What do you make of all the craziness out there?
Aside from coronavirus, a video surfaced onto the internet of an African man, George Floyd. He died due to police brutality. The way the cops handled the arrest was inhumane. Floyd was not resisting arrest and kept repeating the fact that he couldn't breathe from being kneed right on his neck, face being smudged onto the sidewalk. Watching the eight minute long video was heart wrenching. Those standing around were yelling at the officers to check for a pulse after Floyd was unresponsive for a few minutes. Although the officers didn't do anything till paramedics came. There was a protest for Floyd, but protestors faced tear-gas thrown by the police task force. It's absolutely devastating that such events dedicated to fight for justice and equality are treated with violence. These unarmed protestors and late George Floyd did not deserve to receive such treatment from the police enforcement.
