George Floyd was out of work during coronavirus before he was killed (Saint Floyd)
NY Post ^

In 2007, Floyd was charged with armed robbery in a home invasion in Houston, in which another man posed as a water department worker in an attempt to gain access to a woman’s residence, according to court documents.

When the woman realized he wasn’t actually a water department worker, she tried to close the door. That’s when five other men got out of a car that had just pulled up and forced their way inside.

According to charging documents, the largest man in the group, whom the victim identified as Floyd, “forced his way inside the residence, placed a pistol against the complainant’s abdomen, and forced her into the living room area of the residence.”

WTF?

given: he may have been a bad guy.

Is that a reason to execute him, as this thug cop did?

Well, thanks to the rioters, a whole bunch of Target workers are back on unemployment in the Minneapolis area as Target will be shutting down more than a dozen of their stores until further notices. Of course, Target's statements mentions nothing directly about the looting, only the safety of their workers.

He had a heart attack.

That's why they layed him down and called for medical.

Did you read the ME's summary?

With an officer's knee compressing his throat against the street?

Oh, but I thought he was a gentle giant that wouldn’t harm a flea?

Great guy.

It still doesn’t justify killing him.

No one suggested that but you. Did ya think a person who’s death set off coast to coast violence, rioting, looting, arson etc, his history/background would somehow be kept secret?

I don’t think so.

Life is about choices.

Those who have come short in society and humanity sometimes have a bigger impact on society than those who live life doing the right thing.

The political left in society preys on the worst and most fragile and turns that into ultimate political power and cultivates it generation by generation.

We as Conservatives do not have an answer to this when we are overwhelmed. The tipping point is near.

When I was a 7 years old, an intruder broke in my house and held my mom at knife point and assaulted her in front of us kids.

As you can imagine, I have a special hatred for those home invader types.

And yet he didn’t choke her to death. He was a thug but this cop acted like human garbage.

A 5 minute knee to the throat would probably give most of us a heart attack.

Floyd.
The video is still ‘out there on other sites’ under the same title.
Not sure I should copy title here...but it is Floyd.
