This is a thread honoring heroes...not a killer who kept track by marking his watch case for each kill....Floyd was no more a hero of the people than Mumia is....colorful yes, but a menace to his own society...millions of men in his same position never killed....he did...he was not betrayed by society...his own actions betrayed civilility...to mention him the way you do on this particular post is thoughtless and insulting at best.
