George Floyd died tragically while being arrested by four Minneapolis (Minnesota) Police Officers – Thomas Lane, Derek Chauvin, Tou Thao, and J Alexander Kueng for passing a $20 counterfeit bill. Though George was murdered brutally, nobody is aware of George Floyd’s Criminal Past Record/Arrest Timeline for armed robbery, pointing a gun at a pregnant woman and being involved in cocaine/white bag/baggie charges.
The Union Chief of Minneapolis Police (MPD) released a statement on 1st June 2020, shedding light on late George Floyd’s ‘violent criminal history’. The Union Chief, Bob Kroll wrote in a letter to his acquaintances and followers on Twitter, “What is not being told is the violent criminal history of George Floyd. The media will not air this”. He also said that the ongoing protests are results of a “terrorist movement”.
Floyd shifted to Minneapolis, Minnesota from Houston, Texas in 2014 after having served 5 years in Harris County Jail for a 1st-degree felony. Floyd intended to start a peaceful life but the decision ‘to change’ ended up costing his life.
Leaving all the violence and robbery acts behind, George pledged to lead a better life after he shifted to the new city. In his initial days, Floyd, 46 Years Old African-American, found a job as a bouncer at a local restaurant in St. Paul, Minneapolis, Minnesota. He made attempts to change his behaviors, a recent video shows Floyd encouraged children and teenagers to stop the ‘gun violence’.
George Floyd Criminal History – Floyd’s Video
George lived an unfulfilling and sorrowful life. George was arrested. Check out the George Floyd Criminal Arrest Timeline and let’s have a Criminal Background Check on him; you can also run a thorough one yourself on Information.com. Let’s see if he had an investigation being a career criminal (activities).
George Floyd Criminal Record
George Floyd Gun Pregnant: Firearm/Gun Robbery Conviction & Theft Criminal Career
According to Candace Owens, who refused to amend “George his Martyr” said that George once put a gun to a pregnant lady’s/women’s stomach and allegedly robbed a pregnant lady which is not acceptable by any means. However, there is no written statement of the same in the court records.
In 2009, George Floyd was arrested for a 1st-degree felony charge, as per police criminal records/history/past, of assault and armed robbery he took part in 2007 and spent five years in prison for breaking into a lady’s house with the intent to rob her. George agreed that he wore a blue uniform to look like a government employee to gain the lady’s trust, and eventually pave his way into the house.
The lady soon realized that the person was impersonating to be a government worker, she tried to shut the door but Floyd brute-forced his way into the house. Consequently, a Ford truck pulled up to the house’s main entrance, five people exited the truck and went straight inside the lady’s house.
According to Daily Mail (UK), the court report mentions that the victim identified George as the criminal, tallest of all the robbers, who pressed a pistol to her stomach and forced his way into the house. George Floyd’s height was 6 foot 6 inches.
‘This large suspect then proceeded to search the residence while another armed suspect guarded the complainant, who was struck in the head and sides by this second armed suspect with his pistol while she screamed for help.’
Not finding any cash, Floyd and other men took jewelry and the lady’s cellphone and fled the scene using the truck. A neighbor had witnessed the robbery attempt, wrote down the license plate number, and reported the incident to 911 instantly.
The police followed the lead and successfully tracked down the car. Floyd was found behind the wheels. Later, his identity was cross-verified with the women who reported that a tall suspect had placed a gun to her abdomen and invaded her home forcefully.
Did George Floyd Have Drugs In His System During Autopsy? What is Fentanyl?
Fentanyl is a DEA Schedule II synthetic morphine substitute anesthetic/analgesic. It is reported to be 80 to 200 times as potent as morphine and has a rapid onset of action as well as addictive properties. It is prescribed to patients who become intolerant to other pain-curing medications.
Hennepin County medical examiners released the toxicology report on June 2nd, 2020 which stated that George Floyd was indeed intoxicated with Fentanyl, Methamphetamine, and traces of cannabinoids and morphine at the time of his death. However, these were not termed the principal factors behind Floyd’s death. Floyd has an extensive criminal past related to the drug trade and use.
Read the Hennepin County’s Official Biopsy Report on George Floyd – https://www.hennepin.us/-/media/hennepinus/residents/public-safety/documents/Autopsy_2020-3700_Floyd.pdf
Floyd suffered from severe heart diseases. Dr. Gregory David, a medical examiner of Jefferson County, Alabama said “He has some underlying conditions,” which meant he would not do well under stress.
The autopsy report claimed that George died due to cardiopulmonary arrest, listing “complicating law enforcement subdual, restraint, and neck compression.” as principal factors.
As per a recent autopsy news report, Floyd was tested positive for coronavirus. County’s chief examiner, Dr. Andrew Baker ruled out that the autopsy depicts coronavirus played no role in Floyd’s death.
