Josephus,

The fact remains George Floyd died as a result
of being arrested by white police officers.
His criminal record should not bear any relevance
to this fact.

Thomas Lane the Minneapolis cop charged in George
Floyd's killing was hired despite having a
criminal record with 7 convictions and a slew of
traffic violations.

Josephus,

You preach one thing from the Bible and do the opposite in practice.

In the words of our own renowned OxleyMoron: "Please explain."

So, why are they demonstrating against Whites when another cop is looks Arab & another looks Asian ?

Individual,

Because they're not black - they're acceptable.

Josephus,

I fully understand where you're coming from.

However, remember that just because people don't
agree with your take on things does not make
them "haters" as runner would say. It just means that
both you and he can't deal with diversity.

I was surprised but pleased to hear Mathias Cormann truthfully saying that the thuggish demonstrators were selfish for carrying on about a foreign problem. On the same news bulletin it was pretty clear that normal people are fed up with the double standards on social distancing.

I agree that Floyd's criminal record doesn't excuse his killing by cop, but it proves that he was of poor character; if he had been a decent, law abiding person, he would still be alive - as would several other people; and their would have been no reason for the opportunistic thugs and looters to run amok.

There should be a total ban on all demonstrations; they achieve nothing except more hatred and contempt.
