Anyone watching this George Floyd trial?

[TonyGe]

Quickly skimmed, didn’t see the word Homicide. It’s like this, with all the drugs in his system, his heart problems and being restrained like that, was the perfect storm. Would he have died if he wasn’t restrained like that, most likely not. Would an average person without the underlying issues and drugs in their system die from being restrained that way, most likely not. The cop is not necessarily at fault for what he did if that’s what they’re trained to do, but what him and the rest of them are guilty of, is not being aware of the situation and adjusting their tactics accordingly. It’s somewhere between cold blooded murder and an accident.

A healthy person with zero health problems and perfectly sober would most likely died or suffered brain damage from the constant pressure on their respiratory system for almost nine minutes. Get real here. The man knelt on Floyd's neck untill he was unresponsive and still didn't get off him. That type of restraint is only to be used if there is an immediate danger to the arresting officers or others. Floyd was handcuffed. He may been a nuisance but he was not a danger. Chauvin clearly showed a reckless disregard for the welfare of Floyd. That disregard resulted in his death.

Of all people....George Floyd.
No, I'm not saying it's ok for a cop to abuse their power and beat/kill people who have no positive social status.

But George was not a good guy. Not even close to it. Had he continued to live, what are the chances of him not committing more crimes ?

He was 'bout to change, tho ?

I can see an excuse for people to start grabbing iphones and 666 sneakers all in the name of justice.

The Media acted like he had changed doe lol.. even after people brought up the stuff regarding armed robbery.. gun to pregnant women's belly etc

Turns out he was still using drugs (a lot/lethal amount) and still trying to rob people (At least not armed this time i guess?)

This cop should get lighter charges.. but in the end will probably get fcked hard because people will be scared of what happens if he gets off/get's lesser charges

TBH no matter the result.. i expect riots/celebration riots (lol)

These people don't give a **** about black lives.. just want another reason to riot/or be woke because they lead such sad depressing lives

He's gonna be found guilty. This is almost 100% the same as that cops husband who did this and killed a MexiCAN. He's doing 25 to life and I'm sure the MexiCANS are making his life hell....

I’m reading all kinds of insults being thrown back and forth over a murdering cop, and a dope fiend who got killed.


Didn't Chavin have a long running beef with Floyd?
Wasn't Floyd in prison before for several crimes? Not claustrophobic.
Floyd was already cuffed up and didn’t need a knee on his neck to restrain him.

How did Floyd go from being cuffed in the back of a cop car to having a knee on the back of his neck?

if you're able to watch the actual body cam footage, check it out. you'll see floyd completely not listening. the cops actually were patient and giving him a chance to listen but he wasn't. also in the video, you see how big of a guy he is, he does look strong and he is resisting with extra adrenaline pumping. The cops TRIED putting him into the back of the cop car but were never able to. They repeatedly asked him to go in and he was pushing back, saying he was claustrophobic, etc. The cops in the body cam even tell him we'll open a window for you and turn the air on. They try using force to bring him into the car yet he continues to resist, continues to say he's claustrophobic, and then continues to say he can't breathe which finally get's him removed from the car and put onto the ground taking 3 cops to do it.

I dealt with bigger drunks in the Pen. An ankle pick is a great take down manuever and we always went high/low.

But anyways, it didnt look like George Floyd was being combative. They shouldve double cuffed him and sat his ass on the curb if he was spazing in the patrol car and waited for a swat van.There was no need for 3 Cops to be scared of a cuffed man that wasnt being violent and lay on him. They also gave him too many choices. Its either sit in the car or on the curb MF'er until we get a van here.

Dude was big, on the body cam you can see they were having a hard time with him.

But the cops gave him what he wanted. Floyd didn't want to be in the car so they took him out. Cops just did what he asked.

Had Floyd just sat in the car, there wouldn't be a need for the knee to the neck.

Folks here are acting as if Floyd was sitting in the car minding his own business and then got pulled from the car and got a knee to his neck. No, the dude was crying to get out of the car and that he couldn't breathe even with nothing on his neck, so the cops did what he asked.

I agree with the last part about the all the cops present, not just chauvin’s disregard, resulted in Floyd’s death. They should have been aware of his deteriorating condition. But, the cause of death was his heart giving out, which had to be complicated by his heart condition and drugs in his system. If we say that any healthy person would have died in that position, that would mean this cop would have to assume that also, and be choosing to willfully murder someone out in public with several witnesses filming. It makes no sense.

You’re such a moron that you don’t even realize that just because a medical examiner ruled something a homicide that doesn’t automatically confirm Ill intent and or wrong doing.

Homicide


The killing of one human being by another human being.

“Although the term homicide is sometimes used synonymously with murder, homicide is broader in scope than murder. Murder is a form of criminal homicide; other forms of homicide might not constitute criminal acts. These homicides are regarded as justified or excusable. For example, individuals may, in a necessary act of , kill a person who threatens them with death or serious injury, or they may be commanded or authorized by law to kill a person who is a member of an enemy force or who has committed a serious crime.”


You keep getting owned because you’re a buffoon who thinks he’s smarter than he actually is. Whose low IQ also makes him believe everything you don’t like is white supremacy.

Actually you're the moron because I never said Homicide means ill intent. This is hilarious. Please find when I ever mentioned that in my responses to you. I'll wait. Homicide can apply to multiple things and yes that's correct. You claiming that the self defense reference to homicide applies to Chauvin is so funny that it made me literally laugh out loud. I didn't think anyone could possibly be as dumb as you are. What Chauvin did WAS criminal and wrong. The only reason why you don't believe that is because he's white and Floyd was black. So cut to the chase. That's your reason for defending Chauvin and you are defending him. No need to bit ch up and lie about it.




The point was that homicide fits the charges against Chauvin. But your dumb punk ass continues to argue against the third degree murder charges and that they are "hard to prove"against Chauvin when homicide is very fitting for a third degree murder charge and easy to prove when it's on video. You claimed "He was trained that way." Another one of your many lies and excuses for Chauvin.Trav has caught you in multiple lies and so have I. So now you can add this lie to your growing list.

Now go find where I said homicide means " ill intent" you lying bit ch. It's becoming a lot more clear why you were unable to finish high school. No reading comprehension and straight lies to make up for your lack of intelligence.


You've been caught in so many lies that it's hilarious. I would bet that you spent your entire night to come up with that one

How did it go from them not being able to get him in the car, to pulling him out of the car? That was the most bothersome thing for me, they had him in the car already. I don’t believe he was pulled out in order to address his concerns about not being able to breathe, I believe Chauvin was just trying to assert his authority and force the guy comply. If the concern was Floyd’s “inability to breathe”, then putting him on the ground and kneeling on his neck wouldn’t be a very logical solution.
