George Floyd’s Brother Speaks Out On Chauvin Trial | MSNBC
Hurry up,buy stock in KINGSFORD!!!
Congratulations to Genevieve Hanson, witness for the prosecution. She has been nominated for 3 Daytime Emmy awards! Go girl!
@Anne Jackson Yes, the white off-duty firefighter who wanted to check Floyd’s pulse, was refused by the cops, and kept on telling THEM to do it.
@argon65 That man had no interest in preserving Floyd’s life.
@Anne Jackson what’s with liberals and their fascination with skin color all the time? Maybe because the media shoves black vs white in your face everyday? Yeah, they really did a number on the easily manipulated.
Really wow that Amazing ☺👏🏾
@Infinite Universe neither did Floyd lol
27 million im pretty sure there getting along jus fine.
@Anne Jackson why ? Because i refuse to let the liberal media to convince that the the Martyr of my generation is some methed out fentanyl addict..live long felon robing an killing his an my own people with poision in our community..that hes the new dr king…that im not smart enuff to be held accountable for my actions that im oppressed when i wrk hard an do pretty good for my self..that black men are a target when jus as many or more white men are killed by the police..an if u are black u need to wake up.
@Redjam111 Redjam111 I have no idea what you are saying
Keep calm and listen to Metal!
@Justin Colt
Lol
Ok lubomirov vlachenko
I believe youuuuuu little princess
@SourDoughBill Iol You have to take of the facts into consideration not just the facts you agree with. I am not saying that Mr. Floyd got a pass. When you refuse to see that Mr. Floyd actions are a factor in the trial. You already gave
Mr. Floyd a pass for his actions that day.
@Rodney Bean Laugh at yourself all you want, Floyd didn’t get a pass and the fact is, nothing he did before or during his arrested warranted his callous murder, but nice try.
Is there a lesson to be learned from all this?
Don’t do drugs!
@Redjam111 Redjam111 take your pills
@Crispin Fornoff
Lmaoooooo
Hey little Pushkin, at least use a different troll account.you’ve burned this one up Komrade
@Redjam111 Redjam111 Dude, again, take your pills. Not everyone is a troll, just you.
@Crispin Fornoff
Hey I understand if I were a queen vladz troll clown? I’d deny it tooooooo after all ? Who wants to be a queen vladz trolling princess Pavlov?
Even trolls don’t wanna be trolls 👍🏻😂👍🏻
The estimated lethal dose of fentanyl in humans is 2 mg. The recommended serum concentration for analgesia is 1–2 ng/ml and for anaesthesia it is 10–20 ng/ml. Blood concentrations of approximately 7 ng/ml or greater have been associated with fatalities where poly-substance use was involved.
FENTENAYL FLOYD- 11NG OF ILLEGAL FENTENAYL.
METHAMPHETAMINE- 19NG.
AKA a SPEEDBALL.
Respiratory failure is particularly likely with speedballs because the
effects of stimulants wear off far more quickly than the effects of
opioids.
For example, fatal slowing of the breathing can occur when the
stimulating cocaine wears off and the full effects of the heroin are
felt on their own.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Perfectly balance as all things should be let’s keep it even
Sounds like the most caring wonderful criminal one could come across.
@SourDoughBill Deflect? So your deflecting from the fact that BLM and other groups participated in george floyd marches,then rioted and started looting afterwards. Come back and talk to me after you visit reality
@Eric Nunez Robles Yes, son, deflect. This is about the trial of Chauvin for Floyd’s murder. You can try to make it about BLM and “other groups” rioting and looting, or even North Korea’s nuclear testing for all anyone cares, but you should at least know those are all deflections.
He will be nominated for BLM sainthood along with Michael Brown, Eric Garner, Jacob Blake, etc. – all wonderful contributors to society!
@SourDoughBill
The deflection is bringing up faux oppression as an excuse for career criminals
@SourDoughBill sorry I wouldn’t want to offend a relative!
Write down your lovely comments & read them out loud in your churches or family gatherings. You believe in them enough to share them here.
Yes, a grown man walking around f**ked up on drugs? Get a life!
@Kevin MitchellTruth.
@Eric Nunez Robles And I noticed you didn’t call me a liar. Very telling.
@Eric Nunez Robles So stay in your country. Why we having all these border problems, if ya’ll so proud. I didn’t migrate here.I was stolen.
I cannot forgive or overlook the crimes George Floyd committed because I’m black
Juicing up for movie or mini series deals!
It already is a movie. What part of this do you think is real?
Lmaoooooo
Queen vladz trolling GOLUBOI are chirping on cue for that extra ration of turnip soup
“MOMMA I CAINT BREEF!” lmao funny stuff
I’ll start shedding tears for George Floyd as soon as I’m done mourning Goliath the Philistine.
Just watched a video @ GF 📹 the comments were so RESPECTFUL
The GF also admits to previously being a source to both prescribed and street opoids for herself and Floyd. She also testified the guy Floyd was with on that day was another source for Opoid and that she did not like him. She also admitted to the fact that her nick name was mama on Floyd’s cell phone. This case us about cause if death and police policy one if the autopsy supports Floyd had Fentalyn in his system enough to have caused him to OD it also shows no brusing no injuries no broken bones to beck, back and shoulders. . Its wrong to constantly show one side of the story.
The family settled for $27 million and its after MPD banned its police policy which permitted arm and neck chokes for resisting arrest. Why did the EMS take so long? May truth and justice prevail no matter the outcome!
Some guy he probably hasn’t seen in 20+ years.
Yep, and they got 27 million for it
Watch all the videos back to back if they haven’t been deleted and you’ll see the lies and fraud.
Like Millions of other less fortunate people, he was hooked on opioids and had a criminal record. But where was his community and family? If he had gotten some help things could have been different.
Waaaaahhh!!!
Wahhhhhh!!!!
A terrible sad way to die. I am angry how much sadness he has cost after his death. No one is a winner.
Except his family. They were awarded 27 million
Zimmerman is suing the Martin family & Crump over their having put up a fake main witness against him (Rachel Jeantel). When is that going to trial?
I had my wife put her knee on the back of my neck. She’s 120 lbs. It had no effect on my breathing. I told her to put all her weight on the one knee. Still no effect. I turned my head sideways. Still no effect. A litle uncomfortable, yes, but never did I feel any problems with breathing. No, I didn’t have handcuffs on (I did have my hands held behind my back) and no, I didn’t have someone sitting on my middle back. But my unscientific test really surprised me. I thought for sure I would at least have SOME difficulty breathing. George didn’t suffocate to death. What else could it have been? This week should be real interesting.
Floyd’s brother’s opion and feelings are irrelevant, stick to facts and evidence, stay on track
