They see " white cop kills black man " I see
An American citizen who allowed a public servant to handcuff and detain him, willingly, then being strangled to death in the middle of the street, should be first degree imo, wbu? 🤔

There was no evidence of strangulation. The knee to the back of the neck is a commonly used police tactic in controlling the person being detained. the man died from excited delirium which could have happened while being driven to the police station for processing.

@Piffypie Nope. the autopsy report says otherwise and from the video I watched I would agree with the report. Had the man been strangled he would have died long before he did. Excited delirium is deadly. This cop is an idiot for ignoring his buddy's advise. However the cop did not murder or strangle the guy. He died of a heart attack. It happens more often than you realize and not just among humans. Animals have been known to suddenly die from 'panic'. I grew up on a ranch and one of the jobs we had was to tag the calf for identification purposes. A job done hundreds and thousands of times a year. I caught a calf and was about to tag it when I realized it was dead. Died from panic. I had a yearling that was extremely spooky. I was moving the cattle from one pen to another when it dropped dead from panic. It happens.

@Curiousguy833 There was a full transcript of what happened on the web the other day. The guy had passed a fake $20.00. He was sitting in a car around the corner when the cops arrived. The kneeling cop was not there at this point. The guy was eventually convinced to get out of his car and was handcuffed. After a few moments the cops took him to their car and told him to get in the back seat. He refused saying he was claustrophobic. When the cops started to physically insert him in the car he started to complain that he couldn't breathe. He then fell to the ground as the other cop car pulled up. The four cops couldn't get him in the car so the cop knelt on the back of his neck I assume to establish dominance. Anther cop suggested he get off his neck because he thought the guy was having an excited delirium episode. The man later died likely of excited delirium. The kneeling cop is not very bright and likely should have been fired several years ago but stupid didn't kill the man.

@hippyjoe1955 there was maybe 4 cops minimum there and they had the guy under control even if he didn’t want to go into the cop car.
When he said he can’t breath and begging for his mom and there was another cop just standing near by with people recording saying things like “ He’s unresponsive” etc “let him breath” and the standing cop says his “his fine”
KNOWING that another “suspect” died from a similar situation. Don’t you think the cop or “cops” should have acted better seeing the situation was under control? There was more then one cop there and many people watching.
Why didnt his colleagues say or do something? Doesn’t that say something? There are good cops. I know this but.... THAT cop murdered that guy and the other cops didn’t do anything because you have to back up your colleague. Thats mafia Mentality

@hippyjoe1955 Here is a paste from another post-mortem...
George Floyd, the African-American man whose death has sparked civil unrest, died from asphyxia (lack of oxygen), a private post-mortem examination found.
He died due to compression on his neck and back by Minneapolis police officers, medical examiners hired by the Floyd family said.
The findings differ from an official preliminary autopsy carried out by the county medical examiner.
It did not find evidence of "traumatic asphyxia or strangulation".
"The cause of death in my opinion is asphyxia, due to compression to the neck - which can interfere with oxygen going to the brain - and compression to the back, which interferes with breathing," said Michael Baden, a former New York City medical examiner who was one of two doctors hired by Mr Floyd's family.

@walabby........................... "The cause of death in my opinion is asphyxia, due to compression to the neck - which can interfere with oxygen going to the brain - and compression to the back, which interferes with breathing,"
Wow. I would have thought this statement speaks for its self but maybe am wrong lol.
Do you know the original police report submitted by the police for this incident? Before the videos etc came out? Was it right?... was it wrong based on the evidence? Why did they lie in the first place if they were right all along?
