  1. End police brutality
    End their immunity
    End their union!!!!!

    We’ve all had enough!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  2. “Hate is the complement of fear and narcissists like being feared.
    It imbues them with an intoxicating sensation of omnipotence.”—Sam Vaknin
    “An evil exists that threatens every man, woman, and child of this great nation .
    We must
    take steps to ensure our domestic security and protect our homeland.” Adolf Hitler

    1. @Rose Johnson TsosieDid you know that twice as many whites that were unharmed were killed by police officers in 2019 compared to how many that were blacks.Where was your out rage then. This is a fact look it up. It is still a problem . Why is it a bigger problem when it happens to a black person. It’s because the Democratic Party wants to control you and make it seem like it’s one-sided. And you are a mindless sheep so you buy into it. Wake up they’re controlling you.Don’t let your hatred blind you.

    2. @Jeff Chrapcynski Police brutality and authoritarian government has always been an outrage. I don’t care what color. However, you are comparing apples to oranges. I’m guessing that there are a considerable amounts of people of color who have been killed that did not report. In cause you are unaware, Tsosie is a Navajo name…tho I am NOT R J-T. Tell those people that they should be more caring of the problems of white people. My ancestor was killed as a witch in 1662 for having an opinion. I have a problem with people who have a problem with uppity women also. As someone who used to work in a domestic shelter advocating for children…THAT is my biggest problem. I am NOT a Sheep.
      I AM a Lion!

    3. @Rose Johnson-Tsosie Check what I said and you’ll see that I never said you were black. I’ll accept your apology. You are anything but a lion. Seek the truth

  3. Remember his allies and enablers and be ready to shock the world, because people around the world think we are sleepwalking through this assault on our constitutional/human rights.

    1. @Charlie 06 AND OUR COST OF LIVING IS LIKE HALF OF YOURS AND WE BREATH FRESH AIR NOT THAT SMOG CRAP!

    2. @Lars Jones I read that 3 times and still can’t tell if you are sarcastic or serious. Use /s for snark?

    3. @Peachy Keen Sad state of affairs when there are so many out there that say such ridiculous things you even have to wonder, huh? Edited and snarked 😉

  4. No wish to learn from the sad truth of the situation; only to double down on the lies…

    1. @Sam Boudreau Yes, trying to buy food to eat with a counterfeit $20 bill during a pandemic where so many people lost their jobs…should equate to death on the spot….May God hear you and give you personally the life lesson of your life.

    2. @Ewald Bracko: I’m capable of thinking for myself, analyzing situations objectively and apply logic and deductive reasoning…you are a brainless follower. You are not….and you support bad things happening to good people.

    3. You’re right Diogenes of Seattle. Its gotten difficult for all colors to not generally profile from decades of falling victim to yep, another brother raised wrong making wrong life choices. If anyone no mater the color tries to defraud me, it’s like trespassing on my property and I will neutralize that threat. What would you do if someone trespassed on your property? God Bless us all and breed responsibly so all new born babies have equal chances. Having said this, I hope I’m proven wrong but I honestly think that this systemic change that we all need isn’t going to come around anytime soon.

    4. @Metal Guru that’s funny because all GOP rhetoric nowadays goes back to social conflict theory & Marx. (Via Mussolini)

  5. This has been simmering for years George was the final straw that broke the camels back keep protesting peacefully until you get change and remember that the whole world is with you best wishes from Britain

    1. @Penny Sutch You’re just a peasant of the left… they want you to believe in racism while their Corporate masters use your blood sweat and tears….. They care less about you than raw sewage…. once you folks realize that, you could turn your entire race around in less than two generations.

    2. You folks need to set up an agenda to define what kind of systemic changes you want to see.
      It shouldn’t end with an overdue police reform. There are also other underlying issues like racial and environmental injustice and inequality which require also systemic changes.

  6. Joe, you need to remind the protestors about the Virus that’s still very much here and how to stay safe when you are out

    1. @KarmicVibez there is no coronavirus. where is the evidence masks prevent fake virus transmission?

    2. Its a little to late for precautions now.if there were anything besides a mask it wasnt being used.

  7. Not ONE person with a mask on in that memorial. Someone else’s memorial will be happening from Covid in 6 weeks from this….

    1. @Debra Jones Said the person who watches and believes the lying, racist, bigoted, anti-semitic and anti-christ channel for the stupid, lazy and useless people.

