I agree with your summary but I’m missing your point. Are you suggesting that Floyd volunteered to be killed for the good of the “movement”?
The dead guy could have been in on it but didn’t understand the part where he gets killed. Like the guy selling loosies.
I know that you were not directing your question to me; but, I will give you my opinion on this.
I don't think this is what was supposed to happen. I think something on the order of police overreacting or something was supposed to be the headline. However, this guy was a large guy; and, if what I was reading yesterday about his health problems, he was a coronary waiting to happen. I think he struggled and this caused a physical/medical problem and that is what killed him.
We will see when the full autopsy and toxicology reports come in. If it was a scam, it didn't work out the way it had been planned.
