I wouldn't donate to it and I think he killed the guy unintentionally, but there's going to be an interesting argument that he was using approved police procedure to subdue a suspect.

That's why I have been advocating that we are having the wrong conversation. We need to take a step back as a society and realize that we are giving authority to detain, arrest and use lethal force to a few people that are all around scum. Law enforcement needs a higher bar to enter.

I am pretty sure that all of the reports have said that he wasn’t using proper police procedure. From what I have read your knee is supposed to be across the shoulder blades and not on the suspect’s neck.

I agree this could be coming into play BUT to me there was a mindset he had that he was going to make it a point to kneel on Floyd as long as he felt like he wasn't caving in to the pressure of the bystanders to get off him. By golly he was going to be calling the shots on that situation because he had the power and he'd be damned if he was going to get up off Floyd because the witnesses were telling him to. That's where things went totally wrong...his power tripping attitude.

Agree, but this guys full opportunity to present his version of the truth and a defense in the law must be given him.

Since the Obama insurrection activity, it is becoming harder and harder to recruit police.
