Michael, be sure to give props to the teenage girl. That made all this possible, because of her video, the world knows the truth. She needs prayer, protection, and financial assistance. Somebody needs to applaud her courage. Thank you.
Yes, I hope somebody gives her a scholarship for college. She's just 17 years old. She taped one of the most profound, real and symbolic happenings ever recorded. She's special, God orchestrated her steps that day to be there at that particular time in history. She was steady and courageous! And too, I hope that George's little girl who wants to one day go into the medical field finds perhaps a cure for cancer. I am saying all this to say that God can make all things work together for the good of all humanity.
It will when the creator of the universe comes to judge that is what it's going to take but they have no chance if he decides to come today hell they will try to kill him that is how evil they are not all but it's still too many they are just like it were written of them their pride has decived them and that is what's going to bring them down the creator says that their pride goes before. Their fall and a hunted spirit so they are taking their own self down you can't rule the world it's not theirs and they need to realize it before they're not going to be able to rule the world it's all ready has a owner and by no means will they remain here with that way of thinking it's no way to do that unless you kill the creator and I hope they know what they are doing because it is written of what to be in the last day of this world he will come and judge and what will be done unto the wicked he will stay them all there will be peace on the Earth after he gets rid of the wicked and that is the reason for his coming to set justice in the Earth as it were in the beginning before modern man
As a black man I just want to thank you for sharing what every good & decent black men are Really feeling ,right now. And yes I for one will hold on to hope as well. May God truly bless ,even more Bro. Mike!
@Child Of The Sun SO IN THE 1960s BLACK AMERICANS FOUGHT AGAINST SEPARATION FROM WHITE PEOPLE, BUT NOW YOU ARE SAYING THAT YOU WANT SEPARATION FROM WHITE PEOPLE? THAT WOULD MEAN THAT YOU WOULD ONLY RECEIVE GOVERNMENT SERVICES FROM THE TAXES OF BLACK PEOPLE; SCHOOLS, FIRED DEPARTMENTS, WELFARE, ROADS, MILITARY, POLICING, ALL WOULD BE FUNDED ONLY FROM THE TAXES OF BLACK PEOPLE FOR YOU IF YOU WANT SEPARATION FROM WHITE PEOPLE, NO TAXES OF WHITE PEOPLE WOULD BE USED FOR ANY OF THE SERVICES YOU USE ON A DAILY BASIS. IS THAT REALLY WHAT YOU WANT? ABOUT 1 BILLION BLACK AFRICANS IN AFRICA WOULD DESPERATELY LIKE TO COME TO AMERICA FOR A CHANCE AT A BETTER LIFE AND THEY ARE SHAKING THEIR HEADS AT THE 'PROTESTS' AGAINST AMERICA TAKING PLACE HERE NOW BY BLACK AMERICANS. GEORGE FLOYD KILLED HIMSELF AND CAUSED HIS BEAUTIFUL YOUNG DAUGHTER TO GROW UP WITHOUT A FATHER. HE ALSO HAD FOUR OTHER CHILDREN. THE AUTOPSY SHOWED THAT GEORGE FLOYD WAS STONED ON METH AND OPIOIDS, AND THAT HE ALSO HAD THE CORONA VIRUS, ALL OF WHICH MAKES BREATHING DIFFICULT EVEN WHEN YOU'RE NOT RESISTING ARREST FOR TRYING TO STEAL CIGARETTES. GEORGE FLOYD SPENT FIVE YEARS IN PRISON FOR BREAKING INTO A PREGNANT WOMAN'S HOUSE, PISTOL WHIPPING HER, AND ROBBING HER AT GUN POINT. HE HAD NUMEROUS OTHER ARRESTS FOR DRUGS AND THEFT AND HAD A LONG HISTORY OF CRIMINAL ACTIVITY. AND HE IS THE EMBLEM THE BLACK LIVES MOVEMENT ARE USING TO REPRESENT THEM??? THEIR CREDIBILITY IS GONE BECAUSE OF IT. THE POLICE WHO TRIED THEIR BEST TO DO THEIR JOBS, PROTECT SOCIETY, AND ARREST THE VIOLENT CRIMINAL GEORGE FLOYD WITHOUT ANY RACIAL BIAS WHATSOEVER ARE MARTYRS TO RACISM AGAINST WHITE PEOPLE AND THEY WILL WALK FREE AGAIN VERY SOON. THE RACIST RIOTERS WHO ARE BURNING OUR CITIES, CAUSING HAVOC THROUGH THEIR 'PROTESTS,' AND SHOOTING INNOCENT PEOPLE IN THE STREETS JUST KILLED A BLACK POLICE OFFICER TWO DAYS AGO IN SAINT LOUIS NAMED DAVID DORN. IF THIS CONTINUES WE WILL RESTORE ORDER TO OUR NATION THROUGH OUR MILITARY. A TRAGEDY IF IT COMES TO THAT, BUT OUR GREAT NATION WILL NOT BE DESTROYED FROM WITHIN.
Before we go off the deep end, a House divided cannot stand let's take a minute and focus on the mixed races that have to sleep and live under 2 different languages ,..do we speak our native language or English at home?do we walk or do we drive,these are rights that have been jeopardized, think about families that have no say,because of the great divide, We are a Priesthood belonging to the most Powerful Force this planet has ever seen We are universal beings ,We are in this world but we are not of it and Satan's army knows it ?We are getting prepared for the cup of the fury of God, Vengeance is the Lord's,once our prayers go up to the altar and it overflows the the wrath of God will begin.Fear God my people not the world He has overcome the world and so will we brother's and sisters.
@@drServitis The majority of rioters are criminals that are taking advantage of the protests. If the protests weren't going on, they would be looting somewhere else. Since your talking about Mr. Floyd holding a gun to a pregnant woman, YEARS AGO, he paid the price. He WAS turning his life around. SO...what about the cop who shot pepper bullets into a car with a pregnant woman, AFTER HE WAS TOLD, there was a pregnant woman in the car. And you show your absolute IGNORANCE if you believe what you spew.
I totally understand what our black males go through. As strange as it may sound, I am a woman of color and was pulled over by the police while wearing a hoodie on a cold winter night and driving to the store with my daughter to pick something up to finish my cooking. White cop saw that I had on a hoodie while driving behind me, turned on his siren, had no reason to pull me over, I drove into a 7-Eleven parking lot, he gets out of his vehicle, walked up to the window, saw my black face and his white face nearly fell to the ground. He gets back in his car so quickly and drove away that I was not able to get the license plate to file a complaint. I am 100% convinced that black men are targets. Did I say it? I sure did.
I am white, female, born in1971. Up until the last few years, I thought we were beyond this. How nieve I have been. That's terrible that certain people of a white race think they have authority to act on suspicions and not waite for facts. It is terrible that people with authority and power that they stand on an unarmed cuffed man and arrogantly feel I don't need to let this man breath, I'm in control. You can't make me stop, I am in power. That is what I see with anger and frustration as I watch that video. I yell STOP!!! Knowing it's too late. Please America..... Please... Stop.
i want you to do the Harlem Challenge, Go through my old neighbor hood at 1 a.m. and have a black friend go at 1:30 and then report how you were treated compared to how she was treated. with the only difference being your skin color....Go ask any white boy that grew up in the hood if they feel they been treated differnt cause there skin color, Humans are humans the have capacity for good and evil. it was wrong for whites to make assumptions on blacks as a whole based on bad choices of a few, just like today its wrong to make assumptions on police as a whole based on actions of a few.
Thanks for acknowledging, that we are all human beings. With a heart and soul that only out creator can truly judge. Psalm 100 verse 3 says. Know he that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
Thank you Michael, I'm a white man that has much respect for the man you are, not a sports fan but just because you represent what I respect in any man . I can't say you've not made mistakes in life, I have but I try every day to be better do better and show that I can grow as a human being. These things I see in many men of every race and belief . I aspire to be more like and learn from their example. I know there are more good men and women who just need a good example. My heart aches that there are so few of them in our nation's most powerful leadership positions. Thank you for your words but more importantly thank you for the example of a man being strong of mind, morality and body while showing kindness and acceptance of others is not a weakness.
Xman• respectfully it's not mine to make that point I believe that's already proven an undeniable fact, many times over. I wanted to bring attention to the use of a strong man of any race showing a positive and unifying message from a position of respect from men of all races and beliefs. I believe taking the knee, was another one of the most powerful effective statements ever made in the same manner. A statement still ringing around the planet. I'm not Muslim, Jewish, Hindu... But when my brother feels need to stop and pray for his faith, I can gladly bow my head, kneel in respect or simply sit in silence. Not because I have to believe as he does but, as my brother I respect his right to do so. By example, I've given him the tools to respect mine without needing to defend his. When men and women in a position of leadership spit poison and disrespect while trying to dominate others into agreement there is no growth. I just pointed out the difference in leading and holding a position.
@@butchbrunson2486 With all due respect pontificating about powerful messages and how Michael is a good guy betrays Michael by ignoring what he is standing for. Whether we all come together or not there needs to be an end to police brutality and racial inequities. We can't wait for pie in the sky solutions. Respectfully, it sounds like you're dodging the issue.
Joe Ann• Thank you for the information. I'm familiar with some and will be looking at the rest. I don't claim to have all the answers but, it seems simple enough that the color of skin should never be a basis for dividing. It is no measure of the morality that dwells inside. If we're led by men and women who are so lacking in character that they see past the color of skin, we're following fools and led to foolishness. I see to many people in positions of power that look at the pictures and want to teach the class. Anyone that knows so much as they are beyond learning from others is a fool who's beyond learning. If we can get past defending what's obviously wrong in our leaders because they prove to be not who we thought we can open the door for leadership that can prove worthy and learn to celebrate the value of everyone. When the message of a policy maker begins with , we and they, it's not good policy. (Reddit) Serena and Alexis 👏 awesome example!
Mike I feel your pain I watch my husband and sons and I’ve had the conversation to not show anger to not be that “scary black guy” when someone wrongs you, with my sons over and over again. My daughters get the talk too because gender doesn’t protect them from a bullet or a bash to the head either. Just typing that statement sent chills down my body. You see when you give birth to your children they are beautiful and you want the world to see them as you do. As a black parent it is hard to say that my black children are not as valuable to the world as white children. I am glad to be who God made me to be but those people who choose to cancel out God’s work make me sad, tired, and furious. My husband and I are retired military and we served our country proudly. Under my watch your babies became my babies and I planned on sacrificing myself for them. Why didn’t it happen in reverse? But I know that looking at us they don’t see that first, it will always be skin first. I’m not mad about that because again this is God at work. But valuing one skin color over the other is Man’s problem
1700's: we shouldn't have to keep having these conversations. We are all God's creation. 1800: we shouldn't have to keep having these conversations. We are all God's creation. 1900: 1700's: we shouldn't have to keep having these conversations. We are all God's creation. 2000: we shouldn't have to keep having these conversations. We are all God's creation. 2020: 1700's: we shouldn't have to keep having these conversations. We are all God's creation. Loop repeat. 4025: we shouldn't have to keep having these conversations. We are all God's creation. Insanity Is Doing the Same Thing Over and Over Again and Expecting Different Results
