Two Protests Over the Death of George Floyd in Humboldt County Today
Image from the Facebook post of Humboldt Grassroots calling for the Eureka protest at 3 p.m.
Two separate groups will gather in Humboldt County today to protest the killing of George Floyd, Monday in Minneapolis, Minnesota by four city police officers. Floyd’s death, captured on video, caused outrage and sparked riots including several in major cities for several days. Last night, protests had spread across the nation from Atlanta to L.A. One man was killed in Detroit, buildings were set on fire in Minneapolis, and two protesters were injured when an SUV appeared to deliberately strike them in San Jose.
All four of the officers involved in the death of George Floyd have been fired. One has been arrested and charged with third degree murder and manslaughter.
Calls for a protest in Garberville are circulating on social media. “There will be a protest at 12:30 in the center of Garberville, at the clock,” reads one. “George Floyd was brutally murdered by a police officer in Minneapolis and the outrage has permeated the community and beyond. Demonstrations, sometime violent, are happening across the country. To join ours come to the clock at 12:30.”
Farther north in the county, Humboldt Grassroots has called in a post on Facebook for the community to join them in a protest at 3 p.m. at the Eureka Courthouse. The protest event page states, “This demonstration is in solidarity of everyone who has experienced harm and loss due to police violence, everyone who is vulnerable to being victimized by the police, and everyone for whom the U.S. legal system has failed to deliver justice.”
As of 7 a.m., the event notes that 376 have said they are going and 984 are interested.
Below is the statement in full posted on the event page:
HUMBOLDT COUNTY COURTHOUSE
SOCIAL DISTANCE DEMONSTRATION
STAND WITH MINNEAPOLIS:
JUSTICE FOR GEORGE FLOYDIn consideration of our community’s health and safety in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, please wear a mask and keep appropriate distance from other demonstrators. It’s alright if the demonstration needs to stretch up the block and beyond.
As righteous outrage spreads across the country and the globe over the brutal and unjustified murder of George Floyd by members “killers-at-large” of the Minneapolis Police Department, the people of Humboldt will gather to show solidarity and support for the Floyd Family and the folks taking action in Minneapolis.
Truly, police brutality is experienced by people in every place that police exist, and across the U.S., Black people and other people of color are disproportionately victimized and murdered by police. This demonstration is in solidarity of everyone who has experienced harm and loss due to police violence, everyone who is vulnerable to being victimized by the police, and everyone for whom the U.S. legal system has failed to deliver justice.
Join us, as we endeavor to proclaim and demand that our world be free from the oppression, anxiety, fear, and hopelessness that this violent, racist, and murderous system imposes on us.
Bring bullhorns, bring drums, bring signs, bring your friends and neighbors, because what happened in Minneapolis could happen here, has happened here, and will happen here again and in other places so long as we remain silent and submissive.
No Justice, No Peace.

🕯🌳Second footage shows three officers kneeling on him.👁⚖👁⚖👁
Yes, I understand there was three…two on his back, one on his neck. So, so sad and cruel. Purposeful, murder.
Agreed it was a “purposeful murder”. There’s more to this story than rogue cops offing a guy because he’s Black. Derek Chauvin and George Floyd knew each other. They worked over a year, at the same time, and at the same nightclub in S/E Minneapolis called the El Nuevo Rodeo as security guards. Have you seen a single reference to that in the MSM? I’m no journalist, but that’s a fact I’d follow up like an Arkansas hound dog.
Yes ive seen it its on national news. Not hidden.
If you read what the owner said, they crossed paths on Tuesdays when all security guards worked due to large crowds. She said she wasn’t aware of them knowing one another. But goes to show who George was and on some level that the cop killed one of his own.
Isnt it more interesting that an active duty cop uses his off time to play security guard, an easy position to be an abuser.
His wife filed for divorce, usually these characters are domestic abusers so maybe shes finally free.
When they tried to pass regs years ago to limit those guilty of domestic abuse in owning guns they couldn’t pass it as over 50% of offenders were leos.
Read about net neutrality and why youll get different results for the same search in different search engines.
If anyone does go to a protest with potential teargas, bring vinegar and put it on your bandana that goes over your face, itll cut the tear gas. Trust me vinegar smells way better than tear gas.
Pepper spray best easy off is liquid antacid and yogurt.
You can find online the results of many tests done by medical activist collectives after WTO to see what helped the best with pepper spray. The nerve gas is really hard to get off, they mixed it with teargas at WTO so watch out!
Good, I’m pleased to hear the MSM is at least mentioning that fact. What I want to hear from them is that they’re investigating the depth of their relationship if any exists. Did Mr. Floyd (from what I’ve read, he was a straight-up guy) know something about Chauvin that would implicate Chauvin in a crime? There’s more to this story than meets the eye. Wish I would of known about the vinegar when I went through basic training.
Hey, great excuse to install marshal law, let’s keep it up!
Well, i guess if youre white, shelter in place, I think I’ll wear a black lives matter t shirt when I go get my “essentials “.
I just got my “If you don’t vote Biden, you ain’t black” tshirt. That ought to work.
Could you direct me to somewhere where I can research that
But people who protest for liberty from government’s tyrannical moves are not encouraged to gather.
Mike Tyson was right … Too bad we’re all so gas-lit by the MSM
Being asked to wear a mask is a far cry from being killed by the police (aka the government) – do you really, truly, honestly believe that your supposed right to ignore public health advise is more important and more worthy of protest than George Floyd’s actual Constitutional rights to a fair trial, to be free from cruel and unusual punishment, to receive equal treatment under the law and, damnit, his very basic human right to live? And, besides, the protesters against pandemic policies have been allowed to protest. They have been allowed to carry weapons into government buildings. They have been allowed to say that slaves should be muzzled but white women should not have to wear cloth face masks. These protests have been allowed and encouraged – don’t you read these comment sections? Your supposed grievances are meaningless.
Being ordered by bill gates to ‘wear a mask’ for this fake scamdemic is a death sentence for old people suffering pulmonary problems, not to mention rebreathing your filth all day will make anyone sick, like you trying to force me, a disabled Vietnam vet, to wear a mask is a hostile intent. [edit]
Liked a comment
No one is arresting you nor do you face the potential of being killed for wearing a mask.
