So gross and hard to watch that by the end. The way he kept his knee on him even after he was unconscious for minutes not saying a word/moving at all. Shameful :bored:

When the guy is pleading he can't breathe, at least ease up on him / stay away from his head/neck. The way they're positioned, it's not like he couldn't just get the guy in the same position if he tried something. Just a sick act

The Minnesota protests however resulted in smashed windows, people throwing rocks and bricks at police cars, and an officer getting injured, i.e. the type of behaviour which makes police respond.

The police had to form a blockade in front of the offices to stop the protestors storming in and grabbing the governor, whilst they were all carrying guns.

I watched the video of that woman with the dog and it infuriated me. A black man challenges her and she cries on the phone to try and get the firing squad on him.

I'm so glad her life has been ruined because she tried to weaponise the police to bring harm on someone, it was honestly eerie and sociopathic how she quickly turned into a blubbering mess and tried to make out that she was in danger. I hope she ends up in prison.

Kneeling on someone's neck, ignoring their cries that they are struggling to breathe, ignoring the fact they have lost consciousness and not even removing your knee after you've killed them is a strange idea of an "accident".

Pretty much all perps say the cuffs are too tight, I can't breathe. It's s common call and cops have been known to relent only to be attacked or shot as the perp grabs this gun.

Yes, "perps" often have a pair of cuffs around their neck don't they. Or do they breathe through their wrists in Murica?

[user104658]

You can't put weight on any part of someone's neck for more than a few seconds and not risk causing serious injury. On this occasion, I seriously hope you're "joking" or deliberately being obtuse and actually know that. I feel like everyone must know that? I honestly don't know why you would pretend not to. All it does is make you look painfully, in fact in this instance dangerously, stupid.

Thankfully the officers have been sacked and will hopefully face criminal convictions and can spend a lot of time thinking about whether or not he was sat on the man's windpipe and caused his death. It will be no consolation to the family but a little bit of closure.

the moderators on this site need to stop being so blind to LeatherTrumpet's racist trolling. It's been evident for quite some while.

At the most it's embarrassing to witness a older individual like himself taking time out of his daily life to spread the tedious topics on a big brother forum and actively respond to any justified backlash with "stay on topic!" distracting away from the fact that he's a horrid racist.

I’m not even one to scream police brutality & racism at every given situation but this is on the high end of the racist & awful act spectrums. It’s still bad regardless when lives are lost obviously but this is one of the worst and most blatantly wrong of these situations that I’ve ever seen. There are certain cases that deserve justice and outrage and backlash on police stepping over their boundaries, this one probably more than ever. Don’t see how anyone could defend it in any way. The guy was helpless on the ground and the cop never let up at any point. Not sure if that knee to neck position is even allowed or necessary but to stay that way for mins on the guy, even past consciousness, is unacceptable & literally murder. :bored:

How many hundred year olds were involved in those riots?

[AnnieK]

I worked in the states in 1996, in South Carolina abd there was still a massive white / black divide then. I was with some friends who had car trouble when we were on a road trip and we took the car to the garage and the owner would only talk to me (I was the only white person). Apparently, had I not been with them the car would not have been fixed. It shocked me at the time how blatant this guy was but they said that kind of treatment was just the tip of the iceberg.

It's straight up murder. It's as simple as that. The thug who MURDERED George Floyd deserves every charge thrown against him, and the other officer (also any others involved off camera) needs to be held accountable too. The world is truly ****ed with people like this occupying it.

I know people should never get involved with police business, but if incidents like this continue to happen, then I really hope the members of the public take matters into their own hands and prevent another murder by any means necessary.

[Jigs]

Some responses in this thread are so nauseating. This man died with his face on the concrete because someone else misused their power. And yet, "shocking" as it is, it keeps happening because we all let it.

Can we change the thread title to feature George Floyd's name? The title "Cops kill another black guy" is a bit too vague.

Yes the now Ex Cop killed him.

If only that Criminal never

as its normal for stores to contact Police
right away.

