He said something along the lines of how there will be justice for Floyd.
He said something along the lines of how his death will not have been in vain.
What?
Was Floyd's desire for his life that he would be a matyr for a cause? Was that what he wanted? Did he choose to give up his life for a cause?
What is so f*ck*ng terrible about it is that he wasn't given a choice. He didn't choose to be a matyr. That was something forced on him. That's what's so f*ck*ng tragic.
There is no such thing as justice. He life was stolen from him and it isn't the sort of thing that can be given back.
There is no justice for that.
There is only prevention of re-offending.
But there is no putting it right.
What has been done cannot be undone.