We wear masks for the same reason we dont smoke cigarettes inside, common courtesy for others health.
Ya go tell your theories to the family in del norte who got gave birth at the hospital and now they and their 19 day old baby have it from the obstetrics section. Im sure they want to hear about how fake it is.
Its not like people get better and are all good, it leaves lasting damage. People i know with it are taking 4-6 weeks to really feel better. All i can hope is you deniers get it, get sick quik and go away. Please dont utilize health care since its a fake ailment youllbe fine.
Personal freedoms??? So if I came into your biz buck naked smoking a joint youll protect my freedoms?
Im definitely not wearing shoes into stores these days either, no shirt no shoes no service violates my rights! !!! Why arent you standing up for those rights? ? If i wanna wave my big ole titties around in your store i have the right! !!
If you really mean what you say youll back me up! !! I wanna smoke anywhere i like even on planes and in restaurants and on your kids school bus. Why wont you stand up for the rights of smokers and nudists? ??? Hypocrites.
Thank you
BOOM!! The analogy between wearing a mask and not smoking in public places is great.
I guess I can urinate & defecate wherever I want, then… What’s your address, again?
Seriously, my dad (40 years ago) was yelled down by a couple of anti-Hispanics when my dad was speaking Spanish to me walking into a store… I’ve heard the same kind of hatred spewed towards other Hispanics, even toward things like businesses having signs & billboards in Spanish for customers who speak Spanish (even if they also speak English)…
If you’re so put off by public health efforts (meant to protect by mitigating the spread of a horrible virus), are you also put off by those trying to tell others what language they can use between themselves or in their business efforts?
Mr. Jefferson, in your first three comments here you’ve denigrated an entire race twice and pushed towards threats of violence as well as pushed false conspiracy theories. The Redheaded Blackbelt is not the right fit for you. You have been banned.
Thank you, Kym. His behavior is what is wrong with our society: lack of empathy and promoting hate.
Poor baby!
Covid is a death sentence for “old people suffering pulmonary problems” Buddy! when you aren’t in public take the mask off! Those others must be wearing masks to help protect YOU. Masks being a bigger problem than this Corona virus is just nonsense repeated by folks trying to make this political. If a mask raises CO2 to dangerous levels, then humans would have been wiped out long ago[edit].
You’ll have to use your imagination as to what humans have been doing since long ago, that can lower your O2 -CO2 exchange for between 40 seconds and 40 min…. Daily if you are lucky!
Old people w/pulmonary problems don’t have to wear masks – tho’ I’m 77 with a tendency to get pneumonia, and it hasn’t hurt me yet. If it cut down my oxygen too much, I’d breathe faster to make it up, and that hasn’t happened yet.
Agree
Bandaid on a gunshot wound.
There’s a difference between protesting and rioting, and there’s a difference between rioting and looting. I hope that the people figure this out and actually organize to have their voices and demands heard, the nation is with them but when you start looting you lose all the support that you have gained. Do you want to fight for social equality? Or do you want a big screen? Cause if you just want a big screen and to burn some buildings the National guard is going to show up and put a stop to your looting and nothing will change, their call.
Apparently you have not paid attention to the violence perpetrated & supported by our system of government & industry against people of color for the last 250 years. To call the tiny response a problem when you do not acknowledge it’s cause puts you squarely on the wrong side of the issue.
Damn British heritage! We should all follow the lead of India… China… Somalia… Russia… Well, maybe we should give the US a little credit for trying… Just to encourage it.
So somehow history justifies rioting and looting? Sadly, a worthy cause is being overshadowed by such things. There’s a whole segment of the population that doesn’t give a shit about justice but sees protests as an opportunity to what they’d like to do full-time: loot, destroy, and do other thug things.
In another 9 months, covid 19 will be the least of all our worry’s. Don’t you guys get it? This is where the government wAnts us! Install fear. Install division, install anger, install government control. We are the experiment. We are all to blame
Well, it’s where trump & Putin want us, anyway!
Another brain-dead Russiagater. It’s as discredited a conspiracy theory as there ever was.
Jim Brickley, do another inventory of where the hell you get your facts. This is bull Shay. And you may as well get used to it. We will destroy ourselves with our technologies and sciences, how we are destroying our environment, the nuclear capabilities we have or some kind of virus we develop in one of our many laboratories. THAT IS IF THE ASTEROID DOES DESTROY THE EARTH. When Trump pulled out of the Paris Climate Accord, that was the biggest mistake he could have made. Thank God, Biden is working to get us back in along with NATO, repairing our relationship with our Allies that Trump destroyed. He did exactly what Putin WANTED HIM TO…SEPARATED OUR COUNTRY…AND DESTROYED OUR GOVERNMENT.
Most likely this rioting will force less government orders. Some thing more immediate to large cities than covid-19 has gained their attention and maybe they will think twice about the effects of locking down people’s jobs. This has hopefully shattered the sense of government control that decided that adding economic stress to pandemic stress would be a good thing. Maybe the press will tone down their rhetoric if they see a connection between what they say and what people will do.
🕯🌳What I fine sad to see is that in a riot they are usually burning and looting from there own neighborhoods. They need to go to the neighborhood of the accused and riot. 🖖🐸🌍 I really don’t think things like this should be meant with violence but I can understand the frustration of the cause. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
No. Then others in the neighborhood who had nothing to do with it suffer. What if it was your neighborhood? Still think it’s right to do it?
The Minnesota governor is actively seeking the Antifa crowd, they have them on cameras, they tracked them in their cars, they are going after them. I bet there will be agents at the clock today. There are ways to notify the right agencies about even small gatherings like this. And are there going to be local people there to stop the Antifa clowns from damaging our town? And taking their pictures to turn them in to the agencies for processing. Don’t hurt our townspeople, don’t hurt our town.
Use your own handle.
They better just be protesting and not rioting , i won’t tolerate that shit in my neighborhood
Is that a threat of vigilante reaction? Sure seems like it from this end.
So if some angry mob showed up to burn down your home or business what would you do?
“ call the racist cops “
Lol at your logic
It worked in Koreatown in 92. The Koreans started defending their homes and businesses with guns and the pogrom stopped.
You do tolerate the racism that causes it though.
You know nothing and assume whatever fuels hate. Can you even identify racism or do you just assume that identity is enough to go on?
