friends beside them. And then to see this. It’s infuriating. Not that Floyd’s family is getting multiple opportunities to mourn their family member, but that others are being denied the same.
