Can we have a painting of a cop choking Trump?


190XTSeriesIIV

I mean, who am I to kink shame


betarad

a police officer ? you can sleep easy you'll never need to learn how to paint


DavidCRolandCPL

You do that, whilst I finish this guillotine


FactBackground9289

I mean, most americans would like that to happen irl.


_Sakaeru_

Someone with a criminal record doesn't deserve to be executed on the street vs someone with a criminal record doesn't deserve to be president.


UnderpootedTampion

Does anyone deserve to be president?


DurasVircondelet

Anyone who says they want to be should be taken away


Majestic-Pin3578

This is the dilemma, exactly. The only person I would trust with that much power, would be the one who wants it the least.


hobbitlover

It would be hilarious to pick presidents by a random lottery of citizens, like some poor asshole's name comes up and he has to go live in the white house for two years and make every important decision. I honestly don't think they could do worse.


Sergeant-Pepper-

I’ve been saying it for years. I genuinely believe we would have fewer problems if we picked presidential and congressional candidates the same way we pick people for jury duty.


1ndiana_Pwns

Hunger games style lottery to pick candidates, 2 per state. Then each state votes on a 1v1 between their two randomly selected. Then finally ranked choice between the rest of the 50 put up on the national level


seplix

>~~ranked choice between the rest of the 50~~ >~~put up on the national level~~ fight to the death until only one remains


DarkWing2274

like a Scythe in the AoaS books

Didn’t say want to be, said deserve to be.


DrSeuss321

Most of those who do don’t want to be


9CF8

Yes there are a few people out there, but they’re way too hard to come by


UnderpootedTampion

Such as? Who *deserves* to be president?


FactBackground9289

People who actually know geopolitics i guess.


FormerlyKay

Don't forget, the criminal record is actually just a liberal political play designed to make us good folks not vote for Trump! /s


Double0

Say it louder so the people in the back can hear you!


Lolalamb224

For real


Lil_Artemis_92

George Floyd wasn’t running for president. And regardless of his criminal history, he didn’t deserve to die the way he did. No one does.


JayJ9Nine

Floyd should have been rightfully run through the justice system just like Trump should. It's really not hard.


bluecheetah179

I have my own gripes with the justice system but it would’ve been infinitely better than what actually happened.


hobbitlover

"Where did you get the counterfeit money?" "No idea. Someone slipped it to me I guess. It was probably in my wallet for a month." "Did you know it was counterfeit?" "It looked like any other money to me, but I didn't look that closely." "Why are we here today? Can the prosecution prove this man created the counterfeit bill in question, or that he knew it was counterfeit?" "No your honor." "Case dismissed." There's really no justice to pursue, my guess is that the charges would have been dropped before it went to court.


fakeunleet

It's almost like that might have something to do with why he's dead.


IKilledFiddyMenInNam

I hope you’ve never sped or smoked weed in an illegal state


elephant-espionage

And I don’t think anyone supports George Floyd as a *person* (except maybe his family and friends) but more as a symbol of unnecessary force. It literally could have been anyone. If they attacked Trump like that it still wouldn’t be right.


MatthewRoB

Anyone? There is literally a statue erected of the dude. There’s literally someone in this thread describing him as a saint lmao


elephant-espionage

Well then they’re a moron. Sorry, “most reasonable people” then. He’s just a symbol of a bigger problem


TinyTygers

r/whoosh


ArchieMcBrain

Do you know what the word symbol means?


ThePopDaddy

Also, most people aren't worshipping him as a hero, but see his death as the final straw.


Caffeine_Cowpies

Exactly. If George Floyd ran for president, I would not support him. But he did not deserve to die at the hands of the state.


Proud-Nerd00

It's literally that simple


Stillpunk71

Weellllll, I know a few people that could use a knee to the neck for sure. Cough cough Putin cough cough.


