Of course it's about a lot more than George Floyd; he was just the latest and most undeniable of a long string of racist policing. People never had a chance to calm down from Breonna Taylor's murder or Ahmaud Arbery or that woman who tried to get police to attack a man in Central Park because he was black, the day before the murder of Floyd.
The protests have been greatly enhanced and made far stronger by the ridiculous amount of police violence. Without that, and without the continued racist action of the Minneapolis police, DA, and even medical examiner.
Ferguson wasn't that long ago, and everything is worse since then. I'm not surprised that it's this big.
