His history is just bait to get people to not process the disaster that was his arrest. I don't even care if he was resisting arrest before the video. That dude went from pleading and squirming to silent and limp for five minutes, all while people just asked them to check a pulse. Get outta here with, "He's a bad dude..." I don't care. What does this post even mean? He robbed someone in 2007 so you can k eel on his neck until he dies? We don't need someone to be a saint to be able to tell when a police officer abdicated his responsibilities for the welfare of an individual.

This is divisive BS that is trying to paint us like u sympathetic racists. Careful with OP posts like these.

Don't care anymore, the whole thing stopped about about him last week. We're in the beginning of a insurrection. Floyd doesn't mean jackshit anymore, the black community lost the support.

GG cunts.

Problem is there is an almost identical video, but with a white guy who got killed that same way in I believe Dallas. The police covered it up and the elderly mother had to beg the local media to find the truth. There was no outcry, no riots. Everything you see right now is total hypocrisy and I refuse to give loser Floyd any special sympathy.

Read the autopsy report. The officer didn't kill Floyd. His bad heart, high blood pressure, and DRUGS IN HIS SYSTEM killed Floyd.

The knee wasn't even a factor. Putting him in restraint was a factor, but you can't try a cop for murdering someone just by putting them into custody.

At worst, the cop is going to have to take a few hours of training about how to properly restrain violent criminals.

Wait. Why did I just read another autopsy report stating the opposite. What's going on here?

Turns out you were reading the unofficial autopsy report. I was reading the official one.
