Remember what a busy day President Joe Biden had when the Transgender Day of Visibility fell on Easter Sunday? He had to juggle the two as if they were equivalent. As our own Doug Powers reported earlier, Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey was ratioed into the sun for posting five times about the sixth anniversary of the death of George Floyd before remembering to slap up a picture of a flag and remind that it's also Memorial Day.
It didn't stop there, though. Frey made sure the City of Minneapolis posted a photo of beautiful George Floyd Square on Memorial Day and reminded people to gather, be with community, and honor Floyd's life. We'll be gathering today, but not for Floyd. We have priorities.
Today we remember George Floyd. pic.twitter.com/GYP27DF0DB

This is an insult to every Gold Star family. Truly delusional & disgusting post today of all days.

For reference, they did this ON MEMORIAL DAY and their X feed otherwise makes no reference to our brave war dead.

It is simply impossible for Minneapolis to get any more loathsome.

How about honoring the service members who gave their lives so that Floyd could be a piece of shit drug addict.

Consider the inequality of celebrating a known criminal over the members of our military that died to defend your right to look like complete douche canoes on the internet.

Absolute buffoonery

Question for you, @CityMinneapolis - Can you provide two or three examples of Floyd's lifetime accomplishments to honor that did not involve law enforcement or courts or assault or robbery or drugs?
Honoring his life of crime. You guys are really special. 🤪

No thanks I'll celebrate the sacrifice of over a million Americans for the cause of freedom over a drug addict. Thanks

Absolutely disgusting to post this on Memorial Day, when we should be remembering real heros.

What is a city supposed to do when Memorial Day happens to fall on George Floyd Day? Why, gather together as a community and honor Floyd's life.
