    Odd there are some who think kneeling on the neck of a handcuffed suspect laying face down for 8+ minutes is an approved technique.
    There is a reason Lane twice asked Chauvin if they should turn Floyd on his side. And I'm quite confident kneeling on the neck for 8+ minutes is not an approved technique.

    "no police department in any city in any state has approved the technique of kneeling on a handcuffed and face down suspects neck for over 7 minutes, 3 of which while he was unconscious. Chauvins supervisor and department trainer has told you this is not an approved technique."
    It is in their training manual.
    What is the allowed duration?

    You're moving the goal posts. Every school that teaches that technique has no issues with using it as a restraint. There are no time limits for how long to hold it.

    You should consider some form of actual factual discussion of fact rather than relying on denial as a comeback for everything that doesn't fit your narrative.
    Anyone can deny, doing so constantly pretty well insures nobody will believe anything you claim or give any consideration to your opinion. .

    The black man was passing fake bills at a store and the shop owner called the cops on him. Cops showed up and attempted to arrest him and he fought the cops violently for a good while before he ended up with a knee on his neck. There's plenty of footage of Floyd resisting and violently fighting the cops. You won't see it though because it doesn't fit the narrative.

    Cool. Can we also stop counting people in Hospice as Covid deaths just because they had covid when they died?

    Isn't that what Chauvin thought ?

    ""This black man is guilty, I am the judge and jury and will "hang" him."


    I was responding to someone who accused others for acting as judge and jury on Chauvin....and HE (Chauvin) acted as judge , jury and executioner on Floyd.

    THAT was my point...the cops should NOT be judge jury and executioner.

    The cops first approached Floyd , on a counterfeit bill allegation, WITH GUNS drawn...that's excessive for a counterfeit bill allegation....


    But you won't see that, you WILL SEE (your words) "The black man was passing fake bills"""...


    Here is another of your errors : ""You won't see it though because it doesn't fit the narrative""


    BUT I did see it...along with millions of others watching the trial....see, you're wrong again...

    I also saw Floyd subdued.....and then murdered....

    putting a murderer in prison is not a miscarriage of justice

    I regularly watch the Chauvin trial and although you may believe otherwise, there is nothing political about it.

    The facts presented are clearly consistent with the use of excessive force against Floyd.

    The videos show him in great shape before the events, he even resists his arrest. After he was wrestled to the ground, witnesses repeatedly challenged Chauvin because Floyd couldn't breathe.

    Chauvin did nothing to relieve the pressure on his knee, in fact he did the opposite by repositioning himself three times.

    All the witnesses at the scene say the same thing, Chauvin's superiors disapprove of his actions and the paramedics testify that Floyd was already dead when they arrived.

    If you think Chauvin is going to make it, you're living in a parallel world.

    While you may think otherwise, a democratic society must severely punish a law enforcement officer who abuses his power in his position.

    And whether the victim is black, white or yellow is irrelevant.

    One is innocent until proven guilty. What you suggest is mob justice.

    I have no idea what you mean. The death certificate. That's what I'm talking about. Not the law.

    I know, which makes your reply quite puzzling.

    Apparently, many here deny the official manner of death, which is homicide, which is what I've been saying since it was made public.

    I used to have an Uncle who was a pretty good middleweight boxer back in the 40s and early 50s. He was a great guy and I used to watch big fights together. He would declare the winner before the fight. When his guy won, he would say, see I told you. When his guy lost he would either say that he took a dive or that the judges rigged it. Either way, in his mind he was always right.

    You seem to be saying that yes, Chauvin is innocent but if he’s convicted, it’s because the jury really thought he was innocent and were afraid of the public outrage. No chance at all that the jury examined all the evidence and righteously convicted him. It’s rigged I tell ya....Lol...Are you by any chance a Trump supporter?

    That is what the prosecution attempts to prove. That it was actually murder. So far it has failed.
