Another bad apple (George Floyd case)

[Rickyvol77]

Except that the white members of that black reported team were also arrested. Welp.

Shhh that’s not what the Facebook group said

As petty as this sounds, people have to understand that this officer is a member of the police union. There is protocol to follow in bringing charges, especially murder, against an officer. No matter what video evidence was out. He was always going to get arrested and charged. And it was always going to be in the manner that is specified in the labor contract.

Since when does a labor contract overrule the law? You're full of it.

I agree. We have a segment of the population comprised of morons and another segment that just like to take advantage of a tragedy. Some people are in both groups.

This is a complete failure by elected officials allowing this to get out of control. Elect crap, get crap results.

Blue font? There's been several tweets of his cited on the matter.

I was referring to holding a press conference and not acknowledging it. Not even a single statement. But you are right, I forgot we were dealing with the Twitter-in-chief.

He overdosed.

 

[Rickyvol77]

So with 3 cops holding him down, handcuffed, and the murderer kneeing his throat for 7 minutes is justified in your eyes? He was no threat at all and was not moving. Your argument is pathetic. I for one to support the police and know not all cops are bad, but this guy is a POS and his actions were awful. End of story.

Jesus slow down and breathe and look at my posts in this thread about the officers actions.

You would complain no matter what Trump said on the matter.

 

[Rickyvol77]

So he likely died of a drug induced issue with his heart. Uh oh

POTUS (regardless who) shouldn't give a press conference in these situations. It's a local matter.

Same day arrested, the defense narrative is already formulating.

Michael Moore, Democratic Socialists, Journalists Join Hands And Cheer Minnesota Riots

Some left-wing activists and journalists on Twitter celebrated outbreaks of violence in Minnesota Thursday night, as rioters set ablaze the Minneapolis 3rd Police Precinct.

In custody deaths in most states are investigated by an outside agency and it is usually a State entity. As far as if there were no video, there were plenty of witnesses who saw what happened and even remarked to the officer about the victim's condition. Don't you think they would have come forward to complain, provide evidence?

As far as the arrest, I'm thinking that in this case, the timeline was accelerated due to circumstances (video/FBI/high profile and the officers being fired prior to an I/A) as well as it being reported that the officers have asserted their 5th amendment rights and aren't talking.

Ricky, I am breathing fine. I am however tired of excuses and "buts".

Now the medical examiner will need to be rioted over.

Burn down the hospitals!

The very end of the video clearly says they were asked to move and did not. I guess you missed that one. Are there bad cops and idiot cops? Sure. That doesn’t mean the same doesn’t also apply to CNN reporters trying to make news when they didn’t obey law enforcement orders.

Just like with everyone else....go watch the full video. The reporters clearly, very clearly, asked where the police wanted them and they would go. Literally the next thing that happens is they are put in handcuffs. If they really didn't obey orders we would know about it by now. The only thing you and other have is conjecture to get to the narrative you want. I don't like CNN either, but my God, the police were 100% in the wrong here. It is not hard to see.

 

[hUTch2002]

Here we go! Found it on youtube.

This is total bullsh*t as someone edited the last part of the video out where the CNN reporter says on air that the crew was told to move and didn’t. Funny how that happens. But, by all means, you go on making assumptions from small video clips.

Derek Chauvin, the police officer who knelt on George Floyd's neck, had 18 previous complaints against him, police department says - CNN

I read where he had 12

 

[Rickyvol77]

Geezus... Just stop.

Medical examiner just said there was no damage to throat or neck

Always trust media. I mean havent you seen their covid coverage?

I think they police were waiting for instructions from their boss.

It doesn't matter. All contributed to his death, however, remove the knee from his neck and, amazingly he's still alive. So what was the proximate cause?

I had mentioned this to a few other people but good defense attorneys are one of the best things you can have if you have the money.

Who said anything about a press conference? If he wants to give a press conference about China, great. A simple on-air statement on Minneapolis is not out of the realm of expectation.