Guest tolerates bigotry of any red stripe. Cries his heart out about blue striped anything.
Sure racism causes riots: the rioters are racist.
🕯🌳In the 60’s I had them in my neighborhood. 🖖🐸🌍
Rioters are not “protesters”, they’re thieves and arsonists.
And usually are undercover cops.
Its a tactic used in Germany and saw it widely used in many big protests around the country. Its done to justify cops attacking crowd.
In fact after the DNC with Clinton/Gore there was am article in the LA Times about how the LA cops dressed and acted to infiltrate. They were very proud of knowing to wear Mumia bandanas.
A conspiracy theory that the rioters are cops?
There is an active theory that the first window smashed in MSP was broken by an off duty St. Paul cop. Maybe BS, maybe not. Sure enough, the photo of the window smasher does look a hell of a lot like the cop.
Conspiracy theory, maybe. But, as noted, it is a conspiracy theory borne out by the facts from previous similar events. Rogue actors or organized infiltrators, either way, can create the on the ground circumstances for cops to behave like the thugs they want to be. With all the authority and lawlessness that their badges give them.
My privilege lets me espouse these theories from a keyboard, instead of with a cop’s knee on my neck. But, I’d be all for smashing the system if the justice the system offered me was similar to what is normal when it comes to cop on black violence in this country. Amazing how things suddenly feel so elevated when the violence is directed at white owned property instead of black bodies.
They have agents who work for police departments who specifically try and infiltrate political groups who are against the status quo. I personally experienced this in Denver in 2002 while staging protests. We were approached by a “punk” looking twenty-something individual who claimed to want to join our group. Later that week, Denver police raided a house party of one of the known organizers the day before a scheduled protest. Arrested 15+ people so they wouldn’t be able to demonstrate the next day. We saw that “punk kid” the next day at the courthouse in dress clothes chatting comfortably with police and lawyers. Two weeks later, the FBI came to one of my friends house and threatened her and other protesters who were staying there. She was later interviewed by Larry King. This is not conspiracy. This happens all the time.
It happened here in Eureka, also.
About ten years ago, there were two different “Green Party” groups trying to organize in Eureka. One of them was legitimate. The other was a fake group, headed by a fake undercover, who wanted nothing more than to trick people into showing up, to gather their information, to infiltrate their circles, and to create chaos. I had to get tipped off by others who were privy to what was actually going on, and when I went home to investigate on the internet, I found two separate web-pages for each group claiming to be the real one.
There’s also footage on Twitter from the rally at Union Square in NY where they show undercover agitators, (dressed in plain-clothes), who are wearing white bandannas around their arms to code their identities among themselves and the cops.
And I saw it myself, too, when I was at the anti-war protests in LA in ’02 or ’03. There were agitators there, who no one knew, who were bat-shit crazy, and belligerent, and who were raising tension-levels to all-time highs… ultimately to endanger those of us who were there to demonstrate.
The whole under-cover saboteur in disguise thing is totally real, and par for the course. Thanks for sharing your experience, Just sayin’, although, what a shitty experience.
Thanks for sharing your experience as well. The bush administration was super scared about anti war protests in the early 2000s, and was extremely heavy handed. It is always important for counter culture groups to be aware of infiltrators and to take care of them internally.
And, many of them are white, right wing, fascist, boogaloos starting fires in predominantly black neighborhoods. Not a conspiracy, it’s their actual tactics. No need to spout off about conspiracy theories.
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/minneapolis-protest-riot-umbrella-man-george-floyd-a9539741.html
Way to stoke conspiracy theories. A multifaceted fantasy of violence condoned and encouraged.
How is it a conspiracy when it’s on video, plain as daylight? There were only about 1,000 people there with their cellphones, time-stamping everything.
Thanks for that link, White Riot. I heard about this, but had been unable to find the footage. It’s damning. I heard these were the first windows broken, in all of Minneapolis, that fomented the looting. These same a$$holes started the fires, too.
After Oscar Grant was killed in Oakland the white Santa Cruz anarchists were the ones setting fires to garbage cans etc. marching down in the Avenues, where it’s ALL Asian, Latino, and Black. My parents’ car windshield was busted out, and they’re as sympathetic to the “cause” as anybody. Shoulda been burnin and looting in Walnut Creek, or wherever that Meserly guy was from. But hey, in Minneapolis they did burn down one of the police precinct buildings…
Ugly and you don’t even recognize it.
What happened in Minneapolis to George Floyd was absolutely horrendous. BUT, another gathering of protesters at the Humboldt courthouse? Just don’t sit in the street, or block traffic, (or start fires and loot as has happened elsewhere). When any of that happens, I (and likely most people) lose all respect for the protesters’ cause, WHATEVER THE CAUSE.
Then what do you think will finally make a difference? Please enlighten us on how to change this f***** up society we’re living in. Peaceful protest’s have been tried over and over, it is now time to stand up and take action for the injustices that are happening all around you. Just because your privileges may be inconvenienced due to a protest and you can sit there and bitch about looting when AmeriKKKas police force disproportionately kill POC, then you should realize you’re a part of the problem.
Perhaps the people that built the stores in that community DID try to make a difference.
Protesters have every right to protest.
Looters and arsonists aren’t there because they care. They just see the opportunity for a new pair of Nikes, rip the pharmacy for some drugs, a bottle of booze, and a 60″ TV.
Then there are the paid agitators, most of whom wouldn’t know George Floyd pic . if it slapped them in their face.
The cops that murdered that man are the ones responsible … no one else,
and they will be held accountable.
The looters should be too.
There is no excuse for what happened to Floyd neither is there any excuse for burning down the services the community desperately needs, especially the elderly and disabled in that community.
Great post ,got coffee .
These rioters are nothing but opportunists looking to spread anarchy. They aren’t helping the situation only furthering division and hatred.
Peaceful protests do not involve the burning of low income housing or the destruction of local businesses or violence in any form.
True anarchy is the lack of chaos as most see it, anarchy is truly taking responsibility for your own actions in the scope of the greater society so that police and others are not needed.
Its not about creating chaos but creating stability. The fascists changed the meaning of anarchy to suit their purposes like in Spain when Catalonia was so independent.
If you havent experienced police brutality you wont get it. Theres only so much you can take.
