Terrence Floyd has been outspoken against the acts of violence that are breaking out during otherwise peaceful protests across America.  
Floyd pleaded with protesters to not ‘tear up your town,’ saying that ‘it's OK to be angry, but channel your anger to do something positive or make a change another way because we've been down this road already. 
The anger, damaging your hometown is not the way [George would] want.’

Terrence Floyd visited the site of his brother George's death in Minneapolis and called for peace from protesters.
In an emotional moment, Floyd joined a civil rights leader, a civil rights attorney and a community activist to lay flowers and hold prayer at the site.
Floyd told the crowd that violence and unrest would not bring his brother back.
He urged everyone to protest peacefully. He said he knows his brother would not want anyone to be doing this and told people to relax.

He said he knows his brother would not want anyone to be doing this and told people to relax.
A week after George Floyd died in police custody in Minneapolis, daytime demonstrations focused on racism and police brutality are increasingly giving way to violence and chaos by night.

He begged the crowd for calm as protesters around the world have marched in solidarity with those demanding justice.
Linking arms with friends and family, Mr. Floyd shouted down the crowd asking, “what are y’all doing?” Saying that breaking down businesses and setting things on fire isn’t going to bring his brother back. He explained that he’s more upset than anyone, but “if I’m not wilding out” others shouldn’t either.
“My family is a peaceful family. My family is God-fearing. Yeah, we’re upset, but we’re not going to be repetitious,” he continued. “In every incident of police brutality, the same thing ends up happening. Y’all protest. Y’all destroy stuff. And if they don’t move — you know why they don’t move? Because you don’t destroy their stuff, y’all destroy our own stuff.”
