I just did a little research about Georgy Porgy and was astonished to learn that he committed an armed robbery in 2007 in Houston and was sentenced to 5 years in prison in 2009!
So he was an ex-con and drug abuser who was passing counterfeit bills. Funny that nobody ever mentions that!
Are you saying this man deserved to die in police custody on that day?
Where is your consideration that knee-on-neck cop and the deceased worked security at the same nightclub?
And? What part of being an ex criminal gives the police the right to do what was done?
8 minutes, 46 seconds. The amount of time the neck restraint was applied to a man already restrained.
2 minutes, 53 seconds. The amount of time the neck restraint was applied after unresponsive.

What does any of that have to do with the actions of the police on scene? Are you suggesting because he was a drug user he should have died at the hands, or knees, of the police? Maybe Floyd was a low-down thief and addict. It does not hold these were capital crimes deserving of him losing his life.
He held a woman at knife point while his friends ransacked her house. That has no bearing on the four cops actions of course, but if I hear another person say he was a “gentle giant”, I’m going to scream.
The new Medical Examiner’s report also notes other significant conditions such as
arteriosclerotic
and hypertensive heart disease;
fentanyl intoxication;
and recent methamphetamine use.
That is the 1st I had heard so thank you
