Are you done posting about George Floyd? Leave the man alone! Let him rest!

So they want to justify the killing?

Keep the fire burning. A little more gas. Cops have been arrested. Court dates pending. Let it go.

This POS was a criminal clear and simple, stop making him a fucking martyr

1995 - last time CNN reported the truth. Being generous....

Ok I’ve just watched your clip and basically you have no new footage . Arseholes

More riots and CNN couldn’t be more excited

The footage shows a non compliant George Floyd!! Resisting arrest! If George Floyd would have gotten in the car he would be alive today

How many blacks murdered this past weekend by other blacks ? Any new news on David Dorn ?

I thought we were done with this loser.

...and clearly show it wasn't murder or race related

“Video show GeorgeFloyd resists arrest entire time while crying I can’t breathe when nobody is touching him” FTFY

Give it a rest

This is an interesting editorial spin on the video. That's not how anyone who watched that video would characterize it.

Why no coverage of the Chicago riots?

Sick of the subject.

Dirty pigs 🐷🔫

Don't go off of headline alone. Watch the full 9 minute body camera He was saying he couldn't breathe while he was talking. He passed a fake 20 bill he resisted arrest and knew that he would be in jail for a long long time. He's a felon he was high on fentanyl

So he was saying he couldn’t breathe way before the knee on the neck yet medical examiner said death was cause of knee?

Wait, there is a second video? The first one I watched does not match your description so post this new one.

You're saying he resisted arrest? 👀

From hero to zero in a blink of an eye.

This man brought it on himself all he had to do is comply but he was so piped up on dope he had no clue what the f*** he was doing

fake news

Bald cop punched Floyd in the squad car before he got to the building & sat on sidewalk; car & cops shook off the ground as bald cop plunged at him.

Any dumb ol country boy will tell ya when the sheriff draws his gun you listen sober or not.

Whether George Floyd struggled with the cops or not during his arrest cannot justify the way he was killed in broad daylight and in cold blood by officer Derek.
