I don't know what you're saying.

Evil is unimaginative?

google the banality of evil. Hannah Arendt. It means that all the people who do outrageous things such as this are normal every day folk....

Let's see.... Put people out of work, put them on edge with exaggerated claims on a killer pandemic, push them around so they can't go anywhere or do anything. Tell them they have to stay home and can't get out. Just in general make them go stir crazy. Then have an incident where they go out and protest and wonder why they then go crazy. Yeah, this lockdown was pure genius.
CNN arranging to have its own headquarters vandalized was a nice touch.

I agree with this. Why the use of seven-eight minutes of excessive force - kneeling on the neck - on a man already handcuffed and lying on the ground. That cop reminded me of those pictures we see of the proud great white hunters kneeling beside their trophy. Maybe the cop is on steriods. He is clearly a mean SOB who gets off on this. He may not have 'intended' to kill, but deep down he wanted to. And, he succeeded. Why those standing by did nothing? Were they so afraid of their brother in blue - or are they, too, mentally disturbed sociopaths. I heard Floyd on the ground, addressing this cop as 'sir' - he was not a threat - probably never had been.

Thank you. I see it the same way. He was proud and they supported him. His actions are and will be forever a moral obscenity.

So they had activated those, and they all knew they were on video.

I'm also quite sure they must have seen the camera(s) in the crowd.
For most of the nine minutes the police officers stood away from Floyd except the one pinning him down.

- The cop and Floyd knew each other
- The officer that murdered Floyd, his wife was arrested in the past for check fraud
- The Asian officer and the lead killer are related
- Even though the officer's wife filed for divorce I believe this is just a legal tactic so she doesn't loose their assets
- Many of the protestors are PAID protestors, are out of state
- The man that burnt down autozone and the police stations and target was a white officer (some seem to think an intelligence officer)
- Releasing all these videos of black people that were killed months ago is no coincidence
[B]Now here is the thing, all of these death by officers and riots/protests all happened just a few years ago - interestingly enough both are/were election years[/b].
- Take a look at who funds black lives matter!

- The video keeps getting played and we keep all getting played! This is a GAME! These are all old tactics!

Hogwash. There was no intent to kill anyone. No proof.