George Floyd Baggie: Cocaine Arrests Record
George Floyd’s criminal record includes 5 convictions related to theft, possession, and trade of coke. Floyd was arrested five times in 20 years, his last cocaine arrest dates back in 2005.
George was also linked to two convictions in the 1990s for possession and theft of a controlled substance (cocaine). However, it is not clear whether or not Floyd served his time in prison for this felony.
George was accused of a firearm robbery in August 1998 for which he served 10 months at Harris County Jail. In April 2002, Floyd was condemned to 30 days of prison for trespassing private property.
George Floyd was involved in two more cocaine offenses, in October 2002 and in 2004, for which he did eight-months and ten-months sentence in prison respectively.
Another cocaine possession conviction in Dec 2005, Floyd was arrested for having cocaine on him and served 10 months in state jail.
After a few months, Floyd’s charge was upgraded, amending the cocaine amount he possessed to be about 4 grams.
However, according to the records, the alleged charge was lifted because Floyd convinced the jury that he had less than 1 gram of cocaine.
George Floyd White Bag Video
At the time of his arrest, he allegedly dropped a white bag onto the sidewalk. The white bag is believed to have contained cocaine or some illegal drug. It’s not a part of George Floyd’s Criminal Records. You can watch the video below.
Late George Floyd shifted to Minneapolis in 2014 after his last arrest in 2009.
Floyd was brutally killed by Derek Chauvin in the broad daylight when the former Police Officer pressed his knee against Floyd’s neck for 9 minutes continuously. This inhumane act sparked outrage among the entire nation, protesters are expressing strong disagreement with current police norms all over the country.
Floyd’s, father of two, last words were “I can’t breathe… I can’t breathe.”
Jacob, Minneapolis Mayor, expressed that he strongly believes Floyd’s death was murder. ‘I’m not a prosecutor, but let me be clear. The arresting officer killed someone,’ he told CBS.
“Had he been white, he would be alive today in great health. The details I’ve seen, let me down that race was involved.” the Mayor added in his statement.
Our Comment: Though he was no saint, he didn’t deserve to die like this.
Stay tuned for more news and the latest updates on this topic.
I’m glad those four thugs are locked up.
I hope they don’t drop the soap.
Black lives matter.
(conditions apply)
How about black female pregnant women??? Apparently he didn’t think that her life mattered because he held her at gunpoint to rob her. Look it up if you’re smart enough in the Texas conviction record. He served five years for aggravated felony battery. He was such a pillar of the community he should have brought it in jail
He a good boy! He dindunuffin!!
YEP!
Not really, In my city blacks kill blacks all day 24/7, 365. There is no outrage, just overweight crying black women say he was good and did not deserve this. He was also slated to enter college and of course a rapper. You need to look at the whole picture, I do not believe you when you say BLM, it is a cliche at this point.
What about the black police chief killed by blacks, BLM, The protestor murdered in Richmond sitting in his car BLM ? black business owner killed defending his property BLM??? Where are you?????? BLM is a scam.
I can’t agree more…Bravo, well said.
If George Floyd was a role model for his community instead of a drug attic I could understand the unrest, but to have this sort reaction for a man with a criminal past as his makes me scratch my head
I think the problem is the cops murdered him! Let’s not forget that part, he should’ve been taken into custody [hopefully not murdered there] booked, charged and let the judge handle the case but these demonic possessed cops killed him while being recorded! People screaming for them to stop, check his pulse but oh no they decided to take his life! What if that were your loved one would you still see it like you see it now?
True
AGREED!!!!
Im so with you on this
as do white and asian lives. 25 million black africans face famine and death. but no one gives a toss
Thank you, Brendan. So tired of Black Lives Matter…All lives matter, and if you don’t believe this and don’t promote this then your values are all wrong. End of story.
All lives dont matter, until black lives do! George Floyd needed to be rehabilitated not murdered. Miss Peggy
A “man” who holds a gun to a pregnant lady’s stomach whilst robbing her will never be rehabilitated.
Good riddance to him, he’ll be burning in hell right now. Scum!!
Lol that’s racist itself dumbass
How many years does it take to rehabilitate someone? Is it after the second offense the third offense the fourth offense the fifth offense?
My question is was he a participating father who supported his children financially that’s the big question for me
George Floyd has a criminal history dating from 1997. It’s apparent that he chose not to be rehabiltated and he was arrested for trying to pass a counterfeit $20 bill. This, of course, does not make acceptable his death while being arrested by the police.
Well the guy was high on fentinly, cocaine, marajuana and meth amphetamines dropped a bag of drugs at the scene, was knowingly infected with coronovirus at the time and rather than self isolating was out passing counterfeit money. HAD ALSO BEEN DONE for armed robbery, pointing a gun at a pregnant woman. Well did not deserve to die. Well on second thoughts you intimidate a pregnant with a gun do armed robberies and have no respect for lives of others by being out in public passing coronovirus then f**k you.
