George Floyd

[Joe pike]

The trial starts today.

Any views on whether the police officer will be found guilty or not?

Expected to last 4 weeks.

Could get nasty.

[Poodler]

Appease both sides. Found guilty but avoid jail in some bizarre twist 

 

hopefully some serious civil disruption. Although there’s no need for it in this country 

[Joe pike]

Minneapolis  have already admitted guilt by awarding them 27 million compensation .

 

[BrianFaePerth]

No hope of a fair and just trial. Only one verdict will appease.

[BrianFaePerth]

The fuckin irony

I should think his family are dancing in the street toasting the cop who killed him.

"Fuck we're rich we got 27 million for the robbing cunt...Yahoo."

More likely toasting the drugs that killed him - with a shitload of gear

Correct. 

If the recent dropping of charges against Kenneth Walker are anything to go by, Derek Chauvin may as well start thinking about what he may have as his last meal.

Why did they get compensation, considering nothing has been proven or decided yet apart from the fact Floyd had an unhealthy amount of Fentanyl and Methamphetamine in his system that may have been the primary and only cause of his death?

Nothing like milking it for what it is worth.

Is she now a man? The last time she fake bubbled on TV I am sure she was a female.

??. They never miss an opportunity either, tim Gerry and his missus Kate, to hog the limelight as a consequence of their sheer negligence.

No reason to be certain he'll be convicted. 

Often cops walk from this kind of incident based on local laws, prejudice, or politics. 

I'd like to see the coppers involved dropped off on Kelt Island, though...

A lot of brothers will be hoping the copper gets off,  the Air Jordans they looted last year will be looking a bit shabby and need replaced.

I am starting to wonder though if George Floyd is actually dead.

Not saying he was a criminal as I never knew the dude, just going on his skin colour. 

He was involved in the armed robbery of a pregnant woman.

You're not the only one, MAD, plenty of threads and youtube videos that go down the rabbit hole.

For which he served 5 years in prison. 

Crime committed, sentence served. 

You can't later murder someone and say, "Aye, but he committed armed robbery" as a justification.

He was a cunt though,  good riddance.  Would anyone shed a tear for a white guy who'd committed such a crime previously?  Unlikely.  And was it murder?  Manslaughter I would say.

Oh well, he deserved to be killed then. Summarily, by the cop rather than due process.

Yep. A wrong un. Zero fucks given.

Yip, the whole thing just doesn't add up.

1. If the copper was applying that much pressure to his neck, Floyd would have died long before the 9th minute of his apprehension.

2. Regardless of it being a copper doing the restraining of a fellow human being, if you felt they were being OTT with the apprehension you would jump into help, not stand back and video the incident of your phone. It would have been very fairly easy to do so as the copper was in an already unnatural and unbalanced position when trying to shackle Floyd.

3. Where were the ambulances that the noble citizens of Minneapolis called to come to the aid of good-living Floyd? 

I remember the once my honey monster pal strangled me with my Aberdeen scarf after I got dropped off at my local after a game we had beat Dundee United 3-1. Aberdeen had fucked his coupon that day?. 

After 30 seconds or so, I was in a lot of trouble regardless of me telling him to wise the fuck up. Thankfully he stopped soon after but took me a few minutes to come to again. My point being if he continue on further, I would have been broon breid after a minute or so, nae 9 minutes.

I'm not a big fan of vigilante 'justice', so my feelings regards murdering Floyd or murdering some white suburban who never committed a crime in his life are 100% identical. 

Vigilantism tends to end with people swinging from trees, regardless of guilt.

1. There's no set time for how long it takes to choke someone to death. Just choking someone unconscious should take less than 20 seconds, but to kill them from oxygen starvation,  it could be less than a minute or more than 10

2. You jump in and attack a copper in the United States and you very well might end up being shot. Everyone's a hero until they're in a position to be a hero. 

3. Not sure how that matters.

He was a big strong boy

would’ve been good in the old mandingo fechtin in years gone by

I hope the cop has had a torrid time, if he’s been remanded 

[Clydeside_Sheep]

What happened to Floyd was was wrong and requires to justice to be served, but the movement it has created is pure self-indulgence and mis-direction.

That black lives matter is a message to be chiefly received by black people themselves, their own conduct (murders, abortions) and not police brutality are the main reasons why their lives are cheap.

Its the same anywhere there is a significant black population, be it an african nation or major US city, always complete lawlessness and wholesale murder.

Its actually a fucking cheek we need to listen to their whining and all this kneeling at the football etc.
