I want to update my rant on the cop who killed George Floyd. I still believe that he committed murder, but as info comes in it appears to me that it’s more likely that he will either be acquitted or given a slap on the wrist either of which will result in another round of anarchy. The antifa thugs don’t give a rat’s ass about Floyd. They just want an excuse to try to overturn our government.
Michael Baden, the celebrity medical examiner to the stars, did his own autopsy and concluded that Floyd was strangled. The Minneapolis coroner said something quite different but now says Floyd’s death was a homicide. I agree but the more that there are conflicting opinions the more likely that the cop will skate.
And don’t forget, as I previously pointed out, the Minneapolis Police manual expressly allows a knee to the neck as a means to subdue and detain a suspect as long as it doesn’t effect the windpipe. Even more importantly, I saw a report today that over the past two or three years there were I think 200+ cases where Minneapolis Police used knees to the neck to subdue suspects, and in 40 of those cases the suspect passed out but didn’t die. All of this will come out at trial to the cops benefit.
Lastly don’t forget that Minneapolis has been a Democratic bastion for at least fifty years and the police chief reports to the mayor. Therefore if there is racism in the pd, it’s the Dems who are to blame.
