The FBI is investigating the death of George Floyd, black man who was pinned on the neck by a police officer and later died in custody. Minnesota’s Attorney General Keith Ellison joins The Beat with Ari Melber’s breaking coverage on the latest from the FBI and the protests. While the officers involved have yet to be charged, Ellison argues a “quick arrest” might “make people feel better about justice” it is “important” for investigators to “take the time to make sure that these charges, if they are brought forward, stick.

    John is a troll. As such he is easy to ignore. But John is also a Bajan from one of the wealthiest extended families on the island. He used to be clever and well educated. His life has had its challenges… his career never recovered after Intel closed up shop and this has left him homicidally bitter. He channels his rage at the failure he has made of his life into his racism. It is a sad story, but I have no compassion for him at all, because with his immense privilege he could easily become a useful member of society instead of sitting behind his keyboard being a racist troll.

    What the shirt you going do but go on the internet and look for 4 years backwards empty gasoline cans to throw on a raging out of control fire.

    please please when you posting make sure you post up to date news. this is about three times in the last the three months I have seen you posting internet items and posting them like it something that is now happening when infact there are old new

    Pleases please remember to check the dates … fool…… it just that simple …. check the f…… dates and read the article before posting.

    As a leader of debrainwashing the slaves your are failing. Your posting of outdate info as if they are now happening isn’t much different from the dishonest politics.

    you may have the last word !

    @David, there has been some media commentary re ur remark that “The wife of the racist policeman filed for divorce.”

    Considering the nature of personal relationships and the drip, drip pain and pleasure they endure this act should truly be examined carefully …

    … her act appears to be as much about protecting her ‘brand’ as it is about a sudden realization that the man to whom she has been married for 10 years (according to reports) is only now a racist capable of a racially motivated killing.

    Divorce is never such a knee jerk reaction… so maybe she was already primed to pull the plug and this was the final spark leading to the ‘quick’ action.

    So one can only marvel at this particular turn of events…

    But exactly what it says relative to this case is lost on me!

    US and UK past and current and future elections and current protests about Governments are essentially about the same thing

    Do you want racists whites in Power to rule over you

    whites say aye
    versus
    blacks say nay

    “when the looting starts the shooting starts” said the cunting PotUS as a call to arms to 2a gun nuts
    Lo and behold a youth got shot and national guard is brought in to fire their booms
    jumping the gun preempting the looting with shooting.

    Looks like orange man’s election campaign has kicked off for the racist white man to hold his power

    Many of you continue to miss the plot. Whites and Blacks well placed in US society agree that there is institutionalized racism. It does not mean that Blacks can be given a pass to not give of their best to act responsibly. What it means though is that the authorities and leaders must do of their best to right the wrongs especially when exposed to the glare of the public.

    @PLT, surely you are being unkind to ur classmate, denigrating the value of your academic certification from Kolig and laughing (at us, maybe) to opine as you did above!

    How can anyone who “used to be clever and well educated” enough to excel at competitive national exams simply never recover “his career” after Intel closed up shop here EONS ago!!

    Come on…. one or two folks I knew from my school days were recruited with Intel when they closed shop and others regrouped and got their act together locally … Yes, not all reclaimed the status or salary scope their Intel gig offered but to be “left … homicidally bitter” seems well beyond the pale for any former Inteler.

    You are glossing over surely this man’s issues… but regardless of what they are they are of HIS making in part or whole and it would be interesting (rhetorically said) to understand WHY they are a validation for his current trolling or racist verbiage!

    Just saying.

    40 million unemployed is obviously gasoline to this “fire”. That is more than the entire population of Canada or Australia. So the “George Floyd case” was only the spark. Rolled up in all these protests is frustration against police brutality, frustration against racism, poor handling of the COVID-19 crisis in the world’s biggest economy, people being horrified by “Trump’s America”. But instead of Trump trying to out this fire, his words, actions and “tweets” just keep pelting sparks in the gasoline…It is just MINDNUMBING how a Head of State is handling this situation. Fires happening countrywide but Trump is willing to let the fires “burn itself out” no matter the fallout. I could imagine supporters of the Republican Party just begging him to just “SHUT UP!!!”

    Yes @Lawson it always is about MONEY which equates to power.

    And doubly yes, until “common sense” kicks in you will view this as a nonsense by Blacks to riot and burn… and as I referenced earlier when your white brethren imposed their power in Oklahoma in ’21 and burned those shops and houses and killed wantonly it was a”nonsense” then too!

    No justice, no peace…

    +++++++++++++++++++++
    Yes I was glossing over John’s issues. The loss of his Intel position was only the first of a series of crises in his life. He and his family have been embroiled in an internecine fight over family money for many decades. It is alleged that it also involves high level corruption on the part of both DLP and BLP governments. John lost a job as UWI lecturer as part of the collateral damage from this feud. He was also brutally attacked and beaten almost to death (these filthy rich White ppl doan play). There are likely hundreds of millions of dollars at stake.

    Amazing how Bajan socalled White people continue to rest on the false assuption that somehow their adaptation has meanings of superiority.

    No where else in the world are these mongrels seen in the way they presume yet the notion of superority continues within a crypto racist society made up of 98 percent people of colour.

    The poison of racism will be the end of us.

    We are surprised that the long used canard of the fiction of reverse racism has not been so far trotted out in defense of the indefensible.

    @WARU People are people. Police Officers are people. Police forces comprises different races that FULLY understanding the situation but still have to “do their job”. The WAR is not against the LAW, it is against the maligned application of the LAW by mostly White officers on Black People. The reality is that these ignorant officers are in the minority but their action are pissing off (Black) people worldwide.

    Hello my fellow Bajans, I’m here watching the blacks in the UK march in solidarity with their brothers and sister in the USA. Maybe SPOT ON is part of this movement. This might be the first wave of this new pandemic, we here need not worry, it will not reach us, this I know for sure.

    @DLP-TV, at 9:08AM you have highlighted what some may describe as a ‘perfect storm’ of
    imminent major political catastrophe.

    The key as with any prognostications is to unlock it’s value and that’s the $1,000/hour consultancy: Hard to achieve!

    I suspect that Republicans are ambivalent … Those who want POTUS to shut up are mostly already driven out of national elective politics by him leaving Romney alone… The others want him to continue to gird the crises and ideally bring out the vote (note that California congressional district which just reverted to Repub control after the momentary Dem pickup).

    Absolutely the run-away unemployment, the racial problems, cov19, anger against China etc were packed tight and ready to explode … so this is almost a precursor of what can be expected if Trump wins in November.

    We can get carried away with terms of greatest, most important and so on but come Nov this presidential election is the MOST consequential for the world in my lifetime.

    Anything but a decisive Biden victory (no issues of voting fraud and such BS) will see heavy unrest in US… In 2021 and thus worldwide problems.

    And many of the white US population are gunned up and ready for battle!

    You are the Blogmaster… free to block or delete whatever posts you don’t like. But I post only what is in the public domain about John.

    It is important for people to understand the context within which his White supremacist racism has been cultivated. Money is power in Barbados… old White money is the most powerful of all. It buys politicians with the same ease that you and I buy breakfast cereal. The poison that John spews on to BU every week is not without consequence.

    Gerard Cox? Is there more than one of them? If not, I know the fellow.

    Peter, I agree with David. It is not that I think what he has been through is any excuse (unless the brain damage was his) because I too have had a very turbulent life in many ways and all it left me with is a hot temper in the face of injustice and an inability sometimes to focus. I think though that we are opening a can of worms here. We should address his loony submissions and not his private life. And yes, I say private because it could only be described as public knowledge here on BU if you knew who he was.

    I did not.
