Do we even know if the cop was racist? Why is this all about race? What if the cop saw the arrest record and incident where Floyd assaulted the pregnant woman?

He was in the wrong, but where is the proof this was an act of racism?

Lots of questions, but I feel like I missed something.

Cop and floyd worked together at a shady night club. Apparent money laundering and human trafficking stuff. Whole thing glows in the dark

And from working with him for years I'll bet he knew that Floyd had a history of being fucked up on the job. Guaranteed if you are working for a club you know every person in that club that parties.

It is possible the responding officers were given the suspects name and was able to look up his history and see his violent past. That plus committing another crime they took extra steps to protect their safety in a bad part of the neighborhood.

Now 4 cops + 1 guy with a squad car right there maybe they could have put the guy in the backseat till they figured out what to do. Instead they kept a knee to his throat till it was time to call an ambulance? Or was the ambulance called in the first place?

I have a lot of questions too.

Plus I read he had the coronavirus so that also could help him not breathe due to his lungs being messed up.

Not to mention the EMT's casually walking to him and throwing his lifeless body onto a gurney without any assessment.

The whole circumstance is strange.

"knee cop" is on video yanking the dead body as an EMT tries to hold the head in place. Just looks like cops that DGAF due to running into this type of shit everyday and have had enough of dealing with the lowlifes that never change.

They DID put him in the back seat. At first he refused entry. Foot on the car, that type of stuff. Then they got him in. For some reason the "knee" cop pulled him out the other side. (It's possible PERP was banging his head on the car window, so he was taken out for perps own protection. I'm just speculating that). Perp was on drugs, resisting arrest, dragged back out of car and onto ground. 3 cops then force to keep him down, including "knee" cop.

They did exactly that. There is a new video of him in the back seat and what looks like cops struggling with him while an Asian cop keeps lookout.

It has absolutely nothing to do with race. Let that sink in as you look around the nation at the race riots.

I have seen zero evidence the murder had anything to do with race. It could, but not knowing for sure is hell of a reason to start a race war.
