Methed out with fent to boot, passing fake $20s, resisting arrest (fighting inside the vehicle to the point they had to remove him).

Dies of an OD caused by the stress of the arrest.

Resulting in multiple cities burned down, police disbanded, stock market crashed again, and fucking CHAZ.

What a fucking joke and yes all of us agree he should not have knelt on his neck for 9 minutes and deserves charges for it.

George Floyd died of a heart attack high on opioids, pot, and speed.

He tested positive for COVID-19 with co-morbidities of "severe multifocal arteriosclerosis heart disease as well as hypertensive heart disease."

So a 50-something man with HBP & heart disease is on speed, pot, fentanyl.

Dude must've had a death wish - Chauvin didn't need to kill him, he'd have died anyway with habits like that. Too old to keep partyin' like that.

Are we the only 50-ish couple who relax in the hot tub with a cold beer?

Don’t look now, but the autopsy doesn’t say anything about asphyxiation. It’s quite likely your first is exactly what he died of, combined with getting arrested and going into this toxic extreme stress mode. There’s a proper clinical name for it. All of the above will feature prominently in Chauvin’s defense.

Hell yeah, I guess it will. Considering that and that Chauvin can claim he used a legal method of restraint, albeit poorly ...

But if you pay Baden some cash he will say MURDER!

Yup, you chose the level of force police must use to subdue you. Don't want them using techniques with a non zero risk to health? Don't escalate to that point. Letting you go isn't an option.

Did they ever confirm he passed the $20?

Ultimate irony would be that the bill was real & the clerk made a mistake, called the popo & here we are & there Flyd ain't.
