From CNN’s Mallory Simon
“All the feelings that everybody has, it just — it broke me — and for a moment, it was just watching in disbelief. Like, I know I'm not seeing what I see,” Bottoms said. “And I think for as horrific as it was watching the officer with his knee on his neck, what was more disturbing was watching the other officer not do anything about it.”
Bottoms, a former judge and city council member, was sworn in as mayor in 2018 and has quickly emerged as one of the Democratic Party's rising stars. On Friday night, amid a swirl of increasingly tense and occasionally violent scenes, she faced the cameras, her constituents and the country. Bottoms talked about why she feels so passionate and emotional about the struggles of black America, based on her own life experiences.
roman_electra EVOLDiamonds this is what his BROTHER had to say, “George would not have wanted this”
A kid on snapchat posted this last week. I don't know him and it was being spread around snapchat. This is awful.
Thank you CNN for showing the good things protesters are doing today. Protecting stores , working together and peacefully working to change the system.
These demonstrations it's not just about George floyd, but about realistic

Poor bloke, after losing his brother he shouldn't have to be doing this.
Wow dude being bold rocking the Yankees with brim.
Your brother would be proud of you!
Nothing is gonna bring him bk..but let justice be done and we must get justice
I wish he knew that the people responsible for the majority of the damage done in his neighborhood don't look like him. White supremacists/extremists are to blame for the fires, graffiti, etc.
