    Some of the picture that you’re conveniently omitting:

    George Floyd was a violent thug with a history which was known by Derek, so the situation was confirmed high risk for him (not even counting the unruly mob they had to contend with).

    George complained about not being able to breathe while being escorted to the vehicle.

    At that moment; medical was called for which is why they arrived on sceen (attempting to save his life).

    George refused to get in the car and at his suggestion they laid him on the ground outside.

    Derek’s knee to the neck was protocol and what he was trained to do that they lied about in court.

    There’s conflicting testimonies about what actually killed him, but let’s not forget that he was complaining about not being able to breathe while still standing before a struggle, (which used up oxygen) which was his choice. He was also affected by Covid.

    So stop with the propaganda.

      I didn’t mention Floyd. The fact you have to put words in my mouth and then argue against them proves that you know you’re wrong.
