Not going to debate whether X, Y or Z died at the hands of police. The overall blatant fact is the number of people that died in a police interaction is tiny. The poor black community has a proportionally far larger issue with huge crime/death rate, and THAT is independent of "white racist police". The worst enemy of poor blacks IS other poor blacks. These riots are inspired BLM to destroy our society, not fix racism or do ANYTHING positive.I don’t believe there is any way to satisfy black leadership in this country. They make their living on promoting white racism. Many whites are bending over for blacks, in the hope of solving the problem. It won’t work. We elected a black man twice to the highest office, in the hopes of healing our past. It didn’t work either.To say changes are needed.. okay. To weed out inept, incompetent, abusive and sadistic people...okay. To understand that they are humans and not computers is important. Will there be forgiveness to any who have screwed over citizens in the past and both cop/retiree and citizen are still alive is a tough one. Memories can last past the grave. You yourself go back several centuries.But the contention here is that the actions the police took did not kill him. He apparently was not dying before the police kneeled on his neck for 8:46 seconds. He did not die on that day because he supposedly had fentanyl in his system or arteriosclerosis. If I get shot in the head, I'll die of cardiac arrest, but cardiac arrest is not why I died. If that man was unable to breathe and he died, it didn't matter if he was in perfect condition. He did not die of fentanyl OD or arteriosclerosis.That can be true at the same time as the drugs and arteriosclerosis being a contributing factor.LOOK, if the knee was not on his neck cutting off his breath he would not have died.I’m pretty sure the ME said both of those were contributing factors.No, that's your lie. Floyd did not die of those things.Died from a fentanyl overdose and a pre existing health condition. Cops had nothing to do with it. Another BLM lie. Oh, yes, Daniel Prude. Died 5 days AFTER he was taken into police custody. And the BLM lies go and on.