Actually Jesus was Crucified for having these conversations by a mob that didn’t like it. In a Roman Government. Jewish Church leaders hated that Jesus Spoke the Truth about Gods Love instead of conforming to the daily rituals that the “church” had pushed forward while pushing Love downward. So those so called “Bible believers” avoiding these conversations really got to look in the mirror about what they believe in. The apostles wrote letters to the churches having conversations about everything from too many factions occuring, to pride, to sexual immorality, to ego...so many conversations. The ones mindlessly saying what your quoting over the timelines are probably under the same influence that mindlessly creates follows of the Marxist group known as Blm.
Empathy, yes! If you’re in pain I feel your pain, if they abuse you, I get angered! It’s not fair! This shouldn’t happen! Not here not anywhere! I share the mix of pain and anger towards this continuous injustice to my brothers and sisters I pray this stops and soon
@@blaynecarver2236 Well, I can only speak for myself, I choose to judge people based on content of their character rather than judge them based on the color of their skin. That being said, there are good and bad people in all races.
“We need leaders not in love with money, but in love with justice. Not in love with publicity, but in love with humanity.” - The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King. 🌎☮️💟🕊 Rest in paradise, George Floyd🕯🌹
Please do not compare Flour to Martin Luther king Jr Dr King was a good man of God with principles if we had more like him maybe we would not be here he had a dream but the Anfifa Democrats destroyed that beautiful dream of Dr King
@@maggier5882 First of all, his name was George Floyd and you need to deal with the issue. The issue is that racism is alive and well in this country. Stop trying to change the narrative. You are so uncomfortable dealing with racism that you have to divert the conversation. I am sure that you did not mean to sound like you think that George Floyd deserved what happened to him. Try to listen to yourself, " ...if we had more like him maybe we would not be here ..." Are you kidding me?!?!?!?! Who is the "we" to which you refer? I think what you meant to say is that "if white America had all clean-cut educated black men who approached life like Dr. King, America would be perfect." I guess you would think that because they killed Dr. King also. Well, white American men created the system in which George Floyd grew up, which created the man who put his knee on his neck, and which helped develop your inability to face the injustices set in stone by a system that has oppressed African Americans since we arrived on slave ships. George Floyd was a human being who had made mistakes in his life (I am sure you never did make mistakes or at least you did not get caught because white covers a multitude of sins, right?), paid for those mistakes, and was living his best life at the time he was killed. Furthermore, Antifa did not factor into this until #45 mentioned Antifa. Again, diverting your attention from the real issue which is racism, you chose to ignore the true issue! Read and learn, then post!
Dr. Martin Luther King last speech was apologizing for leading his people into a Burning furnace he took everything back!!! His fight wouldn’t be the same
@@KennedyKitten l usually just ignore ppl like her....some ppl are just too stupid to waste time on. George has touched almost the whole world! Her stupidity cant change that!
Yankeeladee ,I agree but ppl cant afford to waste time on them..the people need to be the leaders and be the example needed to stop the insanity! The so called leaders dont own us!! Its our Country!!
Hey Michel, I'm a Latina women & feeling ur pain, I spoke 2 a old childhood friend, we compared notes & realized Our brothers both died from the same thing, tumors in there head from being Beaten to a pulp by the Bell PD, for no good reason. Every time I see the video, I can't bare to watch. I to Hope for change it's way over due. I Pray a Mass everyday & hope I'll be living to see change of a friendly officer. Many officers have issues, they grab them right out of the Service & they need reprogrammed. Amen
Now, they are saying he was just out of jail he spent 5 years, they will make that an issue as well. Its hsrd to indict a police. 1st degree murder it was premeditated.
Yeah I just had to come back and say that your voice to this crisis makes me cry. You said it soooooo gracious but also POWERFUL! EXCELLENT! EXCELLENT!EVERY WORD ON POINT!BLESSINGS
As a mother of three black children(a daughter and two sons), I feel the same way. OMG...it really starts when they get their driver's license...nothing but stress! Being a college student does not even help. I am sick of it!
Frank Ross you should be scared yes but more on black on black have you seen how many innocent civilians victims died in the violence will the get justice in honor of George Floyd? No I don't think so don't get me wrong they need justice on but. The terrorist !on did them in in honor of Floyd so rest my black case two wrong do not make it right that sheriff the black cop got shot in his head he had a family too the 23 yrs young woman left her baby sister crying no justice but the world is killing and terrorizing communities in Floyd's name sickening
@Da Gr8one GEORGE FLOYD HAS BECOME THE SYMBOL FOR THE BLACK LIVES MATTER MOVEMENT? THAT REMOVES ALL CREDIBILITY FROM THE MOVEMENT. THERE WAS ZERO RACISM INVOLVED IN GEORGE FLOYD's DEATH. GEORGE FLOYD LEAD A LIFE OF CRIME. HE SPENT FIVE YEARS IN PRISON FOR BREAKING INTO A PREGNANT WOMAN'S HOUSE, BEATING HER WITH HIS PISTOL, AND ROBBING HER AT GUNPOINT. HE HAD MANY OTHER THEFT AND DRUG OFFENSES ON HIS RAP SHEET AS WELL. AND BY CHOOSING CRIME HE LEFT A BEAUTIFUL YOUNG DAUGHTER TO GROW UP WITHOUT A FATHER, AS WELL AS FOUR OTHER CHILDREN GEORGE FLOYD WAS STONED ON METH AND OPIOIDS WHEN HE TRIED TO STEAL CIGARETTES AND RESISTED ARREST, AND THE POLICE FOLLOWED THE BOOK ON SUBDUING AN AGGRESSIVE RESISTING DRUG CRAZED CRIMINAL. THERE WAS NO WAY THEY COULD KNOW HE HAD THE CORONA VIRUS, NOR SHOULD THAT EVEN BE AN ISSUE. IT IS A HUGE MISCARRIAGE OF JUSTICE AND RACISM THAT THE POLICE ARE BEING CHARGED FOR DOING THEIR JOB TO KEEP SOCIETY FREE OF HARD CORE CRIMINALS CAUGHT IN THE ACT OF COMMITTING CRIME. GEORGE FLOYD BROUGHT HIS DEATH ON HIMSELF. THAT RACISTS ARE MAKING HIS DEATH AN ISSUE OF RACE IS THE ONLY RACISM HERE. THESE RACISTS ARE GOING TO BECOME EVEN MORE AGGRESSIVE AND VIOLENT IN THE FUTURE, A BLACK POLICE OFFICER WAS KILLED BY THEM IN SAINT LOUIS THREE DAYS AGO, AMONG OTHER POLICE OFFICERS SHOT AND INNOCENT PEOPLE KILLED. WE WILL END THIS BY USING THE MILITARY, TRAGICALLY. IT WILL COME TO THAT IN THE FUTURE, AND YOU KNOW IT. WE WILL NOT HAVE A NATION WITHOUT LAWS AND SECURITY GUARANTEEING THE RIGHTS OF OUR CITIZENS, BLACK AND WHITE. THE MILITARY WILL EVENTUALLY HAVE TO STOP THIS CHAOS AND MURDER IN OUR STREETS.
@@5tubbs814 YOUR ROLE MODEL AND HERO GEORGE FLOYD WAS IN PRISON NINE DIFFERENT TIME IN HIS LIFE, ONE OF THEM FOR BEATING A PREGNANT WOMAN WITH HIS GUN AS HE ROBBED HER IN HER HOME. HIS AUTOPSY SHOWED HE WAS STONED ON METH AND OPIOIDS WHEN HE USED FAKE $20s TO TRY TO STEAL CIGARETTES AND THE POLICE HAD TO SUBDUE A VIOLENT AGGRESSIVE LIFE TIME CRIMINAL BY PROCEDURE AND WITH FORCE AS HE RESISTED ARREST. BEING HANDCUFFED DEFINITELY DOES NOT MEAN HE WAS COOPERATING, AND HIS LIFE OF VIOLENCE PROVES THAT. IT SAYS ALOT ABOUT YOU THAT YOU CHOOSE A FELON AND HARD CORE CRIMINAL LIKE GEORGE FLOYD TO LEAD YOU. CAN'T YOU PERSONALLY DO ANY BETTER THAN HIM???
"....I'm ANGRY, but as a Black Man I can't show too much anger because then they are afraid of me?..." My father (RIP Pops) said the same thing to us when we were little. I am rocking 50+ and remember his 6'2/220 + frame demanding attention whenever he walked into a room. We all noticed it, so he would sometimes explain all the "oooh and aaah" ~ HA! They still are not used to the presence of a KING!?!
GEORGE FLOYD HELD A GUN TO A PREGNANT WOMAN'S BELLY WHILE HIS THUG FRIENDS ROBBED HER. DON'T TRY TO BUY CIGARETTES WITH FAKE $20s WHILE STONED ON METH AND OPIOIDS AND THEN RESIST ARREST WHILE YOU'VE GOT THE CORONA VIRUS MAKING BREATHING DIFFICULT AND YOU SHOULD BE ALRIGHT.
@@gregsmith7809 There are many racial incidents who don't make the news. His friend was lynched and your first reaction is to automatically assume that it's a lie, therefore asking him for proof. You're pathetic! Complete lack of compassion 😗
No matter what George Floyd did, whatever his lifestyle he did not deserve to be MURDERED by the officer. The officer's life was not threatened; however, he took 8 mins and 46 secs to extinguish Floyd's life. We've heard the discussions, saw the funeral, experienced public outcry; however, the change is made by putting pen to paper, change the laws. If not, all we would have done is have a pity party. The world is watching. RIP George Floyd.
This is so true THE PEOPLE need to set the standards of these PUBLIC SERVANTS they need to be a high standard for all public SERVANTS medical evaluations mentally and physically and call's should be represented by the same ethnic back round per racial per district where there is no BIAS call's female officers are called for women the same race should be called so feedback will be with equal Representatives within our POLICE OFFICERS racial balance within our POLICE FORCE
Not true. There is man's judgement and then there is God's judgement. He deserved death. It doesn't matter how God serves it. HIS LAW CLEARLY STATES DO NOT DATE OUTSIDERS. HIS LAW CLEARLY STATES MARRY THE WOMEN YOU SLEEP WITH. HIS LAW SAID DO NOT MAKE A COVENANT WITH THE HEATHENS. HIS LAW SAYS DO NOT BE PERVERSE AND INVOLVE YOUR SELF IN LEWDNESS ( PORN ) HIS LAW SAY RAISE YOUR CHILDREN. HIS LAW SAYS TURN AWSY FROM WICKEDNESS SO THAT YOU DON'T DIE IN YOUR SINS. HE DIDN'T. SO HE DIED IN HIS SINS. Either learn from his death are meet the same fate. .
@@biblethumper8088 "Thou shall not kill". That's clear. And regarding perverse behavior, sleeping outside your race and the other dos and don'ts in your comment, WS are guilty! The evidence of their sins are all around us.
@@50Nzinga who was the law given to? The Israelites only. Amos 3:2 You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities. So wp can sleep with whoever they want to. Did God ever condemn Esau, the hitites, the Egyptians anyone else for sleeping with outsiders? No. Thou shall not kill is a commandment for Israelites to not kill Israelites. He gives us permission to kill outsiders. And George wasn't killed by his own people so his blood isn't on our hands. Period.
Michael we need to stop putting bad, evil, twisted people in positions of power. If they getting a pass from us, we/they need 2b held accountable and dealt with swiftly & justly.
@Linda I agree with your rebuttal. Elected officials need 2b held accountable. The people at the top need to swiftly dismiss lower esholon individuals who are blatantly corrupt. Racism is learned, it can be unlearned.
Good to see Michael take time to express himself woke. We "need" our prominent and of course, less nationally prominent, all Black Men to stand with us Intelligent, health - conscious, beautiful, woke Black women and children. Newness; Black to the basics.
Your dont no me heart Gods no me I never be jealous and hate I will never be dat people I I never want to see people dead was angry I kan control but I duo bad I no is every bad me talk to me people I will never forget bad I talk with me brother and sister so wat is your roommate with dat
@Frances Wilson You hit the nail on the head. What you have described is a tangled web that black people have found themselves constantly caught up in, without any escape. There is no exit, because it's a game. And the sad part of it all is that if you play the game, you might be allowed to live a decent, second-class-citizen life. That is your reward. But if you don't play the game, if you avoid the tangled web, you are going to have an extremely rough time in America.

