So the constitution isn't enough to protect the rights of the individual and another law is needed?

the house will pass a baloney sandwich full of rodent droppings if it was properly named. Call it the 'peace on earth' bill and the house will overwhelming pass it.

Content be dammed, goes unread, so why do we pay these idiots to represent us when all they really do is resent us?

"Floyd, 46, an African-American man, died when he was detained with Chauvin kneeling on his neck for nearly eight minutes. His killing sparked weeks of nationwide and global protests, many of which were led by Black Lives Matter activists"

The BLM crew twisted this into a racist act. I watched the video many times and the only outcome I got from what happened is that perhaps officers need more training on how to deal with people who are freaking out on drugs. His knee was merely holding his head down, not suffocating him. After all, Floyd stated he couldnt breath long before the officer did anything at all. His color played no part in what happened in my opinion, he was just a scumbag that was having an anxiety attack due to the fentanyl he was on. Lets not defund the police, but perhaps provide more money for training, so that in the future, situations similar to this dont end the same way.

This reform bill is a joke just like our current administration.

Lets pander and name something after a drug addict who contributed to his own death. Oh that's right, blacks should never be held responsible for their own actions. The left constantly reminds us of this.

Granted although more white people are killed by cops than any race no one can name them so if a bill was named after a white person, no one would know what it was about.

BLM and the entire Democrat response to this is built on a LIE.

All I want to know is will the Democrats again kneel with those scarves draped on them? A picture is worth a thousand words

It is, for most individuals . However the Democrats lately have embraced the concept of” groups” , rather than individuals. That’s there MO. That concept has always existed, as Women and the Right to Vote was a practical and logical expression of the concept, but now we are seeing it expand. That’s behind identity politics. When you can structurally collect groups , it overrides individual rights because to a Group, individual rights are not the intended purpose. And that purpose is many times special treatment , most of the time rooted in feelings and emotion.

Opioid use does not cause anxiety attacks.

No. Identity Politics decide to divide us and keep us infighting and weak while they take total control.

Oh, and we aren't a Democracy.
