alexvallenilla Millenial fashion, everything will stay the same after this fades away.

If Floyd is a white man, they will riot? Definitely not. Now who is on discrimination? who is racist ?

Blacks hate blacks more than anyone based on statistical data that shows they murder each other all the time.

By Law No POTUS EVER can intervene in States affairs, So it is your States Mayors/Governors who are in charge of the Police No one else can be, that are keeping the dirty cops on the pay roll that abuse you so, who's abusing you? The people you voted in.

Of all times the cop chose this time,so unfair of what's going on in the world with the virus and the murder of George Floyd and the others this past weeks,you look at the world right now, you just see fear,pain,loss,justice for blacklives,no one chose to be born black,✌

I hope those “police” officers get what’s coming to them! Pure evil. GeorgeFloyd

“No one cares about social distancing anymore...”

Thank you for the support BlackLivesMatter

But... WHAT can EACH of us do about all the HATE, RAGE, DISCRIMINATION, and SOCIETAL MELTDOWN..? Watch this VIDEO... The ANSWER is in the Ancient Past...

'protest/PROTESTER never SKECH DOES, BIBLE TALK, CALMA MADE THIS TYPE, HEX DO PLAY/ACTION RETURN BACK YOUR LIFE ON? NEVER BE HATE, NEVER BE exploit, NEVER BE KILL, NEVER BE TRIAL FIT MINAS,

Australia really has a cheek. The way they treat aboriginals and they’re protesting for black lives. It’s a complete farce.

Black lives matter and so ABORIGINAL lives do

We stand in solidarity with Americans during this trying time. Black lives MATTER.

Stop racism, great! Stop PoliceBrutality, great! But just make sure you don't fall into the traps set by CCPChina to take advantage of the weakest link in western countries. Listen to this video about CCP's 3 doctrine warfare to strangle the west:

Minneapolis: Sheriff of democratic countries Mayor of a democratic country Governor of a democratic country President of a democratic country The DNA of a democratic country Stock companies in democratic countries (50 continents)

✊🏿 BlackLivesMatter

Now, that you’ve protested,looted and destroyed your community, I better see you the polls. I don’t care if you walk, on the bus or mail in your vote. VOTE! For the 100 m. + people in every city across the country.

Virtue signalling is contagious. Hope they get loads of insta likes ..

Mind your business, other countries. This is how you know USA is the greatest

Why is the UK not condemning US, not advising US ends the its institutional racism and murder of black people? whereisboris georgefloyd WalkWithUs

This year is very bad for the world, we should do seven things of endurance. I am not saying all of you are watching this. Keep calm and stay away from rebellion saveworld savepeople savelife BlackLivesMatter

World witnessed a black man being murdered would it been different if he was white 😭

Are these people in their counties that bored...fix your own inequalities Australia

All lives matter

US is full of to Many dirty tricks You can't be a world leader and lead it all to a bunch of uncompromised thieves with egos that are bigger than their hearts...

This has been really touching to see the support from around the globe but I hope each of these country’s are taking this time to self reflect and make changes too before they have their own tragedy. We know this doesn’t exist just here. Citizens of the world must also change

What is Gay flag has to do with all this WTF!!?

Sad day in American history when the nation that spurred the creation of our own is more democratic than we.

Until the philosophy Which hold one race superior and another Inferior Is finally And permanently Discredited And abandoned Everywhere is war.... Haile Selassie popularised by Bob Marley

Social distancing...No? Ok.

Attention enabling sycophant senators and cabinet members Y’all are in dereliction of duty for Not removing trump Blood is on Your hands also We will all remember History will remember Y’all will be Fired ! Y’all going to federal prison ! Or Gitmo for Domestic Terrorism

We are all humans, they must free all black people. We don't deserve such kind of treatment. Africans they support you black America but you don't give a shit to support Africans

Soros is ramping up the cabals take down of Trump? They will loose! The cats out of the bag. Who is paying for the palettes of bricks put throughout cities? Who are the people wearing ear pieces amongst the rioters? Many questions? Where is are media?

BlackLivesMatter ✊🏿

The real true virus is liberalism.

One day USA will Destroy itself by supporting Israel & other Zionist policies of USA.

Why was the entire mass media world so silent over police's brutality in Hong Kong, killing the armless citizens there.

Thank you.

Why

They aren't 'breaking out'. They are organized and sponsored by wealthy US 'Regime Change' interests. This is what happened in Ukraine and this is what they tried to do in Syria. Everyone in the UN hate Trump as much as they hated the Ukraine President and Syrian President.

Are the protesters being sent to a concentrationcamp ?