When you say all lives don’t matter, then you’re saying that black lives don’t matter. She didn’t say that George deserved to be murdered. Everyone agrees on that.
All lives matter!
What tf do you think “ALL” mean… people need to get their head out of the sand. And “ALL” means including the woman this guy held a gun or knife to his pregnant girlfriends womb WHAT IF THAT WAS YOU?
You say All lives don’t matter 😡 I would say the ones that don’t matter as much are the weak who pray on vulnerable pregnant women!!!
Indeed
😂😂😂 that’s the stupidest thing I’ve heard yet, all lives don’t matter until black lives matter, what the hell are black lives then. You’re simply stupid. All fucking lives matter, any human live matters, wake the hell up
Whoever said black lives don’t matter? Racism is horrible and comes in every color but if blacks are truly oppressed then how could a black man become president…twice? Black men and women hold prominent positions at the highest levels in this country. Things will never change if race continues to be used as a martyr. Why would you want to keep your race down when you and everyone else behind BLM have the power to raise it up. The only ones that are truly oppressed are youngsters. They’re being taught to fear and hate white people and cops. They’re the ones that don’t have a chance.
The report states he his system was full of drugs. He was arrested for passing counterfeit money. Floyd worked with Chauvin at shady nightclub that was being investigated for counterfeiting and money laundering. The nightclub is in a building that is owned by the radical La Razza organization.
Bottom line, Floyd was certainly not only NOT a saint, but, indeed, Floyd was an active criminal and participant in illegal activities right up to the very moment of his arrest that day.
The cop (Chauvin) will spend the rest of his life in jail, and deservedly so! But I don’t think this was racially motivated, because the cop and the crook actually worked together and knew each other. I think the cop is just a stupid power crazed thug, that has a Rambo complex, and would done the exact same thing to a white criminal.
Miss Frida – my white sister’s life mattered but she was murdered by a black man. He shot her 7 times up close with an AK47. Does that mean I am racist towards black people? Of course not. ALL lives matter!
Throw them a bone then. Fly over there and feed them bed down with them. That is the Governments way they treat the population. Bye lady enjoy the flies opp’s I mean flight..
I hope people realize BKM is a bunch of liberal man hating black lesbians or whatever who saw an opportunity to push their perverted life styles with the death of black men (who they hate). Look up theeir web site
I meant BLM spell checker got me
That is occurring in another continent. This issue is a US/Western world issue. The fact that millions of Africans are starving is largely their own goddamn fault for not being able to create stability for themselves. China experienced starvation during the Cultural Revolution where 40-50 million people died.
Did the Chinese b*tch and moan about inequities of life? No, they rose up and have bought large parts of Africa and much of the world.
Teach them to take responsibility for their own lives! George Floyd was no angel either. He invaded a black lady’s house and pointed a gun at her while his thug team robbed that lady.
YEP!
Did the Chinese b*tch and moan about inequities of life? No, they rose up and have bought large parts of Africa and much of the world.
You mean those same Chinese that are responsible for spreading COVID-19 virus around the world, which resulted in crippling the global economy, along with claiming hundreds of thousands of deaths, not to mention not taking any responsibility for their actions, but making excuses for it by blaming America, courtesy of the CCP/WHO, and last but not least, crying about racism and victimhood, they ain’t no better either. But anyway, this George Floyd story is a hoax conceived by the Democrats in order to undermine President Trump’s reelection courtesy of George Soros/Clintons.
Robbing a pregnant women at gun point. Stand up citizen.
Dont break the law there wont be an issue. Some Black Lives dont matter that much afteral.l
You need to wean yourself from fake news. If George Floyd broke into your house with a gang of his fellow thugs and shoved a gun into your pregnant belly I doubt that you would be shedding tears about what a wonderful “gentle giant” this loathsome career criminal was.
Does his life matter to me? No, he should have been kept in prison where he richly deserved to spend the rest of his days. The real victims whose lives he wrecked matter more to me as they should to you.
You are right, George Floyd was nothing more than a career criminal. If he wasn’t a criminal, to begin with he would have never been in the situations he found himself in. His system was full of drugs at the time this happens, so all those do-gooder need to get it straight and realize Floyd was not making a new life for himself. He just went to a new city that didn’t know him and his criminal past, to do the same thing he always did.
It is total BS to even have a peaceful protest for this guy. No, it wasn’t right what the cop did, but then again it wasn’t anyone else facing this known criminal. No one said a word when the same thing happen to some white guy when the police knelt on his neck. Maybe they should find a new tactic for the police to prevent this from happening again. Seems to me that this could actually be a
part of the problem, especially when someone has so many drugs in his system as Floyd did.,
I think the problem is the cops murdered him! Let’s not forget that part, he should’ve been taken into custody [hopefully not murdered there] booked, charged and let the judge handle the case but these demonic possessed cops killed him while being recorded! People screaming for them to stop, check his pulse but oh no they decided to take his life! What if that were your loved one would you still see it like you see it now?
