Democrat Senators Kneel During Moment of Silence for George Floyd
Breitbart ^ | June 05 2020 | JOSHUA CAPLAN

Posted on 06/05/2020 3:26:05 PM PDT by knighthawk

Five Democrat senators knelt during a moment of silence for George Floyd — a black man who recently died in police custody in Minneapolis — on Capitol Hill Friday afternoon.

Sens. Tim Kaine (D-VA), Sherrod Brown (D-OH), Chris Van Hollen (D-MD), Martin Heinrich (D-NM), Michael Bennet (D-CO) knelt during the tribute, which lasted for eight minutes and 46 seconds, the length of time that video showed fired Minneapolis officer Derek Chauvin pressing his knee on Floyd’s neck before he died. Chauvin faces a second-degree murder charge over the incident.

On their knees, that is their usual position when sucking up for votes. Democrats issue newly elected senators and representatives a set of fitted O-rings for every occasion (constiuency).

Total ridiculous elitist Drama Queens........ All fake emoting, totally FAKE. They don’t really give a D@mn about blacks, just black votes on election days.

So, Rat Senators, why didn’t you stay on your knees, lick a black man’s b@lls, and apologize repeatedly for not being black or black enough? Because whatever you do to try to “make things better”, it will never EVER be enough.

Jack@sses.........

Only a few of the usual suspects.
Wonder why more didn’t join in?

Tim Kaine, on both knees with his hands behind his back looks like a freaking hostage of ISIS. What a weak and pathetic bunch of pussies.

Hanging on the wall by my desk is the quote “Es mejor morir de pie que vivir de rodillas”-in a frame with a copy of a photo of Emiliano Zapata-I’m sure these disgusting cowards never heard that qoute-or any similar ones from our own founding fathers...
