    It was pretty brutal what the police did to that guy. Hopefully they get locked up for a long time. Don't care if the guy was innocent or not, definitely not appropriate way of holding a suspect.

    The police basically murdered him. Obviously he's a black man that was killed by white an Asian cops.

    Was there any actual evidence of racist motivation or were they just thug cops?


    Seen the riots. Clearly not observing social distancing. I think thats going to claim a chunk more innocent lives.

    An autopsy needs to be done. If he could say I can't breath repeatedly the knee was not blocking his airway. It is possible he was having a heart attack. Just saying...

    I suppose you never know. More information and an enquiry is needed for sure

    The policemen who did this are thugs. I'm glad they've been fired and I hope they go to trial for this man's death. If George Floyd died from a heart attack, it was caused by having a knee on his throat.
    I'd have a heart attack too, if a grown man's weight was on my throat.

    I agree I do think the police should treat the protesters a lot harsher . Dogs, tear gas , riot gear, rubber bullets, whatever it takes to get these silly people back into their houses.

    The police needs to stop the protesters by any means they can. To much is at stake and slowing the spread of the virus takes precedence over everything.

    The ironic thing about the protesters claiming lives matter, well a lot of them are going to be going home with the virus and spreading it to their loved ones and killing the people they care about.

    It's really sad that they will responsible for the huge spike in deaths in their own community. I don't know if it's supidity or what but a lot of people are going to die as a result of the protests.

    Totally not worth it in my opinion.

    The cop is in custody now and appropriate justice will be served.

    As for the rioters spreading the virus, acting out in violence and destroying the community hopefully justice will also come to them.

    To be fair the overwhelming magority of police do an amazing job. I really don't get the anti police brigade.

    I think it's very disrespectful and office to call police "pigs" at the end of the day they are the people that you will be calling to save your ass if things get bad.

    • Autopsy findings:
    • "no physical findings that support a diagnosis of traumatic asphyxia or strangulation."
    • Floyd died from a "combined effect of being restrained, his underlying health conditions, and any potential intoxicants in his system,"

    Still murdered regardless of cause of death. Not that I'm saying you are disputing that.

    the independent autopsy disputes all of this. mechanical asphyxiation is the cause according to them.
