Serious question here: If Floyd died from neck compression as claimed.....

Depends whether he knew it was a fake $20 to begin with. We’ll probably never know that.

Floyd was sitting on the ground for a period of time after they removed him from his car. ZERO resistance. They marched him across the street where the death occurred. As he was pleading that he couldn’t breath, I saw no resistance. Did you?

All you've/we've seen is partial or possibly edited video.

Where is the video from between the time they stood him back up after sitting him down and the time we see him already in a prone position next to the cop car?

Have we seen the police body cam video yet?

No, we have not.
 
You defend racist cops ???
It was 100 percent murder and I am a T supporter
This poor guy is yelling for his life and the cop continues to apply the pressure and you defend him because why ??
I can only assume ??
We both know , why ??
 
You learned a new vocabulary word from me , a “dolt “
That is what you’re and a racist

A racist KKK member is better than any of these POS looters and rioters ... Most KKK members will live their live without breaking the law or setting a car business on fire!
 
I thought he couldn't breath? Well since thats been debunked

So what was the cause of death...since it wasn't asphyxia or strangulation

We’ll wait.

You’ve never been in a situation where you felt you couldn’t breathe? Choking on food or liquid? Couldn’t catch your breath?

You assholes are taking “I can’t breathe” literally to rationalize your bigotry.

We’ve seen the video of when he died, haven’t we? He was pinned down, knee on neck, pleading and gasping for air.

So you admit there are gaps in the video we've seen and as such, we don't know yet exactly why the officers had him pinned on the ground.

Good.

I'm glad that I could help you understand the significance of that. :thup:

Unless he died of a massive drug overdose, the cops were responsible for his death. That simple. Any gaps are irrelevant.
 
The real gap is the one between you and reality, doper.

The reality is that this guy is dead. And the cop is still kneeling on his neck AFTER he dies.

One more time, unless Floyd died of a massive drug overdose, the cops caused his death. Nothing to argue. Nothing to refute. Just fact.
 
....why was he able move and reposition his head and neck at various points?

I know this video only shows about one minute of an incident that lasted eight or nine minutes, but look closely at Chauvin's knee. He keeps relaxing or adjusting his weight, allowing Floyd to move his head around a little bit.

Most noticeably around the :37 point....


You can see Floyd reposition his head and Chauvin's knee seems moves a little to accommodate him as well.

So if Chauvin was intent on using lethal or brutal force on Floyd, why would he allow even the slightest movement of the head and neck?

Even by the sort of casual looking way Chavin seems to be crouched, it doesn't really look like he's bearing down on Floyd with all of his weight. One knee looks to be on the pavement behind Floyd, supporting most of his weight, the other is on the back of Floyd's head and neck and appears to just be attempting to hold him still.

All I am suggesting here, before some of you start screaming RACIST!!!!! at me, is that there are too many unanswered questions to be condemning Chauvin for at this stage.

If, when the autopsy report is released, it affirms that Floyd died as the result of a crushed windpipe or asphyxiation due to excessive weight on his neck or back etc, then I will join the choir in calling for his conviction.

But until then, I am going to remain open to all possibilities.

Great question; he didn't die of strangulation would be the answer. ;)
 
Simple answer...... He didnt die from neck compression. Many of us said that about 5 minutes after the video came out.

The video the PHONY media keep replaying does not show the two other cops; one sitting on his legs and the pother his back. It is obvious he had been resisting. But alas, the politicians are so scared of black thugs they kowtow to the PHONY narratives promoted by the PHONY media.
