Doc, you are usually cogent but now you are concerned with "optics" not cause and effect.
Shame, doc, shame.
The "neck kneeling" is part of the MN police protocol {which they don't want to now admit}.
George, killed himself, the cop just moved the body to the stretcher.
Optics my ass, try facts and look at the autopsy results before you go liberal with the "optics".
Thanks for your commentary and I hear what you are sayin. But what I do know is that there are political battles that as the hand is dealt are not worth the fight. This one can’t be won. Any standard American looks at the video and is revolted by it. I actually medically think the neck restraint is excessive
It’s a bad cop. They exist. He should have eased up at the loss of consciousness.
I am stuck with the notion that politics is the art of the possible and while there may be a technical excuse for the behavior it just doesn’t oass the smell test. So while be may be trying to defend the indefensible ot weakens our position
My position is that there appears to be a problem and this is why there are trials and discovery and the process while slow will get to the truth without emotion. This is what needs to happen. For conservatives to jump on the see her had fentanyl in his system and therefore this is ok is just a loser in terms of politic.
I appreciate the fact that you think I am occasionally cogent. After working all night I sometimes wonder
