| Subject: Good stuff: Police pepper-spray leftist protesters for kneeling in road in North Carolina Sun Nov 01, 2020 12:02 am | |
| Police in North Carolina pepper-sprayed dozens of protesters Saturday, including several children, after they knelt on a road to honor George Floyd.
About 200 people participated in a “march to the polls” in Graham, N.C., about 50 miles northwest of Raleigh, the Burlington Times-News reported. Protesters said that cops escorted them throughout the march to the county courthouse.
Once demonstrators arrived at the courthouse, they knelt in silence in the street for 8 minutes and 46 seconds to honor Floyd, according to local NBC affiliate WRAL. Floyd was suffocated by a cop’s knee when he was killed in Minneapolis in May.
Police in Graham, however, were upset that the demonstration backed up traffic around the courthouse and pepper sprayed the protesters toward the end of their silence, the Raleigh News & Observer reported. Among those impacted by the chemical weapons were 11- and 5-year-old children and a woman on a motor wheelchair.
