This cop was fucked over anybody who thinks the way this played out was fair or just is a fucking retard.
If the police never showed up that day George Floyd would still be dead. He was a dead man walking when the cops were called. He was going to die at THAT moment in time. Not because the cop was using a control technique but because he overdosed on a cocktail of lethal drugs.
You can't talk while being choked. The knee on the neck didn't kill him. He was saying he "couldn't breathe " from the moment the cops arived. Why? Because he was having a heart attack. He wasn't getting oxygenated blood because his heart failed. Not because he was being choked to death. Are you fucking stupid?
Here's the thing. People like Peime are jackass crackers. Whose liberal white guilt causes them to not be able to think. Dumbasses like Prime think Chauvin is a problem. Chauvin poses no threat to you or society at large and certainly far less of a problem than George Felon.
Prime, how do you think you would fare if you bumped into Chauvin at your local jack shack at 3 am? Now what about your chances with Floyd?
I remember when I relocated to PNW about 8 years ago I saw that you lived in Lake O. You said, then, "Portland is a shithole" I saw a beautiful city with a great downtown beautiful views, close to ocean, close to mt. Hood, close to Columbia river gorge. I asked you why is it a shithole and you referenced the drugs, homelessness, crime etc... that shit was almost nonexistent back then.
Now after the sham Chauvin trial and every sack of shit in the country has descended on Portland and took a gigantic shit on the city, and homelessness is about 20 or 30 x worse and drugs are exacerbated by decriminalization and overdoses are through the roof and the homicide rate has quadrupled, you have the nerve to defend it! You actually talk about what a great place it is. Ha!
You, like all the other self-loathing white liberals have been conditioned to think that way. No sense of dignity, no sense of self preservation, no sense of rational self interest. You don't even know the atrocities committed by the so-called peaceful protesters because the Portland (or Seattle or san Francisco or any left coast mecca) media and government is controlled by dumbasses like yourself.
