I am agreeing with you and that may not be popular. I will add something, the policy in most metro-areas is the cops carry narcon for fentanyl distress and they are trained to recognize it. If the MPD did not provide the narcon and training the cops may not have understood what was going on. Especially the rookie cop.

Stalin was trying to find a way to discredit the United States. He chose the Leopold and Lobe murder case and created a movement in the US to smear the country as racist for convicting these men who were obviously guilty. The movement did the standard racist things to smear America. Apparently, John Steinbeck’s wife attended a candlelight vigil held for the murderers and said to the communist agitator, a woman, that she hoped the governor would commute their sentence. The woman snapped at her, “Don’t be ridiculous. They’re no good to us alive.” When she related this to her husband she told him that they were being used as tools. He had promised to write something sympathetic for the cause. She told him that if he didn’t she would fear for their lives.

What we see going on now is the same thing, but updated for the modern world.

... or let somebody hold him down by means of a knee to the neck for 9 minutes, including several minutes after he went quiet.

“””Well first off they could call an ambulance.””””

The ambulance was on the way.

Saint Floyd died of a fentanyl overdose. The meth he took probably didn’t help either.

Plus he had the KungFlu.

Three strikes and you’re out.

It is not hugely exculpatory that three cops squashed a man in respiratory distress.

Certainly it is not reassuring.

“”””NARCAN”””””””””

IF they knew he had just taken a gob of heroin it might work.

But they didn’t so they didn’t.

There seems to be a large number of trolls and false-flag posters coming out of the woodwork.

Narcan.

Narcan almost instantly shuts down opiate effects in the brain.

If given to someone who is not overdosing on opiates it does nothing....no side-effects.

Is available as a simple nasal spray..the afflicted need not be breathing...but has to have a pulse so the Narcan can be forced into the brain.

Very fast acting.....sorta like the Oxytocin nasal spray that starts letdown response in new Moms. FAST!

Takes one from opiate disaster to sober-as-the-pope in a flash....must be a very rude awakening.

----------------------------------------------------------

What is the most important information I should know about NARCAN® Nasal Spray? NARCAN® Nasal Spray is used to temporarily reverse the effects of opioid medicines. The medicine in NARCAN® Nasal Spray has no effect in people who are not taking opioid medicines.

Use NARCAN® Nasal Spray right away if you or your caregiver think signs or symptoms of an opioid emergency are present, even if you are not sure, because an opioid emergency can cause severe injury or death.

Family members, caregivers, or other people who may have to use NARCAN® Nasal Spray in an opioid emergency should know where NARCAN® Nasal Spray is stored and how to give NARCAN® before an opioid emergency happens.

Get emergency medical help right away after giving the first dose of NARCAN® Nasal Spray. Rescue breathing or CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) may be given while waiting for emergency medical help.

The signs and symptoms of an opioid emergency can return after NARCAN® Nasal Spray is given. If this happens, give another dose after 2 to 3 minutes using a new NARCAN® Nasal Spray and watch the person closely until emergency help is received.

"Appear to care."

Why?

Half the country wants to put cops out of a job, because they are racisss. This is not something new, springing out of the ground fully grown, like Cadmus' dragon's teeth, that happened the last few weeks.

Ask ANY LEO.

Face down with knee on neck is not the most calming position or recommended treatment for someone in distress from drug OD.

Let’s cut through the crap of this incident, shall we? Even if Ofc Chauvin had gotten off Floyd George’s neck the first time that he say he couldn’t breath, and then died later from the drug overdose, the leftist mob would behave NOT A WIT DIFFERENT THAN THEY DO NOW.

This man’s family and friends didn’t want to believe he killed himself despite the evidence.
