You wouldn't expect him to say anything else mate, like I pointed out earlier to Heff regards fairness, he was fired immediately by his superiors.

Yeah you're right of course.


So - a new witness statement today from medical experts

'Forensic pathologist Dr Lindsey Thomas said "the activities of the law enforcement officers resulted in Mr Floyd's death" from lack of oxygen.'

if it looks like a duck, and it quacks like a duck, and it walks like a duck, chances are....

Still only heard one side of the argument.

As with all court cases you start with prosecution and by the end of their case it is bang to rights but once the defence starts it all changes.

They will produce experts to counter this expert witness and so it goes on and on.

He's odds on for a guilty verdict but will have leave to appeal. Life will roll on a new incident or atrocity will surface and in 5 years he will quietly be released or cleared and no one will care as life resumes some normality after CV and peoples priorities and focus change.

What other side of the argument? There isnt one. Dude died because of lethal compression to the neck. Well after being subdued.

Murder, manslaughter or misadventure guilty of something but which?

Have You already made up your mind about the cause but what about drugs? Prosecution have started their case with experts the defence will now put their side with experts throwing doubt on the previous experts!

The police officer who what appears to have a knee on the neck, is in my opinion, not guilty.

I'm of the firm belief that the drugs he was on, plus his heart problem lead to his death. It was an overdose of the combination of drugs he was on + bad ticker. Even before the cop had his knee on the bloke, Floyd was complaining in and out of the cop car that he couldn't breathe, he had Covid at the time I believe.

I think because of the volatile situation in the US right now, the cop will be found guilty irrespective of the evidence, I can't see any other outcome unfortunately.

Steven Crowder had one of his crew members kneel on his neck for the time Floyd was knelt on plus a few more seconds broadcast live. Crowder didn't die after recreating what happened with the cop and Floyd.

I think what happened is just a very bad set of circumstances; everyone involved was at the wrong place at the right time.

Even if a knee ‘appeared' to be on his neck but was actually on his back it's still completely possible that in the struggle, and with the weight of a grown man bearing down on him, each deflation of his lungs will have suffocated him slowly like a constrictor kills it's prey.
I fail to understand how people can literally watch a video of the life draining from a person being strangled and dismiss it as wrong place wrong time.
I suppose if people can sit through videos by this piece of **** and take it seriously anything is possible.
Who do we think posed the biggest danger to the US. A crack head with a fake note or this crowder ***** and his promotion of hate and division?

I see somebody else has been shot, thought they had pulled a taser, instead a gun

Must have a similar type of feel or handle???

Riots ahoy!

What's your belief that the drugs/heart problem lead to his death based on? The doctor that tried to save him, and the chief medical examiner that performed the autopsy both claim asphyxia/suffocation is what did it and that the heat disease/drugs were not direct causes. That's tricky to argue with imo.
I read that the cop kept his knee on the guys neck for a further 2 mins 44 secs after they found he had no pulse. I fail to see how anyone could suggest he's not guilty on that basis.

Positional Asphyxia.

You don't leave a suspect in a prone face down position once secured, they are rolled on their side to allow free flow of air to lungs. The position he was in on his side should have negated that problem, but pushed up against the car wheel with his chest compressed against the wheel i would say is the same as leaving him face down.

Heart disease and drugs he was a ticking time bomb and the stress brought on of another arrest didn't help the situation!

Defence has started with an expert the position he was in was not use of lethal force!

If true, how comes Crowder didn't die?

He wasn't strangled.

Crowder isn't the biggest threat in the US, the mainstream media who have been fanning the flames of muh racism are the biggest threat. Like their total misrepresentation of the known facts of this case, totally ignore the drugs etc, previous convictions for pushing a gun into pregnant womens belly, porn star, instead they painted him as a pillar of the community and upstanding member of society when the truth of it is he was anything but that.

The subsequent riots that ensued and the media coverage was laughable at best and sinister at worse, like clearly burning down buildings in the background of live broadcasts from the likes of CNN caused by rioters and looters, with talking heads saying stuff like "mostly peaceful protests".
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
