“hi, my name is _____ and I am a resident of ____. i'm calling on behalf of the George Floyd case. i'm calling for the prosecution of Derek Chauvin and his partner Tou Thao, as well as officer J. Alexander Kueng, and Thomas Lane to the fullest extent of the law and that you will not rest until that happens. i am aware that all 4 officers have been placed under arrest and have been charged. now they need to be convicted. George Floyd was arrested under an implied, non-violent crime and there is video proof that he never resisted arrest. the approach that the officers chose to take was one that resulted in murder and must not be taken lightly.
