GEORGE FLOYD RIOTS

What..?! Lol... what did you say??? Cause looters come in all colors...
My response:
You are wrong. I don't go by the color or race of a person. I go by the actions. There are good and bad in every race. I go by that. How would you describe the looters and rioters? How would you describe people that want to hurt us? I'm all for the cause of this protest. I'm not for the destruction

Talking about not seeing what is going on?
Did you read the autopsy? Not any sign of harm done to the neck.
He wasn't choked.
He died because he was in bad physical shape, drunk, and drugged up.

Two autopsies determined the manner of Floyd's death to be homicide.[13][14] The Hennepin County medical examiner's autopsy found that Floyd died from cardiac arrest during application of "neck compression", also noting as significant conditions "arteriosclerotic and hypertensive heart disease; fentanyl intoxication; and recent methamphetamine use".[14] A second autopsy, commissioned by Floyd's family, found that the "evidence is consistent with mechanical asphyxia as the cause" of death, with neck compression restricting blood flow to the brain, and back compression restricting breathing.[15][16][13]

That’s the thing though, amongst the protestors (Who have every right to be there) there are those who are taking advantage of the situation for their own personal gain. They are the ones who don’t give a crap about the real issues.

The second autopsy was paid for by the family of the man who died.
If you pay you get the results you want.
They didn't even do a toxicology test.

I only post in the same way as people post to me.
Did you ask the same thing of him?
I wouldn’t have said anything to you either had you not called his gf a “nigger.” I mean, how do you even know he’s dating a black woman?

People should learn that not everyone is a cur.
Sometime we play a little rough.
Did you object to anything he said to me?
What he said to you and what you said to him are different....
I understand when you say the cops cannot tell apart who are the peaceful protestors and who are there to use violence. I have cops on my side of the family and I am also married into a family who have a couple felons. It is what it is.
You speak a lot about black on black crime and why nobody pays attention to it. They do. But here’s the thing, if you grew up knowing only that type of life and there’s no opportunities for you outside of that, of course the cycle will continue.

I know a lot of things. I was hoping that some people would realize I usually know what I am talking about.
I know a lot of people. I usually treat people just like they treat me.
If they want to argue and fight, I am your man.
If they want to treat people with the respect they would like to be treated with, I am your man.
Like I have posted before, I want equality. I will treat you just like you treat me.
We all have our own beliefs. That is every person's right. This isn't a world where some people have rights that they demand no other people are allowed the same right.

That’s a whole different topic too. This one is about excessive force used on an unarmed man. Resisting arrest or not, the officer had back up.

let’s throw color, gender, everything out the window. Does not even a small part of you think they used a bit too much force? If that was your son, would you be okay with the way he was treated?

Thank you for explaining. You and him may believe that what I said is different than what he said to me. That is your opinion. I have a different opinion. Does his opinion mean more than mine?
I have a sister who killed her husband. My father was a deputy for a while. He also burned down a jail house when he was younger. I have been on both sides. One thing we never did was steal from others or destroy property of others.

He resisted arrest. The autopsy showed he was not choked. Hell, they sliced his neck into slices looking for some damage. Didn't find any. Do you think the man played a small part into what happened to him?

One other thing. I once stood off the swat team for several hours. You could say they were pissed off.
When I went out, after a good nights sleep, six cops jumped on top of me. I knew better than to resist. They were rough but I had it coming. They threw me in jail. I heard them talking. They said they should throw me into the cell with a man who had stomped a woman's brains out on the blacktop a few days earlier. We talked for a day. They finally put me in another cell and wanted me to bail out. I refused. I slept through a few more days then they threw me out of the jail.

I didn't cry, piss, and moan. I didn't loot. I didn't burn anything down. I paid for my mistake and went on with my life.

You’re right. You’re allowed to have an opinion and no, his is not more important than yours. I am assuming you called his gf that because he called you a racist for speaking your mind about crime statistics? I am thinking you said that to purposely piss him off? To show how racist you can be. Either ways, I don’t tolerate that word nor any other racist words and that I won’t take back...

It is horrible what is happening in the Jackson community. I wouldn’t know anything of the sort. My husband tells me all the time that I’ve had a sheltered “princess lifestyle.” I don’t know about crime in Chicago either nor much about any crime. We get tickets here for parking in front of our houses. That’s the most crime you’ll see here. But from the outside looking, my husband is the only one who didn’t turn out that way bc he had opportunities presented to him with a lot of help. With a lot of outside help and even he says that without it he woulda became another statistic but like I said, that’s a completely different issue.

I don’t think the looters care about the cause. I think they are using it to their own advantage. You are entitled to think differently but I don’t think most cops will do the right thing... I think a small percentage will do the right thing under any circumstance just like there’s a small percentage who will do the wrong thing. Then there’s the rest, majority, who will turn a blind eye. That’s the main issue, isn’t it?

Whether Floyd died or not by the officer, it still is excessive force.

You won't accept that word? Have you listened to any music lately? Do you know how much money blacks have made just from yelling that word and motherfucker all through their song?
I was raised in a very poor family. I was old enough to help my dad put it in when we first got running water and an inside toilet in our house. I was in grade school when we got our first TV. I know what poor is.
My parents taught us that we don't steal. We don't damage other people's property. If we do something stupid be prepared to pay a stupid tax.
All of my parent's children went to college. We got good jobs. We paid for every bit of it.
There wasn't any affirmative action for us. All the boys went into the military and served our country.

Anyone who says a whole race of people can say a word but I am not allowed to can kiss my ass.

But not all of the protesters are turning a blind eye. When the looters break into a store many of the nice protestors are filling their arms with anything they can carry also.

Now the democratic party and the black lives matter are calling for the defunding of police.
Sure this all is about one man. Wake up.
