"Years and years of oppression and bigotry. Hugely disproportionate levels of employment and distribution of wealth. Dozens of unreported assaults, attacks and worse"

The bloke who died had just beaten up a pregnant women and was armed with a pistol.

FFS.

Anyone know how many US citizen deaths they've been in US custody in recent years?
I tried googling but could only find stuff about migrants.

"I tried googling but could only find stuff about migrants."

You wont find it, it'll be "there" but it wont be easy to find - and there's a reason for it.

The whole global society has transitioned over to being 'run' by technology, and there's some people who can control this technology.

He should have been tried for his offences whatever they were. And he was unarmed.

As for the part of my post you repeated. It's all still true regardless of what he did or didn't do. One man committing a crime doesn't excuse his death and it definitely doesn't excuse centuries of racism you berk.

I think you're the only one who seems to think this about what he did. Everyone else, including the American law system seem to be saying a suspected fake $20 note.

Either way it's disgusting how that poor chap died and is completely unacceptable.
USA is on the brink of civil war and tbh, I think its not surprising before real change is seen.

contrast the words of George Floyd's brother today with those of Trump...

One asking for peaceful protest and justice and an end to the looting and destruction - the other calling state governors 'weak' and'jerks' while saying they should 'dominate' and threatening to deploy the airborne military...

Watched the statement from the coroners inquiry which has found that he was murdered and he died of asphyxiation due to the pressure on his neck AND on his back

Looks like most of the the riots have been setup and agitated by the loony "ANITFA" group.

Seem like the protesters are sussing it out. There were pallets of bricks appearing randomly on corners with white men and women all in black, totally masked up telling the protesters were the bricks were.

A couple of vids showing them being sussed out, the 3rd one is almost sinister, who's paying these people to do this??

Antifa caught out1

Antifa caught out2

Antifa caught out3

There's a lot more, but if you don't believe then there's no hope.

of course America is screwed - look at the actions / words of the idiot they elected!

the real tragedy is that it will continue to be those with less - less wealth, less power, less opportunity - who will be the most screwed yet again.

I genuinely hope and pray that this is the start of a real change - but it's centuries old in it's rottenness

I think Spike Lee said it well...

"The land was stolen from native people, genocide was committed against the native people, and ancestors were stolen from Africa and brought here to work," he said.
"So the foundation of the United States of America is genocide, stealing land and slavery.
"Any architect will tell you that if you don't have a strong foundation, the building's going to be shaky, and shaky from day one... This original sin has not been dealt with since the birth of this country."

Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
