@queent3343 he's nicknamed The Amendment King because of his ability to get people agreeing on bipartisan legislation. Do some research.

@pantherinparadise9686 he's been politically active since the 1960s. He's gone to Canada with people to get them cheaper insulin. He's marched for unions. There's no living politician who even comes close to what he's accomplished.

@JustMe-dn9fh police weren't called. How is that their fault??
11
@drcontrol484 guess what? He's been politically active since the 1960s. Having a million then was much more rare...smh

@andrewcarlton6196 you obviously didn't watch the trial and listen to the facts

@andrewcarlton6196 I have family and friends in law enforcement. If someone stops breathing you don't continue kneeling!!

@wowjuicy5126 also it was odd she called Derek her favorite son. Isn't he her only son??

@carlmorrow1600 anyone would stop breathing from Chauvin and the other 3 cops restricting his breathing for 9 minutes. The pulminologist explained it very well during the trial. Even if drugs were a factor, when someone has trouble breathing they are supposed to be returned to the recovery position. Even Lane the rookie suggested it! That's all they had to do. The prone position is known to be potentially deadly.

@aspiknf they can also be used for singular. Not always plural.

Now the other 3 cops must be tried and held accountable for aiding and abetting 2nd degree murder.

@doctordewbie7681 I have respect for good cops, and it's heartbreaking when they're killed. But when they don't do their job they need to be held accountable.

Children have opinions, too, and sometimes they're smarter than adults.

I'm so sorry. How tragic.

@fabiolaflores8919 I'm glad you mentioned foggy brain. There are so many disorders and illnesses which cause short term memory loss. Sleep deprivation makes it even worse. I pray for peace for the family members left behind 🙏

@slipwagon7944 Pfizer has been fully approved. Now what's the excuse?

@TitoBobbyPh BLM started under Obama.
2
@weewoomemes he might, he's still got more federal indictments pending..
2
@lilianmaher2809 yes, Lane (who was at Floyd's feet) suggested it, and Chauvin said no. Chauvin was the senior officer.

@nickyyy6697 I got the vaccine. You'll be ok. I had no side effects from either shot. I feel relieved that I don't have to worry about getting COVID-19.

@broccolihart1 ever heard of airplanes? People carry germs with them when they fly on planes. Smh

Good for you if you're healthy. There are now over a million dead in the US in just 2 and a half years.
1
@spankyssurprise1361 yes, what someone wears is definitely the most important quality about that person 🤪🤣
1
The other three will be held accountable, as well. Hopefully this is the beginning of changes made, to hold more bad cops accountable.
1
To be fair, there's nothing he can say now to console Mr. Floyd's family. At least he offered condolences...his mother didn't do that..

@americantruth1948 Dr. Fauci has worked with every President since Reagan in the 80s. He's a highly respected world renowned expert in epidemiology.

@wakeup9225 no he didn't say that..smh.

Yes, it's surging in multiple countries because of US elections..🤪

People get flu shots every year. And shots to prevent pneumonia. Boosters are nothing new.
1
Those are anecdotes. But for what it's worth, I know several people who are unvaccinated and had it multiple times. I know of no one who is vaxxed who had it more than once. The 2 people I know who died weren't vaxxed.
1
People like you are the reason it spreads so easily. You care about no one but yourself.
1
Did you go to public school? If so, you received shots, plus booster shots.
1
It's a virus. It doesn't care if you're "over it"
1
In the US..then why is it surging in other countries too?
1
Why was the sound of children screaming edited out? Why are they sanitizing what happened? Who are they protecting? Pure negligence on the part of these officers. I'm a parent and I'm disgusted.
1
@jeffreycheng5984 please don't reproduce. Your lack of comprehension of epidemiology is astounding.
1
@roberteason9560 sure, the kids are all snorting coke 🤪🤡
1
@roberteason9560 it's hilarious that you think you know what's going on in 5 states 🤣
1
@roberteason9560 what on Earth are you talking about? Do you normally interact with people online like this?
1
@Luke Gilson eating healthy and exercising is always good. But it doesn't protect you from a highly contagious virus. In my state we are 5th in the US for vaccination and our COVID-19 hospitalizations and deaths are way down, so are the number of people testing positive.
1
@jeffreycheng5984 what's COVAIDS? 🤪
1
@nateb4543 they've studied Mrna for a long time. Technology has just improved to the point that the vaccine can happen more quickly. Remember when polio vaccine came out people were hesitant to take it, too.
1
@jimmyspencer798 they didn't call the police and file charges. Wasn't anything to do with police Smh
1
@GiantDad56 it's a problem with our mainstream media owned by billionaire corporations.
1
I'm a white woman who is devastated by what happened. I'm glad he got 22.5 years, and I hope he gets more from his pending indictments. Now it's time for the other 3 cops to be held accountable for aiding and abetting.
1
If you would've payed attention to the trial, it was explained in detail how it's possible to speak, and yet still be unable to inhale enough to get more oxygen.

Thank you Bernie! #NotMeUs 🔥

@tishawnmitchell8098 don't forget sleep deprivation. It causes more accidents than drunk driving. It's also used as a torture method. Sleep deprivation messes with a person's brain. Wishing peace for all involved.

His mom with her whole "favorite son" comment, combined with the fact she didn't show up in court to support him except for that day, gives me the creeps.