Unfortunately no one pays attention unless shit gets crazy. This is far beyond just one incident its millions. People are angry. Theyre acting out. Its a lot of pent up agression.
I lived in LA as a teen and saw police beat the shit out of my friends starting at age 13. Nope im not of color i was a punk&they hated us too, or really just knew we were easy targets like people of color who were poor and not going to be believed in a court room. My work got destroyed in the riots there but I understood why. Yes it was scary but not too surprising, you could feel the pressure building. I hear LA has felt that way again in the last few years with the housing costs so high and downtowm being completely gentrified!
“Peace will only prevail after anarchy reigns.” (Me)
I don’t blame the rioters. I blame the sick inhuman cop culture that led to an unarmed man being Tortured to death for ten minutes. All four of those pieces of shit sat there and did nothing as the man cried for help. This shit has been going on for way too long. Cops wanna keep acting like this?!? Burn the mother fucker down!!!
Burn the system down or burn down your local barbershops, loot all your local businesses? If I have a friend get shot and killed should I start looting all the local legal pot growing operations? I laughed when I saw they took over the 3rd precinct, and wished them the best, then I sat shaking my head as I watched them loot and burn down their community. As far as I’m concerned those cops should be convicted of murder and well looters should be tried for looting. Maybe I feel different than you because I know the people that own and work the businesses in my community
OPT OUT
This society is not so “f***** up” as full of people who are “f***** up.” Angry, on hair triggers, wanting others to fix their problems or wanting to fix other people, envious, disrespectful, eagerly listening to every incitement, unreasonable, drug ridden, narcissistic, uninterested and bloody stupid. And no agenda is free from them.
Reality check.
Society is made up of the people who comprise it.
Sorry for the reality check. Please carry on with your wise philosophical statement.
There will always be people who hate and do the wrong thing. George Floyd should have received a citation NOT a death sentence. A man in Maryland was apprehended, handcuffed and sitting inside the police car in January when a police officer shot and killed him. Don’t become what you hate. Get involved in the justice system and become an advocate against police brutality.
He died. He was not sentenced.
He was obviously being metaphorical. I guest it went over your head.
@me- “HOW DARE YOU STOP ME FROM GOING TO COSTCO!!!”
Exactly the reason these protests need to happen. To stop people dead in their normal tracks to get them to realize that our system allows many to go about their daily lives while it subjects others to violence, oppression, and exploitation.
But hey, I hear those chicken bakes are great!
For all you know they drove in from Hayfork.
I’ll be seriously impressed if they get a crowd in this weather, that being said I wonder if the same people are going to be trying to shame them for endangering our entire community like the previous protesters, or does the covid thing take breaks for things that you like?
The organizers don’t have jobs (not real jobs anyway) why not do this on Monday when the weather is better?
They are super duper excited and imaptient to show off how woke they are. Probably didn’t even think about the rain .
Do you need to be “woke” to be outraged by this murder? I thought you just needed a brain and a heart.
Were you “woke” enough to be outraged when police are murdered in ambush? Or are you simply asleep at the wheel in your conflating policing of pot policy with police of any stripe?
What does pot have to do with this? I’m outraged anytime an innocent unarmed person is tortured to death. Makes it more outrageous that it was cops who did it. Go back to sleep you have no intelligent point to make.
I’ll just quote you to illustrate the ugliness-
“I don’t blame the rioters. I blame the sick inhuman cop culture that led to an unarmed man being Tortured to death for ten minutes. All four of those pieces of shit sat there and did nothing as the man cried for help. This shit has been going on for way too long. Cops wanna keep acting like this?!? Burn the mother fucker down!!!”
People who sympathize with this type of police behavior are also usually nazi sympathizers. That’s the ugly thing. People protesting and rioting when the police use heavy handed crowd control on peaceful protesters are the result. Remember the unarmed and cooperative man who was tortured to death by the police? That was the cause. Your stance on every issue I’ve ever heard is ignorant and ugly.
The trashing and looting tends to be the cause of police to use heavy handed crowd control, not vice-versa. There’s footage of the police in Minneapolis evacuating a black stabbing victim and arresting the white stabber under borderline riot conditions, using just enough force to secure themselves while they took care of that bit of police business. Wanna “burn the motherfucker down?” You get what’s coming to you. That is, if you’re actually doing it and not just talking tough through your keyboard.
No, it’s super wrong and bad what happened and does happen. But it’s called a bandwagon, and with the shutter in place im sure folks are really excited to go hang out with like minded people right now. Im just being realistic. I mean protesting here will not do anything, trust me. But have at it, I’m not deturing anyone from going and holing up look at me signes.
Thanks for the information. I will make certain I’m nowhere near these events. For those who do attend, hopefully PEACEFUL will stay in everyone’s mind. If not, hopefully law enforcement will arrest anyone who tries to turn it violent.
The mans hands were cuffed behind his back I know the helpless feeling that gives a man.
STOP resisting STOP resisting is there favorite phrase. Bastards
I seen the video of Mr Floyd once.
I can’t watch it it’s so sickening
Why keep struggling when there are only negative results for doing it? What alternatives do want to see?
You mean the man struggling to breathe? It’s kinda hard to quit struggling to breathe when you know the result will be your death. Did you watch the video or are you just trolling the comments?
You know they knew each other and worked togeather for 17 years. Theres a lot more to this. He didnt die of affection.
Anarchy is not the answer. Look into this group before signing on with them.
http://www.humboldtgrassroots.com/about-us/
I am praying a lot more these days.
“I am praying a lot more these days.”
ROTFLOL you want to talk about what answers then dont undermine your words with references to silly superstitions.
People praying is good. People talking shit and being insulting to other beliefs is ignorance manifest.
And yet…
And yet….? There you have it.
There was how many officers and how many people watching/ filming? Why didn’t anyone intervine? Why didn’t any citizen put that cop under citizens arrest? Why did the cop do this in the first place? Where was this piece of human shits leadership?
So many failures broke down to allow this to happen. Told my wife to prepare that for me to get shot. As a US Marine, my sole purpose in life is to defend against justice. If I saw that shit going down I would have intervened to attempt to stop it, rather than just stand around and watch someone thats supposed to protect us, murder another human right in front of me.
