Dan Bongino: No One Disagreed About What Happened To Mr. Floyd So Why Are People Stoking the Flames?
EXCERPT:
BONGINO: "Steve, I’m genuinely worried where we are going with this. This anti-police fomenting, festering attitude that is now exploding, I don’t know where the general population of the United States thinks this is going to go, where collectively you think this is going to lead. Granted, the overwhelming number of Americans back our police officers. But do you understand there is this paper thin line between mass chaos and civility. I mean paper thin, measured in millimeters. You got a taste over the last week about how thin that is. You got a taste of that chaos. Are you really sure some of these people, these companies now, I've seen all kinds of corporate statements out implying somehow — again, my beef with the NYPD police commissioner is not that he said those things, it’s that you are implying that somehow the police department have some mass problem like they are systemically racist police departments? That’s just not true. Steve, there was a moment here, as I said, with George Floyd, many times on this show in the past week, there was a moment of collective unity with what happened with George Floyd. I don’t have one police officer friend — and believe me, I have many — not one who said to me that was an appropriate use of force. Not one. So I don’t know why people are sowing division now. It's almost as if they’re politically advantaged by it. And you should be asking questions about all of this. No one disagreed about what happened to Mr. Floyd. Nobody. So why are people stoking the flames?"
