Blue Lives Matter or Black Lives Matter; a constant debate that has taken over the United States since July 22, 2020. When the news that George Floyd died due to the hands of the police, there was a public outrage. There were riots, looters, and destruction ranging from small black-owned business to million-dollar companies. This was when the “Defund the Police Movement” began. Why would they take away our law enforcement? For what reason? Because they had done their job?
A Brooklyn College professor, Alex Vitale, says, “This is a political problem, not a policing problem.“ He isn’t wrong. The political aspect of things is why Black Lives Matter went in the direction it did. This is not about the police and their training; it is about the public and how the news will do anything to cause chaos in our country. People enjoy drama, and this was a way to start it.
An interview with Fox News Insider shows us a black marine who speaks out against Black Lives Matter. Link posted here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0x3VMj0B7EA. He made the main point that Black Lives Matter was nothing more than to cause more racism and allow black people to act out on slavery that they had never even experienced. He says, “They are allowing the black people to kill white people for slavery that happened 400 years ago. All lives matter; that’s it.”
The news was released to the public that the officer killed George Floyd. What they didn’t say was that George Floyd had the drug Fentanyl in his system, which caused him not to be able to breathe correctly. This was how the news blamed the officer who placed his knee on his neck, which if you examine the footage, the police officer’s knee was on his upper back. The public doesn’t realize that this is one of the methods that an officer is trained to use in order to hold down an offender. Putting a knee on the neck isn’t meant to suffocate the guilty person; it’s supposed to hold them down.
George Floyd’s original autopsy report writes that the cause of death was Fentanyl poisoning; which seems to be gone and off the internet. Here is the list of drugs in his system; the first being Fentanyl (11 mL). Here is a list of the drugs/drink intakes in his system at the time of his death:
- Fentanyl (11mL)
- Norfentanyl (5.6 ng/mL)
- 4-ANPP 0.65 ng/mL
- Methamphetamine 19 ng/mL
- Various types of THC: 11-Hydroxy Delta-9 THC 1.2 ng/mL; Delta-9 Carboxy THC 42 ng/mL; Delta-9 THC 2.9 ng/mL
- Cotinine positive
- Caffeine positive
All the drugs and caffeine in his system were an apparent reason for his death. People wanted something to blame George Floyd’s death, so they blamed the officer who restrained him. When watching the body cam that was placed on the second officer’s vest, we see the officer who allegedly killed George was trying to make him comfortable when George began having a panic attack and stating he couldn’t breath, even though he hadn’t been pinned down yet. In fact, at one point, the cop asked George if he wanted him to roll the window down to make him feel better. Link posted here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0gQYMBALDXc.
So, why do people want to defund the police over this? The meaning behind defunding the police isn’t getting rid of them; it means stopping funding them. People are demanding defunding the police. The majority of the videos spurring the Black Lives Matter movement are questionable at most. Almost every one of the “victims” were criminals committing crimes. All it takes is for the people to stop committing crimes; then you won’t have to encounter the police.
