Five Democrat senators knelt during a moment of silence for George Floyd — a black man who recently died in police custody in Minneapolis — on Capitol Hill Friday afternoon.

Sens. Tim Kaine (D-VA), Sherrod Brown (D-OH), Chris Van Hollen (D-MD), Martin Heinrich (D-NM), Michael Bennet (D-CO) knelt during the tribute, which lasted for eight minutes and 46 seconds, the length of time that video showed fired Minneapolis officer Derek Chauvin pressing his knee on Floyd’s neck before he died. Chauvin faces a second-degree murder charge over the incident.

Who said covid19 closed down theaters?

“Today we gather here in solemn reverence to not just mark his tragic death but to give honor to his life,”

Honor him?  He was a common criminal who died tragically.

Ultimately, he was responsible for placing himself in the position of being arrested after a life filled with crime and resisting arrest.

NO HONOR should be given this man.

Instead, these Senate imbeciles should be honoring law enforcement who gave their lives tragically defending citizens against the mob.

They've turned this guy into the "Horst Wessel" of the BLM movement.
