    Ahmaud Arbery and George Floyd and Rayshard Brooks were all career criminals but no one is allowed to mention these facts. "Although the priest argued
    for forgiveness, the message was lost on students." Begging for
    "forgiveness" when the only sin he committed was telling the truth... ------------------------------------------------------------
    MIT chaplain forced to resign after citing George Floyd’s rap sheet to students

    The Archdiocese of Boston forced Daniel Moloney to resign from his chaplain role at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology after students and alumni complained that Moloney brought up George Floyd’s past criminal history in
    an email to students.

    Although Moloney, a Catholic priest, was making an argument that Floyd’s
    past should not justify his death, the fact that he brought up Floyd’s rap sheet at all prompted some to protest the chaplain’s message to campus officials and file bias complaints over it.

    “George Floyd was killed by a police officer, and shouldn’t have been,” Moloney wrote in his June 7 email to the Tech Catholic Community, a group of Catholic students on campus.

    “He had not lived a virtuous life. He was convicted of several crimes, including armed robbery, which he seems to have committed to feed his drug habit. And he was high on drugs at the time of his arrest. But we do not
    kill such people. He committed sins, but we root for sinners to change their lives and convert to the Gospel,” the priest wrote.

    “ … In the wake of George Floyd’s death, most people in the country have framed this as an act of racism. I don’t think we know that. Many people
    have claimed that racism is major problem in police forces. I don’t think we know that.”
