A state of emergency has been declared in Georgia and the National Guard has been called in as violence spreads to 30 cities across the United States over the death of George Floyd.

Mr Floyd was an unarmed black man who died after a Minneapolis police officer kneeled on his neck for more than eight minutes as he told them "I

can't breathe". At least two others have now died in nationwide protests that have sparked looting, building fires and dozens of arrests. Image: AP

This is what patriots do.... WWG1WGAWORLDWIDE TheGreatAwaking

On Twitter rioters calling for cops to be killed: WB Trump: 80% of the RIOTERS in Minneapolis last night were from OUT OF STATE. WB: 9 News Sydney: 80% of looters come from OUT OF STATE & some are provisional troublemakers

All this has nothing to do with that suspicions event. Has everything to do with Antifa and Black Lives Matter terrorism.

Remember the recent gun reform law protests in Virginia? All those MAGA-hat wearing, 'white supremacist', Trump loving racist monsters who rioted and burned and looted and attacked the police etc etc etc? LOL Yep... never happened LOL

These are clearly uneducated folk.

Not so sure that these protests are about poor George Floyd. More likely ANTIFA hijacking the narrative and trying to create chaos because they can. Time for sensible people, of all races, to get together and crush these scumbags.

Antifa don't care about George Floyd. If they did they wouldn't deliberately vandalise black businesses. They are communist thugs doing their job.

Leftists AntifaTerrorists

A pandemic, 40 million people unemployed, raging wealth inequality, a divided nation, trumps tweets and now this. MAGA? Donald has achieved the opposite. The US is in the worst state I have seen.

Governor says sorry after black TV reporter arrested while covering George Floyd riotsUnited State Governor Tim Walz apologised to CNN journalist Omar Jimenez and his two team members, after they were arrested live on television while reporting on violent protests sparked by the death of George Floyd at the hands of police. Lol is there going to be another riot because a black reporter was arrested? For those who care, the crew were mainly white that were arrested, and secondly, the police told them they risked arrest if they didn't move. They CHOSE to get arrested. Don't let the media choose how you're meant to feel about it.
