They’re so desperate for another martyr. They want another Summer of Love. I don’t think that’d happen even if this had been a perfectly unjustified intentional killing, since I think frustrations (whether legit or not) have to boil up over long periods of time before they are spent in rioting on that scale, and once spent they have to be “recharged” so to speak. But it shouldn’t happen regardless, because even if you went only by the optics and asked zero questions (as woke thought leaders would like), this footage isn’t half as powerful as Floyd’s death.

Edit: On the 15 minute thing, it’s pretty wild how stuff like that goes viral and no one checks. I remember with Floyd the amount of time he was allegedly under the knee became a meme, like 8 minutes 46 seconds or whatever it was exactly. That became a hashtag, at least one event had a moment of silence for that length of time, etc. Then come to find out at the trial the real time frame was actually LONGER. So it would have been in wokesters’ interest to check the facts and they still didn’t, millions of people had access to the video and nobody bothered to check. Expect the 15-minute meme to die hard if it even does die
