Unionized government employees.
Minneapolis is a stronghold for the Minnesota DemocraticFarmerLabor Party (DFL), an affiliate of the Democratic Party.
Floyd died at Hennepin County Medical Center soon after the incident,

Well, that is convenient.
He sure looked and acted dead (limp dead weight) when loaded up for the ambulance (and minutes before that from the video).
The hospital is at fault, COVID probably.
I would expect at least the one police officer to be arrested and charged within the next few days.
What’s up with the chiron? It be wackytalk.
Thank you.
I may be wrong, but I feel there is a Pink Elephant in the room. The Unions that protect bad cops just like a bad teacher can not be fired. As long the unions continue protecting bad cops we will continue seeing these incidents.
Not the town of Mary Richards anymore.
Well, his death did involve respiratory distress, a classic covid symptom...
The first few minutes were standard police brutality, showing the guy who's boss and ensuring compliance. At the same time, they were antagonizing and taunting him to "get up and get in the car" while keeping him pinned. It seemed like a game to them. For about the last few minutes, the cop was pressing his knee into the neck of an unconscious, motionless, dying man. Dude was cuffed and effectively dead and the cop was still pressing his knee into his neck. And none of the other 3 cops did a thing to stop it.
Ive always said, if youre talkin, youre breathin.
Thanks, mumblypeg. :)
This will now displace the ARBURY CASE

Worth repeating. Especially in light of the total jerks cracking jokes on this thread about looting workboots and TV sets. Some days Free Republic is the rotten cesspool its detractors say it is.
As details emerge, this is showing all the earmarks of an excited delirium death.
Highly unlikely it was suffocation. My money’s on after effects of excited delirium.
Locals requested them.
Sure. Whatever you say. The cop was telling him to get up and get in the car all the while kneeling on his neck. And the guy saying he was having a hard time breathing.
I want to know...who calls the police over a suspected counterfeit $20?
Counterfeit or forgery
FBI is likely upset too as there may be a ring there and now the cops ruined their sting
