Nancy Pelosi kneels and calls George Floyd a 'martyr' to 'police brutality' as Democrats launch sweeping reform bill to ban chokeholds, make suing abusive cops easier and set up national register of guilty officers

The U.S.S.R. supported the group Antifaschistische Aktion which was organized in 1932, to start a Communist revolution in Germany. Hitler’s brownshirts and Antifaschistische Aktion were enemies, but they had the same ideology...change through violence. Today’s Antifa, and BLM have that same ideology. That is who George Soros and the Marxist left wants patrolling our streets.

Their mendacity and depravity knows no bounds. They will say and do anything to achieve absolute power.

That's not what the offical autopsy said, and I'm not talking about the one obtained by the family.

"The Hennepin County medical examiner said an autopsy listed Floyd's cause of death on May 25 as a "cardiopulmonary arrest complicating law enforcement subdual, restraint, and neck compression." A spokeswoman declined to comment to a request for clarification. The official coroner still called it a homicide."

That isn't abnormal or unusual. If there is a precipitating act that brings on an acute exacerbation of a pre-existing condition, the act will be blamed for the result.

A cynical and disingenuous photo op. Also, who paid for the Kwaanza scarves?

The knee on the neck may or may not have been the cause of death. the real problem is the cop kept the knee on the neck and did not check on him or render aid for 5 minutes after he became unresponsive and incontinent. That was the crime. For the rest of it Pelosi and ilk can pound sand

I am of the opinion that the first step in reforming police is to hold the individual officer responsible for their actions. This can be done by requiring LEO maintain a personal liability insurance. Cops who are abusive will rapidly see the cost of their insurance increase as more lawsuits mount up. When the costs become too high, they can no longer afford to be an officer.

George Floyd should not have died in the way he did, if he died in the way he apparently did. The trials of the cops should settle that, but I know it won’t be settled for lots of people. Nothing short of their heads on a platter will satisfy some people, but they aren’t going to get that.

George Floyd would still be walking around today and none of us would ever have heard from him, except he was involved in a crime and a bad cop answered the call. He got himself in trouble, and died, over twenty bucks worth of cigarettes. I know there are times when truly innocent people wind up dead at the hands of the police, but George Floyd wasn’t one of them.

That’s how I see it as well. It’s a dangerous thing to do and the safety of the person becomes your responsibility. When he becomes unresponsive it’s critical to see if it is real or if he is faking.

The plan for Federal, and above all, centralized POLITICAL control of the nations’ thousands of independent police and sheriffs forces has been apace since at least 2014, when Obama’s DOJ helped establish #BLM and coordinate the riots of Ferguson and Baltimore.

After this, the only people who will want to be police officers are the sort of people you don’t want to be police officers.

The plan for riots were made long before anyone outside his family knew George Floyd. He was the Macguffin.

The killer virus and the lockdown was coming to an end and the economy was showing signs of taking off.

So the call made and the first dead black at the hands of the police was the signal to start the protest/riots.

But this has peaked too early to be of any value to the Democrats. Rather then help them in November I suspect many white liberals have been scared into taking the RED PILL and now see that they will soon be the target of angry mobs.

All of this will quiet now and you have to wonder what rabbit the Democrats will pull out of their .. hat next.

Not to worry, pretty soon there will be no police officers to scapegoat, jail or sue.
