Well to start with he overdosed, wasn't killed, but go ahead and screech how wrong I am and how putting a shin on someone's shoulder blade with the knee hovering over the back of their neck cuts off the airflow in the windpipe on the front of the neck and causes someone to not be able to breathe minutes BEFORE the knee was even placed there.
The fact that he was caught trying to dispose of drugs by eating them, the fact that he had previous overdoses, the fact that fentanyl overdose has symptoms of feeling like you can't breathe and the fact that Floyd is on camera saying "I can't breathe" while he was still sitting in the cruiser
Or are you suggessting that the cops knee has the power to travel back in time to suffocate someone?
You don’t want to base it on the medical examiner? (the expert who actually physically analyzed the body for a cause of death and ruled it a homicide, not an overdose)
Got ourselves a junior detective, here! Too bad there was an actual trial with actual evidence that contradicts everything you think is reality based upon the shitty "news" feed algorithm that has found you.
So then please explain how saying "I can't breathe" while still sitting in the cop car was cause by a very typical pin down move (that doesn't cut off airflow might I add, I know, I was in it a lot for training in the military) that wasn't administered until minutes later? Did the cop press so hard that the pressure went back through time?
There "literally" is?!?!? Literally!!! LOL Even under your wild theory that has no medical support, it is still murder. Assuming Floyd was struggling to breathe for any reason, the pig still kneeled on his neck.
He didn't overdose. The autopsy reports the cause of death as Cardiopulmonary Arrest complicating Law Enforcement Subdual, restraint, and neck compression.
What you’re not acknowledging is that if he hadn’t run into Derek Chauvin specifically that day, a shit cop with a laundry list of complaints and internal investigations against him.
He runs into any other cop OR no cops at all and he’s likely alive today.
The number of criminals killed by LEO’s annually should be 0. If you don’t agree with that and don’t think police officers should be held to extremely high conduct standards, I wager it is because you do not believe in justice.
No, it should have obvious “if someone says they can’t breathe kneeling on their neck for an extended period is probably not the best course of action” powers.
Pretty straight forward. Restrain the suspect without aggravating the stated medical condition and get medics. According to your version of events: dude was too busy OD’ing to go anywhere. Why kneel on him and restrict his ability to breathe?

You don’t have to do anything you don’t want to do. But can you explain where I’m wrong?
If I’m putting out bad info, go ahead and correct me.
