Died of an overdose

Tho FLOYD's death=egregious=needs justice-IN NO WAY IS THIS MANaSAINT! N2 stop THUGS from becomin somethin THEY R not-GOOD PPL! From Drugs, 2theft, rape, even murder THUGS get caught by law & resist ARREST! PERIOD! MEDIA=ENEMY & placates this ignorance along w/Corporations!

Stay off the fentanyl, kid

George Floyd held a gun to a pregnant woman stomach in a home invasion, he died of an overdose

I would like to think that these companies are serious but that is highly doubtful. They will need a lot of help from the business community, social institutions, State governments, City councils, & the Federal government. It's hard to take them seriously. I'd say it's doubtful.

of course, it's all talk bc it was bullshit, to begin with. democrats want black folks controlled with their head in the 'sand'. how insulting to them to think that somehow they are SO ignorant as to their own situation to notice... wow

No longer about experience, competence, education, or qualifications. It now just racist.

Our community has plenty of role models and Mr Floyd should not be one of them.

Virtue signalling !! Companies should be more concerned about profit !!!

LOVE and hug a thug, the theme of 2020!

No one gives a shit about these criminals and the American people are growing tired of your crap. nfl mlb nba. All of you are going to beg to have your fans back! You're done. To antifa and BLM Don't mistake our kindness for weakness..Trump2020 BackTheBlue LatinosForTrump

Step 1: do a great job. Step 2: do a great job. Step 3: do a great job

FO

The love and hug a thug fest of 2020 continues however nothing will change overall. Major companies simply trying to out woke one another!

Let us not forget George Floyd was a career criminal that needed to be stopped by all means Necessary. It was a good day for everybody one less criminal on the streets

Hopefully part of this includes citizens obeying the Law.

Virtue signaling by weak organizations that fear being canceled. Disgusting. The NFL, NBA, and MLB all fall into this miserable group. Market share in plummeting for all 3. We want sports, not politics.

Why didn’t you do it before? Is this a clever marketing tactic?

Are they going to tell us to donate to ActBlue? Like they have been?

Bitcoin fixes this...

They have to cease their, Generic racism against their own kind, 1st... Totally writing off, or, pre-judging potential clients & customers because of their zip codes!

Nothing will change, major companies all trying to out woke one another.

Can we address the racial inequality of the insane amount of black on white violence in the US each year? Numbers are not racist, and blacks do a disproportionate amount of crime each year against whites in America

Anyone else getting sick of this nonsense yet ?

Claw back the business tax cuts unless there are POC on the Board. Money talks.

How much race-baiting propaganda must we endure from CNBC? Jesus.

Until the rioters come for them too. Pushing the bullshyt, CNBC.

Race isn't biological stupid humans

We the people need a list of companies and firms given money to BLM and not our wounded Vet's.

As a nation we are failing. Something is not right. I remember in the sixties same crap, people were hungry, could not afford housing. Now 2020, after trillions spent, in the same boat. Black communites billions spent, still ghettos and still riots.

When they decide to make a difference related to black on black murder I’ll listen. Until then, it’s just politics

Watch as six black leaders mention things that half witted right wingers will never understand or agree to.

Is CNBC reporting this?

Hey CNBC, since you did not like the first you posted this story and just reposted it So tell me if I am off base. This is what the just of the video. 1. Affirmative Action in Corporate America. 2. 14 Trillion in Reparations 3. Justice system that is quicker to indict police.

This Is Why This Injustice has been going on for 'DECADES'......Cops have 'NEVER' Been Held 'ACCOUNTABLE' for their 'WRONG DOING'.....Clearly some cops, don't need to be COPS....🙏

It Doesn't take a 'DEGREE'..To Know That it's 'OUR' JUSTICE System at 'FAULT'..& It starts with 'ACCOUNTABILITY for whomever is wearing the badge to be 'HELD ACCOUNTABLE' for 'INJUSTICE' ACTS....At this point it's about The Justice system 'HOLDING These cops ACCOUNTABLE...🙏

I want expert, of course non-biased, police protection for all small businesses, which are now having windows smashed, looted, etc. I want any cities with Black people in the criminal system to have Black police officers, chiefs, social workers, teachers. Can't flourish in danger

So the concrete steps are racial hiring quotas and reparations? Yeah, that should really smooth out race relations.

Am baffled CNBC. Could you please provide bullet points of the 'concrete steps'you heard in this video that major companies can follow to lead to lasting change?

🙏

Let's talk about this. “‘The Race Card’” by Mike Green

Why don’t you first list the policy and procedures that NBC, CNBC and all your affiliates do to combat this “crisis”. Ann Curry told me she would love to see it.

George Floyd killed himself with Fentanyl

❤️

Also getting good employees help. I have been thinking the better wages and benefits, the more committed employees are to good service. How can they give good service when they are not treated with the respect, and benefits they deserve. It has to come from the top down.

If you’re ever asking yourself “who’s funding these riots and looting?” It’s corporate America paying guilt ransom money

So tell me if I am off base. This is what the just of the video. 1. Affirmative Action in Corporate America. 2. 14 Trillion in Reparations 3. Justice system that is quicker to initiate officers. Did I get it all CNBC

These black business people worked hard and got ahead. That’s the answer. Hard work. Not equal outcome.

