George Floyd Good Read

[SLUDGE FACTORY]

Yes it was irrelevant to the case, but the media were making him out to be some kind of saint. Would you put a bloke on a pedestal who had 9 drink driving offences, and consider him to be a lovable rougue? The law is the law and we all have to abide by the rules, plus the article was written by the perception changing Snopes website.

Are the police above the law ?

It appears that after some pressure , the officer who suffocated george floyd who we agree was a convicted criminal , is being charged with murder

So either the law is the law and we all have to abide by the rules , or it isnt ?

It's probably not a good thing for the officers charge to be upgraded as it means he's a lot less likely to get convicted on it. The burden of proof is a lot higher.

They are two separate things. Not one person has condoned the actions of Derek Chauvin, but Floyd is viewed in two different lights, as being either a saint or a sinner.

it would seem only by you. none of us really care about his past, only how he was treated whilst in police custody.
