Reports are that Floyd had just tried to pass a couple of counterfeit
$20 bills.
Which may be why the cops had come in contact with him to begin with.
Secondly, although the treatment of him during the arrest was in-excusable, and the cop who was kneeling on him such that it put him
in dire life threatening danger should be prosecuted, Floyd is hardly
the stuff of martyrs.
According to his past record he was a convicted felon. He had arrests
for drug possession, theft, and was convicted of an armed robbery in
2007 for which he was sentenced to five years in prison. In the course
of that armed robbery he held a gun to a woman's stomach and threatened
to kill her if the money wasn't forthcoming!
Theft, various counts of possession of cocaine, criminal trespass, and
he also used several aliases. According to a toxicology report he had fentanyl and methamphetamine in his system when he died.
He and the cop responsible for his death knew each other and worked together. They were on some sort of security team at a night club.
Questions of `how did Floyd get such a job with his record'....`was
there some sort of grudge between him and the cop who caused his
death?' won't come up anytime soon.
Anyway, none of that matters to the left....they were looking for an excuse to get a free new plasma tv and a bunch of top shelf whiskey,
and Floyd is a bolt out of the blue for them.
His death was unnecessary. Even prosecutable. But not in any way an
excuse for murder, looting and arson.
Consider the possibility -- he works a bar. The bar takes in a lot of
bill. If he were knowingly passing counterfit currency, wouldn't he
have left the area?

You're a nice guy for wanting to give a suspect the benefit of the doubt. There's a possibility that he didn't know he was passing a counterfeit bill.
What has happened to George Floyd was tragic and wrong, but why does America
have to put with it's cities in many cases with the burning, rioting and looting.
I hear the chants in the street demanding respect,
but your standing in the middle of the street being a menace to society,
as you in-peed traffic and many cases like what happened in Albany, NY as
you force Exit 6 off of Interstate I-90 to close to all traffic again
because your standing in the middle of the street being a menace.
You're looting department stores walking out with 60" + TV's that you didn't
pay for.
You're destroying Black businesses, your killing other black people.
Yet your scream and chant as you continue to demand respect.
It's does not work like that.
His "crime", if there was one, was not in any way an excuse for murder. There is never any excuse for looting and arson -- but you should not paint all of the thousands of peaceful protesters with that brush.
Why are you against the police?
You can't assert that all lives matter unless you assert
that black lives matter.
Yes -- you should open your eyes and your mind. There was rioting and looting by a small number of opportunists at first. That has been replaced by peaceful people protesting the systemic injustice that has been going on for a long time.
Why is there a national movement, to de-fund the Police.
To take some of the money used for violent interaction with the people
and put it towards more productive community service. It does not mean
to eliminate the police.
These people chant about wanting and demanding respect and equality. As far as equality they are as free as I am or as you are.

free to walk or jog down your street without someone deciding that they
do not belong and then chase them down with guns? Are they free to get
on an elevator without noticing that the woman who is there tightens her grip on her purse?
Within my lifetime, I can recall going into a restaurant for lunch and observing a black couple who had to go to the back door and get food to eat in their car. I can recall that my schools had no black students.
I can recall observing black analysts being denied promotion for no good reason, even though they were as qualified as others. I can recall when it was against the law for a white and a black to get married. Most of these things are no longer true, but the stain and stigma remains.

Blacks have been equal in schools since the civil

That is simply not true. The budgets of predominately black schools
have been less than those of predominately white schools. Hence, not equal.
Your facts are lefty fictions, you ever hear of opportunity zones, why don't you read up on what the President is doing for Urban kids in schools. You might even learn something.
No one is chasing them out of town with guns aimed - that would
illegal and punishable by law.
Tell that to Treyvon Martin or Ahmaud Arbrey. Oh -- you can't do that because they were chased with guns aimed and were killed.
We all know the Treyvon Martin Story, and that is no one to put on a pedestal. He was a thug, and also a kid who Obama once said could of

He tried to protect himself after he was accosted and threatened.
I used the appropriate expression. Have you not watched any of the videos showing them rushing up to a man standing quietly and grabbing him and shoveing him into an unmarked car? Or the video showing them using baton sticks to attack a man standing with his hands up? What else would you call such tactics. They are deliberately inflaming th protestors.

Sadly, the trend of fatal police shootings in the United States seems

Brown in Ferguson, Missouri in 2014, police brutality has become a hot button issue in the United States. The number of homicides committed by police in the United States is often compared to those in countries

The Black Lives Matter Movement, formed in 2013, has been a vocal part

With good reason, perhaps because England has stricter gun control laws. Also due to the fact that most British police do not even carry guns -- they don't feed the need to do so.

It is the point because of BLM they continie to get it very wrong they have been indicating this misinformation about the topic, they often
say that more blacks are killed than whites, that is NOT the truth.
Duh -- the quote is explicit that it about shootings of blacks by police officers -- why are you trying to muddy the water?
Nope just the facts Dale and those facts prove that more whites are
killed by police, not the vise versa. Which shoots (sorry for the pun) holes in this narrative that more blacks are killed then whites.
What about Chicago? They have the strictest gun laws in the U.S. Yet people are still killing each other by the many hundreds every weekend
on the Southside of Chicago.
With good reason, perhaps because England has stricter gun control laws. Also due to the fact that most British police do not even carry guns -- they don't feed the need to do so.
Then someone with a gun means w/ bad intentions will slaughter the
copper in England .
There is another video that I have seen that shows exactly what I previously stated that Brooks fired the tazer as he was running away
from cops.
Here ya go

Says a lot.
Firing a taser "IS" a deadly weapon according the District Attorney of Georgia as was found to be the case when different cops used a taser on
The video also explains why Brooks ran, he had a criminal record and
if arrested would of been jailed.

The point was and is that blacks are killed by police at a higher rate than whites. Stop trying to deflect to other arguments if you cannot address that point.
I am deflecting anything but did provide the actual facts that prove
that 1. I am not deflecting
2. I have proven that your statement is inaccurate.
It depends. If it were always a deadly weapon, then why bother using it instead of a gun? It is only a deadly weapon in some situations -- and this was not one of them.
Because Dale. Brooks ... did ... have ... a ... gun ...
There is no area of confusion or no ability to twist either, when it
fits your narrative. You can't have it both way when it suits you.
The District Attorney ruled that the use of a taser "IS" a deadly
weapon.
I did not see or hear that in the video -- show me the time spot where
it occurred.
Again the video can be found at
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5QEnGkIbzA
1:34 and then from there it shows in detail what those charges were.
Really? That is not in any of the reporting. Enlighten us all as to
your evidence that he had a gun during the incident that led to his
being shot in the back.
OK since it was not on the video in question, you dug up some other
video by a youtube blogger. I'm sure that if one searches enough they
can come up with some source to say anything they want to say. In any case, looking at time 3:12 the blogger goes on to claim that the DA has declared that a taser is a deadly weapon. He presents a chart from the
GA code that he claims supports his statement. However, it explicitly outlines conditions under which an object might result in a charge of aggravated assault. That article doe not mention a taser, and for the case in question the taser as discharged by Brooks does not fit the definition in the statue. It was not discharged in a manner that did or could result in serious bodily harm.

Quote the ruling. When is a taser a deadly weapon?
I do not believe
that it can be considered as such when discharged randomly in the air DS>from a considerable distance. Site the ruling that shows I am wrong.

Try again if you can come up with a credible source.
