    Not to mention he swallowed enough fentanyl to kill an elephant.

    That's why he couldn't breathe, his lungs were full of fluid.

    What about the Black man who was sitting in his own apartment and was killed by the lady cop who thought he was in her apartment? Which law did he break?
    What about the Black lady who was in her apartment playing a game with her nephew and a cop shot thru her window and killed her?
    Which law did she break?

    Ah, here come the anecdotes. I notice you could only give a few examples, because, let's be honest, there aren't many.

    In the first example, the cop was wrong. She went into the wrong apartment and jumped to conclusions.

    What you miss in the first example is that it could have just as easily been a white guy's apartment she accidentally walked in and shot the white guy.

    Did racism make her walk into the wrong apartment?

    How is that "racism"?

    The riots happen even when it's a black cop that shoots a criminal taking his "book" out of his ankle holster.

    He died because a grown man put his weight on his neck via his knee. That's why he couldn't breathe. That's why there has been protests in the streets of many cities ever since. People are tired of the brutality and murder.
    Black life should be as valuable as White life.
    When will America learn this?

    No, that's not why he died. I've been over this.

    You can't asphyxiate someone with your knee on their neck unless you constrict and damage the airway. It wasn't damaged.

    If his knee was positioned to cut off blood flow to his brain, which it wasn't, he would have had a stroke. He didn't.

    His lungs were full of fluid because he had 4 or 5 serious heart conditions and swallowed enough fentanyl to kill 4 or 5 people.

    You'll see when the court case comes.

    Alternatively, George Floyd could have: Not led a criminal life, not swallowed a bunch of fentanyl, not been using counterfeit money, and he could have gotten in the car and gone on a ride.

    But no, he chose to do all those things that led to his death. He has no one but himself to blame.

    I agree, all lives....black...white...whatever should be as valuable.

    The problem is that criminals and drug dealers/users don't value life. It has nothing to do with skin color.

    Which does a certain segment of popular black culture give more value to (such as in rap music): life or money?

    The truth is, you have a cultural problem in black communities brought about by fatherless homes and welfare.

    You failed to explain how it was racism as well.

    What law did Justin Carr break?

    Probably didn't know that name though.

    I believe that is correct and is based on the results of his autopsy report.

    Aside from all of that, those who protest apparently do not care that he died. they love the fact they get to protest.

    Most of us wait and learn what took place ahead of protesting. We do not assume the media is correct. We do not assume a knee on the neck killed him. We would have plenty of dead football players were that the case. The helmet protects the head but not the neck.

    The Fentanyl is what I believe took his life. Because of how he acted. He went nuts when in the Cop car. Who breathes fine in his ladys car only to not breath well in the cop car? His death is a tragic death contributed to by his own use of drugs.

    He was past the age of his mom or dad being his problem so he got the idea his best way was to tell cops he can't breathe. This story sounds fishy as hell given he was breathing fine up to the car he got put into.

    If this is the lady I think it is, she is a very nice person who truly cares.

    That is the media spin story. Me, the courts get a crack at this story with lawyers up the wazoo working for both sides.

    No, Justin Carr was a black man who was shot in the head during a BLM march on live TV by another black man.

    Nobody knows his name though.

    If BLM cared about black lives they'd stop destroying the communities the poor black people live in.

    Who are they helping by burning down the stores which black people own, black people work in, and poor black people who don't have cars get their prescriptions filled in?

    These marches have killed more black people and ruined more black lives in the past few months than any level of "racism".

    Leftists are just using it as an excuse to burn, loot, and divide America.

    They are helping nobody in their communist objectives.

    Instead of whining and moaning about Black folks, why don't you change your own attitude? You can't change other people, but you can change yourself.
    Learn to view others with compassion and understanding, instead of hate and vitriol.
    Try it. And stop beating that dead horse.

    As the reader can see, Buri tries to bluff his way past FACTS as he just parrots his opinion only bigotry. He's not worth responding to any further.

    Says the people that go "racist" every time something happens to a person with black skin, usually in the commission of a violent crime, who then start burning down their own cities.

    Remove the plank from your eye.

    Don't think I didn't notice you didn't address anything I said, you just attacked me for saying things you can't refute.

    Get thee behind me, Democrat.

    you seem befuddled by the idea of people not committing crime. It’s ok, people who consistently make poor decisions need others like them to make apologies for their failures.
    You got wrecked by simple logic.

    That doesn't seem to be what the coroner determined. Where did you get this information that he was suffocated due to a knee to his neck?

    I usually give them about 2 months in the bin.....when they dog my threads/posts, I periodically check in to see if they've grown enough to have a civil and rational debate. Most fail.
