Pro-BLM Brits demand St. Michael image on royal order be changed; reminds of George Floyd's death
The Washington Times ^ | June 23, 2020 | Douglas Ernst

“This is a highly offensive image, it is also reminiscent of the recent murder of George Floyd by the white policeman in the same manner presented here in this medal,” added Tracy Reeve, the petition’s creator. “We the undersigned are calling for this medal to completely redesigned in a more appropriate way and for an official apology to be given for the offense it has given.”

Buckingham Palace did not reply to the newspaper’s request for comment prior to publication.

Amazing how people are all trying to out-grovel each other. One would think they might have some tiny sense of shame.

What would these people do with themselves if they weren’t in a state of constant outrage?

Better take St. George’s Cross off the Union Jack and place St. George Floyd’s face!

No, they just don’t like seeing Satan treated so cruelly. Boy are they in for a shock when they depart this earth.

[[BLM types are strangers to Logic and Reason...............]]

I think they know what they are doing, but since society is giving them an inch, they are now trying to take a mile=-

Had society stood up at the first signs of trouble from blm and said ‘nope- this nonsense stops now’ - we wouldn’t be here today tearing down all our historical statues and whatnot- but sadly the left coddled the temper tantrum throwing racists on the left and now we all have to watch the results- it aitn pretty- the children are now lording it over the adults-

Here’s an idea. If a medal - or a statue, or a painting - offends you, just don’t look at it. Look at something else.

They will eventually see the errors of their ways. And then they will apologize for what they've been doing over the past few years. They will apologize again. Over and over. And grovel. And then grovel some more.

That's one of the classic differences between Left and Right:

There's a TV show that I find offensive. As a Conservative, I shrug and decide to watch something else.

There's a TV show that a Liberal finds offensive. As a Liberal, they decide to start a campaign to get the show cancelled, make sure none of the actors ever work again, and get all copies of the show taken down from Netflix or removed from libraries and burned.