Go tell his family that!
100% Agree!
I believe in second chance but Floyd has a criminal background that shows he was not a candidate for second chance; I do not agree with the “gentle giant” thing nor do I agree that he should be a martyr; this being said, he was indeed murdered and that is unlawful.
Agree…..and flying the flags at half staff to honor him? I don’t agree with that, either……That’s only for heroes, not criminals. He was definitely murdered, but we all need to remember that ALL LIVES MATTER!!!
OH NO! your such a terrible person, we should have bought Floyed a condo on the beach and provided a private tutor to rehabilitate him, his life matters and your just selfish, I think we should set up a go fund me page to help these poor victims of drug abuse and senseless peer pressure to work like everyone else, why should we be the only ones able to live a fruiful life? because we work and dont break the law, your such a racist slob, MY LORD! How dare you judge this gentle giant.
Agreed!!!!
100% agree!
Black lives matter….yes they do….and so do all the other colors on this planet. The black lives matter emblazoned for all to see ….seems to be saying that black lives matter more than any other color. In our world, on this planet, all lives matter. Declaring that one color matters is racist….from every color on this earth. With every action, and every angry word, the division between colors and races becomes more divided. You can not make someone love another. But you can make the chasm deeper and wider between races, colors or creeds, which will ultimately lead to another civil war. One far greater than the first one in 1861. We are going through every thing in 2020 that the citizens went through in 1861….everything! Will history repeat itself…… Or will we learn from History.
Amen …..
All lives matter
violent criminals need locking up
I hope they drop the soap 😉 over and over again black lives matter
Such racial hatred! Go live in Africa, and see how your life changes! Ungrateful pos!
Shame the brave cop didn’t put this scum down years earlier
Wow then go give your neck
I agree.
From what I read in researching both of these guys is they both seemed to have worked in the porn industry. So your innuendo of “dropping the soap” may be something he would not have an issue with.
Besides, isn’t your comment a little homophobic? Jus sayin, not very woke of you. lol
Was someone convicted in a court of Law for killing a belligerent [momey calling] “Excited Delirium”/ convicted felon??? The American College of Emergency Physicians’ White Paper Report on Excited Delirium, says that there is no amount of de-escalation that can be done to change the outcome of excited delirium. You should know that the report gives two demands to law enforcement when they recognize this deadly phenomenon. ….Physical restraint and subdue the subject and implement emergent sedation. But the fake/ Anti-American news & media need to Ajitprop you Godless stupid idiots! Right?
Uh oh 😧
Yeah and nobody takes responsibility for their actions! He sure as he’ll was guilty of passing a counterfeit $20 bill! He was a walking drug store.
David Dorn’s life mattered, too. Have you heard a word about this fine man’s MURDER by another black, btw. Has #BLM protested THAT in the wake of all the rioting, looting and “protests? No! Yes indeed, the life of every decent human being matters, but the life of any predator-thug and looter of ANY color, not so in my book.
God is color blind, and we’re all created equal. So it’s not skin color that matters. It’s what we do with our life that MATTERS.
It’s all about Karma, he created pain for other human beings. His death while tragic, was the path he chose. ALL LIVES MATTER!, it’s not about his color, it’s about his actions.
Black Lives DO NOT MATTER except when it supports a leftist narrative to keep blacks pissed and on the government plantation!!
How do we know, like it’s stated by the Mayor, if the person getting arrested was white they would be healthy & alive. How can it be claimed he would be healthy & alive if he had been white. He wasn’t healthy for over a decade with run ins with drugs and robbery. I’d bet that if a white guy had a wrap sheet like that and felons and stint after stint in jail & prison I really doubt that white guy would be healthy & alive. His lifestyle and heinous choices make him unhealthy and a threat to everyone from pregnant ladies to himself & anyone in between. Just my opinion & it’s just b/c I feel duped that I’m just finding this out. Still an awful, tragic way his life was taken. If he was doing fetanayl and methamphetamine one if not those combine together would most take his life in probably not very much more time. Tragic & heartbreaking, nonetheless
I agree…..
So do I (does this also require moderation?)
Agree whole heartedly. That was a wrong statement the mayor spewed out. But never the less….. it’s a simple solution….. quit breaking the law and putting yourself in this position. And it goes for any color or race. If your being detained by law enforcement….. comply and don’t resist. It’s not that hard.
Agreed!
