    In a sense, no. Floyd put himself in the position he was in. Drugs, crime and fake dollar bills allowed the stars to align. His neck just aligned with the wrong cop at the wrong time. Everyone is responsible for their actions and outcomes. Floyd is just as guilty as the officer.

    There was something posted here earlier about that restraint being a standard procedure for a certain medical distress and that these cops discussed that during the situation

    Of course it matters because he was in police custody. But most everything going on that is based on the incident, is based on the idea of white cop killing black man by kneeling on him. The fact is, it looks like the act of kneeling on him didn’t kill him. At least, it will now be very difficult to prove otherwise. I never watched the original video because I simply don’t need to watch a man dying, but were EMS ever called? If not, that may be the only thing they could go after the cops for.

    It's gonna matter to the judge or jury that lets BadCop off and ignites that largest rioting sequence in American history.
    There is no outcome to the trial that will satisfy the woke mob. It's why you can't pander to mobs.

    Idk if it’s gonna be a hate crime for a white cop to shoot a black guy, that’s my solution. Ya gotta send in a brother to handle things.

    By my estimation: All you need to do as a black person in the USA for every black person in the USA is to loot Eight $4,000 Gucci bags a year, without penalty. Eight Guccis, because you can't just give a dollar number as the years progress (You couldn't even loot $4,000 back in Buzz generation if you stole the entire store.)

    45 million blacks in the USA, assuming 32 Gucci bags per Gucci store, means you only have to loot 11 million Gucci stores, haha.

    Or you could give every black person in the USA 40 acres of land - for free. It would be *by far easier* to put a white man on Mars than to give land to a black man. I mean, if you are white man complaining about productivity of the black man - how about divvying up the unproductive land? (Like that would ever happen in the USA)

    That would even things fairly well. Got a long way to go, marathon looting doesn't loot itself.

    81% of Black Americans want police to spend same amount of or more time in their area
    Is BLM really representing the vast majority of black community?

    As with any vocal and angry extreme leftists, they represent a small minority.

    Thing is: A lot of black prosperity in the USA came at the cost of prosperity in other nations of the world, including black nations.

    Rome was great, the closer you were to Rome itself. So in many ways, a USA black persons view is completely different than a poor African under different circumstances. Does an Black African view a Black USA citizen as being from a completely different planet?

    I think the main issue here is that police are not trained to deal with people on drugs and mental problems. I do not believe in Canada it's not race related, just look at the Anthony Heffernan case here in Calgary. He was white, on drugs, no weapons, coudln't understand the police instructions so they shot him 5 times.

    A lot of police are trained in a fashion where if you don't obey they have the right to use any force but what they can't do is determine situations where force isn't needed. Some people on drugs for whatever reason just need help and they can't understand police instructions and if approached to be handcuffed that can lead to paranoid state that is fight or flight, they don't know the police are trying to help them. What makes it worse is that this has been happening for a long time with no change in police training.

    The bigger issue becomes that it doesn't matter what logical cause you ascribe to the situation. The insanely racist left will turn around and say that minorities are more likely to be in these types of predicaments, so it's still racism.
