An Obituary For George Floyd | All In | MSNBC

  1. Looting and riots are terrible spin-offs to peaceful protests which on the other hand happen on the event of police brutality. Police brutality happens out of the blue. For all the people who are more concerned about the looting than police brutality: speak up against police brutality first and you won’t see lootings in the future again. If you haven’t mourned any of the black victims of police brutality over the past decades before then please don’t be a hypocrite to start mourning the black victims of the lootings all of a sudden. You’re just trying to shift the narrative a bit while securing yourself with an improvised moral deposit. No idea what imbalance you felt the need for to even out so eagerly before addressing anything else prior to that. Your comments will look ridiculous as decades pass, just like the interviews given by white segregationists in the 1960s where they said they just wanted to protect black people.

  2. beautifully done, ty mr hayes. my love and prayers to the floyd family, my heart is breaking along with you :'(

    1. George should not have died, but he wasn’t all of us. He was a career criminal out after 5 years for armed home invasion on a pregnant woman, actively committing crimes, and peaking on meth when he died.

    2. @Gary Ray Cardoso , Hey foreign pig copulator,
      Do you really look like a chocolate clown from kindergarten?

    3. @Ann van de Kew And you presented not one fact. Just some more trained slogans and punchlines. Do better and give me something tangible and real to work with. I know you can.

  3. Racism is wrong. However none is innocent. I have seen white against black while black against other coloured people. The world is doomed.

    1. One thing you should keep in mind is the idea of systemic racism and the power dynamics that are at play in America. Sure, people can have racist behavior against other. But that is a whole different thing than a white majority, using the systems of law enforcement, education, voting, criminal justice to oppress a minority. North America had 250 years of slavery. And only 150 years of no slavery. Those ideals don’t go away over night.
      Be well, be safe. 🙏

  4. wait for the moment they blame it on the corona virus, that he couldnt breath. in the upcoming trial.

  5. Wow @ least that’s the memory she will have and yes he’s part of change remember him that way always the legacy he was trying to leave u hopefully 1 day will be a better world

  6. No favors? To be compensated for your labors & disenfranchisement isn’t a favor. W r u talking about? We need to be compensated!!!

  7. And all it took was the life of a man, I have to think the price was too high, let’s just hope we don’t squander it like we have so meny times before.
