I've been talking about it a lot on FB.
GN seems to have only one topic of conversation at the moment so i didn't bother.

I was wondering about that, phoenix

We were horrified when we saw this horrendous footage

Just horrific

Pleased to hear they've been sacked and that one has been arrested for murder with the others possibly following

A couple of days ago, this clip came up on a newsfeed and for a few seconds I couldn’t believe what I was seeing.
I am totally incensed, angry beyond belief and sad for the loss of that poor mans life.
The officer killing him and the others stood by should be arrested for murder.
Pure and simple.

I think it's a case of "it's not in the UK so it doesn't matter!"

The news headlines are Thousands die in Africa and Princess gets new dress.....guess which gets top billing?

Perhaps everyone is waiting for someone else to start the ball rolling.

No one has posted about George Floyd!

Disgraceful killing.

Are we unable to look beyond our own immediate locality? Have we stopped caring about anything beyond bloody Covid 19 and the fact we can't see our grandchildren?

Sorry, not my usual sort of post, will don my tin helmet and get behind the sofa.
