@Loganvalleybid Then you didn't actually look or know what to look for.
You can see here The Daily Beast, a very leftist and anti-cop site indicates the copy they had has this maneuver in it. https://t.co/LSArj8oTTd
So for you folks who went out protesting the George Floyd thing.....how can you call that a murder then sit here and tell me Karmelo Anthony stabbing isn't a murder?
LA Clippers star Kawhi Leonard and his business adviser have been interviewed by NBA investigators amid the league's probe into allegations the team circumvented the salary cap to compensate Leonard, sources said. https://t.co/rUxWILdaSJ
Chauvin's family made public the training manual he was given by Minneapolis Police showing the technique in the manual. It is a fact that it was part of their training at the time. The police chief at the time lied about it because he knew he would be in deep shit when that gets out. Turns out he didn't end up being the chief long anyway.
It is in the Minneapolis Police training manual at the time this happened. There are copies of it all over the internet.
Really? So the Medical Examiner lied on the stand about the level in his system? Good try.
I'm not justifying his death. He shouldn't have died. My contention is it was not intentional and the drugs in his system were a much bigger factor than what the cops did.
There has never been a time in history where we as a society believed that stabbing someone to death for touching you is morally acceptable.
Just think of all these basketball games or football games where kids push each other. So if someone gets stabbed, welp, I guess it's there fault..huh?
@Loganvalleybid Right, so you agree killing someone for touching you is wrong....right? Both kids should act better but you can't sit here and put blame on the kid who died because well, he touched the other kid.
Otherwise we got all sorts of people should be stabbed out here.
Yeah, dumbass, Floyd weighed 80lbs more than Chauvin. Floyd was much bigger than Chauvin. And Police do that all the time because it is in their training manual and people generally don't die.
Again, you seem to over look that George Floyd had a lethal dose of a drug that is known to stop your breathing in his system.
@Loganvalleybid No, there was literally just a push. That's all there was. There were no punches thrown or anything. He got pushed. That's it. And his response is to kill the kid.
He was not slammed on the ground. George Floyd weighed like 80lbs more than Chauvin. And there is one picture that appears to show his knee on his neck but the video released actually shows his knew was on his back about the top of his shoulder blades. Video never shows his knee on his neck.
Yes, the extra weight of Chauvin probably made things worse but if Flyod wasn't ODing on Fentyl which is a drug that suppresses breathing there';s no way a guy the size of Chauvin suffocates a guy the size of Floyd.
Ideally you don't push someone but at the same time he wasn't likely to be harmed by a push. Do you not see the difference between a push and a stabbing? It's an unwarranted escalation of violence.
If he pushed back, OK, fine. Maybe even you could understand if he threw a punch. But he escalated to deadly force. That's the issue. Kids do this stuff all the time, particularly in sports. A push, a push back....rarely a punch but stabbing is just a way over the top response to a push.
@Loganvalleybid And no, if it was the other way around the vast majority would be saying Austin is in the wrong. There are no circumstances where a single push from an unarmed person warrants being stabbed. Like WTF is he carrying a knife for at a Track meet?
@Loganvalleybid Most reasonable people would say, "OK, my bad. I will leave because this is not my tent and you guys don't know me".
And maybe it's different where you live but most people I know don't think "Well that dude pushed me so i should stab him".
@Loganvalleybid Who is just walking around? This kid was in their tent. He was the one invading on their area where their personal property was and they had no idea who he was. He was asked to leave and didn't leave. That's on him. He could have simply left and they would have left it at that.