Michael I am sorry that this is still going on. It’s so sad. There are people who are protesting the right way, and there are protesters that have to ask people to please protest without hurting innocent people’s businesses and physically hurting innocent people. I feel for them. I hate it when people die like this and it never gets better. I am praying for all of the people who are grieving and hurting because of this. You have a right to be angry and scared. All we can do is pray and the people that can make a difference should try very hard to do so. Someone like me can only pray and love everyone around me. I will do that because that’s all I can do. God Bless everyone and stay safe from the virus. Please everyone if you are out in the streets together wear your masks to protect one another. 😭💜😭💜

Thank you Michael for your words of wisdom. I'm an old lady and I'm so sorry that we keep having this same conversation ever since I was young. I pray there would be a change.
CHOSEN ONE AMERUKAN INDIAN. People please stopped with this God have this. God,Creator or whatever it is up there in the Galaxy have been watching this Hellish Bloody Killings for Centuries! God kills too😮 babies,toddlers,teenagers and adults in the water. Remember the Flood allegedly in Noah Days. Or,how about God kills again this time sending His Minion Moses to do the Killings in Numbers Chapter 31 KJV. People wake up for once from this God have this🤦🏾♀️
Because they don't go through these things like we do on a daily basis, they chock it up as exaggerating on our part. The truth is coming out more and more.
It saddens me to see such heartless, senseless acts of violence and then to think about the parent or child that just lost their son, their dad! - really heart breaking. Absolutely, we need to continue to talk about it, move toward change and each person be the positive change we need to see. Thank you for posting this, we need to continue to talk about the injustices and look for the change.
God bless you Micheal for your heart felt feelings about all of this .May prayer for everyone that we all get through this with justice be done in Jesus Christ 🙏 name.
Thx for sharing Mike. You brought me to tears. Thx so much for standing up with a voice! Love you even though you played for New York… 🤣🙃😷🙏🏽❤️LOL be safe!
Thank you Michael for this very powerful message. Say it LOUDER for the folks in the back of the room that are clueless to the facts that have led us to this place🤨 Be Blessed, and Stay Safe. Thank You for your voice🙏🏾 Sincerely, Ms. J .......a proud Mother of a very successful Black Son and Black Daughter and 5 amazing Grandchildren. I pray daily (sometimes hourly) for all of their safety and well-being.
Hi again as I said before I am White let me tell you a little story I was at the store one day and there was a black lady behind me I had a lot of items where is she only had three items so I let her go ahead of me and she was very thankful I could have not done that but I did out of respect what make her wait so long when I had too much you either go the right way or you going the wrong way God gave us 🙏 a brain love to all
I'm a white 69 yr old female. I remember the Watts riots. I remember Rodney King beating and his plea "Can't we all just get along?" Yes it's sad, maddening, frustrating that we need to have this conversation over and over. Thank you for this video. ❤
No miss Debbie, thank YOU for not looking at a whole race of people negatively after living through so many riots and civil unrest. Thank you for taking the time to understand and analyze the socioeconomics behind such unrest and the origins of it. Not excusing it at all... but sincerest thanks to you.
Not sure if i seeing things wrong but it seems out of all races that african american, sorry try use right wording so not just saying black as as everyone seems to do. but they seem have the hardest time in life since years past. even thought other races have had their problems or hassles, why it seem african americans have had it the longest? i have fam and friends of all races so i get along with all. they human just like me, but dont hate the race. be mad at the person and not the whole race . hope this all makes sense.
Don't worry about Drew Brees, they already got a 3rd string 350 lb muscled up middle linebacker on the fringe of being released, who already has the bounty money in the bank for old Drew. BOOM. 15 yard penalty, ejected from the game, $25,000 fine which will be paid by the NFLPA and Drew, when he wakes up in the ICU will be out of football, forever. Won't even get a broadcasting job because for some strange reason he thinks his name DUH. Just kidding :-)
I am terrified for my son constantly. Like you, I am hoping/praying change is coming. My heart aches each time I hear another young man or lady has been killed, God bless the parents. It's my most fervent prayer that I never have to feel that unimaginable pain.

