The 2 Lawyers, the Anti-Police Protests and the Molotov Cocktail Attack

The day before he went out to protest, Colinford Mattis, 32, an Ivy-educated corporate lawyer in Brooklyn, chatted for over an hour on the phone with a close high school friend. They discussed George Floyd’s death as just “another example of an unarmed black person being killed,” the friend said, but they talked about grocery shopping and YouTube videos as well.

That is very strange. I think the article is being factual; it certainly reads that way. However, I cannot wrap my mind around it.

The two people were arrested and charged for their crime. Can't argue with that. Now, in no way as a justification for their actions, watching that video, with Floyd pleading for his life ,over and over, is extremely unsettling. It has provoke worldwide reaction. I can see how it could so up set someone that they lost it, and committed a felony. Again, not a justification for their actions.
