George Floyd Protest/Riots

[volfanjustin]

do u know him personally? seems a bit harsh

He held a gun to a pregnant woman’s head and was in prison 5 times. No I won’t celebrate him as some sort of hero.

Cheeseits, can't we all just get along?

 

[volfanjustin]

Come on man.

Again he didn’t deserve to die, but are you good with him holding a gun to a pregnant woman’s head?

 

[mr.checkerboards]

I bet LG is watching with extraordinary interest, wondering how in the hell Tucker Carlson got back on the air Waves.

I mean once again hes spot on. Tucker speaking so much truth

 

[volinbham]

Not surpring, you have turned into a white guilt joke. You want to be accepted by the libs here and you are perfectly fine with him holding a gun to a pregnant woman’s head. That’s the guy you celebrate mr white guilt

Trouble following directions I see.

 

[zeppelin128]

I can assure you he has been on his knees in front of many men

So now you are going to be homophobic? Covering all your hates tonight I see.

 

[volinbham]

Cheeseits, can't we all just get along?

 

[volfanjustin]

So we have one on record saying he holds a person up as a hero who puts a gun to a pregnant woman’s head. Anyone else?

so we've prevented the average citizen from having family funerals because of COVID, but since George Floyd is a political opp all that doesn't matter

It’s different because he’s black and the media has made it a show.

Bham is one of the most level headed posters here

This is one thing that does seriously piss me off . I’ve listen to NGV about this but I watched a man I didn’t know ( I’m guessing in his 50s) break down and cry in front of me a few weeks ago because his mom had died in NJ ( I believe he said ) and he wasn’t allowed to be with her when she passed . These F’in politicians playing with people like that then posing for photos so they can be seen fighting the good fight does seriously piss me off .

He used to be, not sure what happened but he’s joined the white guilt crowd. Anyone who celebrates a guy who done what Floyd did is not level headed

You seem to be fixated on men and their body parts. Are you hiding something?

I agree. The funeral thing has bothered me for awhile. The ability to step over their own rules is disgusting.

I think maybe Tucker and LG are the same person and that person pastes here to gauge what people in the real world think.

Over charging/multiple charges puts pressure on the defendant to make a deal.

The system is set up to make deals.

There are not enough courtrooms, judges, or prosecutors to be able to take every case to trial. Not even close. Judges, as a matter of routine, encourage parties to negotiate a plea.

I don't know the exact percentage of cases that are plead out but it would surprise me if it were less than 90%.

Some links on the subject.

Only 2% of federal criminal defendants go to trial, and most who do are found guilty

Most criminal cases end in plea bargains, not trials

How many criminal cases actually go to trial?

He accepted after the man was shouted down and guilted into a fake apology. How big of him lol.

Might be the dumbest thing you've posted, and that is saying something.

Why is it dumb? Other White people have done it. Were the ones that got down on their knees and begged for forgiveness dumb?

 

[Ten_Titans]

Might be the dumbest thing you've posted, and that is saying something.

Because you already did it in the 90s?

I kid I kid.

I do not doubt any of these stories.

The bank one is contingent (somewhat) on when he asked for 10K; before or after she called the cops. 10K is the cash limit that triggers bank reporting (our stupid drug laws). Would want to know more about this story but as I said I don't doubt he's faced scrutiny due to his race throughout his life.

Only one I questioned about being race related was being asked to leave a restaurant because of his hat or not wraring a nice shirt. They do enforce dress codes at some places.

I could see a possible different perspective to every one of his incidents.

Some may have involved a person with racist views. Possibly none of them involved that.

If you're going to walk thru life thinking certain people are out to get you, for whatever reason, you're going find those incidents whether they're true or not.

Haven’t you heard , Covid isnt contagious if there’s a worthy cause being heralded and endorsed by the media . A deadly virus on vacation. Smh

It’s priorities. The big power grab matters more than letting grandma live a little longer.

the arrest record i saw for Floyd said his last arrest was 2007. is this what u are referencing?

Eh, him and his ilk have been throwing gay jokes at me for a while because of Pete. As I've said before, they are more obsessed with Pete's sexuality than Pete's husband Chasten.

Yes, grandmas have dropped in the rankings.
