Want to be the next George Floyd? All you have to do is commit "suicide by cop" for your very important cause. We have plenty of whackos popping off at schools, churches, synagogues and other soft targets, but their fame is fleeting and no Democrats are kneeling before their gold coffins in the Capitol Rotunda.
There is one problem: Someone named Renee Good who was unknown until a week ago has the inside track for pontification. The good news is that facts may show she was too much an aggressor and less a victim so you may still have this chance to go down in history. Just provoke, threaten and then impede federal police from carrying out their lawful duties and hope for the best. Any cop will do but ICE is preferred. Sorry I won’t be attending your funeral.
And yes folks, this is satire.
