Sign at George Floyd Square gives list of special orders for white visitors
The square where George Floyd was murdered by ex-Minnesota cop Derek Chauvin now has a sign with special rules for white people.
The placard at the entrance of George Floyd Square in Minnesota calls it “a sacred space for community, public grief, and protest,” telling visitors to “honor the space as a place to connect and grieve as caring humans.”
But most of the instructions are listed under five orders “for white people in particular.”
“Decenter yourself and come to listen, learn, mourn, and witness,” the first bullet points reads, adding, “Remember you are here to support, not to be supported.”

The new, caring, loving America... brought to you by.. liberals!!!
@earl-of-trumps saidGood advice for all of us... including you.
Decenter yourself and come to listen, learn, mourn, and witness...
@earl-of-trumps saidEven the right-wing NY Post agrees Chauvin murdered Floyd.

We can finally put this "unfair trial" BS to rest.
@earl-of-trumps saidDo we know who put it up?

If it was a government official, it's unconstitutional and grounds for a civil rights lawsuit under 42 USC Section 1983 (if someone can show damages from it).
If it was just a private person, it's just graffiti. Who gives a damn?
@vivify saidVivify, I never lamented the verdict. I thought it would be manslaughter, I was wrong.
Even the right-wing NY Post agrees Chauvin murdered Floyd.

And I don't care because penalties for murder are so weak that what he gets for murder is what
he would *deserve* for manslaughter. It's all good, viv. Except your sis, who still is wearing combat boots.
@shavixmir saidI tell people that I grew up under the tail end of separate but equal, with Jim Crow, when Rosa Parks
I do find it worrying that skin colour is becoming more of an issue instead of less.
It’s not going to end well.
refused to get out of her seat... all that stuff. And racism is worse today than I have ever seen it in my life. Horrible.
And the liberal left hypocrites are pushing to return to separate but equal like maniacs. Back to separate worlds.
@sh76 saidsh76, the point being, people already think it is Ok to express these thoughts publicly and not expect to face any blowback.

To address your question, would you like to try and take down that notice and find out? Talk about a no-win situation.
@earl-of-trumps saidThat comment was more for the conservatives who act like Chauvin was the victim.

And you had a 28 yr old grandma.
@shavixmir saidI disagree. Skin color is an old isdue, but libs continue to make it a seeming issue. So sad, the libs on the forum are all in.

So sad.
@handyandy saidGood one handy. 5 stars
That's what King George said about the Declaration of Independence.
@earl-of-trumps saidSeparate but equal. A myth. And quite impossible anyway.

@earl-of-trumps saidI'd probably just ignore it or stay away from the park.

I don't think I'd be naturally inclined to do anything too offensive anyway, so I'm not too worried.
Do I agree with you that the statement is offensive? Yes.
Am I going to get worked up every time someone says something I think is idiocy? No.
That placard is pretty stupid, but I don't know if it's among the five stupidest things I've seen today.
