There u go, finally the truth came out, ghetto lottery for the Floyd family. Did the family help G Floyd to overcome drug & alcohol abuse & his criminal life? But now Minneapolis taxpayers will pay for the family's suffering even when GF probably wasn't a law abiding taxpayer.

I hope the money helps you heal. So sorry that 4 people let their racist stuipdy ruin lives. So sorry for your loss

Target, MTV Blocked Ads From News Mentioning ‘George Floyd’ and ‘Protests’Terms related to protests were on “blocklists” companies use to avoid ad placements in sensitive content.

George Floyd and the long battle to defund Chicago's school police'We need counseling, therapists and psychologists,' one student said. 'I see this with my own two eyes.' Why is the focus so much on reducing the police rather than re-orienting the police? They are a necessary public service, and while I understand that there is a reasonable limit to their presence, limiting their resources is not going to help anything. REAL NEWS So I guess they want to make Chicago look even more like a third world African country.

'Excited delirium' cited in Floyd case and othersLaw enforcement officials say excited delirium usually happens to people who have been using drugs or who have a serious mental illness. It may be seen when a person is held in a chokehold, hog-tied, or Tasered, though some medical associations don't recognize the condition. Or police brutality in the likes of so many white supremacy Rodney King beating. Watch the video. Hate has to be stronger in order to be executed. BLACK_LIVES_MATTER FUCK YOU Oh Fuck Off! You have to train the Police to Police. 3/4 of the population own guns so there is nothing simple about Policing or Social Justice. You use extremes. Always wrong. Guilt by colour, nobody is innocent. Excited delirium won’t wash here man. We saw this cold blooded murder in that arrogant cops face.
