Well everyone, it looks like the latest Black Lives Matter martyr has dropped this time in the form

0:11.1

of Jordan Neely, who some people are calling George Floyd 2.0, and what's really interesting

0:16.0

about this particular story is that it actually has progressives arguing that if you're writing public

0:21.5

trends, it like the subway, it's actually your responsibility. You need to be okay with being harassed

0:26.7

and threatened by violent homeless people. Yeah, and if you don't like that happening to you,

but that may change very soon. And so now, of course, considering that Neely was black and the

1:25.2

person that put him into a chokehold, that ultimately killed him was white. People are crying,

1:30.0