Everyone around here talks a big game about government over reach, but when it happens time and time again, then WE as citizens of this country are failing and allowing it to happen. Make changes or we are the next China. AND EVERY SINGLE ONE OF US THAT DO NOT PARTICIPATE IN AN INFORMED DEMOCRATIC PROCESS ALLOWED THIS TO HAPPEN.
Too many good people fear the cops. We civilians pay cops and marines to protect us. Thank you, and damn right it is about voting.
Well said.
Every single one of us hasn’t a clue what is going on in a situation like that while it is going on. All people here seem to know is they hate all police or they trust all police but despite the blather, 99% of the people who actually do risk themselves do it on behalf of the police. Not the opposite.
Actually if you watch the videos you can see exactly what was happening. To your other attempt at making a point, just because people with a conscious are outraged and horrified by the police torture and killing of an unarmed man, doesn’t imply that they hate all police at all. It’s ugly to sympathize with murderers just because they are police.
BS. No way would you have stepped in. No way would you, by yourself, have stepped in to try and stop 4 cops from doing what they were doing. Citing your military background doesn’t help, especially considering how many members of the US military stood back and watched while other atrocities occurred (Dresden, Vietnam, Custer, etc. etc. etc.). Membership in that club doesn’t put you above anybody else.
Even if you would have, that things have gotten to the point where that is even debatable should be enough for you to understand the rage and fear felt by communities of color in this country. Not everybody has your training. Not everybody wants to be a martyr. They just don’t want to be killed, abused, and treated like dirt by the authorities whose slogan is to protect and serve.
As a Marine sure I’m the exception in so many ways from anyone around me yes. Am I willing to martyr for a just cause, my fellow citizens and my country…uhhhh yup thats why Marines are Marines. That should also serve to show that I’m telling people to make our country free from tyranny, but setting the example myself.
Were this way because people not willing to step up, actively participate in our every single day process of freedom from the ground up and demanding our leaders actually lead. US citizens for the vast majority are lazy, self centered, ill informed, and apathetic. Obviously not everyone, but a clear vast majority.
These incidents happen because of apathy and laziness by all of us pure and simple. This country was formed on martyrs dying to make this country free.
Just haven’t found any such incidents despite your firm belief that they continuously happen? Real bad luck there.
Great reflection Marine. The problem with our democracy is that the more you are informed about it the less you can stomach voting for the rep or dem parties. Both are actively working against the interests of the majority of our people. Both are treasonous corrupt criminals. I appreciate your defensive nature and would join you in fighting against tyrants.
For the greater profit of pot growing?
Trolling me with ignorant remarks about pot again guest? Don’t you have a nazi sympathizers anonymous meeting to be at?
Yup disgusts me daily, and one reason I’ve suffered major depression since getting out. Sometimes the red pill sucks. Sometimes I want to be inserted back into the matrix.
I won’t make the local protest, but I will put in my best response I found. The language is strong, but with a tragedy like this it seems appropriate.
https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2020/5/29/1948608/-Liberal-Redneck-here-puts-it-best-on-the-latest-George-Floyd-developments
Trae Crowder is the best! plenty of rednecks are smart. A majority of Americans are great people! theres smart people who are willfully ignorant, and a difference between someone willfully ignorant and a trusting person being lied to.
The damn cop had his knee on the mans neck for about ten minutes, while George kept telling them he could not breathe. The cop should be sent to prison for man slaughter, and the others arrest and put in prison for doing nothing to help George. They arrested the cop and fired the others. Those cops were not fit to wear a proud uniform. I feel so very sorry for George and his family. There is no excuse for police officers doing this to anyone!!
May he RIP. God bless.
🕯🌳There was another camera angle from behind and it showed two other police officers kneeling on him to. Why weren’t they charged?🌍🐸🖖⚖⚖
The police union trained the police on the maneuver that killed George Floyd.

Nice middle of the road web site, no bias at all.
Covid-19 fatigue.
That’s what you’re blaming this on? Feel free to make an intelligent comment anytime.
“Let me say as I’ve always said, and I will always continue to say, that riots are socially destructive and self-defeating. … But in the final analysis, a riot is the language of the unheard. And what is it that America has failed to hear? It has failed to hear that the plight of the Negro poor has worsened over the last few years. It has failed to hear that the promises of freedom and justice have not been met. And it has failed to hear that large segments of white society are more concerned about tranquility and the status quo than about justice, equality, and humanity. And so in a real sense our nation’s summers of riots are caused by our nation’s winters of delay. And as long as America postpones justice, we stand in the position of having these recurrences of violence and riots over and over again.”
MLK Jr., 1967
How true his eloquent words are ..and applicable 53 years later! It is so Tragic-there are no words.. Just heartbreaking on so many levels! May we truly become “ Free at Last”!!
I mean im 45 now and I can remember Rodney king la riots police on blacks in the 90s I mean Ice Cube built his whole career for the past 30 years telling us this has been going on. Yet we are still here in this situation today. Sounds like our police system needs a major overhaul and better leadership all across the board. Leadership starts at the top all the way up to our commander in chief. If our leaders leading and policing our country fail, then who can you trust to lead you in times when a clear darkness. It doesn’t happen. it just turns into chaos aka Syria aka civil war.
As many people that are protesting and rioting, there should be that many people demanding change to the leadership and the way our police force is run. There should be citizens exercising our rights down at the police station, making sure our cops are being trained properly.
Not saying the force wasn’t excessive, but I only see video of 3 officers on the man. WHere is the before footage to show why 3 police officers felt the need to use excessive force? I can see 1 bad cop, but not 3 with a forth looking on. Something does not add up
As much as I am reluctant to comment on race, religion, or politics… now is the time I am willing to make an exception.
It is time to be very firm in demanding that police departments get rid of any bad cops. The cop that killed George Floyd has had EIGHTEEN reprimands. I believe that a cop can make a mistake and needs a second chance, but it should be a value judgement on the cops mistake. Under no condition should a cop be allowed to make that many “mistakes”and remain on the police force.
I support police one-hundred percent, because we need them. That support DOES NOT include bad cops!… I know that good law officers are hard to come by, but that is not an excuse to keep an angry rogue officer on any police force. Yes, firm enforcement is necessary. It is also important to not resist an officers demands. A strategic retreat is an important element of any battle. Make your case before a judge.
