A lot of good points in her video, but what was glaring to me was her i.d. of the collective culture among blacks to be willingly and in the main preferably known for failures in one regard or another. When I think of Carson, Sowell, Thomas and many others like them color never enters my mind. When I think of looters and thugs, I am sorry to say, I think in color.

When I saw that cop with his knee on George Floyd's neck, I didn't see color. But people should ask themselves the question, considering the hundreds of blacks killed by cop per year, why do you only hear about a few of them? Why do certain killings cause people to take to the streets and others don't? Do we ever see protests, rioting, and such when Hispanics, Asians, or whites are killed by cop? And, why does anyone believe whites burning, rioting, and looting in black neighborhoods means they care?

I thought the WuFlu hysteria was bad, and it was. But the media really outdid themselves on this one. Everyone is jumping on the racial oppression bandwagon.

#2,
YOU are part of the problem...from where do you get the statistic that "considering the hundreds of blacks killed by cop per year", from blm? msm? george soros?
I strongly urge you to view Tucker Carlson from 6/3/20 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gVyo1Ny0RgM&feature=emb_share&fbclid=IwAR1o41TgUQLZZ8F8UKgyvXvXklRXqrCwYyCQrwK84AxWfY3RTqjfOmAZfco).....he has the FACTS on this ginned up anti-American movement...btw, who is going to respond to the 911 call at 3:00 in the morning if we "de-fund the police"...you? Wake the hell up.

More whites are killed by cops than blacks. What happened to Floyd was wrong, but claiming all whites are racist because of that incident is, well, racist.

Candace speaks the truth. People of every color always want to blame somebody or something else for the trouble they cause themselves.

#2 - 19 unarmed whites were killed by cops last year. Way more than unarmed blacks. Can you name one?

Good grief! What's with the pile-on of #2? She never said anything about armed or unarmed people or whether those people were actually SHOOTING at the cops and deserved to have a bullet put in them. Did any of you jumping on her read the rest of her post or did you get triggered about her statistic (that many of you misinterpreted) and then jump into attack mode? (I'm thinking the latter fits the bill!)
That's pretty pathetic . . . and disgusting!

#8, if you think that Candace Owens is going to apologize, you obviously don’t know a thing about her.

So Joe Biden can tell someone they "ain't black enough" if not voting for him. I really get what is going on here; well, the obvious is the faithless versus the faithful. This is about Obama and Joe Biden ramping up the vote. They really think they are gods of some sort and this is a call for action. Everyone is running around thinking of George Floyd as some kind of saint. Bad usually follows bad and the police officer dealing with this situations points me to another phrase. Bad collided with bad. When I read Candace's article and found out that George Floyd held a gun to a pregnant women's abdomen, that is all I needed to know. Yes, he did time for it but the fact they found fentanyl and methamphetamines in his autopsy report tells me change on his behalf was superficial.
To all of you who are voting for Biden, think long and hard about it because bad usually follows bad. The way he handled himself with the country Ukraine was really sad. The way Obama has handled himself corruptly and he takes all of his "share the wealth earnings" and invests it in himself, you may want to ask yourself some serious questions.

''Hundred of blacks killed by cop per year?''
Fake statistics. Propaganda. The blacks that do die are gang or criminal related, and certainly not ''hundreds!'' Same as white gang members and criminals that are killed. Police don't excuse crime, based on skin color- except in democrat-run cities.
Blacks are killed overwhelmingly by other blacks. Consider the typical weekend in Chicago, or any other democrat-run city. Why no outrage and demonstrations over that? The law-abiding blacks in those communities are not heard, because the media doesn't think it's a problem!

We used to be lectured "if you were not Black ,you had no free speech rights to comment on their behavior or culture". I would recommend that anyone who has not tried to restrain a person propelled by amphetamines, refrain from commenting on the cause of death, at least until all the facts are out. I love C.O. and pray she has flawless security, but she could have left out condemnation of the Po Po. Justice in our system, requires presumption of innocence, even when some of the evidence "seems" damning.

