She gave him way too many chances.
The guards should have nightsticks / batons & used them liberally.
"I'm not red in the face!" as he's beet-red in the face 🤭
I'm guessing he does all this on purpose, to try to get excuses for legal action & a big payday. I hope he gets serious jail time, set an example.
BTW just a reminder that if you can SAY "I can't breathe" then you can, in fact, breathe.
that's not true. positional asphyxiation. If your avioli cannot expand then you will eventually not get enough oxygen and not expell enough carbon dioxide.
fentanyl floyd was claiming he couldn't breathe before he even opened thedoor to the suv as he was shoving drug baggies in his mouth.
If the air can flow enough to work your vocal cords? You are breathing. Maybe not easily, maybe you are in peril? But if you cannot breathe you also cannot talk. It's right there in the First Aid classes.
You are correct. St. Floyd was saying how he can't breathe even while sitting in the drivers seat (!) of his drug dealer's car. He was begging to lay on the ground, fighting being put in the police car. He spat out 1 of the 2 wads of drugs there, the other one got swallowed & it killed him.
Also? A few months earlier he had also OD'd on fentanyl and EMS had to revive him with that stuff they use. He was frothing at the mouth saying "I can't breathe". So much for being "a reformed drug addict: eh?
You are just fucking wrong. Just because you can move air past the vocal chords does not mean you are breathing.
No, you're absolutely in the wrong here.
Positional asphyxia doesn't mean you can't breathe at all, it means you just can't breathe enough. You are in fact breathing if you're talking, there's nothing else that can provide enough airflow down there but air being pulled in and pushed out of your lungs, you can't just magically expand and contract your throat like a frog to create airflow.
Now in positional asphyxiation you can breathe, so you can also talk... Barely. To indicate the possibility of positional asphyxiation in a healthy adult you would either be hearing a whispery wheeze of a voice to indicate partial airway constriction. Or talking in very short shal.. -huff- low... -huff- brea.. -huff- ..ths that can barely manage one syllable at a time, to indicate diaphragm/chest restriction. If you can project "I can't breathe!" in a way the whole room can hear then you are not in danger.
