And if he wakes back up and sprints off? He had a requirement to maintain control as long as floyd was in his custody. Are cops doctors or psychics now? Its really not complicated. They called for a ambulance, they did not prevent EMS from providing care. Should have left him in the car but that wouldn't have looked any better, bunch of cops standing around till EMS shows up to drag a dead guy out of the back of the squad car and then it would have been calling negligence and crying they just watched him die. It looks bad no matter what. Morally, you put yourself in a situation, the results of that are on you, not the people that have to show up and deal with you.
You can say it is all a factor all you want. You swallow drugs that makes you unable to survive something you would have if you did not, that is on you, not someone else that got called into the situation you created.
Thats like saying if i get t-boned by someone running a red light I'm a contributing factor. Blame someone that is not in the wrong simply for being there. That is bullshit, everyone knows it is bullshit.
You're pandering in the same was as the rest of MNGOP you made the OP to complain about. Trying to slam your primary opponent because you want to ask the questions but your mind is already made up anyway or you're only willing to say it so far as to not offend a potential voting group. Its the same.
Swallowing drugs is the only factor. Saying anything more than that is forcing others to accept responsibility for actions that are not theirs. No matter what, they did it would always be called a contributing factor, left in the car now that caused a panic attack thats a contributing factor. etc.. In that line of thinking there is no correct action the police could have taken other than never having been there at all.
I knew both of them guys, we were all bouncers at rodeo at the same time. Floyd being allowed to lay down covered was doing him a favor.
Absolutely did. Nothing about the police actions was in anyway a contributing factor other than the fact, they were called, showed up and a criminal reject swallowed his drugs.
No matter what they did floyd was going to be dead before that ambulance got there, leave him in the back of the car, they would get blamed, let him out and let him sit, still blamed. It would have gone to the stress of being arrested is a contributing factor even if they turned him lose.
Its bullshit. Nothing to blame other than floyds own actions. Everything else including your statement is playing racial games for politics or personal gain.
“You can’t talk about immigrants murdering people until you take away the victim’s guns”
This is why progressives need to be disenfranchised as quickly as possible
And when you decide you would like to have a boat you get to deal with paying thousands a year to keep it somewhere else or lose thousands to move. If you want to live managed like that you basically live in a rental. If you dont want to see you're neighbors boat in their driveway you probably should not live next to people.
@beachcondoflnow They just get someone else to do it. You cant stop it without blocking all transactions to those countries and then someone in a country that is not blocked will start a middle man service.
@TimRunsHisMouth Texas is on what border that had 40+ million illegals just walk across. Don't even need a half functioning brain to figure this one out.
@MissyIsMaga@libsoftiktok@Nextdoor Site has been useless since they started running corporate news and ads all over the place. Its no longer the place to keep neighborhood watch organized or find out who down the street fixes lawn mowers on the side. Just turned into pushing communist politics and chasing money.
