Marine veteran stood outside Utah Capitol with 'I can't breathe' taped over his mouth so long his shoes melted

Winn, a two-time Purple Heart recipient, stood outside for three hours in silence. A thick piece of black tape was across his mouth with the words "I can't breathe" written across it.

"Justice for George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Tamir Rice, countless others," said a sign in one of his hands.

It became so hot during the demonstration that the heels of Winn's shoes melted off.

Winn stood in the same spot for three hours. He refused water and barely moved, except to take a knee and stand at attention.
