He called out to his Mom .... who died 2 years ago on the same day 😭😭😭😭😭 RIP
Handcuffed.
Face Down.
Knee on his neck.
They did nothing.

He called the officer "Sir."
They did nothing.

He begged for his life.
He begged for water.
He begged for mercy.
They did nothing.

His nose bled.
His body trembled.
He lost control of his bladder.
They did nothing.

He cried out, "I can't breathe."
They did nothing.

Twelve more times.

"I can't breathe."
"I can't breathe."
"I can't breathe."
"I can't breathe."
"I can't breathe."
"I can't breathe."
"I can't breathe."
"I can't breathe."
"I can't breathe."
"I can't breathe."
"I can't breathe."

They did nothing.

One last time, he gasped, "I can't breathe."
They did nothing.

He lost consciousness.
They did nothing.

A firefighter demanded they check his pulse.
They did nothing.

Off duty medical personnel begged them to stop.
They did nothing.

Deprived of oxygen.
His organs screaming.
His brain frantic.
They did nothing.

They watched George Floyd die.
His life fading.
A slow death.
They did nothing.

A lynching on the ground.
They did nothing.

For eight agonizing minutes.
Four officers watched.

He cried out for his Mom...
A grown man...
Crying out for the woman who gave him life....
As he feared joining her in death.
And still they did nothing.

A black man.
A gentle giant.
Murdered because he was black.
And still, they've done nothing..

The officers should be arrested.
And still they've done nothing.

REST IN PEACE 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

May justice be served.

Sharing to everyone.

DON'T BREAK THE CHAIN

BLACK IS HUMAN TOO, NO HUMAN BEING IS MORE HUMAN THAN ANOTHER HUMAN

Rest in peace George Floyd.
I am so hurt, and so angry that this has happened.
I've read about so many police murdering people of colour in the states. They all hit hard, but this makes me cry every time I read about him.

It was a public lynching, nothing short of that and all Trump can do is hide in a bunker and threaten a violent response. Grotesque

They killed him.

They killed him.

They killed him.

They killed him.




Anyone who doesn’t come out and ask for change, who doesn’t demand change is complicit.
