  This remark says it all:  "How dare you bring up his "background" in this discussion"?
  
  This is the level of intellect you are trying to reason with.  

  Dave C says: How DARE you bring up his background in this discussion.

  Well, the header of your posting here is "George Floyd's Background". 
  
  So Darian, you have a helluva lot of nerve bringing up his background in a posting about George Floyd's background.  

  I mean to say just look at that moronic statement "how dare you... "

  The man is a fool, he's beyond help and he's operating on pure emotion.

  Most leftists are all the time, operating on emotion only, no reason and no logic.

  These are the most dangerous fools because they are White Men who have been conditioned to have White Guilt over the fact that they were born white.

  Other Demagogic Black men have come to understand, they can manipulate fools out there in the world by bringing up race and instilling as much guilt as possible to get their agenda across.

  The leftist Socialist Democrats are all about Identity Politics.

   And so it is with that understanding that we need to recognize why they are attacking you, calling you names.

  The other black Demagogues like Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson use platitudes like "systematic racism", and "black lives matter" to instill a guilt into the rest of society, that they are the problem and that the racism they innately possess, as being the reason for the tragic failure of the black family to prosper.   

  They are devoid of the ability to reason and deal with Data that shows just the opposite of the assertions they are pushing.  The lying assertions that say that black men are being killed by the bushel by White Cops. 

  This fallacy resonates in the empty head of those like the 2 responders to your posting.  
   
  The are both irrational at best and ignoramuses for certain.
 
  Both of them should read the Book "White Guilt" written by Shelby Steele that deals with the politics of racism, how it has been used by black demagogic leaders to manipulate other racial groups to believe that they are guilty by virtue of their skin color of keeping down the 'African American' race from succeeding.

  That of course is the furthest thing from the truth and it is the policies of the racist Democrat party in this nation that has been perpetuating the decline of the black family, which in turn is destroying the ability of blacks in society to get ahead.

  Racism has nothing to do with it. 

  Candice Owens is a beautiful person and she has more self-awareness in her big toe than either of these buffoons, have in their collective idiocy.
  
  It is best to give up on these fools because they are uninformed leftists who have been conditioned to believe that racism is the problem in the Black Community.

  You cannot convince them with facts, they have made up their minds.

I'm curious what your point was.  Why does it matter whether George Floyd had a dicey background?

Jim

p.s.  I'm not gonna watch the 18 m video, but I'll take your word for it that it shows Floyd had a criminal past.  

Jim

p.p.s.  I don't believe the protests are "exalting" Floyd.  I see the protests as being much more generally motivated by the treatment of blacks in America and particularly the treatment of blacks by the police in America.  Also, I am sure I disagree with many of the protesters and all of the looters on many issues, including the quality of 99.99% of the American police forces.  But the peaceful protesters certainly believe in a cause that is bigger than this one crime by one bad cop.  Thus, I don't see how Floyd's background has any relevance:  His background absolutely does not justify his murder, and the protests are much much much bigger than merely being protests against his murder.

It is one thing to deal out justice to those 4 officers who contributed to the guys death.....that should happen. However I have no sympathy for those who would exalt him as a martyr in order to create chaos

My point is that the non-violent protesters believe strongly that blacks are treated badly in America.  This belief motivates their protests, not any sort of adulation of Floyd.

I can see the protester's point, even if I do not completely agree.  It seems that some folks in the political arena have trouble acknowledging that those who are on the "other side" have sincerely held and often nobly motivated beliefs too.

You question that blacks are treated badly in the US. While I cannot comment on all I can give you anecdotal evidence of bad treatment by police.


I have friends who are both university professors. He is from Arkansas and his wife is from Alabama. They now live in Texas. Since they are moderately well off, they can afford to drive a nice car.  They have been pulled over numerous times when driving, not only in Texas, but all states between Texas and Alabama. Pulled over, not because they were doing anything wrong, but because they were suspected of driving a stolen car. Because blacks are not supposed to drive nice cars!

That is racial profiling at its worse and symptomatic of how badly treated blacks are in southern states. 

I could also relate plenty of stories from my students.

If something doesn't pass the smell test, it's easy to do a little research before posting it as fact. It took me all of 10 seconds to determine the source of that image (I'm not exaggerating). Reminds of that guy who posted the non-lethality of the 30-06 at range factoid he found on the internet - he just believed it because he read it.  Who was that guy?  LOL