✊🏽

This has finally shown the world that there is something fundamentally wrong with the empire. An ailing empire and a murderous one

Don't think they give two shits about GeorgeFloyd..... Its just an excuse to cause some carnage

Well that’s the second wave of corona on it’s way & all these dipshits will be clapping the NHS & telling others to social distance 😤

O P P O R T U N I S M

Remember, the Benghazi attacks were due to a YouTube video EnemyOfThePeople

MG42 them !

From what I’ve seen, none of these crowds look all that big, even in the US.

This is no longer about George Floyd. Majority of Americans including me want justice for his death, it was flat out wrong. These riots are about destroying the fabric of our nation. It’s about the election and causing societal unrest.

Unlike America, London is having a protest...NOT A RIOT. KeepingItReal because the media slants or omits the truth.

This is beyond Stupid. Use that energy to March on the Chinese embassy for the destruction of Hong Kong.

Oh Stop! You all forced Megan Markle to leave!

Unlike the Americans, Brits so far contain themselves not to vandalize or set fire on properties.

Why can 4 Swedish vacationing officers stop NY attack in 2015 NOT just re 4 officers; jogger killed takes 2 months; NY bird watcher having PD called Is re Police Chief, justice system failing TrumpResignNow STOP MPD, LA/NYPD; Ferguson training in Israel

Correction: THUGS

If a police manual in this nation does not expressly prohibit holds that block circulation and breathing, it must be changed immediately. Otherwise we will continue to see the kind of brutality we just witnessed.

Who the f**k are these people? Whatever happened to social distancing?

Global protests against the murder of ethnic minorities by the US government and systematic oppression of major coalition operations!

I understand that this is emotive. What happened was shocking. Let’s hope we don’t see a massive spike in cv19 in the next 14 day’s though 😬

The George Floyd who is called “the Gentle Giant” by mainstream media and that has been beatified by the left was convicted of armed robbery and of home invasion.

BretBaier Stop with the foolishness ABC, you and I know that it is not about George Floyd, he is long forgotten. It is about Anarchy period,

✊✊🏿

The leftists reduced themselves to Orange Man Bad clan. And they expect to change the world 🙃

Why not show all the people (67million) staying at home who couldn't give a shit at your protests!

BretBaier Does anybody want to check the stats on whites killed by police in America? I’ve been told there are more whites killed by police than blacks even though blacks come in contact with police much more often. Story for you ? Or doesn’t it fit your fake news agenda?

Nothing orchestrated here, lol.

This is no longer about George Floyd. Sad.

It's been 7 days since mass gatherings started, & still no huge spike in Coronavirus. The virus & the riots are being used for political purposes.

More people would turn out for a Sunday afternoon premier league match Most people couldn't give a shit!

greta There’s not a chance this is spontaneous.

BretBaier BS

With all the bad policing in Britain, why would they care about one random person in America? Obviously this is something else.

Это ж сколько ваты во всем мире.Засучим рукава,Карл,работы много.

BretBaier This is crazy. Stay home! Stay safe!

Good! Our Marines will set any animals straight fast! USMC!

Black lives matter... to be honest.. just thinking that has to be said makes me go hmmm.. OF COURSE BLACK LIVES MATTER ... ALL LIVES MATTER.. except to the liberals .. then only votes matter and they will manipulate and propagate until they subjugate.

is a domestic terrorist organization MAKE MEDIA GREAT AGAIN MMGA

When we finally get a president, he or she should change the $20.00 from Andrew Jackson, a Dead Confederate, to George Floyd, a Dead Black Man. Mr. Floyd died over a counterfeit 20.00 dollar bill. George Floyd ~ Father of the 2020 Revolution.

We will take direct action against injustice despite the failure of governmental & other official agencies to act first. We wont obey unjust laws or submit to unjust practices. We will do this peacefully, openly, cheerfully because our aim is to persuade.

where r all the black cops if there r any behind a desk in the office

Хм,я задумалась

Everybody looking for an excuse, the cells are activated, Soros must be happy.

The world is under terrorist attack

I know for fact that the US has become an international laughing stock. And let’s be clear most mordern western countries are well ahaid of the US and it’s oooold ass policies.

Democrats are hiding behind black lives matter they've been doing this for years and now their looting and burning and destroying because they can't get what they want, the country's changing and they can't stop it so we have what we have today, crazies running the street.

There likely is a lot of Antifa involvement in European ,protests‘ too.

Policing needs to be fixed. This problem needs to be adressed at a systemic level. We need to talk about the system that allows law enforcement to interact with African Americans over minor offenses in this way...

The world cares all while Trump hides BunkerBoy BunkerBoyTrump

Black lives matter is a terrorist group.

These people are becoming a global problem now.
