:snoop: What’s wrong with theses brehs. I really don’t want this video, to hit the public. Are we not tired of seeing cold black bodies. All over the internet.
I needs to come to light. Turning a blind eye to it is complacency.
:snoop: You right but man


I agree it needs to be released and I also agree that those of us who are black shouldn’t HAVE to watch it. We’ve been traumatized enough.

But just like Emmit Till’s mother did at his funeral by showing his mangled, beaten, bloated corpse, the WORLD needs to see what these sick pigs are doing to innocent black men and HAVE BEEN doing to us for hundreds of years

I was watching the press conference and the description of what they did to this young man made my stomach turn. I’m not gonna state the obvious but at least perhaps this time justice will be served to its fullest extent. R.I.P. to Tyre

I only watch Floyd's murder once until the trial started. It was too painful. The day it happened my brother in-law texted me about it and told me it hit different. He was right. This is probably gonna be just as bad.

Don't loot. Don't Burn stores and cars. Go for the ones that did this.
I still haven't watched Floyd's video. That and Nick Berg's video, who reportedly screamed while being decapitated.

No thanks.

Probably giving the businesses time to board up
I don’t think it’s going to be like that. George Floyd was killed by a White Man. It doesn’t make this murder any less impactful, but the media isn’t going to run with it the same way. As well these “cops” have been immediately arrested and there hasn’t been much in the way of public pressure applied “yet”.

They do have to worry about the knuckleheads looking for an opportunity. :francis:

I’m really afraid to see the video because I know what type of emotions it will bring . I just recently moved back home to Memphis as well so this truly hits home on another level.

I know for sure they wanted to get the charges out there and the officers fired before they drop the video probably to minimize the reaction from the public. But if it’s as bad as we are all hearing, I doubt it does

Also another black man who calls out for his mother. :mjcry:
RIP breh. You didn’t deserve this at all
