During week one of the Chauvin murder trial, the defense tried to put George Floyd on trial instead. When you put Floyd on trial “you’re putting Black people on trial,” @CornelWest explains to @MehdiRHasan, “so imagine that policeman my neck.”

No offense, but while we're imagining stuff, let's just make the police officers into a pack of nuclear werewolves. ... Now we're getting results.
The officer has a write to defend himself. Floyed was drug addicted. If I was the cop I would make that the center of my defence because that's all the cop has .
If you really think that white officer that murdered George is going to go to prison for murder not going to happen unfortunately going to be a mistrial or found not guilty even though the white officer is guilty
There should be no trial the officer was caught on video for over 9 minutes killing the man black man was doing fine until he came across the white racist officer he did not care that he was killing George cuz he know he was going to get off
People of color in this country better start fighting back exactly how racist white people in this country would fight them Trump and the Republican party want to bring slavery back that's why they're doing voter suppression now
People need to wake up majority of white people in this country have devalued people of color for generations nothing's going to change thatand the Republican party under Trump control Trump wants to go back to slavery
That’s how you put on a defense. Black people aren’t on trial, did Floyd die of an overdose or not. Simple.
