Don't cops put their knee on the neck of criminals all the time? 8 minutes or not you don't hear of people dying from it. I don't want to necessarily defend that but what I saw in the video is that Floyd said that he couldn't breathe when he was simply in the back of the car.
I hate to say it but it doesn't sound like the knee killed him. If he couldn't breathe before anyone even knelt on his neck, then what was the cause? Drugs? Panic attack? Heart attack? He said his mom had just died, but it was actually two years prior (and don't come at me, my mother died, I know how it is too). The point is...all these riots, bloodshed and all this political persecution over this? Fuck, even I was anti-BLM and I didn't know it was so exaggerated.
