It's sad that this or any of the body cam videos weren't released sooner, perhaps that might have saved a city, saved our country, saved our world from being torn down and torn apart.
Indeed, and if I may add, all the LE that were hurt, beaten and shot at. My officers went through hell as did all LE everywhere, they're still going through hell unable to do their jobs. I doubt though that if footage were released sooner it would have made a difference. One has to be rational and decent for that, and none of these people are rational decent people. They're dangerous.
Sad but I said this right from the start when encountering the police you say yes sir and do what they tell you instead of resisting arrest the man was stupid and now look at all the trouble he caused --------------------------------------- added after 83 seconds
That's my point and his entire demeanor seemed questionable. My guess is that the officers had "run a report" on Mr. Floyd and that's why they chose to have their guns drawn prior to approaching his vehicle. I'm not sure how to take Mr. Floyd's interaction with Officers Lane and Kueng, he could have complied without resistance and dialogue. And is it possible to be claustrophobic in the backseat of a car and not the front seat? There's no denying that the knee on his neck may have complicated matters but the autopsy report from Hennepin County Medical Examiner's Office concludes the cause of death was "cardiopulmonary arrest complicating law enforcement subdual, restraint, and neck compression." So did the fentanyl and methamphetamine in his system add to his state of mind and his heart?
Everything you’ve mentioned is plausible. Bottom line, if he would have complied with what the officers were asking repeatedly, this never would have made the news. It also sickens me how media reported this. After watching the video, you can clearly see that it didn’t go down the way they reported it. This piece of shit George Floyd was paraded around the country in his gold casket like was a fucking hero or something. They’re building monuments to honor this criminal piece of garbage.
Destroy what? the evidence that perhaps it was not what was originally reported or?
Wow,why didn't he just hush and get in the damn cops explorer and go to jail?
The drugs are the reason for his actions,almost delusional.
Sad that this got blown out of proportion and has lead to so much trouble.
WHY IN THE HELL was this not put out sooner?
DEFUND THE MEDIA
OH ok. Well, forgive me if this sounds a bit "off".BUT if and I do mean IF, all monuments received respect to the point that none were distroyed,as in confederate monuments,Columbus,Mlk, whoever,whatever,if all were allowed to stand undisturbed, I would simply walk past the 1's i don't like and leave them be.I may not agree,but I don't have to look.
In principle, Mr. Yumm, I agree with just about everything you've said here (the "piece of garbage" bit is a tad over-the-top for me, though).
Floyd was a criminal.
He should not have resisted.
He was not a "hero", and it is wrong to treat him as such.
However, all that being said, nothing he did was worthy of execution.
Objectively,what happened to George Floyd was wrong on BOTH sides of the equation. Any reasonable person has to admit that.
People should comply with police officers, and police officers shouldn't kill people for resisting.
Executed? JustWill, you are the word guy, but your choice of words was a tad over-the-top for me.
It's possible that the body of a man who has a bad heart and major drugs in his system could be strained and compromised from walking to the end of his property to collect his mail. I am not attempting to minimize what happened however Mr. Floyd was in an anxious state after being approached by the Officers, yes, he had a bad heart and major drugs in his system and yes, Officer Chauvin knelt on his neck for 9 minutes. Did Officer Chauvin execute George Floyd, no.
I disagree.
Chauvin knelt on his neck for 9 minutes. NINE MINUTES.
It was excessive and continued long after Floyd had stopped struggling.
Chauvin made a conscious choice to prolong his kneeling on Floyd's neck--which caused the man's death.
Chauvin's actions are what killed Floyd. REGARDLESS of the drugs in his system, his anxiety, or his heart condition. All of that stuff reeks of victim blame (of the "If she didn't want to be r@ped, she shouldn't have been there or have been dressed like that" variety), and is irrelevant to the outcome of the situation.
It is my understanding that a police officer is only to use LETHAL F0RCE when a life is in danger.
That was not the case here.
Chauvin EXECUTED Floyd.
He made a choice, which resulted in a man's unnecessary death. Chauvin KILLED Floyd. He MURDERED him. He EXTINGUISHED HIS LIFE.