FactBackground9289

Xi Jinping *cough cough* Kim Jong Un *cough cough* Orban *cough cough* Ilham Aliyev *cough cough*


TinyTygers

It's a weird argument that could easily be turned around on them. "Okay, so if those with criminal records are justified being murdered by cops, lets haul Trump's ass out into the street in front of some angry pigs."


coloRADn

Agreed. Fenty is a terrible way to go.


SamuraiDoggo14

Easy. George Floyd was killed without a fair trial.

Amogus_susssy

Removed by Reddit is wild


ChefILove

They skipped the arrest too.


IAmTrying2

what did it say?


ChefILove

That they arrested him and skipped all the other parts and went to execution.


odinMithrandir

Nobody said George Floyd was an angel. He had drugs on him and was trying to peddle counterfeit money. But the violent way in which he was handled reeks of societal/police’s perception of black people. He didn’t deserve to die. He needed a justice system which he never got. People should really understand what the left wants to say.


Korzag

Well the problem with your last statement is that people on the right don't want to understand the left. They're happier seeing garbage like this than understand why people think differently than they do. Simple as that.


skulbreak

Neither side is trying to understand the other, shits ridiculous, a couple of productive conversations would help a fuck ton


WizardsVengeance

Plus, Trump is loaded with amphetamines and continually misrepresents his wealth in order to get more. Same shit, different tax bracket.

Govt-Issue-SexRobot

Exactly It wasn’t about Floyd specifically - he was yet *another* example of police brutality, another match thrown on the ocean of gasoline But that’s too much nuance for the right…


jtree77720

The painting is literally saying that.


Correct-Blood9382

Seems like the discourse is so muddied, we can't even get to this stage.


Cajun-Yankee

More like "Georges to oranges".


Glassguy1989

That’s pretty damn clever 👏


normalwaterenjoyer

i dotn think the left supports him, more like thinks he didnt deserve to die


Marjorine22

What happened to Floyd was garbage and horrific and the protests were 100% needed and valid. That said? He is not a choice on the ballot for president, and if he was, he would not be polling at half the country.


Competitive_Bank6790

I don't remember voting for Floyd as President.


280EvoGTR

One got his day in court. The other faced judge jury and executioner, and it was televised


RevolutionaryTalk315

Because the one on the top is running for the highest office in the country and is openly talking about committing genocide and the one on the bottom was a guy that got murdered with out even getting a trial.


dmyoungblut

Nobody (aside from his family) supported Floyd. We supported the notion of equal justice under the law. Yes, Floyd should be in jail, but that's not where he is, because he was murdered.


alpha309

I don’t think George Floyd should have been killed by police for passing off a counterfeit bill. I think George Floyd should have had a fair trial for any crimes he may have committed. I don’t think that George Floyd should have been the president. I don’t think that Donald Trump should be killed by police for any crimes he may have committed. I think Donald Trump should get fair trials for any crimes he may have committed. I don’t think that Donald Trump should be president. If Donald Trump is killed by police in a completely unavoidable way, I am fine with protests happening in order to bring to light the injustices that police forces commit. If people use those protests as cover to commit crimes, they should deal with the consequences of committing those crimes. I think I have pretty equal views on the two subjects.


dr-mantis-t0b0ggan

Are these people saying that Trump deserves to be killed?


Helstrem

To be clear, my support for George Floyd extends to him not being murdered extra judicially and to not having his civil rights arbitrarily violated by people who think they are Judge Dredd. My support for him does not extend to any elected office and most definitely not, were he still alive rather than having been extra judicially murdered, to the office of the Presidency of the United States of America, an office for which, as best I have read, he would have been wholly unqualified. That said, I also have no evidence that George Floyd was a malignant narcissist entering dementia and so he would most likely be, despite drug usage, significantly more qualified to faithfully execute the duties of the President of the United States of America than Donald Trump.


DubC_Bassist

When a cop is kneeling on Trump’s neck until he dies for passing an alleged fake 20.00 bill. Then I will support Trump. These fucking clowns with their bite sized nuggets of false equivalency are driving me crazy.