YES, TRAGIC THAT GEORGE FLOYD's LIFE OF CRIME HAS LEFT HIS YOUNG DAUGHTER FATHERLESS. GEORGE FLOYD HELD A GUN TO A PREGNANT WOMAN'S BELLY WHILE HIS THUG FRIENDS ROBBED HER. DON'T TRY TO BUY CIGARETTES WITH FAKE $20s WHILE STONED ON METH AND OPIOIDS AND THEN RESIST ARREST WHILE YOU'VE GOT THE CORONA VIRUS MAKING BREATHING DIFFICULT AND YOU SHOULD BE ALRIGHT.
A year ago, I purchased a home in a beautiful 55 and over retirement community in Dover, DE. My daughter and grandson came to visit me recently. We went on the walking trail for my grandson to ride his bike and fish. After becoming exhausted, I went to sit in my car but could see my family from afar. Some random white couple began interrogating my daughter asking if she was a resident or guest. That was not ok and reeks of white privilege. I am a black woman and could not contain my emotions. I made it clear for them never to approach my family in that manner again!!
As I went to hit "like" I thought what a feeble response to such a powerful statement. This needs to be shown on TV, in schools,in every forum possible. Thank you for making this video.
Absolutely, it couldn’t be because people actually have these experiences in their life. Some of us don’t actually need to see these things on TV to know they’re happening.
Well done Michael …I felt ur passion because I’m feeling exactly the same along with so many others… our time is definitely now we all have to be active participants in the best way possible …stepping out in hope and faith for the betterment of it all … it will happen🤗🙏🏾
It's hard to imagine the life of a person of color when you haven't lived it. There are those who sympathize Yes. There are those who say if you comply with the police nothing will happen to you. If you're not guilty why resist nothing will happen to you. But when you are a person of color you wonder everyday when you wake up if this is the day. Try living like that and maybe you'll understand.. I am hoping this incident of George Floyd and all the other victims will bring about change for all of us
Sabina Francis there will never be that change this is evil and good darkness and light God and Satan good people do not run out there burning beating breaking looting killing and burning down the country we stay ho!e the ones paying is the hard working victims of these evil terrorists look around the wreckage they left behind?
@@maggier5882 I'm sorry you feel that way you are looking at the people who never intended to peacefully protest they were out to destroy. That is not the whole movement that transpired across the world 🌎 Significant change may not come in my lifetime. But the young people are speaking out and the Next Generation they'll be more on the front lines to stand up to wrong Injustice
U c what RACIST QUEEN & RF is doing to one of their own (Prince Harry) because he loves Meghan. There's a sickness w/n the RF. How many Black counties r supporting the RF? Between Carole & Cheating Willie they ruined bag-a-bones Kate even though he used her for sex for years.
The sad thing is we cannot change someone else’s heart. We need to be on our knees before God asking Him to make the change within the hearts of those who are racist, those who are scared, and those who are ignorant to the equality of Gods creation of various shades of brown, and Gods love for us all.
No, the sad thing here is that we cannot read a person's heart or mind in the way that most people are acting as though they can. The police officer was rogue,..he broke protocol and basically murdered George Floyd. The officer did this. Not the Nation. Police forces are not National or Federal. They are State, then County, then City. We already have a law against murder and it should obviously remain in place as a huge deterrent. But it is a law,..a law that is sadly broken with regularity. Why is this murderous officer's motive considered racial ? Based on what ? The officer is white and George was black ? When this happens between a black cop and and a black person or white cop and a white person NOTHING is said and the country isn't in turmoil. Ask yourself why that is. Isn't it completely possible and even likely for a white cop to do this to a black man for reasons that have absolutely nothing to do with race ? Of course it is !!! Yet here we are anyway. Smh. I understand why the media implies this because it is clearly obvious that the media haven't been in the journalism business in a long time and are clearly political activists. But WHY do soo many people treat the idea that we know the cop was a racist as being some foregone, absolute fact ? Treating this in this way seems very irresponsible to put it delicately. There have been at least 7 police officers killed as a direct result of protestors. You could make a much more definitive case that these officers were killed because of race. Because the entire reason behind all of this is based on the idea that George Floyd was Black and he was killed by a White police officer,..therefore the motive is factually racism and cannot possibly be anything else. What happened was tragic, terrible, unconscionable and wrong on every level. Just as any murder that isn't self defense is. I checked the records for the entire 2019 year across the entire nation in regard to Police shooting and killing unarmed Blacks and also whites.... There were exactly 10 cases where a Police officer shot and killed an unarmed Black person. 8 of the 10 were justified in a court of law with predominantly black jurors..The other 2 officers were convicted of murder. So that is 2. There were 37 unarmed whites killed by police officers in 2019. All cases were justified but one...That officer was convicted of murder. There were more black people struck by lightning in 2019 than the 2 wrongfully killed by police officers. I state this to disprove the false notion that this happens at a large level with frequency. Not to down play the murder of these 2. I am appalled by what this officer did. But I think there is a real problem in our nation with soo many people reading racism into every situation with absolutely no basis for it. What happened to George Floyd was murder by an idiot, rogue policeman. The reality is bad enough. He should and likely will be convicted of murder. Burning the Nation down isn't happening because of just murder. It's happening because of this baseless, fabricated idea that the motive was racism. The atrocity that happened to George Floyd and his family was and is sad. Turning this murder into a nationwide "racism" epidemic is making his murder worse.
Your entire message was irrelevant to my comment. I agree with you that this Incident was not an issue of racism. I am also annoyed how the news media portrays things... I do not stand with the protesters actions of hurting innocent people by destroying and stealing, putting people in harms way, blocking main highways, lighting buildings on fire and then refusing to allow first responders to assist the situation, throwing bricks through housing where children live. It’s just not right! But I also know that racism is still an issue as well, and many are living in fear because of it. My point was the protesters actions will not solve the issue. The only possibility of a racist heart being changed is by the love of God filling it. That was my point. Have a nice day
Mike good to hear you. The process is in motion. People need to lose the fear and transform the police state to a compassionate level headed policing. You are an inspiration. Thank you
Michael I feel so bad that you are hurting . I have never seen you so upset like you are now. I feel for you and your family and friends and everyone who is feeling so sad at this time. 💓
Fear no man. Replace your fear for your son's safety with speaking safety over your sons. I have a son and I rebuke ANY and ALL evil weapons formed against my child, and NONE shall prosper. Amen and so it shall be. I refuse to live in fear. Be well.
Who can choke someone or sit on their neck or chest, and who wouldn’t squirm for air? I have anxiety attacks and I am constantly moving while in that mode. I also have a 11 year old black boy who is overwhelmed by looking at the obvious murder on tv. but he must see. Now when he see police he has fear. This has devastated our children now they are reading about Trayvon martin asking reading about Tamir rice etc and he ask why are they doing this and nobody cares... it seems the judges the DA and lawyers have also failed us. My son is more terrified of cops over coronavirus. It’s a living hell.
How many dam cops does it take to contain one black man, unarmed and they have guns....I don't get it. What ever happen to Innocent until proven guilty or Due Process.
Just wanted to say police didn't kill Trayvon Martin. He was killed by a civilian. George Zimmerman was an insurance underwriter. Maybe you knew this and I'm sorry if you did. I came a lot of people who didnt know it wasnt a police officer who killed Trayvon. George Zimmerman is a plain old civilian that is 1/4 Peruvian and 1/4 black. His father is German and that's where he got his German name. Zimmerman identifies as Latino when filling out forms for jobs, voter registration, etc.
Hoping GMA focuses their stories on what laws are changing OR NOT in these states where these heinous crimes were perpetrated by those entrusted to uphold the law. I personally wouldn’t want them to be afforded any protections of law IF they so choose to step outside their sworn duties and perpetuate crimes against humanity. Think about what police officer’s heinous behavior in three states has unleashed on our entire country. And now, unidentifiable people who hold guns are gathered up to protect against looters. Don’t bother showing any video of 45-another one who took an oath and have abdicated ALL responsibility to citizens, no matter how many times he poses in front of a church. Doesn’t attend church, so of course he/his plasticon wife don’t know how to stand in a church.
Maria don't be stupid they are terrorist and murderers it their are so right they should give up those that shot and kill innocent civilians victims of their terrorist behaviors

