George Floyd's death at the hands of police seemed to mark a turning point in America's race relations, but politics has overtaken the response.

    As someone who used to deal with counterfeit currency, presenting a fake bill is not a crime.

    Did we ever even find out if the bill in question was actually counterfeit?

      It doesn’t matter. It’s only a crime if you know the bill is fake; and the average person doesn’t know that. Running a red light is a worse offense.

        I’d say it matters if the people who cast “summon murderpig” did so on false pretenses.