I agree! Time after time, these situations could be avoided if common sense were used. Yet it’s always everyone else’s fault because they were committing a crime or somewhere they shouldn’t be. When do people start taking responsibility for their own actions? Every life is important but each person should be accountable for their own actions. Don’t tell me that your low income forces you to make bad choices. As a single mom I worked around the clock to have enough to provide for my children. There’s always another job if you care enough to try. Stop whining and start working. I’m sick of all of this. Be a responsible human and your life will matter!
https://www.nytimes.com/2019/08/01/us/tony-timpa-dallas-police-body-cam.html
Blows the mayor’s theory out of the water!!
Those officers didn’t get charged, fired, or even reprimanded.
Really? Not what has been reported. Life for these police officers who committed this horrible death, will know what prison feels like, just as George did. Ironic ….isn’t it.
We didn’t hear much about Tony Timpa because he was white and it didn’t fit the narrative. And, correct me if I’m wrong, and I’m not but…. I didn’t see protesting, rioting, looting, outrage… Etc… When he was murdered by cops, did you?
Finding out of George Floyd pass criminal history doesn’t change the price of coffee. It is a fact that George paid the price for each of his crimes. Let’s not mixed up the past with the present. I am not duped because he did not live a perfect life, no one is perfect.
We have white color crimes committed by white people and they get minimum time or get out of jail free card and live normal lives when they get out and it is forgotten. This man was murdered and now you all want to talk about his past to deflect his murder. Wow!
👏🏽 👏🏽 👏🏽
i agree
Exactly but it’s good for his narrative! If I am not mistaken only one of the arresting officers was white and he was married someone of a different race so the statement was ignorant and he should be forced to apologize to everyone in the state for even saying it!
No Karen he needed rehabilitation, they would have given that to a white privileged male, unfortunately this black brother doesn’t get that same treatment that a white guy would get. He was sick and thats no reason to take his life. Black lives matter!
You are right, no reason to kill this man as they did. And they cannot be judge and jury by putting him on a position to die. Even if he had just killed someone, that’s not the job of the police unless they have to defend themselves. He wasn’t a great guy, so what? Not their job to administer justice, and that’s the law.
Karen, white men are shot at a higher percentage, per population, than black men, so that “privilege” stuff is garbage. He was sick, and that was no reason to murder him. All lives matter.
Bs! You get help only if you want it!
You are tragically misinformed, or ignorant, or worse yet, a racist !
what bothers me about this Black Lives Matter sayingi is it is not true. I mean thousands of blacks are killed by other blacks. But never a word is spoken about this. in Chicago on any given weekend there are many shootings caused by blacks on other blacks. this is a fact. but never a word. and this new nonsense is to defund the police or take money from their budget and give it to black communities to use.
wow, you know where that money is going to go, into the pockets of the phony politicians who will do nothing. all I know is if that want to get rid of cops be my guest. but you have to know and decent person living in that area where this takes place will be gone in a heartbeat. BLACKS ARE BORN INTO ONE FAMILY HOMES AT A RATE OF 75-80%.
THAT IS WHERE THE TROUBLE STARTS. IT IS HARD ENOUGH TO BE A KID WITH TWO PARENTS, BUT ONE. AND MANY TIMES IT IS THE GRANDMOTHER RAISING THE KIDS. How about looking at oneself to see why black communities are a mess with so much crime. And that is the reason why you need stop and search because of so much crime.
I think Al Sharpton should’ve been sent home lol
Yikez
Passing a counterfeit $20 note, knowingly or unknowingly, would not make George’s murder excusable. Hopefully the killer cop will do at least 20 years of very hard time, with black cellmates, before he becomes eligible for parole. Note however that in cases such as these, the victim is rarely sparkling clean. George in particular has a rap sheet longer than your arm and they’re making him out to be a saint. It’s always a great disappointment to me to learn that the victim of police brutality was not quite a respectable citizen. African-American heroes too often dangerously associate themselves with crime and violence which explains the high death/incarceration rate among rappers. The few truly great Negro role models are more revered by whites (for their own obvious purposes) than by black people.
Why was Floyd “murdered?” Abused, sure, but a fair-minded jury (if even possible to impanel now) should have a hard time accepting that the knee in the neck would have killed someone not stoned on a deadly combination of narcotic and stimulant. Those coroners are going to be savaged under cross-exam when asked that very question. County Coroner says he died of a heart attack, but Celebrity Coroner hints (not states) he died of asphyxiation? Well, which was it? Celebrity Coroner will have zero physical exam proof to back up his vague media word dance, so he’ll admit under oath that there was no asphyxiation. And County Coroner will have to admit a non-doped up person also likely wouldn’t have had a heart attack So, as a matter of proof, Chauvin didn’t murder him. But Chauvin won’t receive a fair trial, not that I care much for his outcome. He’s clearly a dangerously stupid person, and likely a sadist.
The cops will have great criminal defense attorneys (thanks, public police unions!) who will argue the hell out of this case. They will argue that it was not the cops’ purpose to cause death, nor did they know of a substantial certainty that death would result (required for intentional murder).
