The other 3 police officers, being complicit in the death/killing of George Floyd.





What monumental difference in outcome, would it have made [to George Floyd],
if Thomas Lane, Tou Thao, and J Alexander Kueng
had chosen to berate and perhaps, even if they had chosen to verbally, and strongly warn Derek Chauvin that what he was doing was wrong, because it looked dangerous ?

Instead, we know that those 3 police officers, simply watched [and we must assume condoned] what Derek Chauvin was doing, to George Floyd ?

QUESTION;
Why didn't those 3 police officers choose to intervene, or even, to openly object, to what was occurring ?

QUESTION;
Didn't they recognise, that something very wrong was obviously happening, in front of their eyes ?





And what about that popular social meme, of this age ?


"If you see something, say something!"


Why are so many of us in this age [this PC and Virtue Signalling age?],          so, so reluctant to 'do the right thing', and to openly and publicly speak out,
when the 'small quiet voice' of our conscience is telling us,
that we are WITNESSING something occurring, which is wrong and evil ?




Scripture identifies, 'being evil',      also,      as witnessing evil, and saying nothing.

'Salt', and 'Light'.

Revelation 21:7
He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
8  But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.


Isaiah 59:4
None calleth for justice, nor any pleadeth for truth: they trust in vanity, and speak lies; they conceive mischief, and bring forth iniquity.

I think the general attitude of cops, like military explains it.
