Floyd had landed five years behind bars in 2009 for an assault and robbery two years earlier, and before that, had been convicted of charges ranging from theft with a firearm to drugs, the Daily Mail reported. And caught passing a counterfeit 20 dollar bill ,and thats not all . Im not condoning the officer's actions but he was in fact not such a great guy and his bad decisions actually caused his death.
A very brave young lady who will either be disregarded by the fake news people or will put a spin on everything she's said.
I find it interesting when she said 50% of crime committed in America involves black people. Yet, they are only 13% of the total population.
Lots of facts she reports ...here is a re-cap of the last video...some things are similar to what she said before, but many other interesting info in this re-cap. How it all connects too with ANTIFA .
Leftlane, gotta appreciate those sensible ones in this nonsense nowadays .
His past criminal history isn't important in the moment of arrest. Doesn't matter if he's the pope or jack the ripper,neither gives the okay to use deadly force. The only thing that gives the okay to use deadly force in the moment is what's happening in the moment. Previous criminal history, though, can be an indication as to what to expect when arresting someone, for example if someone has a history of fighting the police it's fair to assume that they're going to fight again.
His bad decisions led to his getting arrested, but he didn't make any decisions that caused officers to sit on top of him for several minutes after he was obviously passed out.
Well known Candace Owens sums it up well. She is fearless and factual.
The hate the black and white liberal community pours on this girl is beyond sad. The most racist, vile comments are made towards her from WHITE people, and the blacks celebrate the whites.
None of this is about race. It is about being able to loot and supporting a political agenda/gaining votes to further that agenda. That agenda is un american.
The guy should not have died in the manner that he did and the police involved should be held accountable. However, he is by no means some upstanding citizen. He was a violent career criminal that had just committed another felony (passing counterfeit money). When you have a rap sheet like that, and the morals to boot, how do you think your life is going to end? If it wasn't the cops this time, it may have been a drug deal gone bad next time or a homeowner with a gun at some point. I don't believe the "turning his life around" crap. Every criminal that gets killed was in the middle of turning their life around. I'm sick to death of that BS story. One thing is pretty certain, he probably wasn't going to die of old age, surrounded by loved ones after doing good his whole life. He died the way most violent criminals die. Violently. Not an excuse for the police involved by any means. I'm merely pointing out the probability. He was anything but the martyr the libs are trying to portray. Here's his sheet:
George Floyd moved to Minneapolis in 2014 for a fresh start after being released from prison in Houston, Texas following an arrest for aggravated robbery Floyd died on Monday after a white officer knelt on his neck while arresting him for allegedly paying with a fake $20 bill None of the officers could have been aware of Floyd's more than a decade-old criminal history at the time of the arrest The 46-year-old had left behind his past in Houston after being released from prison stemming from a 2007 robbery He plead guilty to entering a pregnant woman’s home, pointing a gun at her stomach and searching the home for drugs and money, according to court records Floyd was sentenced to 10 months in jail for having less than one gram of cocaine in a December 2005 arrest He had previously been sentenced to eight months for the same offense, stemming from an October 2002 arrest Floyd was arrested in 2002 for criminal trespassing and served 30 days in jail He had another stint for a theft in August 1998
Saint George got 5 years for breaking in to a house and holding a gun to a woman's stomach while his partner searched for money and drugs. While not worthy of a death sentence it's close.

