George Floyd’s Criminal Past Record/Arrest Timeline for armed robbery, pointing a gun at a pregnant woman and being involved in cocaine/white bag/baggie charges. He was an outstanding citizen. Dont mistake him for a True Hero, and destroy everything in this world.
Martin Luther King Jr.
David Dorn deserves the honour and recognition, not George Floyd who once held a gun to the stomach of a pregnant woman.
I would piss on his grave.
RIP George Floyd. To hear you crying out for your "deceased mother" continues to break my heart. Seeing a police DEMON murder you; with his hand so casually tucked away in his pocket as he rested all his weight on your neck, seemingly fully aware he was murdering you, will be seared in my brain forever! FOREVER!
Reminds me of my classmate shot to death,
in the backseat of a squad car, where a WHITE cop (in Dallas TX) played Russian Roulette, with a gun held to Santo's head! My classmates at that time was only 12 years old!!! #Santos Rodriguez.
Ppl reference Mr. Floyd's death by commenting: "this too shall pass; trouble don't last always." Trouble has lasted us over 400+ years!! That is "always" for those murdered! Gone! #Time'sUp #ThereMustBeJustice!!!
Onore e rispetto a George Floyd,no al razzismo dall’Italia!!✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿🇮🇹🇮🇹
The glorification of such lowlife can only be by those with no moral or social values and is abhorrent to decent minded, respectable people.
Beautiful 🙏🏾 Rest in Paradise George Floyd. #BLACKLIVESMATTER ✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿
The beatification of Floyd, how embarrassing……
The USA is a terrible country. That's why thousands of black Americans flee, under peril to their lives, in overcrowded boats to Africa.
George Floyd was well loved by everyone

In 1004 cases of ppl dying while in police custody 471 were white men, 250 were black men, the remainder were other races. The majority of these ppl had guns. The media is complicit in race baiting. Why is that no other races are reported on?? There are fewer black men killed than any other race…so why is it only black mens deaths reported?? Don't all lives matter in the end?? And no, I am not racist, so please don't throw shade. Racism is used as an excuse and a crutch these days.
1. Most of you probably not had any bad police interactions..
2.And you you have NOT FOUGHT THE FIGHT FOR CIVIL RIGHTS LIKE YOUR PARENTS AND GREAT, AND GREAT GREAT GRANDPARENTS HAVE.
You are able to shop anywhere you want to, dine anywhere you choose to, work anywhere you choose to, run for political office If you so choose.
Sure, I would be foolish if I stated there is no police brutality, but you CANNOT equate that with racism.
George Floyd, according to the toxicology report had several drugs in his system, including, but not limited to, coke, fentynal, amphetamines, and Lord knows what else. This in NO WAY NEGATES WHAT THOSE OFFICERS DID. THEY SHOULD ALL HAVE THE BOOK THROWN AT THEM. All 4 were eventually arrested, and the child side in me thinks that had they been arrested sooner a lot of these tragedies could have been prevented. But, my adult mind says, it doesn't matter, if they had been arrested the things that happened would still have occurred. It's sad, all these businesses that were burned, looted, everything that could be stolen taken, and defacing property. I was watching a small business owner in Brooklyn who was cleaning out her store that was looted and destroyed. She is black, her response to BLM?? It's a home…it doesn't mean anything bc she is black and they did what they did to her business.
This brings me to the Retired Police Captain in MO David Dorn who was murdered, and as he lay dying, one of them live streamed his dying on Facebook.. I have had ppl tell me that it was white ppl or anti's…I HATE TO BE THE ONE TO INFORM YOU, BUT THEY WERE ALL BLACK. Most of the destruction has happened in Blue states…this should tell y'all something. Red stars are opening up more and more everyday. My question…when the Governor's of your states open them back up…where y'all gonna work?? Y'all have done an AWESOME JOB OF DESTROYING YOUR NEIGHBORHOODS. Please don't misunderstand, I am in no way minimizing what happened to George Floyd, Eric Gardner or anyone else who died while in police custody, but the numbers don't add up
May God strengthen this family 💙💙🙏🏾🙏🏾
At 4:59 he said all these ppl came to see my brother 🤔 how can they see him the casket is closed 🤔🤔 something ain't right
How come they didn't mention when he did 5 years for robbing a house with his drug gang holding a loaded gun to a pregnant black women's belly..
He hear you brother 🙏His looking down on all of of us right now with sadness 😇 love to you all❤️✊
From New Zealand..my heart breaks 💔😭😭😭
