Any reason for the knee when the man is in cuffs.

This needs to be about cleaning up police behavior and not about race

Floyd spit in the cops face


Is that the Police protocol? If a suspect spits in your face kneel on their neck until they suffocate?

For example, Floyd spit in the cops face so why hasnt that footage been on CNN or MSNBC?


Source? Or is this just something you’re making up as an example?

They lock me up because I’d have possibly killed someone..danger to society and all, like the cops in the video are..they could kill someone else while this is investigated.




This is dumb.

The argument to arrest him now is that there is already enough evidence to do so.

It's not that someone is dead therefore an arrest must be made.

Why did he die?

Heart attack?

Restricted air flow because his airway was restricted?

Could he not expand his chest enough laying on hit to expand his lungs and take in oxygen?

Let’s wait till that is known to determine who is at fault.

Certainly a knee on the neck of a man that ends up dead is bad optics. But let’s wait to see if that’s the cause of death

If they dont get charged shits going to get ugly.

This is a bad position to be in for the city if the officers actually weren't responsible somehow.

If you were a Somali police officer who killed a white woman you wouldn't be charged until this January.

NEW: Minnesota prosecutor says video showing George Floyd's death is "terrible" but says there's "other evidence that does not support a criminal charge"

So is the prosecutor saying he doesn't think what happened was at least a battery charge considering the dude kept his knee of his neck for over 3 minutes after he went unconscious?

That cop should be arrested. Period, bottom line.

If deep state is involved, I won’t be surprised that he isn’t dead and it was all staged. Maybe they were all in on it including George.

A bombshell statement from a county law enforcement official during a media briefing about charges in the death of George Floyd drew immediate outrage and backlash on social media.

Hennepin County Attorney Mike Freeman said Thursday that charges were not yet filed against the police officer that caused Floyd's death because of "other evidence" that did not support the filing of criminal charges.

Freeman said at the media briefing that the county needed to carefully investigate and not rush to judgement, despite the public clamoring for the office to be charged.

"It's a violation of my ethics to talk and evaluate evidence before we announcing our charging decision and I will not do that. I will say this, that video is graphic and horrific and terrible, and no person should do that, but my job in the end is to prove that he violated criminal statues," Freeman said.

"And there is other evidence that does not support a criminal charge." he added.

"We need to wade through all of that evidence and come to a meaningful determination," he concluded, "and we are doing that to the best of our ability."