I will be at the protest in Garberville today. Along with the very wise people that realize that protests do work when they are sincere.
Protesters are a lot like police forces, there are good protesters and there are bad protesters. We need to not allow out of control idiots that demean or diminish our legitimate protest. Controlled anger is very effective, out of control anger does not work. It takes the focus off the point of the protest. Take lots of photos of anyone out of control. Then demand that they be punished accordingly. The catch and release of criminals has to stop. Rogue cops have to GO.
Well said.
What if he was violent and aggressive because of drug use? Or suicidal? From what I read he was not typically a violent man for all having been a bouncer at a club. But no one has yet written about what happened before the cops forced him down.
” forgery in progress” the store clerk thought he had a fake twenty. Somebody tried to pass a fake twenty off on me once. I didn’t get killed for trying to deposit it at the bank. The clerk said it was police brutality. So the cops weren’t representing him either. There’s pics from social media with the cop wearing a “Make White Great Again” hat.
Did you realize “Make America Great Again” is lifted from “Make America White Again” billboards that were all over the South into the early Eighties. I read a book by a Eureka woman trucker, published in the pre trump era, where she mentioned seeing those billboards while driving cross country.
It’s possible. I might have missed them. But then again it sounds like the same sort of claim that all conspiracies make. This article alleges that not only was the cop not the person in the photo but that the person in the photo said the hat was photoshopped to say that.
https://www.dailydot.com/irl/george-floyd-derek-chauvin-make-whites-great-again-hat/
That was a fake pic. Uncencored by Twitter.
It’s all on video. To be informed you need watch both of them. It helps to be informed of the content before commenting. To do otherwise is ignorant.
Yah keep trying to come up with reasons this murder was justified Guest. Ugly and ignorant to sympathize with murderers.
“Make your case before a judge.”
That’s a great theory, but too many people don’t live to see a judge. Cops will quite happily kill anyone for any reason or for no reason at all – even a guy in his own apartment eating icecream, for example. It’s not just an attitude – they’re trained to shoot first and ask questions later, even if the question is their own lack of understanding of the situation. Whenever police are involved, you need to be ready to instantly either escape or preemptively use force if it looks like the only option, as it’s the only way you might make it to a judge. You are not safe any time a cop is present.
Yes that has some bits of truth in it but then the people they deal with are even more violent, bigoted and ready to kill them too. Maybe those who make such statements ought to do some self examination. You might have seen what you allege but I have at least three times seen cops, both in uniform and out, intervene to save someone from themselves. And once take over from me as I tried ineffectively to stop a drunk man from beating an equally drunk woman. If you want less violent cops, encourage a law abiding populace. And good luck with that.
The article isn’t about your hearsay. It’s about a documented occurrence that made national news. About a man being Tortured to death by your heroes.
We need a full on country side rebellion or risk losing everything people have died for, everyone needs to get out and demonstrate. We have alot more at risk than more covid patients. All members of Congress need to step down and rewrite the Constitution.
Too much social media. I suggest reading Animal Farm by George Orwell.
He said on social media.
Indeed, and unfruitful interactions like these illustrate that point.
All people who protest in violent displays should be arrested! How does this send a message to anyone? How about the innocent people that are harmed by this? Riots only make me less sympathetic to a cause,, how can one engage with criminals?
Kym. Troll alert. God what comes out of the woodwork in times of stress.
Violence, violence, it’s the only thing that will make you see sense….. Mott the Hoople.
Who benefits?

I’m really trying my hardest not to just sit down and binge watch reallygracefull’s entire channel. I don’t agree with everything she posits, but some of the things she puts togather really get me thinking.
I know I had the advantage of knowing how the video played out, but I kept telling the people there to push the cop. Defend him and take the consequences. Unfortunately mob violence only results in a stronger reciprocating force from the State. The pent up energy from SIP combined with the rage of feeling marginalized is going to make this whole thing violently explode. Brutality from those who abuse their authority is not a racial issue; it is the hard push by the State to subjugate the People.
https://www.rutherford.org/publications_resources/john_whiteheads_commentary/the_slippery_slope_to_despotism_paved_with_lockdowns_raids_and_forced_vaccinations
Pent up energy from years of media pushing the racist cop narrative. Don’t get me wrong, there are bad cops, this looks like a prime example, maybe, we’ll see.
But this is after years of false lies and narratives.
Proof….look back on the media narrative of Trayvon.
Trayvon wasn’t the innocent young man from the several year old pictures the media used.
Zimmerman isn’t white
Zimmerman was getting seriously assulted by trayvon.
If you take the time to read the in depth actually researched articles, and compare it to the msm narrative….you will see that the media maximized the racist narrative, ignored facts and truth, and purposely fueled the civil disobedience we see now.
In short. The msm narrative is playing it’s viewers and destroying this country. Today the officials in Minnesota claim that the rioters are white supremacists. Really? The crowds shouting “Black lives matter” are white supremacists? Who believes this crap? Too many, unfortunately.
Agreed. The use of identity politics to create divisiveness has been pushed by MSM relentlessly. I don’t know if it’s just an easy narrative to push to get eyeballs on the screen or if there is an intent to create the illusion to divide the people.
“We must, indeed, all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately.”
Benjamin Franklin
Here’s a video of rioters beating the shit out of a black guy in Texas.
https://twitter.com/ElijahSchaffer/status/1266614898219462657?s=20
It is a big world. There are all kinds out there, but does that represent the people as a whole. No, it does not. I mean I can find a video of almost anything anytime, it’s 2020.
Now apply what you just said about cop killing a black guy. See how that works?
Intent. Globalist Agenda. Destroy the American Dream. Make us like EU. Inalienable becomes alienable.
Bill Barr USAG …..” it’s a federal crime to cross state lines to incite violence. If caught they will be held accountable.”
Anyone wonder why these riots are in Democrat held cities? I’m sure Republican cities have plenty POC.
Atlanta (GA), Washington DC, Houston (TX), New York City (NY), Los Angeles (CA) Oakland (CA) + + +
Many people are calling for federal intervention; however, that type of confrontation is the intended goal of the social anarchy crowd. The leftist chaos is purposeful bait.
Local authorities in/around the urban danger zones have the primary responsibility to maintain domestic tranquility. Federal intervention to replace local political ineptitude, and lack of desire to confront a crisis of their own creation, is short-sighted.
