What did Emmett Till do other than get his ass dragged down a road behind a truck? He didn't even have a job and liked to skip church.

The good thing is that this is America. We just need to wait a few more days and I'm sure the police will shoot a black man dead who was a little better community pillar than George Floyd.

No one should touch it or vandalize it. Ill be clear on that.


But, what did Floyd do to earn a statue besides get killed by a racist cop? He wasnt exactly a pillar of the community or a great role model as far as Ive read.


And Certainly wasnt a part of the Brooklyn community.
because someone thought it was worthwhile?

why do you care? or, why do you have a problem with it?
Its odd. Thats all.
i don’t think it’s odd at all

statues have been erected for much less worthwhile reasons, imo

Many view Floyd as a certain watershed moment, when the world saw in real time the brutality black folks have endured from cops.

Perhaps instead erect a statue of the teenage girl and her camera phone

After all, it was only a murder.
Couple weeks paid leave, a little desk duty, back on the beat by August?
With 2 sets of cuffs.

How would Chauvin in prison even work? I mean, all I know of prison is from movies and TV... But still, other prisoners are going to know who he is. I would imagine he's going to get the living shit beaten out of him.

Pretty sure he’s in some sorta protective custody or something precisely cuz of that?

He would be transferred to Protective Custody directly from intake.
PC is basically exactly the same as Solitary.

He could petition to remain in PC for a while, but he eventually will be dumped into General Population. He would find himself protected by Aryans...hated by blacks.

As profiled as he is, he actually would be pretty safe. If someone of color found themselves with a clear opportunity, he will get stuck. Most likely by a guy trying to jump in, earn a spur.

While we all dream of 24 hour sodomy for the fucker....it just isn't realistic.

How often is this afforded to prisoners?

What are the typical circumstances?

If a black dude killed a cop, would the prison system protect him from the aryans?

My god you'll try to argue with some of us about ANYTHING.

Pretty sure this is where you usually ask people for specific examples. So which statues specifically have been erected for much less worthwhile reasons?

Don't know, but they should.

Just think this country has a weird relationship/view with prison system.
