They were investigating a claim he had a counterfeit $20 bill.Just to clarify my thread. Do ALL police officers in the USA see a black and immediately stop and throw the black to the ground with no cause?
The below photo shows 3 officers holding Floyd down. Why?
Did these 3 grown men approach Floyd and immediately throw him to the ground and pinned him to Floyd's death?
OR did Floyd at 6'6" over 200 lbs former tight end football player resist arrest?
What happened before that I'd like to understand because according to this article...

Racial gap in U.S. arrest rates: 'Staggering disparity'
Nearly 1,600 places had arrest rates more lopsided than Ferguson, Mo.www.usatoday.com
At least 70 departments scattered from Connecticut to California arrested black people at a rate 10 times higher than people who are not black, USA TODAY found.
"Something needs to be done about that," said Ezekiel Edwards, the head of the ACLU's Criminal Law Reform Project, which has raised concerns about such disparate arrest rates. "In 2014, we shouldn't continue to see this kind of staggering disparity wherever we look."
Is it possible as this black economist points out that this is the problem?
In New York City, in 1925, 85 percent of black households were two-parent households.
A study of 1880 family structure in Philadelphia shows that three-quarters [75%] of black families were two-parent households."
By Walter E. Williams is a professor of economics at George Mason University. (Oh by the way in the famous words of Obama..."And did I mention he's black?")
Black female head of households number is 68 percent
If we put ourselves into the shoes of racists who seek to sabotage black upward mobility, we couldn’t develop a more effective agenda than that followed by civil rights organizations,www.desototimes.com
Today more than one-third (33%) of all Black children in the United States under the age of 18 live with unmarried mothers—
compared to 6.5 percent of White children.
The figures reflect a general trend:
During the 1960-2016 period, the percentage of children living with only their mother nearly tripled from 8 to 23 percent and the percentage of children living with only their father increased from 1 to 4 percent.
Isn't the real problem with blacks being confronted at least 10 times higher because those blacks didn't have an authority figure in their family...just their Mom?
Please watch the following tape and THEN tell me how many riots would have been stopped?
How many black men not arrested. Definitely fewer blacks killed by cops...the authority figures!

The question isn't HOW three officers pinned him down, it's WHY three officers pinned him down using deadly force over a minor offense or perhaps just an honest mistake.
The offense here wasn't armed robbery, it was that he had tried to pay for something with what looked like a fake $20.00
I posted a video where he reads the report of the whole event,,,I've been wondering the same thing. One video shows Floyd sitting on the sidewalk. The next video shows him pinned by 3 cops by the car. What happened between the two videos? It's still look bad for the police, but regardless, we need to know the whole story.
Want to end police brutality against Black people? To paraphrase Angela Davis, it’s not enough to *not* be racist — you need to be antiracist. Oftentimes, the desire to be a “perfect” ally stops people from speaking up and taking action. Don’t let concerns like this prevent you from showing up. Now more than ever is the time to take action to support Black, Indigenous and other people of color ― even if you’ve been slow to get involved in the past.
Yeah...maybe.If i lived in any of the areas being destroyed I would move the fuck out because if they are found not guilty it will be 10X worse.He was resisting...this will all come out in court...along with department procedure for safely detaining suspects. Add to that the guy's preexisting conditions which the officers were not privy to...most of these guys are gonna walk.
There are two sides to every story. Wait till the body cam footage is release.If someone is not physically capable of enduring prolonged torture and dies it does not excuse the torturer. Nor does any kind of resistance excuse torturing someone to death. Does not matter who you are once the cuffs are on you are in police custody. While in custody the police are 100% responsible for your safety. No, they tortured a man to death on TV, not going to walk on that.He was resisting...this will all come out in court...along with department procedure for safely detaining suspects. Add to that the guy's preexisting conditions which the officers were not privy to...most of these guys are gonna walk.
We will see what toxicology reports state. If there were levels of certain chemicals in his system it could be argued that the man had to be restrained for his own safety.He was resisting...this will all come out in court...along with department procedure for safely detaining suspects. Add to that the guy's preexisting conditions which the officers were not privy to...most of these guys are gonna walk.
Cuffs are on fights over PERIOD the end. There is zero reason to restrain a man that way when they are already caught and ready to stuffed In a car.

Nope, there is no way anyone can pretend this was warranted or part of any established police procedure. Since they are fired there will be no union lawyers coming to their defense.

I can come on here and break people's balls about the blacks or what ever. The cold hard truth is, WE have permitted our government far too much power under the guise of protection.
When a society does that, things like this happen.

No, this is completely wrong and foolish. Black parents do regularly teach their children never to resist arrest!!! It doesn't matter when you have bad cops like that idiot who had like 12 prior incidents just like this. It was only a matter of time before he killed someone!!!
