Lunacy from the Left!

[Yehren]

She makes a very good point about black Americans "martyring criminals." She said that blacks cater to the bottom denominator of their society. She also said that blacks are the most vicious and racist people in this country when it comes to taking down their own. (I have to disagree with her about this when it comes to whites hating on Trump and his family.)

She explains that George Floyd spent 5 years in prison for pointing a gun at the stomach of a pregnant woman, whose house he and several friends forced their way into and ransacked. He also spent time in jail several other times for various crimes, mostly possession of cocaine. She refuses to martyr a man who would do these things....

None of the officers could have been aware of Floyd's more than a decade-old criminal history at the time of the arrest.

The 46-year-old moved to the city in 2014 and worked as a bouncer at a local restaurant, leaving behind his past in the Houston area.

Floyd had made changes to his lifestyle and a recent video has emerged of him pleading with younger generations to make good choices and to stop gun violence.

He had been there himself years ago, first being arrested in his 20s for theft and then a later arrest for armed robbery before he turned his life around.

Ironic. A criminal starts a new life, turns himself around, and then is murdered by another criminal.

Did you watch the video?

Define bad.

The antonym of "good."

I guess no one is going to show us any evidence that the protesters are being paid to protest, by "globalists."

Who would have guessed?

@Yehren , did you watch the video by Candace Owens?

I think I am beginning to understand were you are coming from....peace, love, smoke pot...watch chem trails.
Another thing is that you know nothing about law enforcement or law. Here is the deal, likely they did know him by name. But it does not matter if they knew nothing about him...it does not matter at all. They tried to detain him and he resisted arrest. It does not matter if he only stole a piece of gum. Minor offence....right? When you start struggling with law enforcement officers it is now a violent crime....Injuries to officers are additional charges....up to ten years for stick of gum. As it is this is a large violent drug filled career criminal. Not knowing is what law enforcement is up against all the time. They cannot play patty cake with violent criminals....I would rather see the criminal get hurt.

If you think so, you've been puffing too much of that whackweed yourself. Never got into that habit. Chemtrails are right wing idiocy BTW.

Love is a pretty good idea, though:
Matthew 22:37 Jesus said to him: Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with thy whole heart, and with thy whole soul, and with thy whole mind. [38] This is the greatest and the first commandment. [39] And the second is like to this: Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. [40] On these two commandments dependeth the whole law and the prophets.

It's O.K. to like peace, too...
John 14:27 Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, do I give unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, nor let it be afraid.

But lay off that pot, hear?

They tried to detain him and he resisted arrest.

Well, that's the problem. Witnesses say he didn't. And the video doesn't support the initial claims of the police, that he was "resisting."

The one where she kept playing the race card during testimony? She lost all credibility with me after that.

Some guy named Raz with an AK-47 declared himself the leader and police of Chaz...

Well if they can start from the being, when they first started talking to him, that will come up in court.

The old man was a completely staged event. He talked with the cameraman and got him in place and then took a stand in front of the police and would not move....pretty funny how he faked it.

 

[Grailhunter]

Another aspect of this and maybe one of the contributing factors to why Floyd resisted arrest is that if he was passing counterfeit money he probably knew that it would fall under the jurisdiction of U.S. Secret Service. In that case his race card would not help him much. Of course he was not making the money himself so those connections the Secret Service would be interested in. If he told them his life would be short because you are talking about a criminal organization that does not leave loose ends.

One good thing about the riots is that it proves social distancing outdoors mean nothing. Large groups congregating in auditoriums prove the same thing. Lets start opening this country up for business!

Comparing Leftist abuse and police abuse does not justify either side.

But, as for those police who have the attitude that these actions are justified; We the people accept these 57 resignations; your ilk will not be missed!

Are you actually justifying ANTIFA terrorizing old ladies by showing police doing their job... It's no comparison
If it was up to me the cops would be much more heavy handed in dispersing these ridiculous riots
Im talking arrests, tear gas, rubber bullets, armoured vehicles, batons, tasers, flak jackets, the works

 

[Yehren]

Are you actually justifying ANTIFA terrorizing old ladies by showing police doing their job.

I'm showing you what terrorizing old people really is. Screaming at people is rude and intimidating, but it's certainly not the kind of violence that those police officers committed against old people. The police who committed those crimes have now been arrested in one case, and the chief of police in the other case apologized and is now looking for the criminal who knocked down the old man with a cane. I'm guessing that "ANTIFA" is your word for "people I don't like", since you offered no evidence that any member of "ANTIFA" was involved.

If it was up to me the cops would be much more heavy handed in dispersing these ridiculous riots

Fortunately, it's up to the law. And so the criminals who attacked that old man have been brought to justice. Infuriating as it might be to some, we are a nation of laws, not a dictatorship.

Given the revulsion Americans have shown to that kind of lawless violence, I think you'd be better off finding a country where your values are practiced, than hoping it will be tolerated here.
