for what? the armed robbery of a pregnant woman ? Guess her life didnt matter much.

[Its-Steven]

Gee, if I held a gun to a pregnant woman's belly while my friends robbed her home I don't think I'd get a mural. Way to go George!

[jimsav]

They need a crop duster filled with paint to Fly-Rite down that mural

[EmmaGrizzlyRose.]

Still waiting for the rest of our lives to matter.

In the meantime Houston had nine shootings in the last 24 hours.

How does a dopefiend get a mural???? Something is really wrong with Anerica

[kittykat]

This is ridiculous! I understand his family is hurting, but he was a criminal and if not for all of the drugs in his system would not be dead right now!

*OF ALL THE PROMINENT, SUCCESSFUL & BRILLIANT BLACK AMERICANS WHO HAVE ACHIEVED ASTOUNDING GOALS, TURNED HEADS, MADE POSITIVE CHANGE & ARE OR WERE TRUE HEROS & ANCHORS TO SOCIETY, HUMANITY & HAVE A STORY OF STRENGTH & HONOR, THIS IS WHO YOU ALL CHOOSE FOR YOUR CHILDREN TO LOOK UP TOO? THIS IS YOUR HERO? THIS IS WHO YOU WANT YOUR CHILDREN TO FOLLOW? YOU ALL ARE FAILING YOURSELF, YOUR CHILDREN & YOUR HISTORY. WHILE SPITTING IN THE FACE OF THOSE WHO HAVE IN FACT BEEN OR ARE PAVING SOLID FOUNDATIONS LEAVING FOOTPRINTS BEHIND FOR YOUR CHILDREN*

How long before this one is struck by lightning?

Congrats on George Floyd for being clean n sober for over a year now

[austing]

And how is this improving the community? Did gun violence go down? Had drop out rate gone down? Nice political move Houston.

[hydjrasierra]

We have become a joke to the modern world, thank you.

[RacesForTheChannel]

Can we discuss the career criminals violent past and history of drug use?

[patrisio]

No fault of Floyd's, but people need to stop the idolatry. Every time someone well known or a celebrity dies, the idolaters come out. No wonder we have so many problems in our society and world.

[louky]

Praising a criminal&drug addict WTF! SMFH

[powerofgrace]

Hopefully it gets struck by lightning too

[queensylvia]

🛐 REPENT & TURN AWAY FROM EVIL. CHRIST IS COMING AGAIN, & NOT AS A BABY! AS KING OF KINGS & LORD OF LORDS!

[kimberlyamerican]

are you kidding me?? Yeah let's keep praising drug addicts let's just do that and guys that beat up and hold guns on pregnant women yay

[RacesForTheChannel]

Why do my comments keep getting deleted and censored? Am I not allowed to share my views on this crap?

[jeffreyshumate]

After all the people that obviously don't want no floyd bullshit on the street. Yeah the people that created this don't want that shit on the street. Yes, it matters what the creators say.
