Vikings are “deeply saddened” by the murder of George Floyd

On Monday night, Minneapolis police officers murdered a man named George Floyd.

And, yes, they murdered him. Some may object to the characterization given the blunt, hard candor of the term, but there’s no other way that any fair-minded person can view the video of a police officer consistently and persistently burying his knee into the neck of a man who eventually died due to the restriction of oxygen resulting from the placement of that knee onto his neck.

The Minnesota Vikings have issued a statement regarding the murder of George Floyd.

This is a matter of agents of the state excruciatingly killing an unarmed, prone, handcuffed man, long after he had stopped struggling, not even caring that they are doing it in front of multiple witnesses and while being filmed.

What the living F is wrong with you, and why do you DARE lift your head on "Free Republic" while worshipping the equivalent of the KGB?

Did you bother to watch the video?

He was accused of passing a bad $20 check.

He "resisted" being pulled out of his car by four now-ex-policemen.

There is video footage of him peaceably talking with them after having been cuffed -- he was sitting against a building with his hands behind his back in cuffs, and they stand him up and start walking him across the street and down the next block a little to the squad car.

There is 9 minutes of video of a policeman kneeling on his neck, while he says he can't breathe, and while onlookers call out "Stop you're killing him".

The cop remains with his knee on the neck, even after the man's bowels involuntarily evacuate (likely the moment of death), for over two more minutes, even as passersby (including, reportedly, a female police officer) beg him to stop and check his pulse.

Paramedics were called to the scene for "a man with a mouth injury" and instead found George Floyd unresponsive and without a pulse.

But the autofellatory subhuman JBT worshippers say that even though all of this was caught on film AS IT HAPPENED, and even though all four cops were fired within 24 hours, we should "wait for facts".

The videos and eyewitnesses ARE facts.

Go gargle KGB sperm somewhere else. Asphyxiating a man to death in public in front of witnesses for being accused of passing a bad $20 check is a violation of all the Constitution stands for.

Vermin like you should be banned from FR.

“Vermin like you should be banned from FR.”

Spoken like a true commie, which is your true nature. F in FR stands for Freedom, and you deciding to remove me because of my freedom of speech, should make you wonder if you truly are for freedom.

This time, your true colors of being a closet leftard shines so brightly. Congrats! lol

Jesus Himself said, "The devil was a murderer from the beginning."

And what was on the film was government actors murdering someone.

So it's funny that you can't even quote scripture on this, but rely on shopworn human maxims to attempt moral superiority over the indefensible.

Free Republic supports the Constitution.

Killling civilians slowly in cold blood is UN-Constitutional.

You're in the wrong place.

Massive fail on your part, disruptor.

This from the cop-hating genius who equates KGB = COPS. To you, ALL cops are the KGB?

Nah, you’re lying again. You accused me of hating cops.
Then you doubled down and accused me of equating the cops to the KGB.
Then you tripled down and accused me of saying ALL cops are the KGB.

Anything to distract from a policeman mugging for the camera while suffocating a man to death over 7-9 agonizing minutes, in broad daylight, in front of witnesses.

Utterly ineffectual trolling again.

Why are you so desperate to distract from a policeman murdering a man in cold blood in public while being filmed?
