The George Floyd protests are the largest protests in all of human history. Anywhere between 15 and 26 million people in the US and countless others across 60 different countries participated. 96.3% of the 7,305 demonstrations identified by the Nonviolent Action Lab and Crowd Counting Consortium involved no injuries and no property damage

Even if you wanna weasel your way out of this and just say it's just "a contributing factor" (literally everything could be) how could you possibly even tie those things together?

Can you explain what you mean? I’m can’t see what you are referring to at all and must be missing something huge.

George Floyd’s toxicology report taken after his death indicated fentanyl (and methamphetamine, and THC).
