The cops actions relative to George Floyd were bad, very bad. But, the cops did not kill George Floyd. The drugs in his system killed him.

The cops did nothing wrong.

Of course, our “president” who did not play football for the Naval Academy but thinks he did; who did not come under fire in Afghanistan but thinks he did; who does not have a son who was killed in combat, but thinks he did; whose first wife was not killed by a drunk driver but thinks she was; somehow, this “leader” ignores those who died for their country on Memorial Day weekend which was the intent of the holiday weekend.

The cop’s actions were in accordance with their training manual. Not sure what they should have done differently, except stand & watch him die in the street. That wouldn’t have worked for them either.

“The cops actions relative to George Floyd were bad, very bad.”

I don’t even buy that. Have you watched the body cameras and what was going on prior to the restraint? He was an out-of-control, resisting monster. He died from dope.

No. They were NOT! They did as trained. And then betrayed by those who trained them! Chauvin weighs all of 150 pounds. His knee didn’t oppress anyone!

His family got a $37 million payout with Ben Crump getting his cut. Enough.

Their reactions to floyd were in line with department procedures. floyd's actions were the ones out of line.

If, he doesn't resist, he'd lived the rest of that day most likely.

Well Joe’s second favorite drug addict is George Floyd, his favorite is his pampered son, Hunter.

I read his autopsy report, he had severe arteriosclerosis.. He was full of narcotics. That's what did him in..

I’ve watched the tape.

At no time did I see a choke hold or a knee on the part of
Floyd’s neck, where his carotid artery was located. His
knee was on the back of his neck, keeping more weight on
the top part of the body, impacting the tipping point. He
was therefore not able to get back on his feet.

As usual, they put the cops out on the street and ask them
to do a job. Anything goes wrong and all their support
people back at the command station start with the cover
their own ass comments.