They will also argue that assault cannot serve as the underlying felony for felony murder. Then they will put on evidence of all the times that the cops have used similar tactics to restrain a suspect and they haven’t resulted in death.
That will cut against the reckless murder charge. They will point out that the presence of the drugs in Floyd’s system also cuts against the reckless murder charge. The prosecutor way overcharged here. Manslaughter would be easy to get. Murder will be very difficult unless some new evidence comes to light.
Are you serious?? Do you honestly think that if you had your hands tied and you had three men pinning you down with their full weight – one man on your legs, one on your back, one on your neck for NINE MINUTES, you would be fine?? If you are restraining someone who is begging and pleading for their life, it should send a STRONG message, you are actively committing MURDER!
I don’t care what you think about his past crimes or his alleged current drug use. If you can’t feel for this man, try to put yourself or a loved one in his place. Imagine being taken into custody and then being judged, sentenced and executed in the span of minutes, in public, out on the street, on video for the world to see. And then to be judged all over again after death by a bunch of self-important assholes. You don’t get any of this at all. You aren’t paying attention to the issues that matter.
@Julsie Brown.. please do your “fact” checking.. there was ONLY 1 officer on George Floyd’s body anywhere PERIOD! U stated one was on his legs, one on his back and one on his neck. u r WRONG!!!!The other officers were standing there.. if u even watch the video all the way through u can see the other 3 just standing there.
BLM is nothing bt BULLSHIT and political bc if they really did matter they wld no matter who they are killed by even & esp by their own race! I’m tired of the msm, BLM, the Dems, celebrities etc. making this man out to be a martyr… he is NOT! He is the farthest thing from it however that doesn’t fit the bullshit rederick narrative. Just bc someone is white also does not mean they are “privileged” either go that shit needs to go! My Grandfather was in WWll & worked until he was 72 yrs young. My Father was in the Army & still works full time at the age of 76 yrs young, he only has 1 arm and has many other health issues from being injured on the job many years ago. My husband was in the USMC, was in the Gulf War, he is disabled bt still works full time and is still fighting w the VA for benefits. I have CKD stage 4 & other serious health issues and have been fighting disability since 2014. So gtfo the white privileged bullshit! We have worked for everything we have & we struggle every week every month..
Well said!
I agree. And, where are they going to find an impartial jury to hear this case?
Irrelevant and I object to your statement! Doesn’t matter let’s deal with George’s murder!
It was said that he was trying to turn his life around. So many sad stories. People can overcome a bad past. I do hope that he spent the last of his time doing that.
he will NOT be in gen population you dope.
No one said he wasn’t murdered by that cop, although I am not a doctor and do not have any idea if he died due to the knee on the neck or if his heart quit working, or some other reason.
His behaviour in life lead up to that encounter. Still does not justify how he was treated by those police officers. HE put himself in that situation. You did not. I did not. No one else did. He chose a path that vastly increased his chances of an encounter with law enforcement. He chose to be part of the problem. He chose unnecessary confrontation.
Did you miss the part about him holding a gun to a pregnant lady’s stomach whilst robbing her?
I’m glad he’s dead. Scum like him will never matter. He’ll be burning in hell!
Imagine that? The media left out important details? That he brutally forced his way in to a pregnant lady’s home to rape and rob her? Gee outstanding citizen. Not. If he were Latino like my people would people make a hero out of him? No. Latino s are the slaves modern, not blacks.
This country that you enjoy all of your rights was built by my ancestors. Stolen Black slaves. You are only here because of the civil rights that Blacks fought for. Enjoy the ride. You didn’t receive any assaults, rapes, lynchings, water hosing, false imprisonment. You were never taken from your country enslaved and treated like animals. Latino should never use the term slavey. You came to this country on your own volition. Every race has rapists in their history and in current times. I could shred your comments but it’s not necessary. I’m tired of fighting igonorance.
Don’t use this to demean the killing of this man. What difference did the knowledge of his criminal record do for you? There were 4 officers and he was unarmed and in handcuffs. George did not deserve to die like that. He repeatedly told them about his limited breathing and the officers ignored it. Again please do not use this “new information” that has no connection to the reason he died to exemplify the cops actions.
It’s not being used to demean the killing of George. The death of George was horrible and I hope the officers charged never see the light of day again. The criminal record is being brought up because of the media and BLM followers are labeling George as a hero for the African American people when in fact he was a criminal. Not one jail sentence, but multiple jail sentences.
They aren’t justifying it, just showing he isn’t the perfect ‘saint’ the media is making him out to be.
Thank you!
Nobody is excusing what the cop did, but Floyd was no goody goody. If you live by the sword, you die by the sword. lets not forget he once held a gun to a pregnant woman’s stomach in a robbery. there’s no place on the planet for scum like that.