    2. @Debra Jones The only people systematically holding down black men are other black men. Respect family, respect education, stop killing each other, and the rest will be too easy. That’s the only help anyone can ever give you.

    3. @Freedom & Liberty Bot LMAO! Right out of the KKK starter’s manual…thanks for the laugh. It’s at your expense, but whatever…

    4. @Freedom & Liberty Bot Fox? Nah, don’t watch it much. That makes you lose brain cells pretty fast. I do a quick check to see what the crazies are up to.

  8. Nevertheless a third of americans seem to follow Trump whatever he does, they think like him, they believe like him that people who think otherwise need to be kept down by whatever means. None of them believe in the Constitution.

    1. @Larry Garland *Get out of your mom’s basement Larry. She’s tired of cleaning up after you* 🤱

    1. *+Jeff Chrapcynski* Everything isn’t proportionate and from top to bottom it’s the way the system is designed which is exactly the problem so you can keep all the blatant logical fallacies and false equivalencies to yourself as the bs you typed up in your so-called retort is clearly your own reasoning as opposed to mine but I do wholeheartedly agree that that reasoning sucks.Nothing you’ve said is even remotely close to the point I’m making and comparing a sports league of all things to something affecting everyday people just trying to live is not only textbook false equivalency but it’s also intellectually dishonest.

    2. @hueykhalidX i’ll agree on that… partially… see amy cooper; but if you are racist and looking for a party… look no further than republicucks.

    3. @hueykhalidX wrong. neonazis and racists goosestep for drumpf and the republicucks. read your history… southern strategy.

    4. @LORD EXPLOSION MURDER!! DAMMIT! May I remind you that you were the one who brought proportionality into the conversation by saying that they were more white people than black people to fit your narrative. And now you want to backpedal? It’s very clear to all of us in this conversation who the racist is and it is not I. Qualified White people are denied jobs because a quota has to be fulfilled.I’m just trying to bring this to your attention. Let’s face it no one wants to see white people running up and down the basketball court.that are unqualified Also no one wants to see people that are unqualified taking the jobs of those that are qualified. Why does the Democratic Party have to put everything on race. We are all human beings and we should be employed by our ability.

  9. I wonder if Justice Roberts STILL thinks that there is “No racism in America anymore”

    1. This was not racism and George was no saint. He was out of jail after serving 5 years for armed home invasion of a pregnant woman, committing multiple crimes, and peaking on meth when he died.

    2. Dear The Forsaken, PLEASE stop plugging the ‘race’ card as the excuse to play ‘I’m the victim’. That black man that lost his life (another one) was in process of being arrested for fraud . . . . . . HELLO? If he was for example at a public library reading a book (one of hundreds of services paid for by tax payers) in this land of milk and honey, he probably wouldn’t have ended up this way. Its gotten difficult for all colors (please include all of our minority police officers) to not generally profile from decades of falling victim to yep, another brother raised wrong making wrong life choices. If anyone no mater the color tries to defraud me, it’s like trespassing on my property and I will neutralize that threat. What would you do if someone trespassed on your property? God Bless us all and breed responsibly so all new born babies have equal chances.

  10. How are some white people just waking up to this. I’m an old lady now but grew up in the 60-70s and have always been aware of the injustices. Hope that change finally happens, we will be a better nation for it.

    1. Because they don’t have minority friends, or they live in the middle of nowhere and don’t understand the problem exists.

    2. Raynie Cox It is why their enemies find it so easy to overwhelm them. Ignoring the hate directed at others dehumanizes the soul…. And now their cries are falling on deaf ears as the Scum of humanity target them.

    1. Multiple studies have shown no police bias in shootings. An unarmed black man is more likely to be struck by lightning. Insult me without facts. I will not stop stating the truth. Maybe 1 or 2 unarmed black people die from police where the cop is found guilty. Per 10000 arrests for whites 4 die for blacks its 3. Keep supporting rioters destroying black communties, killing people and attacking people. Pay attention to the facts not MSNBC.

    2. @Brian Fergus it pretty pitiful when you have no real argument so you just insult people like a 3rd grader

  11. He is staying at 39 to 45 percent amongst his supporters so we have an idea of how amerikkka functions

  12. Amen, Reverend! As a white boy with big black friends who I worry about each time they step out their front door, I hope this will be the catalyst period to implement meaningful change in America. It’s about time.
