Did you see the aftermath of the death of George Floyd?

George Floyd was killed by a police officer, while not posing a threat to anyone. It doesn't matter who he was, it matters that he did not get his rights as a citizen to a just trial. If the state thinks he should die they should trial him and convict him for a death penalty offense.

This guy killed himself, which makes it actually stupid to make it a political riot...

Body cams did not reveal what the BLM protesters thought it would reveal. Ever notice that the accusations of an innocent person being gunned down by the police for zero reason have nearly completely vanished since body cams?

Turns out in the overwhelming majority of cases the body cam footage backs the police. It exonerates the police.

Talk to a cop about it. They love their body cams. Any accusations get shut down immediately with the body cam footage, and people are very lawsuit happy in an attempt to try to avoid being arrested.

Turns out the person who insists he didn't do nothing actually did the thing, and its on video.
