What if Floyd George wasn't a criminal and didn't know he was passing a counterfeit bill?

@Sebastian_1989 : The man behind the counter said he didn't think George Floyd knew it was a fake bill, saying he took it and was prepared to lose twenty dollars out of his own pay, just to be nice. Who cares if he resisted arrest? He was in handcuffs, didn't have a weapon, and was down on the ground before he was murdered.

@Sebastian_1989 : I see what you're saying and it makes sense, up to a point. Using statistics to justify wrongful police action is like using the rule-book to win a game. It might be legal but it's not sporting. And life and death isn't a game.

@Sebastian_1989 : I agree that news is being blown up, if not puffed up, by all the news hosts repeating the same story, but it is real. I wouldn't call the suspicion of police action hate, even if some people do have hate for officers who have murdered Afro-Americans. We see their faces and hear their names, so it's not unusual to get personal with them.

@Sebastian_1989 : I can agree with your general overview and use of statistics, being big on statistics myself. I also know every altercation is a singular event that is dealt with by those involved, so it's all good.

The mob is in your mind.

@yapandasoftware : Talking about cannons, when I sit on a big one that is still aimed over the river at America, I go boom. It must be sad being you, living in a world determined by media pressures when media changes every day. Your mind must be a big swirl going down the media drain.