Many northerners don't quite understand those deep south terms , much less lived around them , as I have. That's a good thing, too, as traditional southern ways often have a sad past in treatment . The northern states , and Canada , have been largely spared such depressed attitudes . I wish all places were so.
I have seen you be a nice person on here, Boco... you must value good things and information learned in life. If you didn't, you wouldn't be so willing to add such helpful info on trapping techniques to help fellow trappers do their work better and easier, thus gaining in their lives and making better money from quality handled fur. Your videos on scraping easily a hide in sub zero weather , making that job easy . I thought that was so cool. You get no money from your advice, you offer it freely to help others. You have demonstrated a kind helpful nature to others.
Just like so many others here who do the same. That is what makes the type of people here so powerful.
Because of these things, I would like to pay back to you a wee bit of understanding, in the same motive as when you offer info to others that benefits them.
Candace is really , REALLY, not playing the Uncle Tom role.
I well know intimately, what that mindset is, being born and raised in the deep south back east. Quite different than the mid west to more northern black lifestyles. There are even different dialects in speech and terms among black cultures , depending on the south or northern area, and any interracial influence . Whole different worlds , just as in white cultures ...different dialects even among southern whites, depending on the state they live in.
I was partially raised by a black nanny of the old time southern tradition . Her name was Lula May , and she had more common sense than many whites.
The "Uncle Tom" role, is far different than anything Candace ever says, in word and the tone inflection she uses to articulate her thoughts. An Uncle Tom mindset not only reveals itself in simple , uneducated speech (even done on purpose when needed from a brilliant mind), it is submissive, placating, a countenance complete with body language of lowered eyes reminiscent of a servant to a boss.
The "Aunt Jemima " image , such as on the old syrup bottles , is a complete different genre . Of hard workers , yes, hired help who work their hands to the bone , often becoming very beloved members of the household or estates they work for, considered family . Not a few times has the "Aunt J." bailed out a white member, having their backs from trouble , even in legal matters. My Lula May was such a woman . She didn't take no mess from anyone. She gave me mindset of sayings to live by that I have never forgotten to this day. And that work.
Candace lowers her eyes to no one. Her very countenance in posture, facial expression and the brilliance of her thoughts articulated is as opposite to that old demeaning term as night is to day.
She is tackling a generation's old problem that few people of any race has had the courage to tell out loud, much less see and admit. She acknowledges the insulting terms that some whites have used , and the disgust is seen equally in her face.
The things happening these days , I especially think of people like our own Tman Tribe's resident black fella, wolfdog . Such a fun, friendly guy. What a world he lives in , the perspective he must have seeing two clashing colours, blend into a new colour tone he exists in, making it work for his happiness.
And how words from others must have deepened his discernment and patience in dealing with people , knowing most folks don't mean him harm.
None of this is about race. Candace pulls the veil away to simply show what has been an unspoken embarrassment to black culture for generations. She is trying to help all people to see the groups and organizations who take advantage of their own race, and anyone else along the way.
She reveals way beyond the incident at hand now- she shows the motives and undercurrent of control and political predation that has used these things for power and money.
Here we go again,I never said I thought she was an uncle tom/aunt jemima-that is how the progressive blacks view her as stated in many articles. Just pointing that out a fact. Not my view of her.
It is puzzling how the media have been portraying him as a "Gentle Giant" who wouldn't hurt a flea, when he's had the history he's had. He didn't deserve being killed, but they should portray him accurately, rather than raising him to sainthood status.
Tough if not impossible to bring up past crimes in court a slick lawyer would make sure it’s suppressed. Like said it has nothing to do with him getting killed all they need to focus on is the training not being followed.
His bad decisions didn't cause his death. A bad cop caused his death. What he was before or did before his death means nothing. He would never have been memorialized either if it weren't for a bad cop.

I imagine it is the same reason they reported that a WHITE cop killed an unarmed BLACK man. The true racist are fanning the flames and news like that could quench the fire.

FINALLY SOME CLARITY!! Now I like you again.........for now.

I see what you are meaning, phrasing it this way. I didn't get you the first time you wrote that.
She does take a lot of heat from them because they don't want to admit or look into the facts so they lash out with simpler insults.
If Floyd wasn't high on drugs and acting such in a store so as to alarm the folks working there , the police would not have been called to start with . Just another repeat of what he has been doing most of his life, evidently. It is sad it ended the way it did.
Attention could have been on people doing good things in opening up the economy.

If he did not fall on the ground rather then get in the vehicle he would be alive today maybe. About every case like this started with the choice to not follow simple directions time and time again then it escalates out of control.

I've said it before and i'll say it again.... all these hi profile killings of "unarmed black men" have one common theme... IF THEY WOULD HAVE COMPLIED, THEY WOULDNT HAVE DIED!!!!!!
they all gotta resist and prove their hoodrat ghetto cred by fightin the po leece….
The defense attorney said Floyd was a good boy. So did his parrents and grand parents. So did Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton. It is a real tragedy when good boys get killed by bad cops. It should be against the law.
In the Tucker Carlson bit, the big bad BLM "man" made the little white gal kneel for him and apologize for "white supremacy". Maybe if Floyd George would have kneeled for the POlice and apologized for BLM and Antifa he would have lived. Maybe?

