    Suspect it might have something to do with them getting killed in horrific circumstances having done nowt to deserve that kind of death ... but I might just be being picky...

    Breonna Taylor, not the cops fault, her BF shot the cops first
    Michael brown hands up dont shoot, completely untrue
    Floyd, have you seen the bodycam that shows it up to the point of the internet video?
    Treyvon, attacked the guy smashing his head against the ground

    2019 twice as many white unarmed people were shot by cops. Though white deaths are of no political use

    He asked to be put on the ground, he said he couldn't breathe before he was even on the ground
    He swallowed his fentanyl stash, 2mg will kill you, and I'd say he swallowed it by accident in the struggle to get him in the police car.
    Autopsy said his heart stopped

    FYI when you stop the blood to someone's brain, it takes about 10 seconds for them to go lights out, Khabib just did it to win his 27th win in MMA. 10 seconds ish. He was with it for minutes before he passed out, impossible if the cop is putting pressure there on his neck


    Fentanyl tho
    "When someone uses fentanyl in the long-term, this change in the natural rhythm of the heart can become permanent, contributing to a lack of adequate oxygen delivery and heart damage."

    Sure buddy ... let's see if the trial of Chauvin concludes that he didn't cause George Floyd's death ... and it was Breona Taylor's own fault for deliberately blocking all those bullets with her body <ok>

    Just sying like, I don't think the cops did good in this instance, he was dying, his mouth was already foaming up before they even put him on the ground, they failed to care for him

    You cant tell from a video how much pressure he had on his leg but the lack of any aggression throughout the whole thing by everyone there, and the quite unbelievable idea that the cop would just do that, in cold blood, when the guy was not even remotely a threat nor did they treat him as such, makes me think twice tbh, and I have a track record on here for ****ting on US cops

    Here is the entire transcript from the body cams. Ignore the asshole journalists comments between sections
    https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/2020/08/larry-c-johnson-yes-new-evidence-shows-george-floyd-killed/

    This was absolutely not a brutality case, it was a complete failure to care for someone who was in their care, once arrested but it didnt matter whether they made him tea, he was already crashing before he lay down

    You should read it, its his last words I guess, and sad, because you know he's dying.

    And only 13 were in the UFC. The guy needed more fights and he would have been the GOAT.

    Well done everyone.

    Pay-per-view: Premier League fans raise £300,000 as scheme set to continue

    Premier League fans boycotting pay-per-view games have raised over £300,000 for charity - but the controversial TV scheme is set to continue at least until next month's international break.

    Matches that are outside the scheduled TV broadcast selections are available on BT Sport Box Office or Sky Sports Box Office for £14.95 per game.

    Games had been available free-to-air since the Premier League returned without fans in June.

    But that changed in early October.

    Clubs said the pay-to-view measure was an "interim solution" to allow fans to watch their teams live.

    However, on Monday Newcastle owner Mike Ashley called for a review, saying fans had "overwhelmingly rejected" the scheme and it should be reduced to £4.95 per game until Christmas. The pricing will be debated at a Premier League shareholders meeting on Tuesday.

    The model is set to be extended to the matches on 6, 7 and 8 November, but it is understood clubs are likely to delay a longer-term decision until nearer to the Premier League getting back under way on 21 November.

    The clubs, which voted 19-1 in favour of the move initially, want to wait on the latest information from the government regarding the return of fans to games.

    On 9 November, the government will debate a petition about the return of fans which received more than 198,000 signatures.

    BT Sport and Sky Sports reportedly want the pay-per-view model to be scrapped because of concerns about the damage it is doing to their reputation. The broadcasters provided an estimate of costs to produce the pay-per-view games and the Premier League sets the price.

    The Premier League announced their broadcast picks for November on Friday, but there was no mention of pay-to-view games, with the league saying "additional broadcast selections will be announced in due course".

    When it was first announced the move drew criticism from football supporters, while former Manchester United and England right-back Gary Neville, now a Sky pundit, said on social media it was a "really bad move" by the Premier League.

    The boycott has led to record breaking donations to food banks so the PL have decided in their wisdom to reduce the PPV price by £4.95

    Even by 2020 standards the PL has missed the point by an almost comical level

    duh 27, yes of course.

    Only lost one round in 29 fights and even then, in that round McGregor was hooking his fingers in Khabib's gloves at the wrists, which is not allowed.

    Why wouldn't he retire, no one can touch him.

    Hoping for a GSP v Khabib comeback

    I get your reasoning. A challenge presented later on can change things I'm hoping. Especially if the challenger is trashing him. You know Khabib, he's mad into that honor stuff
