The media, the democrats, the jews, George Soros, etc, all want people to believe that George Floyd's death is a racial issue. It is NOT. They want BLACK against WHITE, when it should really be US against THEM.
Cops, government, FBI, CIA, etc have too much authority and they abuse it, plain and simple. They also have immunity so there are no consequences for them even if they are caught, and usually they are not caught because they cover it up. Cops have killed black people. Cops have killed white people. Cops kill people because they can, they sign up for the job because they are mentally ill and love to abuse authority. It's what draw them to the profession. This is a PEOPLE versus GOVERNMENT issue.
Don't get me wrong. George Floyd was a nigger and he was a criminal, and most definitely a bad dude, but he had rights. We all have rights. (((THEY))) want to take away our rights. Contact tracing, CCTV, more surveillance, more police, access to internet records without a warrant, etc. There needs to be outrage, but the outrage is misdirected. The media wants you to look at police as a symbol of white supremacy. In fact, one of the 4 police officers involved was Asian, and there are plenty of black police officers. Not all police are white, and not all police brutality is committed by white officers against black civilians. Police commit brutality against civilians. Period. Look at what happened to that harmless white girl in the stormtrooper uniform in Canada. The media wants you to believe it doesn't happen to white people, but it does! They have turned this into a racial issue in order to misdirect you from the REAL problem, which is a GOVERNMENT AUTHORITY versus PEOPLE'S RIGHTS issue.

They were arresting him because he had passed a fake bill at the store. He was clearly high on drugs and appeared to be likely to drive while intoxicated and endanger public safety if the police had not responded and arrested him. He resisted the arrest.
Given those facts, how could you claim that this had anything to do with the rights of the people?

Just breaking laws does not mean all your rights are no longer valid.
WORF_MOTORBOATS_TROI ago
Explain how his rights were violated.

Did you edit to his or do I just read shitty?
His right to life being the main one here. He is accused until found guilty. Even though we know he is quilty. As far as I can tell the cop was on his neck to prove how badass he was. Car is next to him. No other valid reason to keep on grd with knee on neck. As far as the I can't breath or my leg or my arm, shitheads always cry about something so eh. Still have to get them checked out though.
We don't have law enforcement we have a police FORCE. As in military force. There are still good cops but our system is corrupt. No knock raids on wrong houses were cops legally murder innocents (Mostly white).

Why would you assume about something so important how you perceive it? The knee on the neck is a way to restrain a suspect who's fighting you. It's a common technique. The press keeps saying "it isn't one that is taught or recommended by minneapolis police" but it is one that they allow which it says in this link. This thread https://voat.co/v/funny/3857500 shows others using the technique and discusses the technique in the comments.
He was being legally arrested. He was resisting arrest. The officer used a permitted and common non-lethal restraint technique to subdue the suspect so that he could be arrested. His death was unforeseeable, and not an expected outcome of the technique that was used. They use this technique because it's less dangerous than the sleeper hold or smacking the guy over the head with a blackjack. At worst, the officer should be charged with involuntary manslaughter for taking too long to check on the well-being of the suspect after he went unconscious.

Cuffed 2 or more cops 9 minutes. If he is resisting that much why not toss him in the car right next to them.
I make that assumption based on the statistics of cops and abuse of power and how often their system protects the bad ones while ousting good cops