😭😭😭 aaah Michael it's really a sad moment 😢 , too too sad , too traumatizing , there's no right word to describe the hurt and pain 💔 we are going through , but if we all keep on praying and do our part positively , by loving and respecting every human being , love our neighbors as ourselves , love each child as my own 😭😭😭 , every time I hear George's cry for his mamma 😭😭😭😭, as mother of one boy and two girls , my heart 💔💔, my belly bottom hurts all over again , it hurts so bad 😭😭, but some day a change will come , because one thing for sure God is still on the throne , He is going to fix it once and for all , we continue pray for healing and until then , love , peace , health and prosperity always 🙏🏼♥️♥️♥️
Michael, you I'm angry sad and scared too. I'll keep praying for change maybe one day everyone will be free to walk out the door and not fear for his or her life. I hope we live long enough to see it. Keep talking to your kids.
Grammatically there is conversation going on we just need to start advancing how to enforce change responsible. So least start by changing the sub text. I have watched the same media video about the same unjustified a million times. Shine a light 💡 million times on the positive justice. Conversation are going on you the media just have to repeat them a million times.
I live in a very diverse city. I walk with my neighbors everyone is of a different race color whatever. We all talk we all have the same crap going on. But I’m just one person and I do feel defeated
Everyone saying that Michael Strahan is not a journalist he's on TV too much he's just a football player this video shows why he's on GMA everyday as an anchor because it's one thing to report on the story is another thing to give context emotion and connection to what's happening anybody can tell a story that's another thing to understand the story
My biggest sphere of influence is my family so I’m making an effort to be intentional in teaching my daughter all of America’s history, including the disgrace of slavery, segregation, racism, but also celebrating black men and women and their brilliant minds, hearts, and contributions to make our society better. Grounded on the foundation that God our Creator perfectly designed us all in different, creative ways but He gives us all equal value and love and desires for us to love each other this way too.
Are you going to teach her that in America today a white man is 10 times more likely to be killed by a black man than the reverse? Or that police kill twice as many whites as blacks? Or that of 7000 black men murdered each year that 95% are killed by another black person? Likely you won't. Teaching our kids to feel guilty for things they didn't do is moronic.
Thanks for explaining how you feel to us Michael. You and I do matter too. Some genYandZ youths need to utter some sense of reaction while we older type check each other’s feelings of to be governing genX to make sure we aren’t off mutual heart page. I myself feel the same way like our people must lead when government isn’t wisely and accountably fully. Govt and people ought to be One and it will as we patient voice our votes soundly together in this decade.
Yep, the media forgot that anybody can take pictures or video in real time. They stopped coming with that riot talk once videos started appearing of those they didn't suspect of looting.
Thank you Michael I'm a white man I'm seeing that also with my black neighbor up stairs from me in my apartment complex Robert. He has a son 9 and "the talk" is doing now in his life My neighbor is afraid to just go for a walk during the day. I'm am angry also. Nov 3rd is "D" for Trump I. E. Defeat Day ..

Michael, be sure to give props to the teenage girl. That made all this possible, because of her video, the world knows the truth. She needs prayer, protection, and financial assistance. Somebody needs to applaud her courage. Thank you.
Bless her heart! I cannot imagine what she's going through.
👏👏👏👏👏
Yes, I hope somebody gives her a scholarship for college. She's just 17 years old. She taped one of the most profound, real and symbolic happenings ever recorded. She's special, God orchestrated her steps that day to be there at that particular time in history. She was steady and courageous!
And too, I hope that George's little girl who wants to one day go into the medical field finds perhaps a cure for cancer. I am saying all this to say that God can make all things work together for the good of all humanity.
Which truth are you referring to?
She is the reason Floyd gets justice and the world sees the truth,she should be treated as a super world hero 🙏🙏🙏
Say it again Michael, we all are human beings! I pray this movement will make the necessary changes that are well overdue.
I second this motion!
This is NOT what will change humans!!
I pray you people understand that problem and only then can it be corrected
Since the beginning of time. Genesis. Till the end. Read a book.✌🙏🙏🙏🤔
It will when the creator of the universe comes to judge that is what it's going to take but they have no chance if he decides to come today hell they will try to kill him that is how evil they are not all but it's still too many they are just like it were written of them their pride has decived them and that is what's going to bring them down the creator says that their pride goes before. Their fall and a hunted spirit so they are taking their own self down you can't rule the world it's not theirs and they need to realize it before they're not going to be able to rule the world it's all ready has a owner and by no means will they remain here with that way of thinking it's no way to do that unless you kill the creator and I hope they know what they are doing because it is written of what to be in the last day of this world he will come and judge and what will be done unto the wicked he will stay them all there will be peace on the Earth after he gets rid of the wicked and that is the reason for his coming to set justice in the Earth as it were in the beginning before modern man
We need more voices like this who talk about peace instead of hate
God bless 🙏
As a black man I just want to thank you for sharing what every good & decent black men are Really feeling ,right now. And yes I for one will hold on to hope as well. May God truly bless ,even more Bro. Mike!
Thank you Michael. You are absolutely right. “When will it Stop!” It has to Stop!!
The country need love and respect.
THE MILITARY WILL PROBABLY HAVE TO PUT AN END TO THE RACIST RIOTING, TO ANSWER YOUR QUESTION. SO BE IT.
@Child Of The Sun SO IN THE 1960s BLACK AMERICANS FOUGHT AGAINST SEPARATION FROM WHITE PEOPLE, BUT NOW YOU ARE SAYING THAT YOU WANT SEPARATION FROM WHITE PEOPLE? THAT WOULD MEAN THAT YOU WOULD ONLY RECEIVE GOVERNMENT SERVICES FROM THE TAXES OF BLACK PEOPLE; SCHOOLS, FIRED DEPARTMENTS, WELFARE, ROADS, MILITARY, POLICING, ALL WOULD BE FUNDED ONLY FROM THE TAXES OF BLACK PEOPLE FOR YOU IF YOU WANT SEPARATION FROM WHITE PEOPLE, NO TAXES OF WHITE PEOPLE WOULD BE USED FOR ANY OF THE SERVICES YOU USE ON A DAILY BASIS. IS THAT REALLY WHAT YOU WANT?
ABOUT 1 BILLION BLACK AFRICANS IN AFRICA WOULD DESPERATELY LIKE TO COME TO AMERICA FOR A CHANCE AT A BETTER LIFE AND THEY ARE SHAKING THEIR HEADS AT THE 'PROTESTS' AGAINST AMERICA TAKING PLACE HERE NOW BY BLACK AMERICANS.
GEORGE FLOYD KILLED HIMSELF AND CAUSED HIS BEAUTIFUL YOUNG DAUGHTER TO GROW UP WITHOUT A FATHER. HE ALSO HAD FOUR OTHER CHILDREN. THE AUTOPSY SHOWED THAT GEORGE FLOYD WAS STONED ON METH AND OPIOIDS, AND THAT HE ALSO HAD THE CORONA VIRUS, ALL OF WHICH MAKES BREATHING DIFFICULT EVEN WHEN YOU'RE NOT RESISTING ARREST FOR TRYING TO STEAL CIGARETTES.
GEORGE FLOYD SPENT FIVE YEARS IN PRISON FOR BREAKING INTO A PREGNANT WOMAN'S HOUSE, PISTOL WHIPPING HER, AND ROBBING HER AT GUN POINT. HE HAD NUMEROUS OTHER ARRESTS FOR DRUGS AND THEFT AND HAD A LONG HISTORY OF CRIMINAL ACTIVITY. AND HE IS THE EMBLEM THE BLACK LIVES MOVEMENT ARE USING TO REPRESENT THEM??? THEIR CREDIBILITY IS GONE BECAUSE OF IT.
THE POLICE WHO TRIED THEIR BEST TO DO THEIR JOBS, PROTECT SOCIETY, AND ARREST THE VIOLENT CRIMINAL GEORGE FLOYD WITHOUT ANY RACIAL BIAS WHATSOEVER ARE MARTYRS TO RACISM AGAINST WHITE PEOPLE AND THEY WILL WALK FREE AGAIN VERY SOON.
THE RACIST RIOTERS WHO ARE BURNING OUR CITIES, CAUSING HAVOC THROUGH THEIR 'PROTESTS,' AND SHOOTING INNOCENT PEOPLE IN THE STREETS JUST KILLED A BLACK POLICE OFFICER TWO DAYS AGO IN SAINT LOUIS NAMED DAVID DORN. IF THIS CONTINUES WE WILL RESTORE ORDER TO OUR NATION THROUGH OUR MILITARY. A TRAGEDY IF IT COMES TO THAT, BUT OUR GREAT NATION WILL NOT BE DESTROYED FROM WITHIN.
Before we go off the deep end, a House divided cannot stand let's take a minute and focus on the mixed races that have to sleep and live under 2 different languages ,..do we speak our native language or English at home?do we walk or do we drive,these are rights that have been jeopardized, think about families that have no say,because of the great divide, We are a Priesthood belonging to the most Powerful Force this planet has ever seen We are universal beings ,We are in this world but we are not of it and Satan's army knows it ?We are getting prepared for the cup of the fury of God, Vengeance is the Lord's,once our prayers go up to the altar and it overflows the the wrath of God will begin.Fear God my people not the world He has overcome the world and so will we brother's and sisters.
@@drServitis The majority of rioters are criminals that are taking advantage of the protests. If the protests weren't going on, they would be looting somewhere else. Since your talking about Mr. Floyd holding a gun to a pregnant woman, YEARS AGO, he paid the price. He WAS turning his life around. SO...what about the cop who shot pepper bullets into a car with a pregnant woman, AFTER HE WAS TOLD, there was a pregnant woman in the car. And you show your absolute IGNORANCE if you believe what you spew.

