What burns my ass about this whole thing is that the REAL problem is not discussed in a productive manner.

The REAL problem is the "street justice" being applied by bad cops. Not to specific races. To all races. It generally happens if there is strong resistance or disrespect to the officers. This has been ignored by police leadership for eons.

All this focusing on race covers up the real problem - "Street Justice". Period!

The cops should do their job in making arrests and leave the sentencing to the courts.

So Chauvin killed Floyd over a counterfeit $20 bill.
Chauvin now charged with under reporting $95k of earned income too....

I will completely disregard the google search ( they edit results to make the left "shine" )

I use DuckDuckGo for searches without completely biased results
https://duckduckgo.com/?q=was+george...2%3A%22b%22%7D

Another link confirming a different George Floyd
https://patriotdailypress.com/2020/0...ge-judy-video/

Turns out it's a different George Floyd on JJ

Or.....

Judge Judy wasn’t around when he was 16

Didn’t have to search either place to know it wasn’t him

OK mr know it all, JJ has been around since 1996.

George Floyd was born in 1973.

And has probably been arrested and in court 2 dozen times. I'm sure it is public record.

I'm sure he has, too. He did time in prison in Texas. But he wasn't on Judge Judy when he was 16 years old. He was 16 in 1989.

Time has a tendency to slow down when one is subjected to an event they have no interest in.
