George Floyd died of a panic attack. He told the officers the truth, he couldn't breath

He also told them about his phobia and they ignored it since they are not medical pro's. Some one without claustrophobia cannot grasp the panic of being in a small and or confined space. Or even the person suffering the attack's perception of same. And it comes and goes. I have it. I won't go off into personal experience as it is none of anyone's business. But his anxiety attack induced a heart attack. He was not resisting the officer's per se, his body was in full panic mode. Lane was correct when he remarked about his strange behavior. He also had signs of other anxiety phobia's.

The drugs MAY have contributed to his panic but only as a contributing factor. Or maybe none at all. They certainly contributed to his being in the spot he was in legally. And this is not a defense of the police (nor Floyd) and their choke holds and other methods of restraint. Those things are for someone else to figure out. I would tend to say some of that is illegal and much is not necessary. But they can be in a tough spot.

Would George Floyd be alive if (A) he had not passed counterfeit or if (B) the police had not come after him? Yes. But he would also 100% be alive had he not had that anxiety attack.
