I thought about my brother George, and I thought about my brother and I thought about my father, I thought about my grandfather. I’m not going to stand there for no nine minutes and 29 seconds and watch somebody murder my father. No, no. Uh, uh.
Martin Luther King Jr. talks about pacifism. And I believe in non- violence, but I’m not going to watch that kind of murder. I love my brother, Charles McMillan. That’s why he was crying. That’s what his tears were about. He felt helpless. We not going to do that.
Some of us black folk, some of us black men, we’re not going to stand there. We’re going to have to intervene in some way. We – they aren’t going to kill us like that. And we remain spectators because somewhere I read, silence is not an option. I don’t stand with the silence. That’s the last two sentences of your letter to Drew. Your letter to your nephew.
But America needs to understand that too. We got to self-respect. We got to self-defense. And we intervene when you start killing us like that.
I HOLEHEARTLEY AGREE with this interview. Thank You for this informational video interview, I enjoyed it and I will pass this along.
By the way that first "Like" is mine.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr.
Ron, I heard about this interview when I was watching Tiffany Cross this morning. She and her guest came to the opposite conclusion but as she said, this was the question everyone had been avoiding. I was glad to see it brought up but I hope none of the poor witnesses beat themselves up terribly.
I did live with people like George Floyd and his girlfriend and his "friend" Morries. Humanity has a hard time in those conditions Ron. You have people like Morries Hall who walk away unscathed leaving behind victims like George Floyd. If you want to appreciate humanity and what some folks will do to others, let"s hear what was in George Floyd's system. Let's find out what Morries pawned off on Floyd besides a counterfeit $20.
L et us keep our comments to this video presentation. Steve, A Police Officer is on trial for the murder of George Floyd.
Now we do know that this Police Officer With using deadly force after George Floyd was handcuffed and seduced. Kneeling on the back of a hand cuffed man neck was Not police procedure, According to That police officers supervisors testimony in court.
Steve, remember nine minutes and 29 seconds of a Police Officer kneeling on the back of George Floyd’s neck. As he begged for the humanity in that police officer and he received no mercy.
That you can see for yourself That the Defense looks pretty shaky at this point.
Steve if that was your son under the knee of this police officer, wouldn’t you seek justice?
Ron, the trial of my son's killer has been delayed almost four years now, if that's what you mean by "police case." The question I keep asking myself since seeing all the video this past week is, why did this judge not try all four men together?
Ron, by showing the bodycam footage of all the officers the court has put them all on trial. The big picture is all out of balance if you think this is just about Chauvin. Any one of those officers could have profoundly changed the outcome if they had chosen to act. Same thing is true of George Floyd, if he'd only taken the advice of poor Charles McMillan.
One trial at a time, this trial was expected to last a month but I understand that this case The judge said it’s ahead of schedule.
Steve, how do you feel about that delay in the Delay of justice in your case? You have a inside look at disappointment on, justice delayed or denied, how do feel about that?
In this case you watch George Floyd die, time after time and time again under the knee of Police Officer Chauvin. You can see the look on Chauvin's face, while he is committing the act and it looks like, this is what he is trained to do.
Steve, Then you feel the helplessness, and the frustrations of the people who was watching and the family members of George Floyd. You have a personal connection, a relationship with the information being presented in this blog.
YOUR REPLY: What do you expect?
MY REPLY: Then why are you trying to defend that Police Officer, defend this X- Disgraced Cop Derek Chauvin from MURDER, when the evidence is plane as the nose on your face?
Ron, I believe that were I present, I would have attacked the officers. Maybe in the moment though I would have chickened out. But George Floyd is dead and ALL of the officers are guilty. George Floyd may also be guilty.
YOUR QUECTION; Why didn't George Floyd get in the car?
MY REPLY: It could because of George Floyd pass experiences of mistrusting by the police.
YOUR QUESTION: Would you be afraid to get in the car Ron?
I don't know Steve.
Steve, You can't have it both ways Steve. Case in point: How did George Floyd put the knee of Police Officer, X- Disgraced Cop Derek Chauvin on the back of his neck and then press down upon it until death?
