I dont have a list with my favorit americans, but if I would have one he would be for sure in my Top 10.

Its just amazing how much he has done against extremism without being an extremist himself.

Really respect that guy.

This is one of the links I actually clicked to read. That's pretty cool! Never even knew this guy existed till now. Never nothing I know our school had us watch Last of the Mohicans but I never heard about this guy.

It's always cool to hear about someone out there reaching across the fence to shake a hand. Makes me glad for a bit and think "I'll do something cool some day!"

Unfortunately, Antifa threathened to bomb a theater where he was planning on speaking with others last year.

Strangely enough, there are extremists who don't want regular people to speak with other extremists...

Wikipedia is a great resource, I'm glad that we can count on them for unbiased statements of fact:

George Perry Floyd Jr. (October 14, 1973 – May 25, 2020) was an African-American man who was murdered by a police officer in Minneapolis, Minnesota, during an arrest made after a store clerk suspected Floyd may have used a counterfeit twenty-dollar bill, on May 25, 2020.[3] Derek Chauvin, one of the four police officers who arrived on the scene, knelt on Floyd's neck and back for 9 minutes and 29 seconds which caused a lack of oxygen.[4] After his murder, protests against police brutality, especially towards black people, quickly spread across the United States and globally. His dying words, "I can't breathe," became a rallying slogan. "

Cause of death: Cardiopulmonary arrest due to neck compression



Derek Chauvin, one of the four police officers who arrived on the scene, knelt on Floyd's neck and back for 9 minutes and 29 seconds which caused a lack of oxygen.

So, cardiopulmonary arrest means chauvin *meant* to kill him in that moment? Murder has an actual definition. So does manslaughter, and criminal negligence. So does fentanyl. So does "he was saying he couldnt breath before cops even touched him". Wikipedia apparently decided to just go with the top shelf words though.

Also, you don't gradually and slowly pass out if somebody restricts bloodflow to your brain. Ya know what does cause that though? Eating an unmeasured amount of a potent opioid right before the cops get there.

It's an Eric Garner quote, not evidence of drug use.

It's a slogan (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I_can%27t_breathe) invoking prior brutality, not a statement of overdose symptoms. It seemed like you were trying to say it was the second.

I thought this as well, until I recently heard where two members of medical staff, I forget which title, who are facing MURDER charges for not placing a patient on his back or something, but instead on his stomach where the patient suffocated

Not manslaughter, but murder. Meaning they didn’t make a mistake, but somehow both decided, without any prior communication, “hey let’s just kill this fucking guy”…at least according to the court. I couldn’t believe it, but it made me at least understand how Chauvin got the same thing

I mean honestly it should have been a mistrial. It was a total miscarriage of justice in both directions; derek chauvin shouldn't be serving time for murder. It was purely a prejudicial court of public opinion that actually rendered that verdict. And also, black americans shouldn't be led to believe that the incident represents some kind of pattern they can expect to live under. That is a total lie, and basically guarantees these kind of things will just happen again and again on a moronic endless loop.
