Here is what is forgotten. Why was Floyd in custody? He committed a crime. Yet all these blm protesters treat him as if he was an innocent martyr. Yes he was treated badly but he was not innocent.

Clean up that trash

Anything for sensationalism. One day we are living under a dictatorship next we are killing unarmed men. I hope the media get held accountable for the damage they did.

Trial hasn't happened yet and defense says it was a drug overdose. Sky news jumping to conclusions without evidence

Ooh please 🙄

Shrine: a place regarded as holy because of its associations with a divinity or a sacred person or relic, marked by a building or other construction. Perhaps it should be called a memorial?

He was pushing drugs and swallowed them to avoid arrest and overdosed while in police custody

He stroked out on the drugs,didn't you see the autopsy report.

George Floyd, forever remembered as drug addicted armed robber who held a gun to a pregnant lady... Except if you are a moronic progressive, whom idealise him as the reincarnation of god...

So not going to report any actual facts in this case?

Pauline Hansons name is not that. Her REAL NAME is Pauline Zagorski. Hanson is her marriage name and she was divorced. Zorgoski is Croatian, Pauline isnt even a second generation Australian.. In 1978, Hanson (then Pauline Zagorski) met Mark Hanson, a tradesman on the Gold Coast

Minneapolis lost a criminal and drug addict. Better for society

St George was a thug, a criminal and a methed up drug addict.

Ex-cops blame one another and seek own trials in George Floyd's deathAttorneys for four former Minneapolis officers charged in the death of George Floyd say each client should get his own trial, as the officers point fingers at one another. 9News That first one has to be the one to go away for the most time. Looked like he was the one in a position of power over the others (probably scared to stand up to him) and he was the one kneeling on Georges throat. Will be interesting to see how it all plays out though. The video footage tells the whole story. Pointing fingers would be almost irrelevant. Couldn't give a stuff tbh🤪

Close down these wasteful colonial governments, we're All Australians. She’s not the only one, this is happening to plenty of people. Individuals do not surpass the whole. Let us be compassionate, but let us be careful not to slip into selfishness also...

Australia rallies behind family separated from terminally ill father by ‘mystifying’ border bans | Sky News AustraliaSky News Australia has helped raise hundreds of thousands of dollars live-on-air for the family of terminally ill man Mark Keans after they were denied an exemption to Queensland’s strict border laws to visit him. \n\nAfter hearing of Mr Keans’ battle to see his four children before he passes away, Australians dug deep and raised more than $200,000 on the family’s GoFundMe page by the end of the night.\n\nEven Prime Minister Scott Morrison tipped in $1000 to help the family to help pay for the quarantine costs after the family was told they could now enter Queensland but at a cost of $16,000.\n\nIn an emotional interview with Sky News host Paul Murray, Mr Keans' sister Tam Langborne spoke of the pain behind Queensland Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk’s incredibly strict border bans which have left the prime minister “mystified”.\n\n'He's struggling, his major wish when he got diagnosed was that he just wanted his kids since the day he got diagnosed we've been fighting and fighting ... it didn't look like anything was going to happen it was the impossible but we're starting to get a voice,” she said.\n\n'It means so much to our family that people are coming to fight for us.”\n\nIn just 20 minutes after first hearing their story, the Sky News Australia audience raised over $110,000 and that figure had exceeded $200,000 by the end of the night.\n\nSky News Australia will bring you updates on the family’s battle to reunite as it unfolds.\n\n Finally something good coming from the outlet that spews a lot of crap.. Where are those “media experts“ commenting that skynews does not have audience? Perhaps if they organised a game of AFL the Qld govt would let them in.
