There have been many other victims of positional asphyxia. There was even one in Minneapolis a few years back where the city paid out 3 million $ in the wrongful death of David Smith.This is the only death associated with it.
Yup, the crowd sure was agitated. They were witnessing a murder.Are you aware that officers are instructed not to administer CPR when surrounded by a crowd, especially an agitated one?
You've moved the goalposts from "NO" other deaths to "very few" deaths after being called on your lies. How many more names of victims do I have to post before you go from "very few" to "many"?I was unaware of Smith, but the point still stands. Very few deaths. Some cases where they were rendered unconscious though.
What threat did the dead victim pose to the murderer that said murderer felt the need to continue murdering his already thoroughly murdered corpse?
Obviously not, since I did say floyd was one. Not interested in arguing semantics with you though.You've moved the goalposts from "NO" deaths to "very few"
He sounds exactly like an expert in the use of unnecessary force. The jury agreed.
Your exact words....Obviously not, since I did say floyd was one. Not interested in arguing semantics with you though.
Their own training material specifically says to use that hold and continue using it while they are resisting, which he was until he stopped breathing. That's the critical moment. You can argue Chauvin should have rolled him over at that point, which is my position on the matter, but it still does not constitute murder.Medaria Arradondo is Minneapolis' police chief. He testified the following:
"Once there was no longer any resistance, and clearly when Mr. Floyd was no longer responsive and even motionless, to continue to apply that level of force to in person, proned out, handcuffed behind their back, that in no way shape or form is anything that is by policy, is not part of our training, and it is certainly not part of our ethics,” Arrandondo said in testimony to prosecutor Steve Schleicher.
Asked if he believed that Chauvin, who is white, kneeling on Floyd’s neck for an extended period of time followed the department’s de-escalation policy, Arradondo, who like Floyd is Black, responded, “I absolutely do not.”
Liar.Their own training material specifically says to use that hold and continue using it while they are resisting, which he was until he stopped breathing. That's the critical moment. You can argue Chauvin should have rolled him over at that point, which is my position on the matter, but it still does not constitute murder.
Again, you insisting on the murder narrative is what's wrong here.
Video has been released. It appears that this may be a justified police shooting. The girl who was shot appeared to be swinging a knife to stab another girl pinned to the hood of a car.As the verdict for the Chauvin murder was coming in, police in Columbus OH shot and killed a 16 year old Black girl. Details are sparse so far.
It may be time for the DOJ starts to investigate every shooting like this as a possible civil rights violation.
