The brutal murder of #GeorgeFloyd by Minneapolis Police Officer Derek Chauvin and the 3 other officers who did nothing to come to his rescue when he expressed he could not breathe, has finally led to a national uprising on a culture of systemic racism and lack of humanity by police departments towards black communities. To add further insult to his family and the black community, Chauvin was only charged with third degree murder, and the other 3 officers have yet to be charged. Please sign this petition for Michael Freeman, of the Minneapolis District Attorney's office, to change the charge for Chauvin to first degree murder, arrest and charge the other three officers with 3rd degree murder.

Inaction is compliance,,that makes its premeditated,, first degree murder for all!
We can't adopt this behaviour on our police, they suppose to help and protect our community.
Justice for George Floyd. What is stronger? The voice of the people, the laws of this country, the morality and ethics of human beings OR the strength of a police union who protects their own even when they’ve just committed an atrocity?
Anonymous I looked at the law in Minnesota and what would stick and their courts would have to change their definitions first on how they view and interpret third degree murder, before that can be applied for the arrest of the 3 police officers.
Must change third degree murder charges to first-degree murder and also need to charge the other three officers as well.
All are muderers, all should be arrested.
It's time for justice! The people are not going to stop until justice is served.

The officers that killed George Floyd should receive the same charges and black man would receive for the same crime. They should receive the capitol murder charges. We the People are tired of seeing bad cops kill black men. We are tired of the injustice blacks face every day, but especially in the legal system. Be on the right side of history and charge them with capitol murder- send the message that this stops now! People can not kill black men and get off just by saying they feared for their lives. This was an extreme case caught on video for the world to see- the WORLD is watching and mourning. Those unnecessary 8 minutes of intentional kneeling, intentional harm can’t be ignored. We the People deserve better and George Floyd deserves justice.
