Can you divide the good from the bad so we can live safer. This is about sin and those who choose to live in darkness rather that the light. Can their be truth and honor in a corrupt world. The most honest and upright cop will stand with all the rest on that day. Though we live our lives for Christ, we have to live in this world until we are called home. Can I see a difference between good people and bad people, of course, because I am looking at them as they are, not as they should be. We cannot judge the lost according to how we will be judged. That job belongs to God and Him alone. So, Mike, when you hear a blanket statement about Christians, are you going to scratch your head and wonder what they are saying like you just did about my words? I sure hope not.

We saw this terrible occurrence on live tv. The whole nation, the whole world was shocked and angered. Imagine God, He sees everything, all bad deeds in the whole world happening every minute since creation. I have to cry, how much patience He has with us. Now that unbelievers feel the anger, try to explain to them the justice, the wrath of God. Edited June 6, 2020 by Wesley L Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A good thing. I try not to watch just ONE news source even then.. try not to watch them. Yet I watched a person not a news source go through all the people hurt killed murdered on and on. And a few networks are not reporting that at all. Cops right not are being so mistreated...some worse then Floyd was. I know two that are dead. They were not murdered by white. No one is talking about those other people. Just Floyd. Others just this last week..again have been treated far worse then Floyd was. HOW in the world is that not being talked about. I watched.. heard the names.. blood Of Jesus. Like you.. to see just ONE hurt.. just.. we need to pray Song comes to mind..old song..trying to remember the words.. if all we had to do each day.. was get up and go out to play. Take each other by the hand..be the others biggest fan. Think how very proud you'd be if love was all there was to see" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All it comes up with when asking that specific question is "no results". Otherwise, if you just ask the question without quotes, you get "About 2,500,000 results (0.68 seconds) ". All you come up with, page after page, is police brutality, racism, blacks killed by police, etc.. Edited June 7, 2020 by OneLight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was a murder! Right out there in the open on video for the world to see. If you don't think so you either have not seen the video, or you need to check your soul to see if you still have one!

No question. However- he was a giant. 6ft 6 inch tall. Criminal history. 46 years old so at the very peak of strength. Worth thinking about anyone faced with a man of that size and weight with seconds to decide action. Police face severe injury and death anytime. Nobody should die as he did of course. But context is an essential element. Yes there is a lot of injustice and such wrongs but - this man had once held a gun to a pregnant woman, done time in prison. Let's have all aspects out in the light of examination. Not paint a onesided picture. That too is dangerous. did you get this information from the conservative media outlet? to be honest, based on my experience, i am very skeptical of media in general, whether they are liberal or conservative, because they often have their own agenda and can not be trusted with their reporting. but if what you are saying here is true, yes, i do agree in general, police faces many dangers on their jobs, and they have to make some tough decisions. but in George Floyd's case, i don't know enough about the situation to know if what the police did to him was absolutely necessary.

But I am sure not ok with the fact that they have all been charged in this death. what do you mean? so you are saying they should not have been charged with aiding and abetting in the death of George Floyd?
