“You can’t fight fire with fire. Everything just burns, and I’ve seen it all day – people hate, they’re hating, they’re hating, they’re mad. And he would not want that.”

~ Courteney Ross

On Monday, 46-year-old George Floyd was killed when a police officer kept his knee on his neck allegedly for eight minutes while three other officers watched. Floyd was a suspect for a low-level beef of passing counterfeit money, but he wasn’t resisting and his hands were cuffed behind his back.

However, we haven’t seen the video from the police bodycams, although it’s hard to understand why an officer would keep his knee on Mr. Floyd’s neck as he cried out that he couldn’t breathe.

George Floyd’s boss Jovani Thunstrom and his fiancée, Courteney Ross said the deceased was a “gentle giant” to those who knew him and were fortunate enough to hang around him.

His fiancé called for people to forgive the police since it is what he would want. He wouldn’t want buildings burned or looting. She said he was a God-fearing man.

Ms. Ross has a daughter with Mr. Floyd.

How will the enemedia talk about Kung Flu 24-7/365 with this going on?
The rioters need to keep their distance when liberating some Air Jordans and big screen teevees.
Please use gloves to handle looted items and no more than one big screen per looter.

Where was the rioting or even outrage by Blacks in Minneapolis in July 2017 when Justine Damond, a White woman, was seeking help from Minneapolis police officer Mohamed Noor, a Somali-American. She had not committed any crime and approached the police car responding to her 911 call. The Black Somali who was driving the patrol car shot across his partner in the passenger seat killing her. I don’t remember any rioting anywhere, ever when Whites are victimized by Blacks.

That was not a “black” man. That was a trigger-happy muslim who whould not have been on the police force, or in this country to begin with. People like him hate women, so I have no problem understanding why he shot that poor lady. He’s right where he belongs. Under the jail. As for the rioting, they need to stop that crap. I remember when I was much younger than I am now, and I use to destry my own stuff because things didn’t go my way. This is what we have now. A year from now, they’ll be crying because “We ain’t got nothing.”

You can bet that BLM doesn’t care that a bad cop abused his authority, only in spreading chaos and mayhem. Hats off to the fiance’ for calling and end to the rioting.
