He just did a 15 minute opening RAILING against BLM. He has got to be the only brave person left in politics. I'm dying for someone to take his advice and stand up against this insanity. something has to be done. If Trump got rid of Pence and stuck Tucker on his ticket as VP he'd win in a landslide. I'd personally run through a brick wall to vote.
PLEASE MAKE IT HAPPEN!
I mean, I think it looks like a manslaughter charge would be more appropriate because for someone without a heart condition and the drugs in his system, the treatment received at the hands of the cops would not have resulted in death. But it wasn't an overdose that killed him. I saw a really good video on the subject (link below) where the metabolites present indicate that Floyd had already passed the possibility of OD'ing. The action of the cops is what pushed his body over the line, but a healthy person would not have died from the treatment (it happens in Israel all the time).
All of that big brain stuff aside, people are dumb and emotional. The video was very emotionally disturbing because George Floyd was in such distress, and without the context of the struggle, the treatment looks very cruel. People are too stupid to do more research and if we want to be winners and not losers, we have to come to terms with that and work accordingly.

There's a completely different angle to this which the bodycam footage needs to be released to discover. First Responders train for something called "excited delerium" (or maybe a little different?) which they are trained is a death sentence unless you restrain the perp until EMTs arrive.
The whole thing sounds fishy to me but even if it's wrong and they're trained that way, that changes the whole scene. Which is why we don't rush to judgment.
Mayor will likely never release the bodycam footage and sacrifice 4 cops instead. Injustice. This whole thing may be fake and Floyd is still alive. We should pour over the available footage and look for inconsistencies that indicate the same perp was not involved throughout.
I think manipulating public opinion by hyping selectively cut video clips is a lot more plausible than employing actors to fake such things. I remember seeing a Medium post on T_D that talked about EDS and other facts that may get Chauvin and the others off the hook. Pretty crazy that they may have just been following best practice and their hands were tied by department policy...
Yeah this whole thing seems dirty. I have no idea how "selectively cut" the video I've seen is, of course. This is the main thing BLM ever achieved, is having cops wear bodycams. Lots of jurisdictions require it be turned on and run continuously from one point in any contact with the public to another. Strict, but it's designed to rule out these questions.
Not pressing for that footage with Chauvin is just the strangest thing.
Agreed. Obviously it somehow weakens the leftist narrative so they aren't letting it out.