Had the criminal justice system worked Floyd would be safe in prison today. He represented what Hillary Clinton termed “super-predators” that deserved life terms under her Bill Clinton’s call for his “three strikes and you’re out” laws to be passed in all states. Floyd had at least nine strikes (6 of them felonies) including home invasion with armed assault on a pregnant woman.
Does his life matter? Nope, not if its let loose in civil society.
The fact that he was a common criminal does play a role in the way the media would have covered this story. There have been many upstanding productive citizens that have lost their lives at the hands of this unprofessional and abusive police. The light should have landed on them why this thug?
Breonna Taylor was one African American, an emt and was not committing a crime when she was gunned down by police. True it is sad that this demon cop took this thugs life. Had he live he would be in jail now . He chose to live that life style of robbing and drugs surely we all know that there are consequences that go along with that kind of chosen path. Police encounters is definitely one. Police have been taking lives of the people that they encounter for years.
I am sure Mr. Floyd was well aware of the risks he was taking in the actions that he took on that faithful day. Police need to be held accountable for the lives they unjustly take such as Floyd’s but criminals must also know there are risks that come when doing things that may bring you in contact with unprofessional police. You never know who is going to show up when they are called. It the roll of the dice. He got craps on the roll he took on the 25yh of May.
If one can “repeatedly” state that they “can’t breathe” over and over again, guess what? They’re breathing. The trial is going to destroy the paid-for-hire coroner’s assertion that he was “killed by asphyxiation”. The levels of narcotics in his system clearly is going to play a HUGE part of what he ultimately died from.
Was the officer kneeling on his neck for that long in the wrong? Damn straight. Did he “murder” Floyd? I don’t think the facts are going to conclude that in a court of law.
I bet the pregnant woman who’s stomach he was holding a gun to begged him to stop.
Karma!!
Good riddance! He’s burning in hell right now!
Rest in Piss.
Agree. And the Mayor isn’t helping the situation by try to make his ” if he were white” case.
Why you hiding? Thats what roaches do. Hide in the dark. And who are you to say good riddance to someone life. There’s ppl like you who need to change and good riddance to your bad behavior. Not your life but your disgusting, uneducated, narcissistic way of thinking. And the other person..you agree. That’s all you came up with.. Wake up..the change is here and now. No more hiding to your entitlement..I’m here to tell you..Justice will prevail and you will sit there and take it. Remember, watch what you say..Karma may come back and bite that entitlement that you hold so dearly. Sad and pathetic.
Good riddance to those lives whom have damaged other lives. That includes those whom have demonstrated violent criminal behavior in their paste like George Floyd, no matter what the color of their skin is. He’s not a victim of police or racism, but of bad parenting/bad culture.
finally someone who talks sense
He was arrested, found guilty, sentenced, and did his time for his previous crimes. He already paid the price determined by our criminal justice system. And ultimately, yes, he WAS victim to police and racism. We can only prove it this one time because it was caught on camera.
But if you insist on wishing good riddance to those who have damaged the lives of others, you can wish it to the police officers who have damaged the lives of George Floyd and his family.
Why do you praise a thug like George Floyd. He got what he deserved. I think that the police should be freed and rewarded since they remove this scum.
Not “YOUR”…. “YOU’RE” lmfao
Brandon this article has a sh*t load of typos and you come on to this comment haha okay Brandon find the writer of this article and let him know his mistakes lmfao black lives matter! You are the uneducated one here.
Yes, He was a home invader, beater of an old women, but not really robbery because the lady didn’t have a thing to steal !! Look it up. Prison time drugs etc etc. End result tragic!! Especially the rest of the country for having to live through this crap. He was loser, so is the cop. However, this is Selective outrage.
Y’all talkin all tgat shit and under the name John Doe and Jon Doe. Don’t be scared! I just hope like hell you are Blessed to see another Day! God bless both of you John/Kon Doe.. Boy bye 👋🏽
Gina you do not frighten me. We have free speech. Tough shit if you don’t like it. Boy Bye
You really can’t make this stuff up, and the lack of cognitive function is shocking.
Blacks: Y’all just assume we all crimnils n sh*t. Dats raciss!
Also blacks: Why y’all hide yo name? Tell us yo name so we can come assault y’all and do all our criminal shit. You would neva say dis shit to no ****** face, cuz you know we would f*ck you up.
People with common sense! I was getting worried there were none any more after hearing/watching all these idiots support the thug nation.
AGREED!!!!
It’s not about what George Floyd did or didn’t do .. it’s about what the police did .. that man begged to be able to breathe and they didn’t care .. people passing on the street begged to let him breathe and the cops didn’t care .. people got angry and yelled that he couldn’t breathe and had stopped moving and the cops didn’t care and wouldn’t let him up .. you can’t tell me that cop couldn’t feel George Floyd go limp under him and he refused to get off .. he could feel him stop breathing and he wouldn’t get off …
We don’t need cops like that policing others .. he didn’t care and in the video he kept looking down watching George Floyd as he choked the Life out of him … He had to of understood George Floyd wasn’t fighting for anything other than air … What kind of person watches like that and doesn’t help another human .. not the kind of police we should be having !!!
