George Floyd has been sober for 308 days.
But seriously - Chauvin should have got off his neck after he clearly passed out...
And when he then stops faking it and attacks police, as has happened tens of thousands of times across the US in the last decade?
You're assuming cops should just trust violent black criminal drug addicts to behave as normal people. Absurd.
For all they knew he could have been in the downer phase of angel dust and been headed towards the eat-your-face-off phase.
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?
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