Enough with this nonsense already. Lets wait for the next black felon to be killed by police. It will happen soon enough

Congratulations to george floyd being 60 days sober

Fock George Kirby... There I said it

Really,

Also. There is no systemic black racism in America. The Democrats are using racism (history always repeats it self if no lesson is learned. And here we go again!) to win an election instead of using their brain to come up with sound changes. Disgraceful! And lazy!!

Ridiculous!!! Using Black Americans for left wing pandering. Also, it is an absolute shame regarding Mr Floyd’s death and the officers were wrong but Mr Floyd had so much Fentanyl and other drugs in his system that it’s no wonder he died.

Let's rename it the United States of Floydia. We need to get something that doesn't glorify slavery like America does

Have you guys watched the entire police video yet? Pretty obvious GeorgeFloyd was a junky who was hyperventilating from the start. He needed a straight jacket and EMTs from the beginning. Negligence yes, murder not close. Canonizing a street hoodlum junky.

Let me guess, it includes disregarding merit. Why don't we just federally mandate removing race, gender, and name in job and school applications? 100% qualification based

So much Fake News.

Where have all these companies been for the last year, decade, hundred years? Pure pandering to meet the bandwagon!

if you think these companies care about anything other than money- you're an idiot. more virtue signaling for sales bs.

George Floyd is a drug addict and criminal

Lloyd is a drug addict and criminal

Abolish All Billionaires:

literally, who cares? for-profit companies saying what people want to hear

No one cares. Including CNBC.

ANY OF THESE BLACK MOE FOES STANDING UP OR KNEELING DOWN FOR ME AND MINE?! FAKE!

Why haven’t you covered the leaked body cam footage?

THEY ALL LOOK BLACK! AND IF AN ASIAN WAS UP THERE, YOU KNOW IT WOULD PROBABLY BE A FAKE! NOTICE I HAVE NO ASIAN LIVES MATTER MOB AROUND LOCALLY LER ALONE AROUND THE WORLD!

Yup. All talk no results ⭕️ They love lobbying so much. $1528 per congress CovIDIOTS and BigTECH pay $0 fedtaxes. Gen2k Had enough we are פּלאַןגרייט чарнавікгатовы Entwurffertig draftready 🍻 CyberWAR tradeWAR screw coldWAR2 let’s worldWAR3. End this mayhem ⬛️⚓️🟥🇼🇸🇾🇪

I’m not going to hold me breathe!

YES IT IS!

How? I’d love to know what rights you want that you don’t already have? I’ll wait.......

affirmative blacktion always backfires

Fentanyl kills.

It’s rather not. CNBC is king of virtue signaling meanwhile many of its wealthy paid talking heads took PPP loans

Fk this

Racism is a mindset. We have to wash away the people with a negative mindset before we see change. It's not a physical change.

Obsession.

Major companies care about people. 😂

The only way that black bias is going to be changed is if black people create and maintain the change amongst themselves. White people can’t do it. It’s not their place

It’s all pandering

I dont know that 14 Trillion is the answer, or any amount of money to change.... rather real change that starts with attitudes & perpectives. The way you treat your fellow man. There are so many hateful messages out there from music & movies to bad politicians, It all must change

Of course these so called companies will virtue signal all they want. They will do the same dance they do for climate change and all and hope noone calls them out on their hypocrisy

Mostly just all talks as Chinese proverb said Bad-Habit-Die-Hard undoubtedly!

Consequences of these policies, cops don't want to do their jobs, feel abandoned. 71 percent of DC cops want to quit; violent crime in NYC soars. Murders in NYC increase by 70 percent

Businesses are better at bootstrapping/training than most govts or non-profits. But it has to start early with childcare, school mentoring (esp minority schools), internships, apprenticeships, and local job fairs.

Here’s an idea for corporate America. Pay for education of your workers invest in your workers give them something to be able to build on

It'll all blow over. This new generation of racists will be quashed.

Racial inequality? How does a murder turn into racial inequality? How did it turn into a racial incident? How did it turn into a race war? Everyday black people are killed and its ignored. This horrible tragedy is only these things cause it was white cop black guy.

Getting the government out of the economy, currency and financial markets will solve it; allow individuals to rebuild this economy. But no one wants to do that. So expect it all to get worse.

Tired of their whining and victim mentality - all they want is money, I don’t give a shit about Floyd.

The reform taking place is not right! We need governance to stop causing suffering. We need prevention only policing. We need the end of slavery like upon conviction or to punish crime. We need this first round of reform to end qualified immunity.

Economic inequality and religious beliefs or sectarianism by geographical administration are related to closed society belonging Slavery is as well related to religious sectarianism by geography and a type of relationships a priest and peasants have in economic behavioural terms

Be sure to add a handgun and a pregnant woman's abdomen to your discussions.

A trillion dollar check is not enough. Our country has allowed bigotry to set up shop since Reconstruction’s failure. Those promises were not fulfilled. Until that historical cancer is cut out, any monies will fail. The last 400 yrs is a problem. The last 150 is betrayal.

Lets start with getting good grades in school.....not that hard. Orientals who come to america w zero english skills and no money make it, why - School

It’s all talk. How many years have people complained about this? It’s like the coronavirus in a few months, people will forget and relax and no ones held accountable

major companys are the problem!!!! no the police