I also am sure that Pregnant women he pointed a gun at begged for the life of her and her child, By the grace of God he did not fire the gun, you don’t bring a gun unless you intend to use it.
Isolated incident. Unfortunately, rioters and looters have people believing this happens all the time. It does not.
He was criminal scum. Good riddance! He’ll be burning in hell right now.
Exactly spot on Amen
Don’t have the balls to use your real names? Figures. Drug use isn’t a crime punishable by death, you ignorant racist a**holes.
This guy pointed a loaded guy to a pregnant women stomach during a home robbery
ALLEDGELY!!! Do you even know the meaning of alledgely??? Did you take the time out and read the victim’s complains? I have. Did you take the time out to read his criminal record??? I have!
Allegedly?…he pled guilty to that very act! You may need to take reading comprehension classes if you read but did not understand.
He did his time for that re read the article oh smart one haha
The pregnant woman with a gun pointed in her stomach was brutally raped. He pled out of that charge. I wish that woman would come forward and sue his family for the millions his family will get in a wrongful death suit. Now that would be justice.
Turned his life around? Ha ha, by passing counterfeit money…
I kneel for no man but especially a criminal
Isn’t it interesting how these stories about black folks always start changing the further we look into them? Travon Martin, Michael Brown in Ferguson, and now George Lloyd,
6’4 223lbs high on fentanyl, morphine, pot, and tweak. Stoned out of his mind fuking with the cops and got himself killed. He’s been asking to die for years.
The cop was wrong. But all this rouble over this piece of crap.
They say this is a racist country when we rampage, protest and riot every time a scumbag who happens to be black, is killed.
YES!!!!
Love that truthful comment! The truth people will set you free!
AMEN Brother!!! I’m tired of people using race as an excuse then over react before the truth is known.
These things happened 10/15 years ago though! C’moooon.
So dropping drugs out of his hand when the incident happen, happened 15 years ago, i agree with a lot here, good riddance to this thug.
The armed robbery happened in 2007 and he was convicted for it in 2009. In Texas, that carries a maximum penalty of 99 years. In Minnesota, it’s 20 years. He should still be in prison.
The job of the police is to apprehend and arrest, not murder. It’s then up to the prosecutor to charge, etc.
You are correct. However, a part of arrest is being “detained”. If you resist, you are going to have your body parts grabbed hold of, squeezed, pressed, pinned, etc. People who have high levels of narcotics in their system (which is illegal) are prone to have adverse reactions to violent physical encounters like this.
Floyd was a violent felon with a history of strong-arm robbery/home invasion robbery, narcotics use and distribution, resisting arrest, etc. Let’s put it in words you might relate to: “if you don’t want none, don’t act the fool”.
For some reason I feel Mr. Floyd and Mr. Chauvin had some kind of grievance with one another. It’s already reported they worked at the same club. Doesn’t excuse what Chauvin did, but I think there is more to the story than anyone will ever know. Mr Chauvin was a bad cop and Mr. Floyd’s personal life was filled with drugs and arrest. The two came together on that day and it created a bad storm. One that the rest of us will pay for, for a long time.
I believe you are correct hence upping the charge to 2nd degree. They will need to “prove intent to kill”, so they know something about both of them that we do not, yet.
He got caught for armed robbery twice, wonder how many old women he robbed and didn’t get caught, drug dealer, even ditched his stash when he got lifted, doped out his skull when he gets arrested and then resits arrest… this guy was not the Angel that folks are making him out to be, in fact, i would suggest folks are lying to get away with daylight robbery !!!
Lefty loony politics & lies to rob hard working folks of hard eared graft.. shameful
True Floyd is not a great example of a law abiding citizen, police still have a problem with their treatment of blacks in this country. Much of these protests are admitting that. They have to do better.
Police killed nine unarmed black people in the US last year. Nine. That’s out of a population of 45 million black people in the US. Literally one in 5 million. They killed just over 1,000 in total. Just over 800 of those people were killed during the commission of a violent felony while armed.
That leaves, at most, 200 people who were possibly unjustifiably killed by police. Out of a population of 330 million. Kinda seems like police killings of black people (or any people, for that matter) is not that big of a problem. There are bad cops who kill when they shouldn’t. The stats show that they are extremely rare.
Not just blacks. WAAAY too many cops think of themselves AS the law instead of someone who is there to UPHOLD the law.
I used to (when I was young and naive) tend to give cops the benefit of the doubt. Not anymore.
Karma is a b*tch, and you reap what you sew. Their chickens are coming home to roost.
It’s about time.
Wouldn’t expect anything less. Yep agreed just a thug. This needs to be aired.