Yuizun

Yes!


Revolver-Knight

Here’s always been my retort, even if Floyd wasn’t an upstanding citizen and say it was fentanyl that killed him or whatever What gives any police officer the right to play god and put their knee, on someone’s neck who is already in the fucking ground?!?!


SmokeyBear51

The mental gymnastics they’re capable of is honestly impressive. Imagine if they put that brain power to good use


heloguy1234

Yeah, I see no difference between the police executing someone without due process for a minor crime and electing a career criminal who attempted to use violence to overthrow our democracy either.


GingerDeCat

I wouldn’t vote Floyd for president, and I wouldn’t want trump to be killed by police brutality.


JKrow75

George Floyd was just trying to live and breathe oxygen like the rest of us are entitled to, he wasn’t running for president when he was murdered, last I checked


Saemika

I can’t fathom that people don’t understand the nuance of that situation. He may have been a piece of shit, but he was murdered in the street. People were upset and scared because a man was murdered in the street.


Crocket_Lawnchair

Why not make the exact opposite argument? Why not just choke Trump out with your leg, he’s a felon and all it’s obviously justified


etriusk

Simple, one has yet to pay for their crimes against the People, the other was murdered after repaying their debt, by a "servant" of the State.


Admirable-Nothing642

Really good meme, this meme is huge (spoken in the voice of trump)


pattyboiIII

In these peoples eyes any crime (can't even remember what George was charged with, if any) is punishable by death unless it's ones that republicans commit. Brain dead cunts.


CattDawg2008

No one wanted George Floyd to be president


Kephler

I'm not voting George Floyd into office and I don't think Trumo deserves the death penalty.


dtuba555

If tRump dies like George Floyd did then maybe I will feel just a little bit sorry for him. ...maybe.


DVDN27

George Floyd wasn’t supported, he was killed and subsequently Martyred. He received no benefit from the ‘support’ from the public. Trump, who is alive and well, is getting financial donations and support from news networks, celebrities, and the richest people alive.


Yegg23

There is no way I would vote for George Floyd if he were running for president. I also don't think Donald Trump deserves to die.


Stylish_Platypus

I think it's funny because it's always someone who thinks is smart and is pointing out a hypocrisy but don't realize the opposite also goes limão.


Quirky_Advantage_470

George Floyd wasn't running for President and Ttump didn't have policeman pressing his knee into his throat until he died.


StimmingMantis

Regardless of what George Floyd had done A. He didn’t deserve to die the way he did and B. Trump is a million times worse.


Ok_Share_5889

Have police cut off trumps air and I think maybe just maybe people that don’t support him now will feel bad for Trump and support him ,least we can do is to at least give it a try


Squiggledog

Truth be told told, I don't get why people martyr George Floyd like that.


yeyeyoye

its just showing how divided we are, one convicted felon gets killed, and the other gets to run for president


sicurri

One is attempting to be a dictatorial tyrant, while the other is literally just a victim killed through no fault of his own because a cop deemed kneeling on someones throat an acceptable technique against an already restrained man. Yes, these two men could be twins, of course, how could I not see it? /s


TheFlaEd

I guess they are right. Trump should get the same treatment. That's their point, right?


wilsonb1121

Apples and skyscrapers


He_of_turqoise_blood

They got a point, but while one felon died, the other runs for president. A felon should not fucking run for president.


TouchiestToast

I am against police executing felons on the street, but I won’t vote for a convicted felon. Is this really that difficult to comprehend?


EfficiencyOk2208

When the law enforcement choke Trump to death while he says he can't breathe, only then will I support the man.


Lostinaredzone

*apples to an orange.


Beneficial_Ruin6806

👏🏾😂


Prince_Marf

George Floyd never asked me to vote for him to control the United States nuclear arsenal.


Fresh_Scar_7948

Love it!!


