I think the Black Panthers were going to give him a 21 gun salute but the local police didn’t show up.

Parading the corpse for political and monetary profit, it is a democrat tradition. From a pimple on the ass of time, lowlife thug he becomes the fascist democrats new Horst Wessel.

The last three presidents didn’t get this kind of send-off.

There are only two choices

He had a will- it goes by the will terms- Of which they will contest.

He didn’t have a will. It goes to his children.

And no, brother doesnt get to use Estate money for all the members of the family as he sees fit. He is an idiot if he thinks the court will allow that.

If he was married because he never got a divorce..which happens often in the black community...it changes things.

“...crowds line the streets to pay their respects”

RESPECT? I don’t respect career criminals.

I don’t respect drug addicts.

I don’t respect people that pass counterfeit bills.

I don’t respect men who stick a gun in a pregnant woman’s belly.

I don’t respect suspects that resist arrest.

I don’t respect George Floyd because he was all those things and MORE!

What a bunch of ahs. This whole affair is sick.

Floyd was stopped because he had just committed a crime. Sorry he died...but it looks like he was high as a kite....and being restrained didn't help.

Moral....don't break the law.

Floyd is even bigger than Aretha!

The Producers and Directors of this extravaganza should get an Oscar.

A bit over done, I’d say.

All because he was killed by the right person - a white cop. If he were gunned down on a sidewalk in the south side of Chicago, he would have been quickly buried in an unmarked grave and you would have never heard his name. But getting killed by a white cop means he fell to the hands of the enemy and was granted martyrdom.

“feels a bit phony”

I got the same feeling. Disrespectful.
