I agree with Glitter, there's been NO evidence that the George Floyd death was race related. The fact that it was a white cop was a mere coincidence.
But there's no way anyone can say that he was lying about not being able to breathe because... well, he's dead. Nobody is so dedicated to a lie that they hold their breath until they die just to prove it!
There IS a good chance, though, that he couldn't breathe before, and the knee on his neck exacerbated a pre-existing issue. The cop probably did that 50 other times with no problem, but the fact that he ignored Floyd's complaint is what makes it murder.
Point being, all he googling, all the online videos isn't going to give us a full picture or account of what is going on and a lot of times, this happens: more information comes out that fills in the story.
It doesn't matter if the cop were white and the perp white or both black or both green, or a blue cop and a purple perp, if the perp was smothering or claustrophobic when he was placed in the car, he should have been attended to by the officer. The fact he had covid, had fentanyl and meth in his system probably let to his smothering which possibly caused his combativeness. The cop, obviously, didn't know that, but Floyd was his responsibility at this point and he should have gotten him medical attention.
The fact that anyone makes it racist, well, that's on you. If you have to pull the racism card because you are a little man then your weakness doesn't make me racist.
Is it thus necessary to belittle another. For just an thought or registering an opinion? No,its not. I hope everyone can sit back. Look at the big picture and all thoughts offered. Then make YOUR OWN conclusion.
So, metal probably has a point. New, leaked video indicates Floyd was saying he couldn't breathe in the patrol car while being combative. In no way does it justify what Chauvin did but shows there's more to the story...
The teens that came up to his car are the ones that called the cops. He bought cigarettes at the store where they work with a fake $20, and they went to try to get the cigarettes back. He refused, so they called the cops. They're the ones that said he looked drunk.
What happened to make the first cop draw his gun? No clue, but we know that Floyd didn't have any weapons in the car. And he was seated with the door closed, so there's no possible way he could have been physically threatening. So the point you're trying to make just shows worse behavior from the cops, it doesn't somehow justify their actions.
anti again, when officers first approached vehicle what happened that caused officer to pull weapon and other officer running to driver side to assist?? Also why would assisting office let passengers with Backpacks probably full of Drugs unattended? Guess we'll never know, yet, them Teenagers approaching vehicle at beginning i don't think were there just for a meet & greet do you??
