RIP GEORGE FLOYD AND TONY TIMPA AND HOW MANY MORE

Hahaha. Stupid. JAIL for vandal

I think ppl need to understand how to separate the protests from the looting. Yeah, there are people who are taking advantage of the protests to justify robbery. But there's also a lot of ppl who takes advantage of that to discredit a whole movement.

Lefties love a good loot.

Ya thats fine But let's not forget the deep poverty grinding people to despair as the wealthy power greeders take all. The system is dysfunctional America is a sick society. Looting runs as part of the whole ugly system... Not that the media would dare mention deeper issues...

Things are a bit crazy

They should call out Antifa on hijacking their protests. AntifaTerrorists

About time! Saw some stupid 20 somthin girl make as many excuses as she could on the BBC last night.

Colin didn’t mean looting.

Bit late tbh they have lost the argument

Excellent headline💙

If you're a white person wondering what to do about George Floyd, I have some adviceAs a bespectacled Black gay nerd who grew up in a poor, largely minority neighborhood in Houston, none of this is a surprise to me Lesson 1: Don't take advice from a leftist scandal rag from England... Aww you were doing so poorly, then you let yourself down at the end when it turned out it's just an ask to vote democrat and not republican this year 😂 pathetic Better advice.... question why racists thugged up George's tragedy by looting/burning and all around thuggery. Where were they for Tony?
