    George Floyd Day Holiday

    This is now a paid holiday for New York State Governor Andrew Cuomo passed it into law this man had a long record of accomplishments can't make this up


    George Floyd's profile reads like a career criminal involved in drug abuse, criminal trespassing, aggravated robbery and pointing a gun at woman's stomach

      I'm surprised they didn't do this for Rodney King who also had a long life of crime.

            For whom?

            The whites that built this country, the native Indians, the Spanish, those in the Nazi occupied countries of WW2, French, British, Russia?

            Most every race, civilization and country has or had slavery. Many, if not most, weren't fed, sheltered and clothed. Slavery is still alive and well in some countries as we speak.

                        That post may be misleading, but a Juneteenth National Holiday is a done deal. Anybody who questions the "need" for it, like anybody who questioned the legitimacy of elevating MLK to the status of Washington or Lincoln, is by definition "racist," according to Dems & the national news media. Whatever blacks say is due them is NOT to be questioned!

                          So we tear down statues of war heros who fought for what they believed and now celebrate petty criminals (remember, he passed a phony $20, and got caught) who break the law and can expect to meet the police.

                              Probably U. S. Grant, with Sherman the runner-up; furthermore, they killed them as they were defending their own land, not invading the North.
