Why are people protesting and rioting in the midst of the Covid-19 crisis?

I think that's probably not true.

@oralloy,
It is true. Watch CHRISTIAN TV.

@Rebelofnj,
May I ask why?

@JGoldman10,
Personally, I would rather talk to local religious leaders and people I respect before I watch Christian TV for guidance.

@JGoldman10,
I decline to explain because they are deeply personal to me.

Plus, my interpretation of the verses is different from your interpretation.

@Rebelofnj,
I respect my current pastor and ex-pastor, even though my current pastor is out-of-state and my ex-pastor lives downstate from me.

There are many televangelists and other ministry leaders on Christian TV these days talking about the End Times/Last Days. They've been preaching about it since the '80s.

People have been claiming it’s the end of the World since the concept was first understood.

There’s a poster on A2K who claims that Christ has been reborn as the Spirit of Ama in the Philippines. He keeps claiming WW3 might happen on a particular. When said date comes and goes he just claims to have got the dates wrong and it’s next year.

He’s been doing this for a long time.

As for Christian TV those hucksters are going to tell the credulous that the end of the World is just around the corner and if they want to be part of the rapture they need to send them all their money right away.

They’re not concerned with saving souls, they just want your money.

@izzythepush,
Jimmy Swaggart is not a "huckster".

@JGoldman10,
He’s about as Hucksterish as you can get. I’m sure he’ll have no problems cashing the cheque in your mum’s name.

Why don’t you send it to him?

Was George Floyd's family financially compensated for his murder? They should have been. I know his family started a GoFundMe campaign to raise money for his funeral.

@JGoldman10,
Floyd Mayweather is paying for them. It was quite a big news story, covered by the news sites other posters have advised you to use.

Probably not yet. But they will be.

I watched a surveillance video that recorded what happened to Floyd here:

He was not resisting arrest as the cops claimed.

@JGoldman10,
At 5 minutes and 20 seconds, almost at the end of the video, he drops to the ground instead of getting into the back of the police car.

@oralloy,
If Floyd did resist arrest then he was foolish. That's the problem with a lot of instances you hear about through the media in which African Americans are wrongfully killed by cops. A majority of the time people have gotten killed because they do not comply with police.

A lot of these people have gotten killed because they want to show their butts to the cops and oppose and/or antagonize the cops some kind of way, instead of humbling themselves and complying with the cops.

That is extremely stupid. The cops are not supposed to shoot unarmed people.

The only instance I can think of in which an African American was wrongfully killed by cops and the person didn't resist arrest was that incident in which a kid was unjustly killed for being in possession of a B.B. gun.

If that had been a White kid he probably wouldn't have gotten killed.

The boy was killed because someone falsely reported to the police that the kid had a real gun, or something along these lines.

@JGoldman10,
I strongly suggest you Google the name Breonna Taylor.