If local officials and/or state governors are not going to take action; factually they do not want to take action because they are fearful of backlash from their own tribe; then federal assistance doesn’t work. It is better for President Trump to watch from a distance and keep reminding the U.S. electorate how he supports, but will not replace, local officials.
Which large cities are Republican?
None.
No need to wonder:
https://www.courthousenews.com/minnesota-officials-link-arrested-looters-to-white-supremacist-groups/amp/
“Department of Safety Commissioner John Harrington said they are contact-tracing the arrested and added that an investigation is underway about white nationalist groups posting online to encourage their members to use the protests as a cover to create chaos.”
“He said some of the 40 arrests made in the Twin Cities Friday night were of people linked to white supremacist groups and organized crime.”
However, a little research will show you an analysis of the arrest records. Only 6 of the people arrested are from out of state. That, of course doesn’t mean there aren’t white supremacists from in the state. I don’t trust any of the narrative from officials at this point.
well, here is a few…., great research as usual who cares.
San Diego, California 1,355,896 $3,200,000,000 Kevin Faulconer (R)
Jacksonville, Florida 842,583 $1,040,000,000 Lenny Curry (R)
Fort Worth, Texas 792,727 $1,500,000,000 Betsy Price (R)
El Paso, Texas 674,433 $801,400,000 Dee Margo (R)
Oklahoma City, Ok 610,613 $1,100,000,000 David Holt (R)
Fresno, California 509,924 $977,000,000 Lee Brand (R)
Mesa, Arizona 457,587 $1,300,000,000 John Giles (R)
only those with a population of aprox. a half a million or more.
I wonder how many of those are majority black cities?
Does that say something about Republicans or about Democrats? The fact that there are majority black cities in a country where they are a minority says more.
So were these republican cops in a republican citiy in a republican state? Stupid republicans and their cops… this was in the Deep South right?
Let’s ignorantly make this a democrat against republican pissing contest! Hyuk!
Let’s make a comment without saying ignorant or calling someone a Nazi sympathizer. that’d be nice for a change. It’s in no way incorrect to say that Democrats have been in charge of running major cities for some time now and as such it has technically been the Dems who have been responsible for the recent systemic racism that has plagued these cities, unless wait, are you telling me that both parties are actually the same thing and only pretend to hate each other to keep control of the populace, noooo…..
Not sure what divisive rhetoric about democrat and republican parties has to do with the content of this article. Obviously you and guest have to make everything about politics because you’re a shill for the republicans and cant get your mind off the political drama. Being blinded by your love for trump is as ignorant as being blinded your hatred for him. It’s divisive and not helpful at all to any intelligent conversation.
These cities with Republican Mayors may not be doing so well in the public safety department:
Fort Worth shooting- May 11 2020 five wounded.
Fresno shooting- November 17 2019 four dead, six wounded.
El Paso shooting- August 3 2019 twenty-three dead, twenty-three wounded.
Jacksonville shooting- August 26 2018 three dead, ten wounded.
San Diego shooting- April 27,2019 one dead, three wounded.
Mesa shooting- January 18, 2016 one dead, officer found “not guilty.”
Oklahoma City shooting- May 7 2020 four injured, three of gunfire.
Details of these incidents are interesting:
Oklahoma City- A woman who took offense at the closure of a McDonald’s dining area injured an employee, then returned with a gunand wounded three more.
(In 2018 – March 24 – A man opened fire in a crowded restaurant; two unrelated bystanders retrieved guns from their cars, chased him and then shot him when he opened fire.)
Mesa- An officer shot and killed an unarmed man in a hallway who a witness had said was brandishing a gun (it was found to have been a pellet gun in the man’s hotel room). Both officer and victim were white.
San Diego- A young white man, church member, burned a mosque in late March, then attacked a synagogue in late April (the shooter was a resident of San Diego but his attacks were in Escondido and Poway).
Jacksonville- a “gamer” lost at a tournament, then shot the event up.
El Paso- An attack by a young white man specifically targetining Latino people.
Fresno- Victims were all Hmong. The shooters were members of an Asian identity gang. The shooting was at a football game watch-party.
Fort Worth- Victims and shooters were all black, at an impromptu party in a park to relieve Covid 19 isolation and boredom. Gang affiliation of the shooters is suspected.
I’m not sure Kym but all the protestors didn’t look black to me either.
I saw a lot of white faces.
It’s ok to call all republicans racists but it gets touchy if you remind Dems of the Weather Underground or Al Sharpton, Jessie Smollet, or Nick Sandman.
I certainly haven’t heard any fuss over this….
Police probe 2nd nursing home beating video as alleged victim’s family plans lawsuit
https://www.detroitnews.com/story/news/local/detroit-city/2020/05/27/police-probe-2nd-nursing-home-beating-video-as-alleged-victims-family-plans-lawsuit/5266403002/
hardly a peep!
Last time I checked Hispanics and Latinos were POC and I’m sure several of those cities I posted are highly populated by Latino’s.
I also know Latinos have experienced wrongful deaths as well.
So if we are going to talk about it lets not pretend it’s all one sided.
Not one person here chose their race, or can do anything about what their ancestors did or didn’t do but we can all be honest and real now.
Actually not so much in that city but surrounding ones. There is a list on Wikipedia about Latino Republicans. Not many mayors as far as I can see. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Hispanic_and_Latino_Republicans
Wait, that escalated quickly…who called all Republicans racist?
Have you watched any msm lately?
That’s the narrative, constantly repeated.
Trumps executive order is a good read. The Liberal narrative is using the media to spread. Read the Order. The future of the American Political conversation, and hence the future of America is at stakes. The American politic conversation is on social media now, and free speech is under attack. Remember the House Un American Activities? These cencorship mechanisms can be used against Liberals too, and one day, the political tide will change. You are weaving your own noose if you don’t DEMAND FREE SPEECH
I would welcome your journalistic opinion on the current social media censorship and free speech debate Kim.
There is a lot riding on it.
Trump’s EO literally sounds like it was written by the ACLU or the Electronic Frontier Foundation, as it relates to section 230. If your going to censor speech beyond obvious hate speech and the incitement of violence, you are now an editor and should not be afforded the protections of a simple content delivery system. Not a trump fan, and the EFF position on section 230 is way more nuanced, but i don’t completely disagree with this order. Now underground nuclear testing is a different story, in this case orange man bad.
