Lots of cities burned, businesses destroyed and innocent people killed because of this. Some of the cities ( Twin Cities, Seattle, Portland ...) will never return to normalcy. Very good chance this event could affect the upcoming elections and the future existence of the U.S.
Waiting for all the internet detectives' analysis. Quite a few of the experts on here said Floyd never resisted arrest based on edited MSM video.
I'm no Soothsayer but I would imagine GF would have survived at least that day had he gotten in the car like he was ordered to. I'm sure with the condition of his heart he would be dead by now even if he hadn't tried to pass a fake Benjamin that day.

It showed a mildly resistive subject, an officers who could have put a better effort into deescalating and calming the subject.
Ever try and reason with a multi convicted violent felon high on large doses of meth and fentanyl?
I can't say that I have. I can say that I have had a few of the pleading (several even crying) types like that and have been able to calm them to some degree with a modicum of effort. There's really not much to lose in trying, particularly not after they are in cuffs. I know what would reflect more favorably on the officer at this point. Juries can arrive at emotional rather than logical conclusions.
They fugged up, he fugged up now he dead and family won the Ghetto Lottery.
No matter what he did there was no need to knee his neck to the pavement for that long with FOUR male officers on scene. Roll his big ass on his side and pin him to the car wheel.
And I have arrested and detained people on every drug known most likely. Many larger than me at 6'3 280 yoked out like a gorilla back in the day.
And no this was not murder or a hate crime. Just fugging stupidity all around.

My biggest heartache with it, and what will prove to be a big hurdle in court, is why Chauvin did absolutely nothing when his partner told him that he couldn't detect a pulse on Floyd. I'd like to slap the schidt out of Chauvin for that.

The longer you're on the street in the inner city the higher chance of a violent and unruly crowd forming during an arrest and then a SHTF scenario. That just a fact you have to consider in these situations. Again totality of the circumstances. If Floyd was 5 2" old lady with no violent criminal history I would agree with you.Floyd was a very seasoned violent felon and was physically big and powerful and high on drugs which results in erratic violent behavior and sometimes super human strength and no pain response.
Pretty easy to armchair qb this from the comfy white suburbs though. And the narrative all along was that Floyd never resisted arrest. Im not justifying the long term knee on the neck but this will affect the court outcome.

Maybe i'm just too much of a jaded a-hole to care after so many years or dealing with scum in the 80's and 90's but I say both Floyd and Chauvin got and are getting whats coming to them. Them other officers were dumdasses as well. JFC grab your partners arm and tell him to move to a different position.

I've not the talent or internet connection for it, but I'm sure there is a great GIF for this.
