A group of about 100 residents from around the Carrollton neighborhood gather for a daily “Take a Knee" solidarity vigil for nine minutes in remembrance and solidarity for the murder of George Floyd and many others, at the corner of Oak Street and Carrollton Ave. at 6 p.m. in New Orleans, La. Tuesday, June 9, 2020. The daily vigil will continue through the November election. George Floyd’s funeral was held in Houston today.

Smart plan, start limbering them up for the sky screaming position for post-election.

If so, they better clear their calendars for about 4 years and 5 months.

And no chickening out, folks. Rain or shine, get out there on your knee.

A good troll would be for someone to go out there with a tablet, stand in front of them and play Floyd's porn video.

Seems peaceful. No harm no foul. If they want to pay their respects go a ahead. Rather this than them looting.


On another not the guy is a criminal. Doesn’t really deserve this type of treatment.

They'll swear this isn't a religion even though they've now decided they'll have daily mass
