The death of George Floyd (being precise here, since, I hate to tell you, the verdict of the medical examiner at this point does not note a 'killing', nor the verdict of a court of law hasnt been rendered, but you knew that and *still* use the term 'killing' as the lede) is horrible, the treatment of him as he was being restrained seemingly *is* very facially an act of police misconduct even if at the very least it was an assault that *didnt* cause his death (i.e. your killing term).

LOLOLOLOL. That cop didn't kill him. He just happened to have a heart attack which would TOTALLY have happened anyway whether or not there were four cops sitting on him for ten minutes (and one with his knee in his neck).

I prefer facts, 93. Not suppositions. Should be simple. Apparently not.

By the way 93, you have some facts wrong. Actually numerous.

One cop sat on him. One cop did crowd control. One cop held his leg, and prior to the apparent distress moved away. Another cop restrained Floyd with a single hand on the small of the back.

Chauvin sat in that position for 8 minutes, 30 seconds, not ten minutes.

I suggest you re-edit your historonics about 'four cops sitting on on him for ten minutes.'

Good fing grief. One statement, 3 errors about the cops and one error on the time. Awesome job there.

Quote:Whether or not the pathologist said asphyxiation, whatever pathologic process ended his life was directly related to what those cops did to him.

I am glad you are substituting your expert medical and pathologic knowledge for that of a........ medical professional. And a....... pathologist. Do you play an attorney on TV as well to enamor us with your expert legal opinions as well? Perhaps you should with the angle you are taking above.

In short you say 'I dont give a fk what an expert pathologist says is the cause of death, I will substitute my own opinion.' That really takes the cake there '93. Just awesome.

Quote: Do you really think this is in doubt?

I will form my opinion based on the medical evidence. Not neceessarily on some douchebag board poster's opinion and his inherent belief without the medical evidence. Sound like plan?

I will respond to the rest later when I have time, but I thought you take great offense to ad homs? I’m confused.