Because George Floyd would have to be alive to answer those questions you are asking for Steve. So why do you want the trail to go down that rabbit hole?

Steve, You can't have it both ways, Steve. Case in point:
How did George Floyd put the knee of Police Officer, X- Disgraced Cop Derek Chauvin on the back of his neck and then press down upon it until death?
Can't answer that one, can you?
YOUR QUESTION: Right Ron. So why is nobody talking about the "pass experiences of mistrusting by the police?"
MY REPLY: OPEN UP YOUR EYES STEVE, This whole case is centered around one case of past experiences of mistrust by the police and that is THE DEATH OF GEORGE FLOYD by X- Disgraced Cop Derek Chauvin while in the custody of the police.
It was a rhetorical question Ron. I know about the past experiences because they are so common. Floyd and his drug dealer "friend" were waiting to make their connection. When Lane rapped on his window George began frantically stuffing drugs down between the seat and the center console. That's why he wouldn't show both his hands all that time. Then Lane told him to exit the car and face away from him. All Floyd had to do was that one simple, reasonable thing. Chauvin would never even have been in the picture.
WOW!!! You really pulled this BULL💩 right out of your as, lets talk about the trial of THE DEATH OF GEORGE FLOYD by X- Disgraced Cop Derek Chauvin while in the custody of that man.
Did you notice that X- Disgraced Cop Derek Chauvin kept his knee on the back of GEORGE FLOYD neck, with his face grounded in the streets for some THREE minutes after GEORGE FLOYD stopped moving?
Steve, even A young healthy man would not survive that illegal use of force.
The difference between you and me Ron is that I know it comes down to what the jury thinks and you just can't accept that the jury is more important than you. I could serve as an impartial juror on this case but you couldn't. You don't have the necessary ego.
Good Afternoon ROBERTPOWELL, Have you been following this case? If so, do you feel that X- Disgraced Cop Derek Chauvin was correct in using DEADLY FORCE on GEORGE FLOYD?
Why do you feel that Derek Chauvin kept his knee on GEORGE FLOYD'S Neck THREE Minutes after GEORGE FLOYD stop moving?
You agree that even A young healthy man would not survive that illegal use of force/
Or
Do you think that Derek Chauvin was correct in doing his job on GEORGE FLOYD?
Ron, the quetion is, "why do you propagate the divisionism of 'US against THEM'?"

Steve Williams
Talking about putting words in the mouth's of others.
1. This is what ROBERTPOWELL said: "STOP deaCON lunacy of trying to rationalize US against THEM, cause THEM is US...."
First OFF Steve, Do you see a question mark in the words of ROBERTPOWELL?
This is a request asking me to stop, something he feels is a problem.
You on the other hand don't publicly talk to the man anyway and now you think you have experience enough to put words in his mouth, who do you think you are Steve?
Are you feeling some kind of "POWER" that makes you feel YOU can put words in the mouth of that man here on Black In America? 'INTERESTING.'
YOU can't explain why you believed in "THE BIG LIE" and now you feel you can speak for ROBERTPOWELL, that POWER must make you feel superior or something?
Ron, Robert and I talk to each other publicly, not behind your back. That's the answer to your implied question above, where you say, "You on the other hand don't publicly talk to the man anyway." I didn't need to see a question mark to know you had a question. When Robert said, "..deaCON.... STOP deaCON lunacy of trying to rationalize US against THEM, cause THEM is US...." I likewise heard a question, because you let the charge stand without comment.
ROBERTPOWELL, This is the conversation myself and Steve were having but instead of coming to you and ask you what is that, is that a form of a question or a command: "..STOP deaCON lunacy of trying to rationalize US vs THEM, cause THEM is US-USA Families want order,"
What I notice then STEVE was putting words in your mouth. Did you notice that ROBERTPOWELL?
ROBERTPOWELL, YOUR WORDS: ..STOP deaCON lunacy of trying to rationalize US vs THEM, cause THEM is US-USA Families want order
Are you making a Statement or Asking me a Question?
