'Without Apologizing?': Nancy Pelosi Backtracks After Being Blasted for Thanking George Floyd for 'Sacrificing' His Life for Justice

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi came under fire Tuesday evening after speaking on the guilty verdict in Derek Chauvin murder trial. The 81-year-old delivered a speech many online users felt was offensive and poorly worded.

In what appeared to be an attempt at highlighting the outpouring of support that followed in the wake of George Floyd's tragic death at the hand of the former Minneapolis police officer, Pelosi instead said, "Thank you, George Floyd, for sacrificing your life for justice."

"For being there to call out to your mom how heartbreaking was that?" she continued. "Call out to your mom, 'I can't breathe.' But because of you, thousands, millions of people around the world who came out for justice, your name will always be synonymous with justice," she said. Speaker Pelosi's remarks angered many who believed she characterized Floyd's death as voluntary. Several people took to their social media platforms to denounce the politician and her remarks.

One Twitter user wrote, "No. This is not it. Black people are not sacrificial lambs. He was killed because of injustice not as a symbol of anything." They added, "He was a human. A man. A father. A brother. Let's not do this."
Love it when libs chew on their own.

They should realize that Pelosi never apologizes because in her alcohol addled brain she has never done anything wrong.

Asinine. I'm going to assume there are no self-defense laws in the UK and you are pretty much at the whim of the criminal.

Right. Even ones with draconian immediate consequences, like Saudi Arabia. Of course the number of crimes becomes far more rare and infrequent.

Uk had a mandatory knife turn in a few years back. Basically if a knife is longer than 5 inches I think, it can't have a pointed end.

A few weeks in somebody breaks into the drop off boxes and steals all of them.

She could probably do a more compassionate job as Speaker than Nancy has.

Title should read "In a moment of rare honesty, Nancy reveals her real feelings toward the black community as pawns in her pursuit for power. Fortunately she stopped short of admitting the more they die, the more powerful I get."