We are not used to seeing people die at the hands of killers. This is what it looks like. Angry indeed.
I totally understand what our black males go through. As strange as it may sound, I am a woman of color and was pulled over by the police while wearing a hoodie on a cold winter night and driving to the store with my daughter to pick something up to finish my cooking. White cop saw that I had on a hoodie while driving behind me, turned on his siren, had no reason to pull me over, I drove into a 7-Eleven parking lot, he gets out of his vehicle, walked up to the window, saw my black face and his white face nearly fell to the ground. He gets back in his car so quickly and drove away that I was not able to get the license plate to file a complaint. I am 100% convinced that black men are targets. Did I say it? I sure did.
I am white, female, born in1971. Up until the last few years, I thought we were beyond this. How nieve I have been. That's terrible that certain people of a white race think they have authority to act on suspicions and not waite for facts. It is terrible that people with authority and power that they stand on an unarmed cuffed man and arrogantly feel I don't need to let this man breath, I'm in control. You can't make me stop, I am in power. That is what I see with anger and frustration as I watch that video. I yell STOP!!! Knowing it's too late. Please America..... Please... Stop.
i want you to do the Harlem Challenge, Go through my old neighbor hood at 1 a.m. and have a black friend go at 1:30 and then report how you were treated compared to how she was treated. with the only difference being your skin color....Go ask any white boy that grew up in the hood if they feel they been treated differnt cause there skin color, Humans are humans the have capacity for good and evil. it was wrong for whites to make assumptions on blacks as a whole based on bad choices of a few, just like today its wrong to make assumptions on police as a whole based on actions of a few.
Spoken as a true human being with a caring heart ...Amen !!!
Thanks for acknowledging, that we are all human beings. With a heart and soul that only out creator can truly judge. Psalm 100 verse 3 says. Know he that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
Thank you Michael, I'm a white man that has much respect for the man you are, not a sports fan but just because you represent what I respect in any man . I can't say you've not made mistakes in life, I have but I try every day to be better do better and show that I can grow as a human being. These things I see in many men of every race and belief . I aspire to be more like and learn from their example. I know there are more good men and women who just need a good example. My heart aches that there are so few of them in our nation's most powerful leadership positions. Thank you for your words but more importantly thank you for the example of a man being strong of mind, morality and body while showing kindness and acceptance of others is not a weakness.
I think you missed the point about police brutality and the senseless killings of unarmed black people.
Xman• respectfully it's not mine to make that point I believe that's already proven an undeniable fact, many times over. I wanted to bring attention to the use of a strong man of any race showing a positive and unifying message from a position of respect from men of all races and beliefs. I believe taking the knee, was another one of the most powerful effective statements ever made in the same manner. A statement still ringing around the planet. I'm not Muslim, Jewish, Hindu... But when my brother feels need to stop and pray for his faith, I can gladly bow my head, kneel in respect or simply sit in silence. Not because I have to believe as he does but, as my brother I respect his right to do so. By example, I've given him the tools to respect mine without needing to defend his. When men and women in a position of leadership spit poison and disrespect while trying to dominate others into agreement there is no growth. I just pointed out the difference in leading and holding a position.
@@butchbrunson2486
With all due respect pontificating about powerful messages and how Michael is a good guy betrays Michael by ignoring what he is standing for. Whether we all come together or not there needs to be an end to police brutality and racial inequities. We can't wait for pie in the sky solutions. Respectfully, it sounds like you're dodging the issue.
Joe Ann• Thank you for the information. I'm familiar with some and will be looking at the rest. I don't claim to have all the answers but, it seems simple enough that the color of skin should never be a basis for dividing. It is no measure of the morality that dwells inside. If we're led by men and women who are so lacking in character that they see past the color of skin, we're following fools and led to foolishness. I see to many people in positions of power that look at the pictures and want to teach the class. Anyone that knows so much as they are beyond learning from others is a fool who's beyond learning. If we can get past defending what's obviously wrong in our leaders because they prove to be not who we thought we can open the door for leadership that can prove worthy and learn to celebrate the value of everyone. When the message of a policy maker begins with , we and they, it's not good policy.

Mike I feel your pain I watch my husband and sons and I’ve had the conversation to not show anger to not be that “scary black guy” when someone wrongs you, with my sons over and over again. My daughters get the talk too because gender doesn’t protect them from a bullet or a bash to the head either. Just typing that statement sent chills down my body. You see when you give birth to your children they are beautiful and you want the world to see them as you do. As a black parent it is hard to say that my black children are not as valuable to the world as white children. I am glad to be who God made me to be but those people who choose to cancel out God’s work make me sad, tired, and furious. My husband and I are retired military and we served our country proudly. Under my watch your babies became my babies and I planned on sacrificing myself for them. Why didn’t it happen in reverse? But I know that looking at us they don’t see that first, it will always be skin first. I’m not mad about that because again this is God at work. But valuing one skin color over the other is Man’s problem

Insanity Is Doing the Same Thing Over and Over Again and Expecting Different Results
Actually Jesus was Crucified for having these conversations by a mob that didn’t like it. In a Roman Government. Jewish Church leaders hated that Jesus Spoke the Truth about Gods Love instead of conforming to the daily rituals that the “church” had pushed forward while pushing Love downward. So those so called “Bible believers” avoiding these conversations really got to look in the mirror about what they believe in. The apostles wrote letters to the churches having conversations about everything from too many factions occuring, to pride, to sexual immorality, to ego...so many conversations. The ones mindlessly saying what your quoting over the timelines are probably under the same influence that mindlessly creates follows of the Marxist group known as Blm.