Then what was the reason for mentioning “majority black cities?” If not in answer to Hot Coffee’s Democrat remark?
What exactly do you think the Jessie Smollet episode was all about or the Sandman video’s almost all MSM showed ( edited to suit their purposes ) until the truth came out and the real video was shown and CNN had to pay damages.
Aren’t those attempts to slander Republicans and create race wars?
At what point does the left have to admit their not always the victim but also a perpetrator.
Why doesn’t the left speak to Kathy Griffin’s recent tweet on how to kill Trump? etc. Where was twitters edit on that?
Hard to believe you really can’t see it.
I wouldn’t consider those Major cities, but okay. Overwhelming liberal all the same in urbania.
San Diego isn’t a major city?
It’s full of active and retired military. Large military effect on incomes. Above average white and Asian demographic and below average black. And pretty rich despite having a large homeless population.
Sure it is. But in my mind major cities in Cali are like SF, Sac, and LA. Just a opinion of the definition of MAJOR.
But who cares. Fact is rural is more R, and urban is malre D.
SF isn’t very Black anymore they have been pushed out by the high rents.
High rents were brought by high tech.
Liberal non the less.
I don’t care about skin color. Political affiliations and socio economic class is what counts.
Do you really believe there aren’t poor whites? Where do you think the term trailer trash came from?
Yes of course I do believe in poor whites.
That’s precisely why I don’t care about skin color. But I do care about socio economic statuses. So the poor part means something. The color part doesn’t.
I think you have been misunderstanding me. I’m not really arguing against anything you have said
Sure is, but the knuckleheads up here ha e no idea what their yapping about
“A riot is the language of the unheard”
— MLK
Switch the cartoon bubbles- what do you want to be when you grow up? “A cop killer.” Get real. Incite violence, create violence, endorse violence. It is your problem too.
Ho Hum….
You seem fine with endorsing violence. You seem unsympathetic to the protesting of police murder and brutality but you wanna get it all twisted to support your hateful and ugly narrative. Feel free to make an intelligent comment anytime.
Do we even know who poured the kool aid comrades?
Medical examiner preliminary autopsy report: no asphyxia and no strangulation. He had a panic and probably heart attack. He had health conditions. Bad policing for sure, but no murder. Antifa does not need a reason to riot. They are domestic terrorists.
Yeah, because the medical examiner wouldn’t intentionally lie to prevent more rioting, right? Remember, this is the PRELIMINARY report. The video clearly shows the police officer kneeling on his neck and Mr. Floyd repeatedly stated that he “couldn’t breathe.” Don’t believe everything you read, cowboy. And only half of what you see. The political spin and fallout from this is going to be HUUUGGGGEEE.
I’ll wait for the 2nd autopsy.
If three guys sit on you with one’s knee in your neck for ten minutes resulting in your death, it’s murder. Don’t get it twisted. If the police use heavy handed tactics on protesters, rioting is indeed justified.
Two wrongs don’t make a right.
Well if a cop gives a man a heart attack who’s fault is it [edit]?
The Atlanta Mayor is awesome.
Fact is, if (when) you attend a protest right now, you volunteer for surveillance. Your “phone” is always on and always monitoring. All outstanding behavior, which includes saying key words, is flagged and all subjects will be remotely tracked. Simply attending a gathering with a shelter order in place qualifies anybody to be “legally” monitored without their knowledge or consent in the first place. Not a single human, local or elsewhere, has to make it happen. That’s where the tech is, FYI. Predictive Policing.
People who don’t push other people around outnumber people who push other people around by a million to one. However, people who push other people around have never had any qualms about doing so. So the people who push other people around don’t have to push very hard at all, to make everybody do what they want. It’s been studied and practiced for a very, very long time.
Let’s spend all our time talking and thinking about race/gender/religion/sexuality some more. Every white/black/latinx/asian male/female/shemale/trans athiest/zealot will grumble to themselvse in private about decreasing quality of life in their own respective neighborhoods just the same, and wonder why nobody’s doing anything about it.
“Remember when this used to be a quiet, peaceful neighborhood?”
It’s time for the military to step in and stop you idiots by force. The level of force is up to you.
Yes! The military has always been the right answer domestically. Those damn 3rd amendment activists and the anti-soldier lobby need to be stopped for our safety and the safety of the children. We, as a country, need to adopt common sense rules around housing soldiers in our homes, and get over our biases towards having tham in our neighborhoods, protecting us and ensuring our safety, and strengthening our collective democracy. Next time a soldier is on patrol in your neighborhood, invite him into your house for coffee, and thank them for their service and your piece of mind. If your neighborhood isn’t yet occupied, show your patriotism by attending a multimillion dollar airforce flyover, and feel the pride of place well up in your throat, and tears fill your eyes. God bless our peace keepers!
Im right in there with the outrage of the people regarding the police killing but they did fire all the cops involved and arrested the officer involved .and when they turned it into a black lives matter instead of all lives matter it really made me not want to be apart of all this protest .as fact as they were yelling black lives matter someone in a vehicle yelled all lives matter and was flipped off by one of the protesters . i guess they feel its ok to kill white people just not black people .that protester that flipping off the motorist was about the most racist thing ive seen in along time .i wont ptotest in racism against anybody .i guess white people never get brutalized by police .it happens all over with all races and until that is recognized i will not protest in any of this even tho i was thourolly discusted by the police actions when this msn was killed. ALL LIVES MATTER NOT JUST BLACK LIVES AND IT IS RACIST TO YELL BLACK LIVES MATTER AND NOT ALL LIVES MATTER so good luck with youre protest .the officer involved was fired and arrested it really seems to be a wast of energy at this point wat else can be done ,he deserves a fair trial like anybody else and from wat i have seen should be no problem getting a conviction
Advocate for violence and you get deleted.
Humboldt needs to stand up for itself instead of hoping to be heard. Look at the rest of the nation. You dont need to loot or kill. If you change the environment around you though things will be forced to change. This makes some people act aweful but when theres an actual issue yall sure soften up.
What happened?
Kym kimmie. Why does the 805 area code get this website
