You deserve no more.
50 years ago, incredible, and not one person in the media will mention that or even investigate this. All they care about instead is flaming race relations and blaming Republicans who have absolutely nothing to do with it. It seems to me one possible reason why these killings happen so much in democrap run areas is that these democrap run cities have lowered the standards when it comes to hiring police, but eh, who cares about that when it can be used by democraps to flame race releations and CNN can get their ratings
Well then you can join the lynch mob in Minnesota and burn these cops without a trial. I guess that part of the Constitution means nothing to you. Judge, jury and executioner seems to be your forte.
“...And then choked him to death right there on camera??? “
That’s exactly what happened to him. Right on the damned camera. They had no regard for the condition or lack of breathing of the man.
Open your eyes.
Open your mind. Nobody knows for sure what caused the death at this point. More at the link:
The officers may be determined to be grossly at fault and, indeed, discredited and rightly labeled murderer and accessories. An in-depth analysis of all the data may show that they were legally justified in every decision they made. There may be a lot of truth along the continuum between the two conclusions. At the end of all of it, Ill be able to say I was right not to make a judgment based on 36 hours of news reports.
Heres what remains to be known at this point.
CAUSE OF DEATH
An autopsy and perhaps as in the case of Michael Brown, multiple autopsies, will be the sole determinant of the cause of death. Particular attention will be given to whether there is internal injury resulting from compression to the posterior portion of the neck, and whether any such injury to nerves or tissue resulted in an inability of Floyd to breathe or maintain critical blood circulation.
The actual mechanism of that compression, including how much weight was applied (it will not be the officers total body weight) and the effect of that weight. While still responsive, Floyd was able to move his head laterally while prone with the officer above him.
Pre-existing conditions may be found from medical history or autopsy that could cause death under circumstances that would not be fatal to persons without those conditions. The possibility that death was imminent regardless of the police interaction will be considered to be ruled out if appropriate. Floyds universal complaints of stomach upset, hurting all over and breathing problems will be compared to autopsy findings.
TOXICOLOGY
The ability of a person to respond in a rational, physically coordinated manner is diminished in a variety of ways when under the influence of a variety of legal or illicit drugs. Many in-custody deaths are a result of the influence of ingested chemicals on the body. The ability to comprehend commands, put compliance into practice, or accurately communicate ones distress is also affected. A finding of high alcohol content, psychotropic drugs, central nervous system depressants, or polydrug use would be of significant value to investigators in analyzing the context of the custody.
Why keep cops on board you had to pay a settlement over
This George Floyd death looks a lot like how Kelly Thomas ended up dead at the hands of Fullerton, CA police back in 2011.

Of course that’s not what I’m saying. Whatever health issue he had contributed to his death. At this point, unless the autopsy report says Floyd had an aneurysm unrelated to respiratory distress he is going to face manslaughter charges. Murder implies he was trying to kill him which I do not believe. I think he thought he was a big guy who could handle a little rough treatment and was crying wolf as arrested people often do.