@@maggier5882 First of all, his name was George Floyd and you need to deal with the issue. The issue is that racism is alive and well in this country. Stop trying to change the narrative. You are so uncomfortable dealing with racism that you have to divert the conversation. I am sure that you did not mean to sound like you think that George Floyd deserved what happened to him. Try to listen to yourself, " ...if we had more like him maybe we would not be here ..." Are you kidding me?!?!?!?! Who is the "we" to which you refer? I think what you meant to say is that "if white America had all clean-cut educated black men who approached life like Dr. King, America would be perfect." I guess you would think that because they killed Dr. King also. Well, white American men created the system in which George Floyd grew up, which created the man who put his knee on his neck, and which helped develop your inability to face the injustices set in stone by a system that has oppressed African Americans since we arrived on slave ships. George Floyd was a human being who had made mistakes in his life (I am sure you never did make mistakes or at least you did not get caught because white covers a multitude of sins, right?), paid for those mistakes, and was living his best life at the time he was killed. Furthermore, Antifa did not factor into this until #45 mentioned Antifa. Again, diverting your attention from the real issue which is racism, you chose to ignore the true issue! Read and learn, then post!

@Da Gr8one GEORGE FLOYD HAS BECOME THE SYMBOL FOR THE BLACK LIVES MATTER MOVEMENT? THAT REMOVES ALL CREDIBILITY FROM THE MOVEMENT. THERE WAS ZERO RACISM INVOLVED IN GEORGE FLOYD's DEATH.
GEORGE FLOYD LEAD A LIFE OF CRIME. HE SPENT FIVE YEARS IN PRISON FOR BREAKING INTO A PREGNANT WOMAN'S HOUSE, BEATING HER WITH HIS PISTOL, AND ROBBING HER AT GUNPOINT. HE HAD MANY OTHER THEFT AND DRUG OFFENSES ON HIS RAP SHEET AS WELL.
AND BY CHOOSING CRIME HE LEFT A BEAUTIFUL YOUNG DAUGHTER TO GROW UP WITHOUT A FATHER, AS WELL AS FOUR OTHER CHILDREN
GEORGE FLOYD WAS STONED ON METH AND OPIOIDS WHEN HE TRIED TO STEAL CIGARETTES AND RESISTED ARREST, AND THE POLICE FOLLOWED THE BOOK ON SUBDUING AN AGGRESSIVE RESISTING DRUG CRAZED CRIMINAL. THERE WAS NO WAY THEY COULD KNOW HE HAD THE CORONA VIRUS, NOR SHOULD THAT EVEN BE AN ISSUE.
IT IS A HUGE MISCARRIAGE OF JUSTICE AND RACISM THAT THE POLICE ARE BEING CHARGED FOR DOING THEIR JOB TO KEEP SOCIETY FREE OF HARD CORE CRIMINALS CAUGHT IN THE ACT OF COMMITTING CRIME.
GEORGE FLOYD BROUGHT HIS DEATH ON HIMSELF. THAT RACISTS ARE MAKING HIS DEATH AN ISSUE OF RACE IS THE ONLY RACISM HERE. THESE RACISTS ARE GOING TO BECOME EVEN MORE AGGRESSIVE AND VIOLENT IN THE FUTURE, A BLACK POLICE OFFICER WAS KILLED BY THEM IN SAINT LOUIS THREE DAYS AGO, AMONG OTHER POLICE OFFICERS SHOT AND INNOCENT PEOPLE KILLED.
WE WILL END THIS BY USING THE MILITARY, TRAGICALLY. IT WILL COME TO THAT IN THE FUTURE, AND YOU KNOW IT. WE WILL NOT HAVE A NATION WITHOUT LAWS AND SECURITY GUARANTEEING THE RIGHTS OF OUR CITIZENS, BLACK AND WHITE. THE MILITARY WILL EVENTUALLY HAVE TO STOP THIS CHAOS AND MURDER IN OUR STREETS.

@@5tubbs814 YOUR ROLE MODEL AND HERO GEORGE FLOYD WAS IN PRISON NINE DIFFERENT TIME IN HIS LIFE, ONE OF THEM FOR BEATING A PREGNANT WOMAN WITH HIS GUN AS HE ROBBED HER IN HER HOME. HIS AUTOPSY SHOWED HE WAS STONED ON METH AND OPIOIDS WHEN HE USED FAKE $20s TO TRY TO STEAL CIGARETTES AND THE POLICE HAD TO SUBDUE A VIOLENT AGGRESSIVE LIFE TIME CRIMINAL BY PROCEDURE AND WITH FORCE AS HE RESISTED ARREST. BEING HANDCUFFED DEFINITELY DOES NOT MEAN HE WAS COOPERATING, AND HIS LIFE OF VIOLENCE PROVES THAT. IT SAYS ALOT ABOUT YOU THAT YOU CHOOSE A FELON AND HARD CORE CRIMINAL LIKE GEORGE FLOYD TO LEAD YOU. CAN'T YOU PERSONALLY DO ANY BETTER THAN HIM???
"....I'm ANGRY, but as a Black Man I can't show too much anger because then they are afraid of me?..." My father (RIP Pops) said the same thing to us when we were little. I am rocking 50+ and remember his 6'2/220 + frame demanding attention whenever he walked into a room. We all noticed it, so he would sometimes explain all the "oooh and aaah" ~ HA! They still are not used to the presence of a KING!?!
GEORGE FLOYD HELD A GUN TO A PREGNANT WOMAN'S BELLY WHILE HIS THUG FRIENDS ROBBED HER. DON'T TRY TO BUY CIGARETTES WITH FAKE $20s WHILE STONED ON METH AND OPIOIDS AND THEN RESIST ARREST WHILE YOU'VE GOT THE CORONA VIRUS MAKING BREATHING DIFFICULT AND YOU SHOULD BE ALRIGHT.

When did this happen? If it is true I would like to see?
Thomas Dunn I am so sorry to hear your lost of your lost of friend I hope that this change would happen and may justice be served
@@gregsmith7809 see it? How and why...!?
@@gregsmith7809 There are many racial incidents who don't make the news. His friend was lynched and your first reaction is to automatically assume that it's a lie, therefore asking him for proof. You're pathetic! Complete lack of compassion 😗
No matter what George Floyd did, whatever his lifestyle he did not deserve to be MURDERED by the officer. The officer's life was not threatened; however, he took 8 mins and 46 secs to extinguish Floyd's life. We've heard the discussions, saw the funeral, experienced public outcry; however, the change is made by putting pen to paper, change the laws. If not, all we would have done is have a pity party. The world is watching. RIP George Floyd.
This is so true THE PEOPLE need to set the standards of these PUBLIC SERVANTS they need to be a high standard for all public SERVANTS medical evaluations mentally and physically and call's should be represented by the same ethnic back round per racial per district where there is no BIAS call's female officers are called for women the same race should be called so feedback will be with equal Representatives within our POLICE OFFICERS racial balance within our POLICE FORCE
Not true. There is man's judgement and then there is God's judgement. He deserved death. It doesn't matter how God serves it. HIS LAW CLEARLY STATES DO NOT DATE OUTSIDERS. HIS LAW CLEARLY STATES MARRY THE WOMEN YOU SLEEP WITH. HIS LAW SAID DO NOT MAKE A COVENANT WITH THE HEATHENS. HIS LAW SAYS DO NOT BE PERVERSE AND INVOLVE YOUR SELF IN LEWDNESS ( PORN ) HIS LAW SAY RAISE YOUR CHILDREN. HIS LAW SAYS TURN AWSY FROM WICKEDNESS SO THAT YOU DON'T DIE IN YOUR SINS. HE DIDN'T. SO HE DIED IN HIS SINS.

No. Thou shall not kill is a commandment for Israelites to not kill Israelites. He gives us permission to kill outsiders. And George wasn't killed by his own people so his blood isn't on our hands. Period.

@Frances Wilson You hit the nail on the head. What you have described is a tangled web that black people have found themselves constantly caught up in, without any escape. There is no exit, because it's a game. And the sad part of it all is that if you play the game, you might be allowed to live a decent, second-class-citizen life. That is your reward. But if you don't play the game, if you avoid the tangled web, you are going to have an extremely rough time in America.
@Frances Wilson thank you so much!
Thank you from Iowa. We are all one people. I can't understand, but I listen and try to hold on to hope.

