With all the pain the world is already feeling, it is shameful and wrong that yet ANOTHER disgusting, disturbing, and outright atrocious video of a human beings' life taken (by someone appointed to uphold THE RULE OF LAW with malice and forethought) would surface.

The disgusting animals knew they were being filmed, and proceeded anyway!

This should send a chilling message to ANYONE who sees the video footage of that tragedy unfold. I don't need to even mention the sheer number of similar circumstances. I am appalled.

Since hearing of the incident, and the ensuing protests going on even now, i have immersed myself in all the footage and am still learning all I can about this. I am writing this to offer a perspective that you may not be privy to in normal mainstream media channels.

Coronavirus has laid bare many ugly truths about our world. In this way we will see the cleansing effect that this can have in retrospect, as it seems to be ushering in real change.

Since George Floyd was murdered on that day, America is no longer able to hide the pain wrought by these kind of events. Protests have been started in Louisville, Chicago, Atlanta, DC, San Francisco, Houston, and seems to be gaining momentum.

They have tried to peacefully protest these exact hate crimes. I have seen them for a decade or more!

All that falls on deaf ears and gets cast to the wayside, and ultimately is IGNORED! So to be clear this is not JUST about mister Floyd. This is about us. All of us. This is not a dividing line.

Even on looting. My own views have changed so much.

When a store is ransacked and burned to the ground, people want to condemn this, but every crisis I watch as our treasury is LOOTED by billionaires and the ruling class, and we do nothing. Somehow this isn't looting though? Im not saying go out and do it, but what would you do if you tried to protest and see how nothing is done, and your community is suffering..

As controversial as this may seem much more damage is done by the looters of the treasury, and it isn't even a fair comparison. Structural racism is the tip of the iceberg. America is about to realize further that freedom isn't the lies we are told. America is waking up from its dream state to the reality that has been created by those who wish to tell us what we can and cannot have.

I love you all and I think there is a lot of light on the other side of this. I wish you all safety and happiness in this rough time.
