This is just like the michel brown saga,

This is NOTHING like the Michael Brown saga.....Nothing!

Michael Brown wasn't seen being hand cuffed and walked to the police vehicle and he wasn't seen lying face down on the concrete with a LEO kneeling on his neck during the last 8 minutes of his life...........

Like I said, it's not going to be a question of guilt but rather how much time the cop will spend in jail.........

So you’re admitting Floyd was resisting arrest? It took 2 cops to pull him out of his vehicle which means he didn’t get out willingly, unlike his 2 passengers who complied with the officer’s command to get out of the car. Mr. Floyd refused to do so. They are alive today while Mr. Floyd is not.

Rather than calling posters names and insinuating they are trolls, you might wanna learn to discuss legal cases in a more logical manner. Your hyperbole is weakening your arguments, which defeats your attempt to play judge, jury, and executioner with regard to Chauvin.

So if you’re going to refer to Derek Chauvin as “Knee on Neck,” I guess it’s okay to call George Floyd “Druggie Ex-Con Cheat.” 🤣

You're lying. Again.

The videos the bootlickers refer to, long precede the video on which he is lying down on the ground on his stomach, handcuffed, with two policemen on his legs and Mr. Kneecap on his neck.

And the video of him with the knee on his neck is uncut, not "conveniently edited" and taken from six feet away, so close you can see the grimaces on his face and that of Mr. kneecap with his sunglasses jauntily perched on his head.

You never bothered to read the Statement of Probable Cause against Mr. Kneecap, did you?

Because it said he complied once the handcuffs were on; and there is independent security cam video from a store, after he's out of the car, showing him peacably beening helped to his feet by the officers, in cuffs, after he'd been seated by the wall of the store.

But you cover that up and lie and insinuate.

Nobody likes a dirty cop.

Except other dirty cops and the policeman's union.

“Too many others on these threads stake out a position based on emotion and refuse to admit when their threadbare excuses have been blown away.”

Irrelevant. He had served his lawful sentence for past convictions.

The precipitating event was passing a bad $20 bill, which is not a threat to life or limb and does not trigger the use of deadly force.

Still less is deadly force justified for a man laying down in the street, unconscious, in handcuffs, with two policemen on his legs, and without a pulse.

I totally agree. Apparently common sense has been swept aside in this case, even on FR.

So you want to string ppl up based on the look on their face? Is evidence even necessary any more? I pray you’re never on a jury.

You are both pot and kettle.

I have made no excuses, but relied on official charging documents from the State of Minnesota.

See, what you're doing, is calling the State liars, but believing the police implicitly.

Nice try, troll-boi.

You love to call ppl names. It’s juvenile and unnecessary. I haven’t once done the same to you, nor have any of the other posters on here. If this is your general response to anyone who disagrees with you, then I pity your wife and family.

Instead of saying, "Holy Sh*t, it sure looks bad" you come up with more and more far-fetched, and misleading excuses.

Doing that when the facts are available, makes it look like you completely endorse his behavior -- which is literally, by the Charging Documents, held by the State, to be murder.

"Probable Cause."

It makes you look like you WANT the police to be a law unto themselves, answerable to no one.

Just like the dirty cops in DC helping Hillary, Framing Flynn, and Committing Treason against Trump.

What did you expect, a Nobel Peace Prize?

There you go again with your histrionics and snide comments. I guess it’s all you know, which is sad. I prefer to wait until more evidence comes out before I judge someone guilty or innocent, which is the typical procedure in a civilized society. I guess that’s just me. But you do you.

If Floyd was white, the reason for his death would be Covid-19.

Are you saying this man deserved to die in police custody on that day?

Where was that said? I missed it. As far as I'm concerned, the cop is a POS, but I'm not shedding any tears for Floyd.

I'm more concerned about the more than 12,000 babies that have been murdered in our Country, since Floyd's death only one week ago. How many abortion clinics have been looted and burned down this year?

Note knee-on-neck ex-cops’s smug, imperious facial expression has vanished in the mug shot, after his authority has been removed.

???

I do not disagree with you. As in all cases, infamous or mundane, facts in evidence are the only ones that matter in the end, in a normal world, where courts get to be the finder of fact and render judgement. Video on the internet isn’t the be all and end all.

I also condemn every illegal act performed in the name of this incident as well, as I assume everyone who is rational and sane.

Regards

Right, so the state can use grainy low quality black and white security video at a bad angle at night to help arrest a civilian, but a high quality video from six feet away in broad daylight is suddenly unreliable when it nails a corrupt state actor well enough to charge him with murder within 3 or 4 days.

Pull the other one, it's got bells on it.

I guess you failed to notice the Statement of Probable Cause from the state of Minnesota, references the video.

Because video isn't subject to faulty memory or coaching like human witnesses are.

Evidence in court.

Do you not think that a court will dispense justice?

Certainly I am on record as being hard on Leo’s, the ought to know better, as they as re supposedly trained.

But, all this is getting everyone nowhere we want to be, quickly.

Peace brother.

Why are you being so juvenile? Did you think the Covington kid was guilty as charged based on his smug smile? Or do you just believe everything the media says because you’re incapable of independent thought?