Michael I am sorry that this is still going on. It’s so sad. There are people who are protesting the right way, and there are protesters that have to ask people to please protest without hurting innocent people’s businesses and physically hurting innocent people. I feel for them. I hate it when people die like this and it never gets better. I am praying for all of the people who are grieving and hurting because of this. You have a right to be angry and scared. All we can do is pray and the people that can make a difference should try very hard to do so. Someone like me can only pray and love everyone around me. I will do that because that’s all I can do. God Bless everyone and stay safe from the virus. Please everyone if you are out in the streets together wear your masks to protect one another. 😭💜😭💜
As Rodney King said “cant we just all get along!” We humans come in all shades, so why be afraid.

Mike, I'm just surprised that, for a quarterback Drew Brees should have known the score and what time it is! Mic'20 ADOS get involved
Don't worry about Drew Brees, they already got a 3rd string 350 lb muscled up middle linebacker on the fringe of being released, who already has the bounty money in the bank for old Drew. BOOM. 15 yard penalty, ejected from the game, $25,000 fine which will be paid by the NFLPA and Drew, when he wakes up in the ICU will be out of football, forever. Won't even get a broadcasting job because for some strange reason he thinks his name DUH. Just kidding :-)

we need to understand better what some people are subjected to and stop injustice
A year ago, I purchased a home in a beautiful 55 and over retirement community in Dover, DE. My daughter and grandson came to visit me recently. We went on the walking trail for my grandson to ride his bike and fish. After becoming exhausted, I went to sit in my car but could see my family from afar. Some random white couple began interrogating my daughter asking if she was a resident or guest. That was not ok and reeks of white privilege. I am a black woman and could not contain my emotions. I made it clear for them never to approach my family in that manner again!!
Michael you are a great Role Model. I'm beyond angry. We need to sit down. Aretha Franklin - Respect.

It's hard to imagine the life of a person of color when you haven't lived it. There are those who sympathize Yes. There are those who say if you comply with the police nothing will happen to you. If you're not guilty why resist nothing will happen to you. But when you are a person of color you wonder everyday when you wake up if this is the day. Try living like that and maybe you'll understand..

Agree needs to be all across the board in all races and then we'll see change until we all screwed
The sad thing is we cannot change someone else’s heart. We need to be on our knees before God asking Him to make the change within the hearts of those who are racist, those who are scared, and those who are ignorant to the equality of Gods creation of various shades of brown, and Gods love for us all.
No, the sad thing here is that we cannot read a person's heart or mind in the way that most people are acting as though they can.
The police officer was rogue,..he broke protocol and basically murdered George Floyd.
The officer did this. Not the Nation.
Police forces are not National or Federal. They are State, then County, then City.
We already have a law against murder and it should obviously remain in place as a huge deterrent. But it is a law,..a law that is sadly broken with regularity.
Why is this murderous officer's motive considered racial ?
Based on what ? The officer is white and George was black ? When this happens between a black cop and and a black person or white cop and a white person NOTHING is said and the country isn't in turmoil. Ask yourself why that is.
Isn't it completely possible and even likely for a white cop to do this to a black man for reasons that have absolutely nothing to do with race ? Of course it is !!! Yet here we are anyway. Smh.
I understand why the media implies this because it is clearly obvious that the media haven't been in the journalism business in a long time and are clearly political activists.
But WHY do soo many people treat the idea that we know the cop was a racist as being some foregone, absolute fact ? Treating this in this way seems very irresponsible to put it delicately.
There have been at least 7 police officers killed as a direct result of protestors. You could make a much more definitive case that these officers were killed because of race. Because the entire reason behind all of this is based on the idea that George Floyd was Black and he was killed by a White police officer,..therefore the motive is factually racism and cannot possibly be anything else.
What happened was tragic, terrible, unconscionable and wrong on every level. Just as any murder that isn't self defense is.
I checked the records for the entire 2019 year across the entire nation in regard to Police shooting and killing unarmed Blacks and also whites....
There were exactly 10 cases where a Police officer shot and killed an unarmed Black person.
8 of the 10 were justified in a court of law with predominantly black jurors..The other 2 officers were convicted of murder.
So that is 2.
There were 37 unarmed whites killed by police officers in 2019.
All cases were justified but one...That officer was convicted of murder.
There were more black people struck by lightning in 2019 than the 2 wrongfully killed by police officers. I state this to disprove the false notion that this happens at a large level with frequency. Not to down play the murder of these 2.
I am appalled by what this officer did. But I think there is a real problem in our nation with soo many people reading racism into every situation with absolutely no basis for it.
What happened to George Floyd was murder by an idiot, rogue policeman. The reality is bad enough. He should and likely will be convicted of murder.
Burning the Nation down isn't happening because of just murder. It's happening because of this baseless, fabricated idea that the motive was racism. The atrocity that happened to George Floyd and his family was and is sad.
Turning this murder into a nationwide "racism" epidemic is making his murder worse.
Your entire message was irrelevant to my comment. I agree with you that this Incident was not an issue of racism. I am also annoyed how the news media portrays things... I do not stand with the protesters actions of hurting innocent people by destroying and stealing, putting people in harms way, blocking main highways, lighting buildings on fire and then refusing to allow first responders to assist the situation, throwing bricks through housing where children live. It’s just not right! But I also know that racism is still an issue as well, and many are living in fear because of it. My point was the protesters actions will not solve the issue. The only possibility of a racist heart being changed is by the love of God filling it. That was my point. Have a nice day
😭 so glad you posted this. Praying for humanity🤲🏻
Mike good to hear you. The process is in motion. People need to lose the fear and transform the police state to a compassionate level headed policing. You are an inspiration. Thank you

1 thing I noticed.. a person or a friend can be outstanding but it’s when you aren’t there. Is when they show their true colors
Who can choke someone or sit on their neck or chest, and who wouldn’t squirm for air? I have anxiety attacks and I am constantly moving while in that mode. I also have a 11 year old black boy who is overwhelmed by looking at the obvious murder on tv. but he must see. Now when he see police he has fear. This has devastated our children now they are reading about Trayvon martin asking reading about Tamir rice etc and he ask why are they doing this and nobody cares... it seems the judges the DA and lawyers have also failed us. My son is more terrified of cops over coronavirus. It’s a living hell.
How many dam cops does it take to contain one black man, unarmed and they have guns....I don't get it. What ever happen to Innocent until proven guilty or Due Process.
Just wanted to say police didn't kill Trayvon Martin. He was killed by a civilian. George Zimmerman was an insurance underwriter. Maybe you knew this and I'm sorry if you did. I came a lot of people who didnt know it wasnt a police officer who killed Trayvon. George Zimmerman is a plain old civilian that is 1/4 Peruvian and 1/4 black. His father is German and that's where he got his German name. Zimmerman identifies as Latino when filling out forms for jobs, voter registration, etc.

Hoping GMA focuses their stories on what laws are changing OR NOT in these states where these heinous crimes were perpetrated by those entrusted to uphold the law. I personally wouldn’t want them to be afforded any protections of law IF they so choose to step outside their sworn duties and perpetuate crimes against humanity. Think about what police officer’s heinous behavior in three states has unleashed on our entire country. And now, unidentifiable people who hold guns are gathered up to protect against looters. Don’t bother showing any video of 45-another one who took an oath and have abdicated ALL responsibility to citizens, no matter how many times he poses in front of a church.

Everyone saying that Michael Strahan is not a journalist he's on TV too much he's just a football player this video shows why he's on GMA everyday as an anchor because it's one thing to report on the story is another thing to give context emotion and connection to what's happening anybody can tell a story that's another thing to understand the story

My biggest sphere of influence is my family so I’m making an effort to be intentional in teaching my daughter all of America’s history, including the disgrace of slavery, segregation, racism, but also celebrating black men and women and their brilliant minds, hearts, and contributions to make our society better. Grounded on the foundation that God our Creator perfectly designed us all in different, creative ways but He gives us all equal value and love and desires for us to love each other this way too.
bless you you willbe rewarded.
theses policemen dont acknowledge a Creator. But they will be forced to know that there is ONE.
Are you going to teach her that in America today a white man is 10 times more likely to be killed by a black man than the reverse? Or that police kill twice as many whites as blacks? Or that of 7000 black men murdered each year that 95% are killed by another black person? Likely you won't. Teaching our kids to feel guilty for things they didn't do is moronic.