No,,that IS what you said.You never said" the media portrays her as this" Bozo is speaking with forked tongue AGAIN.
Watched a show the other night, guy said like 40 some unarmed people killed by police last year. 9 were black 18 were white. I think it's time to start rioting, I'm sick of the police and their racist views towards us white people.

Thats way more black than white as a percentage of population-no wonder they're po'd. Should have been 32 whites killed if it were equal by percentage.

I have a question , do local cops usually arrest individuals for passing counterfeit bills ? The reason I ask is when they changed the $50 dollar bills a kid in the neighborhood ( special needs ) got a hold of a laser printer and got "rich " , he managed to pass 20 of them in our small town , even tried to buy a dirt bike from me using them , I knew right away and told him someone cheated him and he told me what he was doing . The bank knew right away too , and he got caught fairly easy . The State Police never contacted him , The Secret Service did .
From what I understand, in 2015 there were 35 unarmed black men killed by police. Last year there were 9. One is one too many, but it appears to be heading in the right direction.

I agree. But to add to the comparison, how many law enforcement officers lost their lives or were injured in the line of duty compared to those years?
Sorry, I am not very computer savy. I go on here and a couple other hunting/reloading sites. Just not not my thing. I have tried and it frustrates the heck out of me.

That’s irrelevant in a world where two wrongs don’t make a right.

Speaking of that, have they burned the merchant down that reported him for passing the counterfeit 20?

So true and so sad. Those that are trying to accomplish that agenda do NOT care how many die along the way. The dont care if our economy tanks and never comes back. They only care about expanding the reach of government and increasing the entitlement system to breed / import more voters for themselves.
It is disgusting

Isn't it puzzling why a country with individual liberties, written by its founders as bestowed upon all individuals by God, is hated by some? The Marxist collectivism theory just won't dry up and blow away and the no-name guy died 150 years ago. Marxism was a top topic in the early part of last century in this country but why-o-why are there still knuckleheads who think it'd be "fair" to have the group have rights over the individual?
I get why the smart ones (some call them elites) would figure they know best. I'm dumb. They're smart. They know best. But why in the name of Jefferson, Adams, Washington, and Madison would people support losing individual rights? Tricky to figure out.

I saw this in the military. People will trade their freedom for security and freedom from making tough daily life decisiions. Life is a lot simpler when somebody else makes all your life decisions for you and takes care of your food, clothing and shelter. Freedom comes with two possibilties. The freedom to succeed or fail. Both require many tough individual decisions that many people would rather avoid. Socialism allows people to live totally irresponsible lives, which tends to be low on stress and accomplishment. People like that.
Because Col.Sanders (Berny)told the younger generation for 8 years,that this is what the country needs. Kind of funny ain't it,that of all the people that have been interviewed by the talking heads that he has been strangely absent while this is going on? I do believe he was the one calling for a major revolution, to set this country back on the straight and narrow. Makes you wonder how many college kids,were brain washed by him and all the other educated idiots with an agenda to ,justify keeping their job.His staunch supporters hate Trump and the Democratic Party,for them screwing him in the last election. Maybe they think it's time to get even.

The amazing thing about all of this is that it has taken 3 1/2 years before the Democrat Party to finally find a case like this one to burn down the country. I thought there was systemic racism in the police force?! You'd think they would have found many, many cases prior to finding this one. Maybe, just maybe the left is pulling our leg about the systemic aspect.
Impeachment! nope.. Virus!...............nope.. Riots!...............not yet. Wait until Monday.... And those droves of drones still aren't explained....
Leftlane, gotta appreciate those sensible ones in this nonsense nowadays . Education is a good thing
No doubt about it, I think common sense shoud be more common. Does anyone remember how the left and the media treated Dr. Carson or Herman C. Cane? And then turn around and imply that we somehow limit them. It is ridiculous
