Its probably against police protocol to actively fight other cops who are applying unnecessary force during an arrest.
To the contrary, I’m almost certain that everY law enforcement agency in the United States has policies that require their officers to do exactly that if a fellow officer is violating someone’s constitutional rights.

Yeah. It's pretty much a certainty he was going to be arrested they fired the guy in like 5 minutes. It's not like they circled the wagons

I'd say less than 10% of this board.
I wonder what percent of progressive forums, like DA, are defending the looters?
More than "plenty" I'd bet.

3rd degree doesn't require intent:
It doesn’t require intent to cause death. But the officers intent to disregard life or put someone in an eminently dangerous situation is relevant.

know that if I put my full weight on a person's neck for 6+ minutes I have the potential to kill him. He should know that as well.
Of course he should. But, all he has to say is that he didn’t realize his knee was on his neck or restricting his airway, or that he did not believe there was any eminent danger, etc.
I’m just playing devils advocate here, of course, but never underestimate the creativity of a good defense attorney and their ability to gaslight at least one juror.

Ok, not gonna win you over but if the playbook is to call black people racist, then please proceed.

Straw man. You could argue that if the victim wasn’t being investigated for using counterfeit bills, then he is arrested. It is a dumb argument, just like the BS that you are spewing.
In short, you don’t know but still insist on acting as though you do. Like I said, you are coming across as an emotional wreck.
Prayers to Mr. Floyd’s family and I want to see that cop do time.

They will have to show that kneeling on the guy was eminently dangerous, and that the officer knew that and disregarded that risk. Not saying that’s impossible, it’s just something that is tough to prove beyond reasonable doubt. All the officer has to say is that he didn’t realize his knee was closing off his airway and that his impression was that he was kneeling on Floyd’s back. Like I said, just leaves wiggle room for the defense to play with.
Those defenses are still about what he knew or realized. This charge makes that irrelevant. This charge is purely about the actions taken.

Yes. He was administratively fired before the protests. You’re so fricking stupid that it hurts.

Dan Bongino pointed it out pretty clearly. He said if you watch the video the cop did not have his other foot or knee supported on the ground meaning he had his full body weight directed onto the neck of the man. A reasonable person would know doing this for 6 minutes could likely result in a person's death.

When I tell you to frick off, it is wrong. What charge?

Unequivocally yes. Absolutely 1000000% yes. He was going to be arrested regardless of the riots and protests.
A better question would be whether he would have been arrested if there were no videos of the incident.

Being the most racist person on the board which he most certainly is will tend to make you incapable of interpreting information
They fired the dude the second they saw the video.
His arse was cooked from that moment

This is correct and the defense will roll picture after picture of policemen kneeling on backs/shoulders/necks that did not result in deaths along with testimony from policemen that have routinely used this method to gain control of individuals without it resulting in death.

and it may seem a small thing but his hands being in his pockets I think is going to end up being a big deal
It's going to make arguing that he felt Floyd was still a threat very challenging.
