If the laws are Unconstitutional and/or benefit the criminals...then I applaud anyone BREAKING THOSE LAWS.


You do know, at one time, it was the LAW that blacks could not use the same bathroom as whites....in your opinion, should people have just obeyed and complied with those laws?!

Just another cop in a Democrat run city killing unarmed black people. These cities are controlled top to bottom by Democrats. All we have to do is look at Detroit, Baltimore, DC, Minniapolis, Portland to see that Democrats are incapable of fairly policing their own cities. They only make them worse

Democrats have proven over the last 50 years they are incapable of policing their own cities. What next? Free high rise low income apartments? I would suggest not using the name " Robert Taylor homes"

It allows the Lawyers in those states to use it in their Arguments. Federal laws supercedes state on "some" laws on the books.

Example: When Alabama had on its books segregation, The Federal system had to step in and say, nope.You can't do that.

GEORGE FLOYD (1974-2020)
George Floyd, 46, died while being arrested for passing a counterfeit twenty dollar bill in Minneapolis, Mn., on May 25, 2020. George was a lifelong drug addict and career criminal whose interests included selling cocaine and fentanyl, robbing defenseless women during home invasions, and spending time in prison among others like him. The cause of death is undetermined but George, unsurprisingly, tested positive for methamphetamine and fentanyl, two of his favorite recreational drugs.
George recently moved to Minneapolis to get a fresh start and to leave Houston, where he had accumulated at least three convictions for drug offenses and aggravated robbery while armed with a firearm. The fact that his most recent arrest was for a non-violent offense shows that George had finally found his way.
George is survived by several children from several different baby mommas, none of whom had seen him for years because he was only recently released from Texas State Prison after serving a five year sentence for his robbery conviction.
Funeral services will be held on various dates all over the country to honor this pillar of society. Mourners are invited to join violent demonstrations to honor George's memory. Molotov cocktails are requested in lieu of flowers. Looting and burning other peoples property would me a nice way to honor George's memory.

I didn't know MLK was in prison for cocaine and armed robbery x 2 (one of which involved a pregnant woman)

What law did George Floyd violate?

If you are going to accuse him of breaking a law then tell me where you seen in the video footage where he even exited his vehicle from the time he parked on 38th until he was pulled out his vehicle by the Defendant Lane.

So if the video footage shows him never getting out of his vehicle then wouldn't that possibly suggestion that Floyd never went into the store?

FYI, the burden of proof is upon you to prove that he even broke a law. Moreover, since the $20 bill turned over to Police which the store manager was given by his clerk as the counterfeit bill was determined to be a legitimate $20 bill, why do you claim that a law way even broken?

So you seriously believe that the 160 pound officer caused the asphixation death of 247 pound Floyd when he couldn't even produce any contusions upon Floyd's neck.

Even the medical expert for Floyd's family claimed that the knee to the neck in and of itself could not have caused the death of Floyd which he claimed resulted from the knees of the officers upon both the back and neck of Floyd that resulted in Floyd's asphixation. Likewise some members of the Minnesota State legislature actually claimed the Floyd's urine could be seen draining out of Floyd's dying body as he was being murdered by Chauvin.

Yet the Body cam footage of the police officers which the MN Court refused to release to the public, until they were made public without the Courts consent showed that neither Kueng and Lane had their knees on Floyds back or torso area. Even the liquid that was seen on the street around where Floyd was being restrained was shown in Body cam footage to be condensation dripping off the rear AC unit on the patrol vehicle and not urine.

It can't even be claimed to be theoretically possible that Chauvin's knee caused the death of Floyd by asphixation any more than anyone could claim that covering one eye of someone could have caused them to go totally blind.
