R.I.P George Floyd.
On the 25th of May 2020 George Floyd (46) was arrested after using counterfeit money in a store. The police were using unnecessary force when arresting George.
He unfortunately passed away when the police officer used his knee to restrain George on the ground which was placed on his neck, after George repeatedly pleaded that he Couldn’t breathe the police did not listen to his cries.
As soon as the story hit the news it blew up on all social media platforms reaching all over the world. There were protests in numerous places and some of the protests even leading to riots and looting of shops all over the cities.
What happened to George was terrible and thankfully the police officer who killed George was sent down for what he did.
There have been a lot of cases where black people have been discriminated against for their colour which is an absolute disgrace.
There were a lot of protests for the Black Lives Matter movement receiving support from the white community also.
I don’t necessarily agree with the looting and riots in which happened because I think it is just giving the police force more reason to arrest the black community and the white community . I think that if the looting at riots did not happen then it would have proved the police force wrong that we can be peaceful and don’t just go out to cause trouble.
We are all equal in this world and we don’t Eva eco fight or discriminate against each other just get along it will be much easier.