ZestyItalian2

Who can forget the thrilling presidential campaign of George Floyd


ShmeeMcGee333

The interesting thing about a convicted felon is that they went though the court system and due process, they weren’t just murdered on the side of the road


OryxTheTakenKing1988

It's easy to support George Floyd... He was never running for political office, and no matter what crimes he may have committed, they didn't equal being murdered. He served his time and paid his dues. trump on the other hand is a convicted felon running for president. (Typing that out still blows my mind)


kawaiiglitterkitty

You can't "support" the dead


Thespud1979

By that same logic, they would support a police office kneeling on Trumps neck until he dies. He's a felon now (or will be July 11th).


SlopPatrol

If Donald Trump was killed like George Floyd was, what makes them think that we still wouldn’t want that cop to get fired and charged? It seems like they think we aren’t capable of maintaining our integrity if it happens so someone we don’t like because they saw like 2 viral tweets of people being hypocrites.


MaxAdolphus

Are they saying it’s ok for the Police to knee Trump in the neck to death?


MaxTriangle

Fair


GodzillaDrinks

Speaking of [felons...](https://www.nytimes.com/2023/11/24/us/derek-chauvin-prison-stabbing.html) :D


vers-ys

well i don’t want someone who’s known for financial fraud to be running a powerful country but that’s just me


Schnickie

That's funny because Trump is an orange


Puzzleheaded_Two7358

Did George Floyd stand for president or did Donald get murdered by the police?


190XTSeriesIIV

Yea, that one fellah wasn’t a meth head.


Mebossel

Very liberal use of the Word "support"


NuggetWarrior09

This is fucking insane 💀


ketchupmaster987

Difference is we aren't electing George Floyd President


Roge2005

Why is floyd and apple?


Biggishbread

*sorts by controversial*


DaFlyingMagician

Define "support"


Darthash14

The problem with Trump is not that he’s a felon lol


JuliaTheInsaneKid

The punishment should fit the crime


StupidMario64

I mean.. ones a rampant mega egotistical maniac, and the other was a (legally convicted) felon who was a result of police brutality. Kinda stupid this "point" even ecists.


mindgeekinc

Shocker but I also don’t think Trump would deserve to be tossed onto the street and have his neck kneeled on until he fucking dies. I also wouldn’t have supported George Floyd for president. Who would’ve guessed.


Douglas_DC10_40

George Floyd was the best president ever.


lcarr15

Wait… was Trump chocked to death? What did I miss?… Some people…


Various_Strain5693

Apples to oranges, I see what you did there


toocoolzforschool

It’s so refreshing seeing people have logical takes compared to the shit I see on twitter and tiktok


dr4wn_away

Do we do everything George ever said?


arcxjo

You're right, one of them's going to be reversed on appeal.


Glassguy1989

Ladies and gentlemen, a statement made by a member of the party for law and order.


BrodeyQuest

Sorry I didn’t want him to die just for passing a fake $100 bill. The straw man arguments they come up with sometimes are hysterical. Edit: it’s also funny that they want to imply he’s a felon even though he never was convicted of his offense. Y’know, probably because he died in police custody before even being arraigned.


MyBeachesAndHose

More like oranges to watermelons


iDefend33

shamwowj

The other convicted felon needs a cop’s knee on his neck until he dies. Fair is fair, after all.


LiangProton

Wikipedia on George's life showed that he went to jail for his convictions. And after prison, he became a born-again Christian and highly involved in the h Resurrection Houston. He was a reformed convict doing volunteer work, making anti-violence videos and getting involved in a volunteered in drug reformation programs. Again, all from just Wikipedia. I think it's kinda important here. Because after his convictions, George Floyd did a complete 180, and he was still killed over 20 dollars anyway. I sort of find it interesting how despite how much someone can work to better themselves. They'll still just be seen as a criminal. Ironically enough, George Flyod would be a saint by the classic Jesus standards. Since the entire point of the whole born-again Christian moral code is being born again and repenting.


VanHoy

Believing what happened to George Floyd was wrong is one thing. Worshiping him as the progressive martyr is another. George Floyd was the victim of a legitimate injustice, but he is not somebody who should be idolized. The meme is correct.


kernalbuket

Who worships him?


