change.org - "I can't breathe, officer"

“I can’t breathe.” This was one of the last phrases that George Floyd whispered. He lost his life because a police officer pinned him to the ground while digging his knee into his neck. This violent assault and murder happened in broad daylight and on camera, while onlookers begged the officer to stop. Kellen is demanding charges and accountability for the four police officers involved in this horrific murder. Add your voice to Kellen’s petition to see these officers arrested and charged. Justice for George Floyd 1,601,948 have signed Kellen Sims’s petition. Let’s get to 3,000,000!

George Floyd was murdered by a Minneapolis police officer. George was handcuffed and restrained and being completely cooperative when this all went down. The officer put his knee on George’s neck choking him for minutes on minutes while George screamed that he could not breathe. Bystanders beg for the police officer to take his knee off George’s neck, but the officer didn’t listen and continued to choke him. Not that it would matter at all, but George was not even wanted for a violent crime. A grocery store that he was signing a bad check. We are trying to reach the attention of Mayor Jacob Frey and DA Mike Freeman to beg to have the officers involved in this disgusting situation fired and for charges to be filed immediately. Please help us get justice for George and his family!
