President Donald Trump reached back to the Civil Rights era to quote an alleged racist former Miami police chief.
“This shouldn’t be ‘normal’ in 2020 America,” Obama wrote in a statement regarding the death of Floyd, an African American Minneapolis resident, and the ensuing protests where a few citizens have resorted to looting stores and burning buildings.
Meanwhile, as tempers continue to flare in the aftermath of Floyd’s death, Trump tweeted a quote first issued in 1967 by Miami, Fla., Police Chief Walter Headley.
Enola Aird, Esq., founder, and president of Community Healing Network (CHN), added that the world once again looks on in fury and condemnation at the killing of Floyd by police.
“The haunting question we must ask is: If Floyd had been white, would that police officer have continued to put his knee on Floyd’s neck after hearing him say he couldn’t breathe?
