Meek Mill & Ice Cube Speaks On Video Of Cop Suffocating Man To Death By Kneeling On His Neck

The internet went wild after video footage of the death of George Floyd surfaced online and even led to protest on the inhumane killing of the Black man. George’s killing at the hands of Minneapolis Police, has gone viral since the early hours of the day.

People are seeking for justice over the murder, Devin Chauvin, the officer who killed Floyd, and Tou Thao, who stood by without objecting, are also called out to face the consequences of their actions.

This isn’t the first time such will happen, It’s been going on for decades, and the worst part is that it’s uncommon that those police officers are held accountable for their actions. Public figures have taken to social media to call out the justice system including Meek Mill who quoted a tweet from Common.

You deserved your breath, your dignity, your life. Not to die in the street, murdered by a white cop’s knee on your neck. You deserve our tears, our prayers, our rage, our action. We must act – for you – and for all of those were no cameras are present. We must. #GeorgeFloyd pic.twitter.com/JeMNUtkXv6

“After all these videos of cops beating us like slaves we still don’t have no protection… nobody haven’t issued a order for the police to stop killing us! Is that not possible? Or they just saying protect yourself???” He penned.

In a follow up tweet, Meek wrote: “it’s really not healthy to see white cops killing black men … it’s send a flare of anger and hatred to the brain!”

Ice Cube also shared his aggressive reaction to the issue. “How long will we go for Blue on Black Crime before we strike back???” He tweeted. “Anybody coming at me for what I said ain’t ready to do shit,” he added in a separate tweet.
