Nope, the judge didn't state that, he said the defense may be able to raise it as a potential issue on appeal.

Do you seriously not understand that drugs are smuggled into countries every single day?

And let’s not forget that Sleepy Joe let migrants into the US which greatly helped cartels.

'Smuggled' in enough to keep nearly every city in the country in supply...and on a consistent basis? LOL


The DEA are the ones catering to the drug cartels, the two groups work together and rely on each other, without the DEA targeting prescription opioids, cartel supplied heroin would not be selling like it is today. The DEA is a terrorist organization, they are scumbags who do not deserve to call themselves Americans.

Hilarious that you’re laughing at that as if it’s not true.

Quite the conspiracy theory.

How do you expect police to simply get fentanyl under control?

Is it glorification or representing the imperfect human that doesn't deserve to be killed for a petty crime....I don't know I think that depends on your perspective.

When did counterfeit bills, resisting arrest, being under the influence of drugs, etc..., become a petty crime?

By all accounts he was lucky he managed to live as long as he did with his criminal lifestyle and penchant for illegal narcotics. He is no great loss to the world and he will not be missed by anyone. A lowlife criminal thug who finally got his comeuppance for his horrible life choices. He is absolutely not worth glorifying or remembering. Notice how I am not even using his name. It is not worth remembrance.

Floyd was a human being with flaws. He died passing a phony 20. In the USA we don't kill people for passing phony 20 dollar bills -- not yet anyways.

He has become a symbol of over sealos police authority. That's all.

That's not glorifying.
Floyd not murdered, he died from swallowing the drugs he not suppose to have on him.

Yup, in fact it is. Here AP News calls him "a heroic everyman."

George Floyd was respected as a man who spoke from hard, but hardly extraordinary, experience. After his death, he has been held up as a heroic everyman and embraced as a universal symbol of the need to overhaul policing.