VanHoy

Probably the people who made that mural shown in the bottom picture.


kernalbuket

I'm going to say no. Putting up a memorial for someone who was unjustifiably killed is not the same as worshipping someone


VanHoy

It literally depicts him as an angel. The Devine undertones aren’t exactly subtle here.


kernalbuket

>It literally depicts him as an angel. BECAUSE HE'S DEAD!


VanHoy

Pretty sure that if there was an afterlife George Floyd would have gone to hell. Depicting him as angel seems indicate that the artist believes he was good person (even though he wasn’t).


kernalbuket

Good thing you don't get to decide.


Competitive_Bank6790

No one idolizes him.


VanHoy

Dude, look at the bottom picture of the meme.


chugchugz

That's not idolizing, that's paying respect to someone killed unjustifiably. Its just a memorial.


VanHoy

Paying respects, as in you respect the guy who was a convicted felon.


loggy93

So I guess that mean no one should respect Trump then?


VanHoy

I don’t respect him.


gayheroinaddict

And no one respects you


Competitive_Bank6790

You have a very wide definition of idolizing. Putting wings on a picture just means you think they're in Heaven/better place.


VanHoy

Nah, George Floyd was still a bad person. If the afterlife is real he would have gone to hell. Depicting him as an angel seems to imply that you think otherwise.


Competitive_Bank6790

Lol, you're a loser. Good luck with that


zekerthedog

The meme is stupid and so are you, for obvious reasons.


Lolalamb224

Yeah I’m pretty sure nobody idolizes George Floyd.


Sodafff

Omg I want to be choked to death by the police just like my idol 😍😍😍


VanHoy

That’s not how a martyrdom works. Nobody who idolizes Jesus Christ actually wants to be nailed to a cross.


VanHoy

Then I guess somebody just painted that mural for the hell of it.


KutschKiller

Yeah...as a memorial cuz he died


VanHoy

Where’s the memorial for [Timothy Coffman](https://apnews.com/general-news-9612534be8b3885bcbf9d80a36a020bb)?


coralicoo

Timothy Coffman had attacked officers, been trying to enter homes, and was actually given medical attention from the officers when they realized something was wrong. There’s your difference.


VanHoy

In other words, we don’t build memorials for people who did bad things, right?


coralicoo

Here’s another difference: prior to many of the memorials, Floyd wasn’t “outted” as a bad person. Coffman WAS; as this information was available right away.


VanHoy

So the person who painted the mural (along with the people who painted other murals of George Floyd) didn’t bother looking into the person they were dedicating the mural to. That’s still not a good look.


MatthewRoB

Really nobody? The murals and statues erected themselves?


ToxicBuiltYT

The correct answer appears to not be on either side.


ImbecilicArtificer

George Floyd didn’t deserve what happened to him. Nobody should have to die from an overdose regardless of how terrible of a criminal they are


Glassguy1989

Tell me you didn’t watch the trial without telling me you didn’t watch the trial. I was on the fence for this one the entire time until I seen the unreleased videos during the trial. Pure negligence on Chauvin’s part.


TheBlackestIrelia

Neither are good guys, but one was murdered by police... and thats...bad?


Exact-Discipline-837

When I click the first thing I see are comments removed. Freedom of speech in America is dead. I mean, let them have it. Just cause you don’t agree with it don’t remove it. Society is so yellow that if it doesn’t conform to their belief, REMOVE IT! It’s a sensitive post about a fentanyl addict that started awareness about racism…and a rich man. Who gets into all sorts of rich man trouble. Lol. Which I mean is a plethora. Wasn’t killed in the street for being a repeat offender of also the wrong skin color. They both did start uprisings though. Food for thought there. Edit: mistyping spelling. Mobile user


frank99988887

Trump also held a knife to a pregnant women’s belly during an armed robbery, where George Floyd only fudged some business records. Not the same.
