After George passed out Chauvin could have taken the knee off his neck and put it on his shoulder or something.
With his weight on him He still would not be at risk of being attacked
You're missing the point.
How would Chauvin have known that Floyd passed out and wasn't either putting on an act or out because of the effects of a drug like bath salts?
You realize that would make much easier to restrict breathing or blood flow while being more unstable and harder to hold, right?
It looked obvious from the camera that George had passed out.
Have you ever had any personal experience dealing with drug addicts or criminals?
Do you have any personal experience in martial arts, wrestling, any kind of chokes/holds, etc?
I don't think you have any idea what you're talking about.
Consider it from the angle of the officer.
What part about it is "obvious?"
That he stopped moving? That he relaxed? For an officer that has worked over a decade on the streets, how many times do you think he saw that trick used?
There’s 3 police officers on him and the guy is handcuffed.
I think moving the knee from his neck to his shoulder after he passed out would have been safe.
If they get anybody to say that putting a knee on his neck is recommended for unconscious people then I would change my mind.
But it looks like he didn’t give a fuck
How about instead of pulling horse shit out of your ass you try to work through it yourself?
What is the reason for putting a knee on the side back of the neck?
In cases of excited delirium for overdosing druggies that is exactly the recommended method.
Why do you think that is?
Hint: it's basic physics and body positioning.
You clearly have no experience with junkies or incredibly large men. You really shouldn't talk when you are this obviously naive.
I bet Nobody on the jury has experience restraining incredibly large men
So we've moved from what Chauvin should have done, to "well other people might be as retarded as me."
That's a good goalpost move, very subtle.
It's impossible to argue against it.
If the jury is stupid, and would convict you if you did X, even if there is nothing necessarily wrong with X, then you may want to consider not doing X.
Whether you're right or wrong makes not the slightest difference unless you manage to convince 12 inbred dimwits that you are right.
If you prefer to listen to somebody with experience vs very large men - You should check out what Joe Rogan said about this
Oh another goalpost move! Now its not "other people are retarded as me" but "other person who is known for retarded opinions said thing, so its true!"
Good job ignoring that other response to jump back to this one though.
Also I'm a very large man, I don't need other people's experience to know what would fail to restrain me properly.
There's really not much reason for such hostility. We're all on the same side here. If this is what one of us thinks, then surely there will be many others outside our bubble who do as well, and it would serve us well to have great and not just good responses to them.
I thought you'd surely bring up Milo.