[Ramsay]

There's a thread on Reddit asking police officers how they feel about this case and others like it..
https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/comments/grst2b/police_officers_of_reddit_what_are_you_thinking/

One of the top comments is:
Retired after 28 years. Nothing less than murder. All the guys I worked with would never have considered doing something like that. You treat combative in-custodies once they’re secured as human beings. Nothing should be personal. Once they’ve been subdued and you are safe as an officer, you stand him up, pat him down and understand that your arrestee is at a low point in his life. Give him some dignity and you’ll generally get his respect. It works 90+% of the time.

That man was subdued and nobody should have been on him at that point.

I see there's riots going on in Minneapolis and honestly at this stage after years and years and yeaaars of this kind of discrimination, I don't ****in blame them

Simply not being racist isn’t enough at this point in time. I won’t rant and rave about how you’re reeking in white male privilege but silence is part of the issue and if you can’t understand that I hope you never come into any personal relationships with any person of colour.

"stupid" is debatable. As I said, I don't always agree with him but calling people "stupid" and "racist" is worse than anything he has said when he literally just gives his opinion and people jump on the bandwagon to try and come for him...

Calling this incident an "accident" is not an opinion, it's stupid.

Saying everyone who is disgusted by his trolling of a sickening murder is "jumping on the bandwagon" doesn't change it.

[caprimint]

Whether you think it's "stupid" or not literally doesn't change the fact it's still your opinion lol

The only thing I think that is 'disgusting' here is the fact that somebody can't have a differing view on the situation (that I also highly disagree with too) instead of being personally attacked. Seriously guys...

Well they're not not-thugs, that behaviour is clearly thuggish, but language like that doesn't help.

Same goes for controlling the riots - yes, obviously there should have been swifter and more effective responses, but "when the looting starts, the shooting starts", really?!

Acting as if it's because the mayor is a "leftie" ism't going to win anyone over either.

All he's doing there is joining the rioters in pissing on George's grave.

[Samm]

The rioters have every right to be violent, black african americans have and still face oppression. They’re literally being killed. The system forces violence upon them so the establishment is met with violence.

Most the people trying to brush off their ignorance as a “different opinion” I’m going to guess now are probably mostly white and heterosexual. You have no idea what it’s like to being oppressed or be a minority.

No, he triggered the rioting, attacked a woman and then left.

The looting is wrong, there are always people who use things like this as an opportunity to get free ****, however, a lot of this could be solved by charging the copper for the murder he committed, threatening to shoot and kill black people because they’re angry over injustice is insane

There's not a "start riots button", everyone who got involved decided to do so themselves. He may have threw the first figurative brick, but he's not responsible for the actions of others.

They march peacefully and they’re called intimidating and aggressive
They kneel during the national anthem and they’re called disrespectful ‘sons of bitches’
They talk about racism and they’re called race baiters intent on division
They riot and they’re called thugs

They can’t do anything without being seen as the menace, they’re just expected to sit back and accept that people are allowed to see them as expendable, that’s not acceptable, everyone is allowed to voice disapproval, unless they happen to be black, white people can storm government buildings, abuse police officers and nobody bats an eyelid, but peaceful black protesters are treated like criminals every single time, America has and always will be institutionally racist, people don’t have to accept it though, you corner a demographic for so long, at some point, they’re gonna snap and bite back, you really reap what you sow

[armand.kay]

Expecting black American to react non violently to police taking their lives with impunity is just funny to me. This has been going on for years and nothing is changing. what are they meant to do these are there lives that are being taken. They have a right to be angry.

If you can't take a bit of light trolling and/or exploring both sides of an issue, then maybe the internet isn't for you :)

Calling him a racist for saying what amounts to "we shouldn't jump to conclusions" is more vile than anything he's said, whether he means it or not.

(the cop is obviously a murderer, and should face justice for it, and it looks like he will)

[Jessica.]

