I'll answer the GD question: No, he wasn't.

But the glaring point is 20-20 hindsight doesn't count. Did the officers fail to use their department issued crystal balls or truth meters to ascertain whether a 30+ count petty criminal was telling the truth this time?


thank you

I'm not sure why 31 prior arrests as a petty criminal makes him any more of a threat to the police (had they even known how many times he'd been arrested) as you or I.

each situation is different. With that many cops and that particular situation, I think some effort to provide him relief when he was saying he couldn't breath was possible.

Am I a cop? nope - just a person who is disturbed by the video and the lack of empathy/sympathy shown by LEO's and supporters on here for a man who died.
