  2. So far he is making good points. He also took responsibility for CNN crew’s arrest. He apologized.

    He sounds like a real leader.

  4. I listened to the Gov then stopped. Why do I feel like nothing will happen to the cops that murdered George Floyd?
    It gets so old, talk is cheap, things will drag out and they’ll hope everyone will have forgotten what happened.
    Rinse and repeat, ad nauseam.

  5. Wow…you’re right. Moving words too.
