Amen,this is what I said last night to my kids.Philly was a hot mess and both my son’s were working.Listening to the police scanner and it is still a mess.They tried to burn down City Hall last night.Tonight will be worse.
I thought Floyd, besides being a career criminal, drug user, and counterfeiter, was claustrophobic! That’s why all the commotion in the police car and why they dragged him out.
If a suspect “freaks out” and CLAIMS to be “claustrophobic”, you don’t just believe them! It could be (likely is) just a ploy to escape.
If you refuse to be “secure” in the patrol car, then we will make you secure on the ground. You are not escaping. We are not falling for it. Can’t breathe? How come you keep TALKING! Again not falling for it.
THEN, you have the nerve to DIE due to your poor health and drug use and try to blame me for it!
Maybe you shouldn’t have tried spending that fake twenty, TWICE!
/s (sort of)
This video is not of the police removing Floyd from his vehicle.
Events leading up to the video shown here.
Floyd is removed from his vehicle and handcuffed. He is then placed on the sidewalk. Officer gets info ect then picks him up and walks him across the street.
Up until now the next thing we knew was the viral video.
Now we have video between being walked across the street and the viral video. What is still somewhat unclear is whether he was dragged out of the car or somehow overcame multiple officers, while in handcuffs, to get himself on the ground.
What this video clearly shows is Floyd was in the police car before the viral video, significant video which we did not have before.
Maybe, maybe not. “Although the two overlapped working security on popular music nights within the last year, Santamaria can not say for certain they knew each other because there were often a couple dozen security guards, including off-duty officers”
Thanks. “Although the two overlapped working security on popular music nights within the last year, Santamaria can not say for certain they knew each other because there were often a couple dozen security guards, including off-duty officers”
You can’t excuse the cop putting his foot on the prisoner’s neck!
It wasn’t enough to have a plethora of looney Covid-19 posts. Now this.
You can’t see a thing going on in the car.
I have watched enough Live PD to guess the kind of thing that happens in police custody.
I have seen handcuffed suspects who refuse to get into the back of cars be “manhandled” that way. The cops are trying to put the suspect in the car, move his legs in and belt him in place. Sometimes it takes several cops working both doors.
I have also seen suspects removed from the back seat of cars when they try to kick out windows or ortherwise hurt the police vehicle. The police will pull them out and shackle their legs and connect the feet shackles to the hand cuffs with a length of chain to prevent their kicking.
I have seen people pulled out of back seats who were spitting on officers, so they could put a head net over the suspect so he can’t spit.
I have seen people in the back seat of squad cars who were a danger to themselves, and were smashing their head against the windows or the cages. I have seen them pulled out of cars and dealt with.
I have NEVER seen a bunch of cops just “working over” a suspect in the back seat of a squad car.
The odds are very good that Floyd was being uncooperative, damaging the car, or being a danger to himself, causing the cops to pull him out of the car.
Admittedly, when that happens, the cops are usually angry and give the suspect rough treatment. I think that is what happened in this case. I think Floyd was being uncooperative and the cops pulled him out and gave him the rough treatment. Unfortunately, the idiot kneelinlg on his neck went WAY OVERBOARD, and accidentally killed him, for which he deserves to be convicted of murder 3 or manslaughter.
Thanks- I’ll spend some time looking at it more closely this evening. I’m on my way to a small barbecue at friend’s!! (First social moment in awhile)
Nice, gotta love a good bbq! Hope you have a great time.
So much speculation...drugs....counterfeit 20, resisting arrest by fighting the police off, etc. No facts...speculation.
What I SAW on the video is a man unconscious/dead with police kneeling on him. One on his neck. They didn’t stop and get off of him even after he collapsed. NOBODY tried to revive him, not even the EMT’s.
Even if his heart gave out, they contributed to his death and did not assist him.
We don’t execute serial killers anymore..... but this man deserved to die? This is how we want our police to operate?
Is this is conservative thinking? Police always right.
Why can’t I watch the vid on your site?
Yes a bit further for than before when he tried to tell us that hundreds or (maybe it was thousands) of kid are killed in trampoline accidents every year.
Looked it up and 6 deaths in 7 years.
This guy is BS.
Do you ever reply or add to comments on these blog posts you make?
Since the financial panic was the response to the pandemic, it’s part and parcel of the whole.
The record says rarely.
Observing this protest and personally experiencing unjustified arbitrary restrictions on their own liberty by arrogant government officials, a great many people in the most oppressed cities enthusiastically join in this protest.
Under cover of this legitimate protest, and taking full advantage (and even encouraging) the intensity of its force, Antifa, a left-wing group, is leading the violence at anti-police brutality protests.
"The violence and vandalism is being led by antifa and other radical left-wing groups who are terrorizing the innocent, destroying jobs, hurting businesses and burning down buildings," Trump said during remarks at the Kennedy Space Center in Florida on Saturday.
"The United States of America will be designating ANTIFA as a Terrorist Organization," Trump said in a tweet.
EyesOfTX noted in an earlier thread: “What’s equally troubling is that one other person was filming the whole event; at least two other officers were helping Chauvin; and another officer was standing nearby. None intervened to simply place the man in the back of the police car.”
That raises a serious question: Was the person filming the video actually an Antifa agent, with the specific purpose of creating this riot?
And were the policemen possibly complicit with Antifa in this as well?
