No his former crimes are not irrelevant you don’t think the policeman knew he was dealing with a man with 8 felonies who had served time in prison ? He subdued a large person on drugs who resisted arrest.Again Floyd died from taking drugs with a bad heart.
They're entirely irrelevant and you simply can't answer the question even after it's been fleshed out to you in detail. What possible threat did Floyd pose after being incapacitated on the ground by Chauvin with several armed colleagues in support? You do realize that those other officers are facing aiding and abetting charges as well?
Chauvin was a police officer. He does not have the power of a judge, juror or executioner.
While that argument is persuasive on an emotional level, it requires the proof of intent.
If Floyd had his hands free and was punching out, I would agree his size and weight would be an advantage over just one small cop. There were four cops with guns, Floyd was cuffed and on the ground. In this situation size did not matter because the cops had control.
How does this explain or excuse Chauvin kneeling on the man's neck for nine minutes when he was posing no threat? He had armed officers surrounding so just what threat was Floyd capable of exactly? None is what.
Since you have never arrested even one person in your life I am sure you have never tussled with a 6’4” man on drugs who resisted arrest. Stay home in your lazy boy and Monday morning quarterback since that is all you have and know.
Quite right, I haven't. Haven't knelt on a guy's neck for nine minutes for no good reason with armed colleagues on standby either.
Not according to the coroner who stated that if Floyd had been found dead in a locked house the level of fentanyl in his system would have made a diagnosis of opiod overdose a no brainer.
Had Floyd not passed counterfeit bills, Floyd would still be alive today.
After reviewing all of the facts and evidence of the case, I can state with a high degree of medical certainty that George Floyd did not die from a primary cardiac event, and he did not die from a drug overdose," Rich testified.
The cardiologist said there was no evidence to suggest an overdose caused Floyd's death, even though a toxicology report showed the presence of the opiate fentanyl in his blood.
"Number 1, it appeared to me that Mr. Floyd, who was an acknowledged frequent chronic user of substances, particularly opiates, likely developed a high degree of tolerance," he said.
Floyd Did Not Die from Heart Attack or Drug Overdose, Cardiologist Says
Physician says that had Floyd not been pinned to the ground by a policeman, 'he would have survived that day'www.voanews.com
Got ya, you have never done much except talk.
That would apply to you in turn on here. I note that you still haven't addressed how it was seemingly all okay for Chauvin to kneel on a man's neck for nine minutes while he had no reason to, namely the fact that he had armed colleagues right there with him. The police aren't above the law themselves.
You weren’t there you have no clue. You are following the narrative and agenda of the left simple as that.
Neither were you unless you were part of the onlookers? Else, you once again fail to address how it was possibly justifiable for Chauvin to kneel on Floyd's neck for nine minutes where he posed no threat as he had colleagues who were armed right there with him at the scene.
Asked and answered several times.
You haven't answered this on point even the once. If Chauvin was by himself and had to use extreme restraining measures in order to protect himself and others from potential harm then a case can be made that subduing Floyd via kneeling on his neck could be justified in order to incapacitate until help arrived. That help was already there in the form of armed police at the scene however. So how were Chauvin's actions justifiable?
