Candace Owens got some serious backlash for her comments about George Floyd, in which she attacked his character and made claims about his alleged criminal past.

Candace Owens' recent comments about how George Floyd was "neither a martyr or a hero" did not sit well with many people, and they're making sure everyone knows why she's a clown. On Wednesday (June 3rd), Candace posted a 15-minute video explaining why she doesn't agree with the supposed narrative that's been pushed about George Floyd, the 46-year-old Black man who was recently killed by former officer Derek Chauvin in Minneapolis.

The Conservative commentator brought up some alleged details about Floyd that are somehow relevant, namely that he was allegedly on fentanyl when he was arrested and that he has an alleged criminal past that includes armed robbery. It appears that the point of her video was to prove that Floyd was no angel, but many Twitter users were rightfully outraged by how insensitive and unnecessary her "message" was.
