In reality he is right. When Martin Luther King died very few people knew about it outside the U. S.
George Floyd's death was seen and known by several millions if not billions of people world wide do to our technological advances such as the internet.
That isn't what he said. He was talking about how far reaching information spreads in our current technological environment. Why lie? Is it because you know there is no reason to vote for a republican?
You got it
First of all, Joe Biden is a racist and always has been a Racist.
Second, Joe Biden only has a double-digit IQ. His intelligence is very low grade.
Third at his age, his dementia is setting in, so yes he is losing what little intelligence he ever had.
Biden was just trying to score some political points. George Floyd is no hero, he never did anything useful in his life.
It had a bigger impact on Biden as he was seeking power when it happened and wants to appease his power base going into midterms.
I doubt history will show it had a bigger impact on the civil rights movement though.
I mean yeah. I voted for the guy but he isn't mentally all there, so I believe it when he puts his foot in his mouth.
Mostly I figured "the car might be missing an engine, but at least it isn't actively driving backwards."
If any so called woke people listen to this idiot then just wow
Orrrr… orrrr. Orrrr…
Imagine hyping MLK by dismissing the man slaughter if a black man.
You seem to love yourself the idea of Floyd not getting due process. No matter your opinion of him, if you value equality and our Constitution, you'd understand the irony of your ridiculous rambling.
I understand I took your bait, good job.
George Floyd caused his own death!!!
A jury of his peers seem to disagree.
If Floyd did not encounter Derek Chauvin that day he probably would of died of a Fentanyl overdose anyway. He had more than a lethal dose dose of it in his blood stream the day he died.
"Imagine hyping MLK by dismissing the man slaughter if a black man."
Imagine trying to prove a point about race by invoking a racist statement that ignores what MLK even stood for.
George Floyd didn't deserve to die, but he wasn't killed. He overdosed on fentanyl. His race had nothing to do with his own death; his abuse with drugs did.
@billyballs So if you run someone over with your car but you find out they had terminal cancer, you're innocent?
@goaded If the person with cancer purposely disregards pedestrian rules and recklessly walks in front of my car then yes. The pedestrian caused his own death!!!
Not the same thing, and you know it. It's more like if you ran them over on purpose. Once someone's in custody, their well-being is the responsibility of the police.
@goaded George Floyd actions put himself in harms way. Similar to a person who recklessly "plays in traffic"
And yet, if you see someone "playing in traffic", it's your responsibility not to run them down (and them having terminal cancer doesn't mean you're not the one who killed them).
You're comparing someone who had voluntarily ingested a lethal dose of Fentanyl to someone who has terminal cancer not by choice?
Your logic is nonexistent!!!
It took you two days to come up with that? Your position is that it didn't matter that he was killed because he was supposedly going to die anyway. Of course it matters.
Ok now that is just bad. MLK was a hero who actually tried to help. Mr. Floyd didn't do anything but go to sleep in a drive through and die. I don't think theirs any comparison to be made their
Are you f*cking serious? 🤬 The woke mob is insane.
Joe B is probably right. George Floyd's DEATH sparked the BLM movement. Martin Luther King's LIFE sparked the Civil Rights movement; his death was not as important as his life.
MLK would have been America's first Black US President and I agree on George Floyd's case was not in any way worst than MLK's. But my deep sympathy goes to both persons and the tragedy their families go through. What happen to both was horrible
25 million people turned out just in the US to protest the death of Floyd and the bigotry it exposed. There were similar protests all across the world.
He wasn't comparing the men, he was comparing the reaction to their deaths.
Do you just sit in front of the tv, and scroll social media trying to find things to anger you?
Stupid shot like this deserves the anger!
His mind was gone before he even reached the inauguration point.
World-wide impact at the time, my doofy friend. There were literally protests all over the world because of the George Floyd murder.
George Floyd caused his own death!!!
Don't do stupid things and bad things won't happen to you!!!
See it like this: if a white guy was walking into the store and he decided “fuck it, ima steal something” then the cops caught him, the cops wouldn’t have killed him cuz he’s white. They’d take him down to the station and listen to him, cuz he’s white.
But when a black person is doing something slightly wrong or something the police don’t like, we get killed. Because we’re black.
Now get your head out of your ass and open your eyes god gave you for good use
George Floyd was a violent criminal.
I have no pity on people like him.
Ok but what about all the white people who are violent criminals and don’t get killed by cops? George Floyd was not a violent criminal, he was tryna get by in a country that doesn’t accept him as one of its own
99.99999999% of violent black criminals don't get killed by cops.
So your scenario of cops killing blacks doesn't stack up.
That’s not true lol
Additionally, the rate of fatal police shootings among Black Americans was much higher than that for any other ethnicity, standing at 37 fatal shootings per million of the population as of December 2021.
How many of those 37 were violent criminals?
Take that number as a percent of VIOLENT CRIMINALS.
Then do the same for other races.
And then break down the number of total violent criminals by race then compare.
Don't forget. The percent of VIOLENT blacks is disproportionate to other races.
Learn to correctly read and compare stats!!!
*sigh* ignorant white people sometimes, I swear…
* sigh* Ignorant 14 year old black Boi!!!
*loud cough* boi? Are you 12?
…last time I heard that word was from my 8 year old brother lmao
It wouldn't be the first retarded thing this dumbshit said. Just watch the slow moving train crash and enjoy the ride, my guy.
In a sense, that’s true. I think Floyd’s death was what brought about impact, while it was MLK’s life, and not his death, that effected change.
So I personally thought the world had already established that he's lost his mind.
Only had a bigger impact because of media.
Looking at it in reverse, what if we had the "Social media" we have now back when MLK was alive?
