Except Floyd was killed cuffed and face down on the pavement with a knee on his neck.

reply

He died as a result of his health problems and drug use. And being a moron who refused to do what he was told.

Shobin (or whatever his name is) shouldn't have ever been charged with anything.

Regardless of Floyd's health problems or drug use, "Chauvin" continued to kneel on Floyd's neck for three minutes *after* another officer reported that Floyd had no pulse. Was Floyd's crime worthy of public execution with no trial? Maybe some folks feel that way.

But yes, let's live in a world where the police can summarily execute people. If you want, I can mention a few police states where this happened legally. Maybe if they're on your side, you're OK with that. But what if the next police state finds *you* the problem child?


reply

It wasn't a public execution with no trial, Floyd killed himself by OD'ing. Chauvin's knee-to-the-neck thing was exaggerated for TV, he wasn't on Floyd's neck for as long as was claimed, nor was he even on Floyd's neck the whole time. He may have supposedly been a dick in general, but he had no part in Floyd's death whatsoever.

I guess the video of the entire event means nothing to you.

Floyd did not OD. His blood levels weren't high enough. And even if he did, was kneeling on him for three minutes after he was informed Floyd was dead the correct thing for Chauvin to do? Everyone, including a POS like Floyd, deserved to be resuscitated. I would insist on that even if it was you.

I saw the video, and in it I saw Floyd complaining about breathing problems before the cops even touched him. I saw him resisting arrest, I saw the cops trying to restrain him, and then I saw him die on his own. Funny how people used to vehemently say the cop's knee was on Floyds neck for 9 minutes. Now it dropped down to merely 3, a whopping 6-minute difference.

Here are the details on the autopsy report:

In it you'll see that asphyxiation was not listed as the cause, as prior to this it was "revealed no physical findings that support a diagnosis of traumatic asphyxia or strangulation." You'll also see that he was a walking cocktail of problems, from the drugs in his system (fentanyl, methamphetamine, cannabinoids ), heart problems, and even Covid. Not too long ago, having covid in your system at the time of death was considered death by covid, which even this report seems to lean on. But since he's black and died near a cop, the news reported it as death by cop.

One can argue he did OD, since his already compromised condition was made worse by all the drugs he took. The drug levels may not have killed an otherwise healthy person, but for him it was enough. That didn't matter though, sensationalized news and social media decided that the cops, specifically Chauvin, were guilty.

No one is "dropping" it to three. Chauvin kneeled on his neck for 9 minutes, and 3 minutes *after* another officer checked his pulse and found none.

That's why Chauvin was convicted.

reply

Nah, if you watch the full bodycam footage you'll see that Chauvin actually had his knee on his upper back. It's hard to see from the angle spread around by the media where it LOOKS like his knee is on his neck, but here, check the bodycam footage for yourself:

It's kind of eye opening how events really played out, and nothing like the media skirmish that was puppetered before the public's eyes.

reply

Too bad Floyd wasn't allowed to go on his high merry way and drive through the neighborhood while whacked out on fentanyl. That would have been better.

reply

Thumbs up

reply

The facts behind their deaths were all lied about and manipulated by the Mainstream media to fuel division and hate.

reply

“I can’t breathe!”🤣

reply

In the hundreds.

reply

So you are celebrating their death. If we are going that direction, imagine of all the people that would be spared your racist comments if you were murdered. Jesus.

reply

Him pointing out that the world is a better place without these thugs is not "celebrating their deaths". What mental gymnastics are you conducting to come to the conclusion this is celebratory?

Also, racist? Really?
What was racist about OPs post?
He stated facts.

The only one making this about race, is YOU.

YOU are the racist, buddy. Wake up. Stop being a lemming.

reply

I was just wondering, is the OP’s title what MLK had in mind with his “I have a dream” bullshit or were they more Malcolm X’s or Obama’s? A bunch of drugged out thug losers.

reply

Facts
