“Once again, it doesn’t matter what Mr. Floyd did before he was killed. It does not excuse what the police officers did.”

Agreed but what it does show is this case is not about police targeted racism.

This was a combative suspect and if he got in the car upon arrest he likely would continue to be alive.

The officer, who actually knew this man on a personal basis was trying to make the suspect comply by holding him down. The officer made a horrible mistake and killed the man but it does not seem to be race related.

This case is not a reason to vilify police officers and claim there is a terrible problem with racist police in this country.

That’s Obama talking.