I've been reading this with interest , as I've always thought there was more to this than the public was originally told. Yes the media are guilty of whipping up the shit storm that followed these events BUT I have to agree with Justwill , Chauvin did NOT need to keep his knee on Floyd's neck, once Floyd was down and restrained, he could have been cuffed either by Chauvin or one of the other three , at that point Floyd stood every chance of living through these events ( whether he would have succumbed to his drugs is a completely mute point ). Chauvin consciously kept Floyd down , despite protests from Floyd and bystanders , despite pleas that Floyd could not breathe, Chauvins actions ultimately ended Floyds life there and then on the floor next to the police car. Was Floyd a nice man , of course not, he was a drug user , a career criminal , a man who thought nothing about threatening a pregnant womans unborn baby. Was he a martyr ...absolutely not, should there be a statue...absolutely not , did Chauvin kill him , absolutely
Victum blame is a legitament concern and should not be thrown aside.
We all know drugs mixed with adrenilain and bad heart and such contributed to Floyds death.HAD HE BEEN SOBER,he would have listend to the person in the minivan with him that told him to stop resisting,or he would have made other logical choices.
9 minutes was a bit long,but execute,no.
It’s only logical Captain Kirk Floyd knew what he was doing so I think he committed suicide his plan was to screw over three white police officers and throw the whole black community in to a tail spin --------------------------------------- added after 2 minutes
Even if that was not his plan that’s what the dumb ass did
had the man been sober,and drug free,as he shoulda been while in a postion to drive a minivan on the hwy,he would still be alive.His actions were a result of the effects of the drugs on him.
I still fall back to the cop that worked with him that eventually gave the knee,had a beef with him and used this opertunity to even the score or to hide something bigger.
I posted this on another thread and didn't get a response.

I read this blog offerings yesterday and this blog, entitled " Gary5 needs to be kicked off this site." captured my attention. I said to myself, "hmmmm...., what could Gary5 do that would so enrage a member to want him to kicked off the site?", so I read on. The first sentence, I could tell this guy was butthurt...."All I asked gary5 was to take a good look at my naked BBW wife on my 6th page and comment." I looked, and on page #6, there were pictures of a woman who looked totally different than the other 2 dozen, or so women on pages #1 through #5.
The butthurt guy, hornycock5383 , has had a profile since January 2020 and has been blacklisted by 8 members. Can you imagine that one blacklister was creeped out when hornycock5383 wanted to discuss his step daughter and was thwarted when blacklisted. Apparently being blacklisted for that reason doesn't sting as much because he didn't blog about that. Go figure!
So often when you watch the news now people are being interviewed from their homes.
Maybe it's just my dirty mind or maybe it's just entertainment but I often imagine the person being interviewed is receiving oral sex from someone.
There's one on the PBS News now! I just KNOW someone is licking Amy Walter right now, probably another woman. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
You haven't seen any of the many clips where some of these people are all business on top and the camera falls or they get up for something and all they have on are like boxers or shorts, flip flops, etc?
Wow! This must be a first, one member has 18 pictures on the Popular page. There's only 60 spots and HungDee owns and occupies 18 or roughly 29% of that page. Congratulations! And he has only been a member for four days and uploaded 27 pictures!
I told you that you need to smile! If members didn't know that you were a gentle giant, they might think that you are one of those "bad hombres" that Freddy blogs about.
You can't criticize or make a mockery out of the coolest cat on the planet! 😖
That's high class at it's finest. Turn a eulogy into a political event. Cover the coffin of a civil rights icon with a flag that represents racism. How about all that social distancing going on...
They can hold a funeral, but the average everyday person cannot in many places across the U.S.

When the twins spoke of him holding the pitchfork, I immediately thought of the lil devil on the Underwood Ham container.
Maybe it was her way of being good-hearted and compassionate to the other SYC members. Can you imagine being a new member, just an average woman and uploading a picture at the same time the most popular member uploaded theirs? You wouldn't stand a snowball's chance in hell getting comments, views or votes.
I finally actually heard the name pronounced on Tv today.WHO THE HELL names these storms? What origin is that name? I know it poured down rain here for a few hours,right when I was trying to mow a handicaped friends knee high yard. I got soaked!
