Do you think theses four lives mattered? Trayvon Martin --- He was accused in court of using a sidewalk as a weapon, just before his blood was splattered across it.

George Floyd --- Trying to use a fake $20 bill (which he may not have known it was fake) turned into his death. A white officer pressed his knee down on George Floyd's neck, stopping the flow of blood to his brain. Another officer was pinning his knees to the ground. Another officer was pinning his feet to the ground and the last officer was standing there with his hands in his pockets watching Floyd suffer. George Floyd did nothing wrong to the point where the 4 white officers had to use that much force. He never resisted arrest. His life mattered just like Trayvon Martin's.

Breonna Taylor --- She was sleeping in her home, when officers came in the home with a so-called search warrant or whatever, and a man grabbed his gun because he thought somebody was breaking in, and they shot in the home, an excessive amount of times, and killed Breonna Taylor. She did absolutely nothing. Her life mattered.

Ahmaud Arbery --- He went on a hog for exercise, and 2 white men thought he looked like a robbery suspect. So they grabbed their guns and followed him. Ahmaud acted in self-defense. He knew nothing of these 2 men and was just minding his own business. Unfortunately, Ahmaud was shot and killed. One, it's not those 2 men's jobs to solve criminal cases. Second, even if he was a robbery suspect, leave that to the cops to handle. Third, they thought he was guilty of something because of the color of his skin. His life mattered.
