Michael Porter Jr. says to 'pray for police officers' involved in George Floyd's death
By Daniel Canova | Fox News

Protesters clash with Minneapolis police after George Floyd’s death
Denver Nuggets rookie Michael Porter Jr. is the latest professional athlete to speak out about the death of George Floyd.

However, Porter Jr. had a different perspective on the situation.
“As much as you pray for George family, gotta also pray for the police officer(s) who were involved in this evil. As hard as it is, pray for them instead of hate them...Pray that God changes their hearts,” Porter wrote.



Porter Jr. also responded to a comment by saying, “All hate will do is cause the same cycle to continue. Only God and love can break [the] cycle and cause real change.”





Floyd died Monday night during an incident with Minneapolis police officers. Video later emerged showing Floyd on the ground with a police officer pressing his knee against his neck. Footage released appeared to show Floyd shouting, “I cannot breathe” and “Don’t kill me.”



The police were reportedly responding to a call that a forged check had been used at a convenience store. The four officers linked to Floyd’s death were fired Tuesday. The FBI also has been called to investigate the incident.


Other athletes across the sports world, including LeBron James and Steph Curry, spoke out on Floyd’s death.

 

[EPDC]

Fuck him and those officers.

Pray for them? FOH.

 

[Quek9]

Fuck him and the family that spawned him.

 

[trstar]

Using the Bible to bow down to white supremacy.

Pray that white folks especially white supremacy ends quickly

 

[Van Allen]

He is right. He is a very thoughtful and spiritual young man. He is principled. And courageous.
The officers will be prosecuted, but we must do better......

 

[gdatruth]

why black ppl gotta be the ones to pray and forgive all the time
i never see it reciprocated

 

[REDLINE]

The only thing I pray for in that situation is that a courageous citizen would’ve shot all four of those cops dead, to save a man’s life.

 

[b_visionary]

Fuck all that

 

[Mr. Met]

No surprise.

His own fiancé has sympathy for the officers, so you know some bible thumping negroes would pray for these beasts.

 

[TENT]

Fuck this fake wanna be deep religious bitch.
I KNOW he out fucking mad whores but when people are killing us he wanna hide under the Bible.
He is a bitch.

The Bible says "there is a time and place for everything". A time to gather stones and a time to throw stones!

 

[Mt. Yukon]

Later for all that. Any and all Haitians, Gullah Geechee, or Lousiana people practicing Vodou, Vodun, Hoodoo... Ask the ancestors and see that some harm comes to them. No idea how it works, but............

 

[mcguyver]

No surprise.

Of course she does, she's white.

 

[kdogg3270]

[Dr. Truth]

As I said In The other thread , fuck this white Jesus worshipping half breed coon.

The reason so many dumb niggas are religious is because Cac demons brainwashed you coward niggas to become docile coons through religion. Put the magical fake heaven in weak niggas brains so they will always forgive the evil of the white devil. Hey you stupid coons,GOD is not some thinking being that gives a flying fuck about you. I hate all you Jesus worshipping fuck niggas

 

[big enos burrnet]

[the artist]

Officer said 'unfortunate' coronavirus didn't kill more black people, gets fired

"As a police officer, we're held to a higher standard than normal civilians," the police chief in Kaplan, Louisiana, said. "So you got to watch what you do, you got to watch what you say."

[Hey Julian!]

[yaBoi]

fuck him

 

[knightmelodic]

Just like the laws they write, the bible and god and jesus aren't for them. They're for us - to bamboozle our minds and keep us hoping for some shit that ain't gonna happen from some imaginary figure in the sky. False hope is a helluva drug.

 

[jack walsh13]

Fuck that pussy!!!

blackballed?
he didnt have to say shit

what other athlete has come sending thoughts and prayers to the cops?
either they are appalled or have nothing to say

i aint even mad at him
i am mad at how conditioned we are to turn the other cheek...yet they keep keep smacking & spitting in our face

 

[playahaitian]

I'm torn

Cause if you CALL yourself a Christian?

This is EXACTLY what you supposed to say

More importantly

PRACTICE

but we as a black people have been asked to endure so much for damn near centuries

And the bible been used as a weapon

By our oppressors and black people on themselves

Its difficult to articulate this properly especially so soon

If he being genuine?

I respect it.

I can't support it fully

But if he means it and is on some lebron level of active in his community so be it.

black ppl are more religious than anyone in the world...where has that gotten us?
in general Haitians are 10X as religious...what has that gotten us? We had to take our shit and we been paying ever since.

at work i was having a convo with a super religious older Haitian woman talking about how fucked up the country is. She said its in God's hands and it will get better. I said yeah if its in his hands Haiti aint gonna be right til Jesus come back. She was really upset later on found out she thought i was mocking her faith. 6 months later after shit in haiti gotten even worse she came and told me yeah i see where you were coming from things always see to go from bad to worse there & even she was starting to lose her faith.

Like I said I understand

I'm religious not as ORGANIZED as I was back in the day but I still worship

so I also understand how faith and community can build you up and make you feel safe and help you through

and the church is ALSO about some REALLY positive life altering things

but yeah...

it can be used to pacify, misinform, confuse, abuse...

All I'm saying is I don't want TRASH this young man for saying pray for these devils...

he aint say forgive or forget or let them go or they aint monsters

he basically said they evil pray for them

don't let THEIR EVIL infect you

problem is?

its WAY too late for that.

And sometimes righteous anger is justified

and even sanctified

I got in a WHOLE lot trouble for this in Sunday school but

God got angry and caused the floods, for Moses for hitting the stone and giving the Hebrews water and NOT properly thanking him FIRST. Jesus was ANGERED by the money lenders.

but why we the only ones always praying?
imo there is a time and place for everything...but we always seem hella quick to forgive, forget or pray

but that same mercy and graciousness is never reciprocated...even when we are the victims.
when we are the victims...he was no angel, wait for the facts, there is more than just the video, fine ppl on both sides, etc

when we get victimized its hugs, prayers and forgiveness. faith & forgiveness shouldnt be a one way street

Black people aren’t the only people praying. We are just outnumbered. The people murdering us pray too.

Pretty much. We need to forgive the people who murdered someone over $20 but god couldn't give the murderers the "insight" needed to not murder?

 

[durham]

Passive Christianity is the worst thing to ever be forced upon and ingested by Black people.

Fuck forgiveness and prayers, these motherfuckers cops deserve to die. They killed a man for fucking sport.

No surprise.

His own fiancé has sympathy for the officers, so you know some bible thumping negroes would pray for these beasts.

Fuck her too

 

[Mrfreddygoodbud]

He is a hundred percent correct

Pray for them...

As you add more fire power to your arsenal
