George Floydd.....Charlie Kirk...

Stop and notice the difference.
GF, a violent criminal and drug addict, was hailed a hero. His death caused riots, destruction and other violence.
CK, a political activist, family man, God fearing Christian, caused no deaths, crimes, or violence, but was killed for his opinions.
What's wrong with this picture and who is responsible?

George Floyd was killed by a police officer. In this country, police officers who kill unarmed people often receive no punishment. Whoever killed Kirk will likely be given the death penalty. There is no chance they get away with it.

The reaction to Floyd’s murder was about the police and the unfair treatment of certain people. It is a totally different context than a political assassination. There have been several political assassinations in recent American history (one earlier this summer even), none of which generated even a quarter of the attention that Kirk is receiving, because he is more famous and more beloved.

But frankly I don’t care how liked he was. Whenever someone like Floyd is killed, you have people coming out to say “he was no angel”, “he deserved it”, now you know what that’s like, I guess. Personally I think unnecessary violence, whether from police or from a sniper, reflects badly on this country. And it doesn’t matter if the person killed was a petty criminal or a popular figure on social media.

@WestonT No he wasn't. He died from a drug overdose. That's a fact. The leftist narrative collapsed when the coroner came out with his report. Pay attention kid. Get your facts straight and stop with the gaslighting. 🙄

@carpediem You people are so delusional you deny what happens in front of your very eyes. No matter what the police do, there is always a pre-packaged excuse for you, isn’t there?

@WestonT Kid...the guy died from a drug overdose. That's a fact. I don't like how the police handled keeping him in check either, but that's what they were trained to do. So you can continue your childish rant, but that doesn't change the hard cold reality. The man died from a drug overdose. Period. Grow up kid and face the real world.

Edit
I guess he couldn't face the real world after all. 🥱

@carpediem Keep lying. You are the one picking and choosing who deserves to die, not me.
