While I understand that Mr. Floyd died at the hands of a reckless police officer, but the funeral today was way over the top " Drama "

Here you have an admitted career criminal, thug, bully, worthless parasite on society in general, was honored with basically a state funeral, complete with a horse drawn carriage . Followed by adoring followers.

Those who spoke glowing words you are absolutely no better than G. Floyd.

And for those who continue to , Mock, Ridicule, Injure , and yes Kill Our Law Enforcement Officers shame on you. You have no conscience.

Compare that with Officer David Dorn ( Retired) defending his life long friend property.

Officer David Dorn, God Bless You, May You Rest In Peace.

A man was murdered on video in broad daylight for possibly passing a phony 20 bill. He was not currently in jail, there was no warrant for his arrest - he was a free man in a vehicle. He was then handcuffed and sat against a wall, after a struggle in the back seat of a police cruiser he was taken out of the car and laid on the ground where he then had a knee placed on his neck for 8 min and 46 sec until he died. That is murder at the hands of a corrupt, criminal cop who had many many complaints brought against him. But you want to talk about George Floyd's criminal record only... How interesting. I can appreciate you thought it was over the top and dramatic but this death was the straw that broke the camels back in this country and we may finally see some real change. Just another opinion.

I didn't watch the funeral...so have no comment on it.

For sure though, the intentional murder of anyone...is a tragedy where justice should prevail.

I believe that whomever killed Dorn, should get the same sentence (life in prison) as the white supremacist who killed the woman and injured a bunch of others with his car...during the peaceful Charlottesville protests.

What makes Floyd's death a point of contention, is the fact that he was murdered by someone who is paid with taxpayer money..."to protect & serve."

Only time will tell and since any real changes will have to come from people's hearts and recognition of prejudices...I'm not real optimistic.

Certainly the cop should be sent to prison and others who commit crimes against citizens should also.

I have a problem with all of the people instead of peasably protesting decided to take it upon themselves to loot and destroy. And the outside troublemakers who incited this.

Funeral of a porn actor and drug hyped up career criminal ex-con violent felon who held a gun on a pregnant woman during a home invasion robbery who died at the hands of a cop who kneeled on his neck too long while three other cops did not stop it.

[billethkid]

If the Special interest groups want to make a spectacle that's fine.

But for the media to cover it as though it was a dignitary of lofty proportions......was more than over the top.

Angel wings and halo. The ultimate symbol to top off the over the top-ness!!

Undeserved/unreal!

But that has nothing to do with George Floyd's funeral. There was no looting and destruction at the funeral. And George Floyd didn't order any looting or destruction, he was a little too busy being dead at the time all that started, following his murder.

This topic, this thread: George Floyd's funeral

[Chatbrat]

IMHO--George Floyd's funeral rivaled the funerals of JFK & MLK as far as multi state venues & media coverage-- REALLY !!!!!

[Two Bills]

With all this over the top reaction from the media, continued protest and destruction of property, and the farce of practically a state funeral for George Floyd.
I would hazard a guess, that rather than unite, it is driving a bigger wedge between the racial and political divide in the US. and by continuing, the protest is defeating its own objective.
One only has to read on this board the distance of opinion between the posters to see how wide that divide is, if reflected across the whole country.