The thing is, black people in America don't feel protected by authority all the time and when you live like that it really affects you. I am not surprised that people are doing things like rioting and looting because if you already feel like the police are breathing down your neck and looking for one mistake or something they could play off as a wrongdoing and could take you out at any moment it wouldn't feel like a stretch to actually make a scene to make a point since you're feeling like nobody is listening to you anyway.

Not entirely inaccurate:
If you "can't breathe", are you able to say so?

No. If you have legitimately stopped breathing completely, you are not taking in any oxygen and therefore cannot inhale the breath required to speak. Think about it in the same way you might think about being under water and holding your breath . In the seconds just before going under water.. Like Right Before you submerge both your nose and Mouth entirely under the water …you take one last deep breath in so that when you are under the water you'll still be able to breathe for a very Short amount of time .. Only till you run out of oxygen to breathe and must resurface in order to exhale and repeat the process again before youll be able to dive under the water again. The same thing happens when you stop breathing that happens if you're underwater and run out of breath before you can get to the surface … essentially when you stop breathing you just run out of breath… without the option of returning to the surface to correct the issue.

Also, this is a chance for the police to show solidarity with the BLM movement. Show them that most police are good people (like people keep on saying) and take a stand against brutality
But instead they stand against the rioters. I don’t care if it’s their job they are showing that pay cheque is more important that black lives. Protest against the people above you and show that you believe black lives matter!!

This isn't a street mob chat it's SD. You can't say the officer acted illegally when at the same time condemn him without a proper trial. It's illogical.


Earlier, Hennepin County Attorney Michael Freeman, giving an update to reporters on the case, said he must look at all evidence before bringing charges.
"My job in the end is to prove he violated a criminal statute. And there is other evidence that does not support a criminal charge. We need to wade through all of that evidence and come to a meaningful decision and we are doing that to the best of our ability."

This isn't a street mob chat it's SD. You can't say the officer acted illegally when at the same time condemn him without a proper trial. It's illogical.





Earlier, Hennepin County Attorney Michael Freeman, giving an update to reporters on the case, said he must look at all evidence before bringing charges.

"My job in the end is to prove he violated a criminal statute. And there is other evidence that does not support a criminal charge. We need to wade through all of that evidence and come to a meaningful decision and we are doing that to the best of our ability."



CNNI think you're a little caught up in the legalities there LT; people aren't condemning him for acting illegally, they're condemning him for acting immorally. By kneeling on a man's neck until he died. If there was no such thing as "law", this man would remain morally abhorrent.

I am referring to the use of language in the messy thread and the mob tones which inflame discord. Have an option but don't think you are so right (based on a clip) you are above the law.

Have an option but don't think you are so right (based on a clip) you are above the law.On the same note, it's a perfectly valid opinion to believe that the legal system is flawed and that legal conclusion doesn't necessarily reflect justice being served.

In fact, as ultimately it's a system of human design, it would be downright foolish to believe that the legal system of any country is beyond question.

I'm not advocating mob rule or vigilante justice, just pointing out that people are allowed to hold the opinion that this man is a piece of garbage, regardless of the legal conclusion.

I know police officers, I know prison officers, I don't know (and don't want to know) anyone who would deliberately kneel on someone's neck as a restraint option.

The only thing that could possibly make this horrible situation even slightly less awful is if the cop goes to jail with a maximum sentence for murder and then gets murdered himself while he is in there

Hang on Scott
the other Cops need to be stable

A woman said she employed both men in her club so it could potentially be some history there.

She also said the cop would pepper spray people for no reason

Racists will try to use the riots as an excuse to undermine the cause but then they do that even when the protest is peaceful anyone. 'He's kneeling?! TRAITOR! SCUM!' 'Oh, a bunch of white people are storming a government building with assault rifles? Sounds like a peaceful protest to me!'

When compliance and peaceful approaches don't work, protest with rage.

I would stand side by side with these protestors..

finally for me, apart from my protesting against paedos on the streets of london. This is a cause worth fighting

Yes after he said it was wrong.


And Twitter put a Warning
over those words now
The Looting is not about the Death, to Trumps mind.
