   Before they picked this guy they are basing all the riots, looting and   
   violence (including outright murder) on as their `martyr of opportunity'   
   they should have checked out his background first. (back in a minute)......   
      
      
   Reports are that Floyd had just tried to pass a couple of counterfeit $20   
   bills.   
      
      
   Which may be why the cops had come in contact with him to begin with.   
      
      
   Secondly, although the treatment of him during the arrest was in-excusable,   
   and the cop who was kneeling on him such that it put him in dire life   
   threatening danger should be prosecuted, Floyd is hardly the stuff of martyrs.   
      
      
   According to his past record he was a convicted felon. He had arrests for drug   
   possession, theft, and was convicted of an armed robbery in 2007 for which he   
   was sentenced to five years in prison. In the course of that armed robbery he   
   held a gun to a woman's stomach and threatened to kill her if the money wasn't   
   forthcoming!   
      
      
   Theft, various counts of possession of cocaine, criminal trespass, and he also   
   used several aliases. According to a toxicology report he had fentanyl and   
   methamphetamine in his system when he died.   
      
      
   He and the cop responsible for his death knew each other and worked together.   
   They were on some sort of security team at a night club.   
      
      
   Questions of `how did Floyd get such a job with his record'....`was there some   
   sort of grudge between him and the cop who caused his death?' won't come up   
   anytime soon.   
      
      
   Anyway, none of that matters to the left....they were looking for an excuse to   
   get a free new plasma tv and a bunch of top shelf whiskey, and Floyd is a bolt   
   out of the blue for them.   
      
      
   His death was unnecessary. Even prosecutable. But not in any way an excuse for   
   murder, looting and arson.
