In this situation both victim and cop are to blame; cop for incompetence, victim for being the party responsible for the need to draw any type of weapon.

The George Floyd case is sort of similar in my view, with Floyd (or his dealer), solely responsible for his death, and his stupid behaviour the cause of the involvement with an officer which DID NOT cause but was simply occurring at the same time as his fatal overdose.

If Chauvin is convicted it will be in essence for getting drawn into a resisting arrest incident with an individual who’s own actions meant that he needed to be at a hospital desperately, which Chauvin couldn’t know at that time.
