Did you see a gun in the face of the other two occupants ? Were they black ? What were they saying to George Floyd ?
Learn from it, the policemen involved should be in jail. On the same subject until they have radical gun reform innocent people will continue to be murdered by the police.It starts like a game of simon says...
Lemme see your hands, put them on the wheel, put them on your head...
I've been pulled over by an american cop, albeit on a naval base but it's very intimidating (as it should be to encourage compliance) so I can understand a black guy with previous being concerned for his safety...
Hes a big unit to be stuffed in the back of the car then dragged out... was he really resisting?...
Its started a chain reaction now, I just hope they can learn from this...
This one:Saw one reported the other day a motorcycle had been stolen & recovered months ago but the Police computer hadn't been updated. A minivan with an out of state plate pings the cops APNR as the stolen motorcycle.
Police do a 'hot stop', force the vehicle to stop & all occupants out of the car at gun point, face down on the road & cuffed while they sort it out. Turns out it was just a mum & her three children on a day out, youngest 6 years old wearing a pink crown.
The Chief of Police said 'Hot Stops' aren't police policy, officers have discretion to do a normal stop but can do one when they've identified a suspected threat from the vehicle.
I wonder what it was about a mum & her three kids that made the officers think it was required in this situation?
A large number of American citizens carry guns.Why were they pointing guns at any of them?

It should be intimidating, what a crock
The main perpetrator is in jail and will rightly get a long sentence for his indefensible crime - just so I am clear on thatLearn from it, the policemen involved should be in jail. On the same subject until they have radical gun reform innocent people will continue to be murdered by the police.
