The Rev. Al Sharpton delivered the eulogy according to Yahoo news.
“Five armed police officers against one unarmed Black man. That’s not (being the police) that’s being a punk,” Sharpton said to a large round of applause from those in attendance.
“It Touched Me When I Heard Tyre Yell Out For His Mother (In His Time Of Death), Just Like George Floyd Did,” Rev. Sharpton Says
Sharpton added: “you better think twice now before you shoot an unarmed man. You better think twice now when you apply a chokehold, like in the case of George Floyd.”
And as for qualified immunity, “your wife would be telling you before you leave for work, ‘behave yourself! You want to be a tough guy?’ Let’s see if you have the same manners on the Black side of town that you do for the white side of town,” Sharpton went on to say to a rousing applause.

The funeral comes just days after the firing of three EMTs who responded to the fatal assault of Tyre Nichols following an internal investigation, according to the Memphis Fire Department.