High time someone told the truth about this small-time, potentially dangerous druggie… Anyone who breaks into a woman’s home and “presses a gun to her stomach” while he ransacks the house, searching for drugs and money, deserves more than five years in prison. And the rest of his rap sheet is not impressive either. Still drugged out when arrested for passing a counterfeit $20 bill, stoned out of his mind on multiple high octane drugs. At 46? Hopeless. Didn’t deserve to die, but he was going to sooner or later. And he was not worthy of the worship being poured on him. Is he really the best that society can produce?

Who and what the left sanctifies allows for no discussion, the facts be damned. Candace Owens speaks the truth, though she's black she's also a conservative and for that she will be vilified.

It's so encouraging to see smart and beautiful black woman who are a credit to their race. Too many of the other kind dominate the media.

It's finally refreshing -- after watching all the pandering "news" coverage -- for somebody to speak the truth about this minor tragedy, now blown all out of proportion into a worldwide event.

Is critical reasoning a lost art in the USA these days?
Let's ponder for a moment...
a) Why would a WHITE policeman working alongside fellow black policemen, and all working for Chief Medaria Arradondo, a black man, EVER do anything racially improper/insensitive/egregious? Wouldn't that be defined as "career suicide?" Minneapolis today is definitely not the Alabama of Gov. George Wallace (D).
b) Why would a police officer, whose fellow officers are "body-cam'd" and smartphone equipped citizens all around, violate police department prescribed procedures under the circumstances? Do people really think police officers are that stupid? People who do need to go on late night patrol car ride-alongs into the heart of darkness and see what they deal with. It ain't pretty.
c) How was anyone at the scene to know George Floyd had heart disease and was taking Meth and Fentanyl, both heart stopping drugs? Are police expected to perform "field physicals" prior to arresting a perp if he left his medical-alert bracelet at home? Totally insane.
d) Would there be any "blacktivist" outrage had George Floyd been STANDING and suffered the cardiac arrest? I venture to say, "no," and nothing would be said. The Antifa 'cracker-boyz' would have to wait for another reason to do their anarchy thing.
Conclusion: If there is anyone suffering biased treatment and blatant RACISM it's this white police officer, whose only crime in this case is being white. Had a black policeman had his knee above George Floyd's neck, there'd be NO outrage, none, just like there's ZERO outrage from blacktivists when an innocent black child is killed in a drive by shooting by thugs in Chicago... nope, to them that's just, "nuda day in da hood."

When LDotters start believing the Dem, radical activist and media propaganda, we are really in trouble. Didn’t Tucker say that 10 blacks were shot by police last year? The overwhelming statistics show (1) blacks shooting blacks (including children) and (2) blacks shooting or otherwise harming police.

Floyd was high on meth and Fentanyl with can lead to unpredictable and violent behavior. The police may not have known WHAT he was on but they knew he was on something. The best thing they can do is CONTROL the person. Floyd was NOT bruised so whatever they did it was with minimal force. Kneeling on Floyd's neck may have been to control a potentially dangerous person, no matter how it looked. Further, people with this combination of drugs can die suddenly from a heart attack, exactly what happened. Floyd had just committed a crime. He had served prison time. He was a criminal and he was dangerous.
Making Floyd a poster child for police violence against Blacks makes as much sense as running senile Uncle Joe for president.
Congratulations to Candace for facing up to the truth of this.

George Floyd was not a good guy. But that's completely irrelevant. The cops had him in custody, meaning they were responsible for his life. And they let him die with depraved indifference.

Floyd had landed five years behind bars in 2009 for an assault and robbery two years earlier, and before that, had been convicted of charges ranging from theft with a firearm to drugs, the Minneapolis Daily Mail reported.

She said he had been jailed 5 times, once for assaulting a pregnant woman, was high when he was arrested, dropped a white baggie...you don't really think the media would tell you the whole truth did you?
