re: George Floyd's Rap Sheet from Texas

His prior felonies do not matter. Do you think the cop knew and decided to do us all a favor?

1. A person's criminal history is the ONLY thing cops have to judge you by.
2. The cop and George weren't strangers, so number 1 doesn't apply.
3. There is a LOT more to this story than you are being told.
4. All things being equal, I don't think there is ANY way to justify what the cop did to Mr. Floyd. He's still a human being, albeit with a long rap sheet.

George Floyd's Rap Sheet from Texas

Right.
He was a repeat criminal. He was also a narcotic addict and a porn actor. He also may have attempted to pass a counterfeit $20. He also resisted arrest.

Then he was taken down, prone, in the street and kneeled-on WHILE ALREADY HANDCUFFED, for over 6 minutes until likely dead, when he was found to have lost his pulse. Yet a cop kneeled on his neck nearly 3 minutes more after that.

Yeah, I mean I'm trying to pay attention and follow you here. So let me restate my question: how does his past criminal history shed light on the timeframe when Chauvin had Lloyd on the ground with his knee to the neck? Which is what the trial will be all about.

Sorry. I didn't realize I cut the alias part off when I cropped it.

I think the point is that while the way Floyd was killed was completely unacceptable on every level, does the world need to be putting Floyd on a Tshirt, being hailed as a hero by Hollywood elite and MSM and going on a 5 state funeral procession? I do not think so. George didn’t die for this cause. George died because he was high out of his mind and was not in the right mind to comply with law enforcement. The officer who killed Floyd is arrested and justice is being served.

If people want to protest police brutality then do that. But leave George out of it. That guy had not one single quality a child should aspire to emulate.

So you're implying that it's okay to kill someone in the street who's been incapacitated and hasn't stood trial for their crime as long as they've committed a bunch of felonies in the past?

---

Nope, but what we ARE saying is that he chose a life that was more than likely at some point going to lead to his ruin.

EXPLAINING isn't condoning.

Well if he had no felonies then he likely would have way less interactions and violent interactions with the police.

This is the problem. The black community enslaved by the left hero worships the wrong people. If a white person that has a record a mile long is killed my reaction is I don’t care about that person. Even if it’s fricked up way to go I’m not burning the hood down over some meth head.

When you defend criminals it completely invalidates your point of being hunted. It also disrespects the memory of those in the 50s and 60s that actually suffered real institutional racism.

If anyone viewpoint is institutional racism it’s the left with their expectations that minorities aren’t capable enough of fixing issues in their communities. Issues which were caused by the left.

If people want to protest police violence protest Taylor and her BF being attacked by Louisville police.

I guess it's fair game for informal discussion, but none of that's relevant to the central issue of the current criminal case against the officer.

Floyd was murdered, no doubt, and the "cop" responsible should go to prison. My point is, the story we see in the media, is not reality. The "cop" lives in Florida, like currently. None of his neighbors in Minneapolis knew he was a cop, even though it says he was for 19 years. Then, they GAVE UP the police station and it was burned to the ground. Then the Wells Fargo bank is destroyed, but not looted, and burned to the ground. This is not about a "black guy" getting murdered by a "white cop." This is about money laundering, on a massive scale.

He voted in Florida, has a house in Florida. The investigation should be focusing on the club where they both worked for the last 10 years, but they're avoiding it completely.

The obvious irony of that gif is lost on you.
