Isn't taking a knee literally what killed him?

I don’t think kneeling changes that in either direction.

I do believe we have a police issue.

That said, why is this a federal / POTUS discussion point? What's the election have to do with any of this? It's a local issue.

Trump has been an elected official for 4 years. Please tell me how he is a symbol of alleged systemic racism?

The group in Washington that took a knee probably have what 200 combined years in Washington and have done nothing to fix the supposed racism.

ETA: The person he is running against has been in Washington for over 40 years.

By the fourth of July they will think George Floyd was a band with Boy George with remnants of Pink Floyd.

If they're only doing it from now until the election, they're admitting it is only a political stunt.

Prove me wrong.

I see a market for #BLM knee pads in the very near future...

Hopefully any potential hurricanes will cooperate and bypass their neighborhood.

The exercise couldn't hurt some of those fat fricks.

Why until the election? What does it have to do with it?

Yes. That's more like honoring Chauvin. I'm going to bring a pregnant lady out there next to them and stick a gun in her stomach to honor Floyd as well while they kneel. Honoring a menace to society and acting like it's Trump's fault that he died is pretty low on the scale of political BS.

And, truthbetold, most of the localities are prog controlled.

Weird.
