George Floyd posted this video on social media criticizing the "young generation" for engaging in the same types of nonsensical violence that rioters are currently demonstrating in Minneapolis in the wake of his tragic death.

The guy held a knife to a pregnant woman’s stomach during an attempted robbery.

It was a long time ago and compared to many blacks’ rap sheets his is relatively tame.

Seems like he tried to stay out of trouble but failed.

I’ve not watched the video (if there is one) and I will not be on the jury so what I think of the cops’ guilt or innocence doesn’t really matter.

I do want them to get a fair trial and i’m not sure how that is going to happen.

The truth is that people who are truly protesting for George Floyd are not (for the most part) creating the violence and looting. There are OTHERS doing this in Floyd’s name.

Jeanine Pirro gave a powerful, damning monologue about Derek Chauvin last night. He really is a sick dude.

The young bystanders very politely appealed to his conscience while he was on Floyd’s neck. But he had none.

Floyd was no saint, but this is not about Floyd.

And the riots weren’t about this incident.

Let’s not be naive.

Communism lies about paradise.

In paradise, the millions of law enforcement folks across the country would ALL be angels.

It’s not possible. In fact, some will be monsters and some will slip through the cracks.

That happened here.

You are NOT on the jury and neither is Jeanine.

If the cop’s past matters then the perp’s should too

you can’t have it both ways

I wonder if they're going to play that at his funeral in Houston.

HA! Sometimes I say the craziest things.

I really hope no one here thinks the riots and destruction were about floyd.

That would dem naive territory.

There is a jury that will decide things.

I thought only dems decided cases out of court.

Seems like that’s what some of you want to do.

I’ll wait.

And Derek Chauvin gave them the perfect pretext for riots.

We should all hate him for that.

There is no doubt that murdered, innocent, George Floyd was dirty when he was younger..as many African-Americans are due to broken family and society shortcomings But...as he grew, served some prison time and matured, he became like John Belishi in the great movie “The Blues Brothers”...he, “Floyd”, saw the light.

However, the virus which was way overblown by “Idiot Experts” by the dozens causing the instant shutdown of the American Economy had a depressed influence on him as it has on ...The Floyd lost his job!!! Not good for him or his family depending on him to live. so..the innocent Mr. Flock fell back to his old ways of letting drugs keeping him cooking.

We can thank mostly, IMHO, the mass of Democrat Party expert college professors, doctors and politicians that are working so hard to keep the USA economy down by locking out the Economy by political order!!! ‘Shame...but, no surprise. Democrats have been screwing American Blacks ten times worse than any bigot could ever do for many, many years!!!

So...on a bad day Mr. Floyd is murdered in open daylight by a nutcase, twisted, useless, hateful Bad cop who should get the death penalty IMHO!!!

As for the protests and demonstrations and looting, property damage...that is sad from start to finish. However let me assure the protesters and their thugs were just about all young folks, who probably have never worked a day in their lives. This will pass folks and go away. Shucks a NASCAR Race gets 100,000-200,000 people for a race at Daytona or Talladega. To close, IMHO, any African-american that supports Democrat, Joe Biden or adores Barack Hussein Obama is both fool and idiot. the eight year performance by Obama/Biden to aid American blacks failed 100%!!!

RIP, George Floyd...you poor innocent man!!! God bless and let him keep safe and loved in his and your paradise!!!

Sure he did. He did when he put a gun to the stomach of a pregnant woman while his homies ransacked her house for drug money.

Neither Floyd nor Chauvin were any good. No one is commenting that, while high on fentanyl, he was sitting in the drivers seat in the car before he was arrested. I suspect, going to drive off , and possibly killing someone.
Both of them were going to kill an innocent. Chauvin got there first.

Its likely not going to be a fair trial either way and oddly it we will be the reverse of what most may think...the cop is more valuable a to the agitators..

the left will overcharged this guy and get him off do have the outrage explode..that anger is money and power to the people in charge of it..

This cop is now their golden goose that fuels that anger they are not going to give that up

Watch for this... do the Prosecutors pursued the angle but this cop and Floyd knew each other from the club they both worked at...

Because if the prosecutors can show that connection it makes it easier to convict the cop.. not harder.. it makes it easier the raise the charges to murder 1 or 2...it makes it easier show it premeditated thinking of cop he had a bug up his ass for Floyd and I gave him “extra”

But that waould undercut the race angle.. undercut the rage.. it go from race to personal...

So they will not ..the political agenda need this to be random cop murders random black man...

So my bet is the prosecution will be political and the prosecutors will shy away from trying to show any personal connection between these guys even though that would make it easier to convict the cop

The politic of this right now.. in jail

The Aryan brotherhood wants to shive this cop in the neck just to get rid of him and the problem

And the Brothers want to keep him alive so they can wave the cop around as the bloody shirt

The cop will get off just before the November elections hes the October surprise
