Same here, it really highlights that judgement should wait until you have all the facts in any given situation.

There are a lot of bad cops out there so that doesn't help but the best thing to do when an arrest is imminent is to shut up and cooperate. Sure, if you are innocent it sucks but at least you're alive to fight any charges as opposed to getting shot/killed while resisting because a greenhorn/asshole cop got trigger happy.

Not using counterfeit currency/fentanyl/heroin/meth/coke also minimizes the possibility of coming into contact with the police.

The blubbering combined with repeated refusal to just put his hands on the damn wheel when asked and then continuing to blubber about "don't shoot me" long after the officer put his gun away really sets the stage for why things went wrong if the 'shines continued like that after Chauvin showed up...

The only thing that would have changed the outcome was if someone stuck him with Narcan, but the cops had already called the EMTs, so there was literally nothing they could have done with the tools they had to stop him from ending up dead. Even with the maximum spin editing of the footage, it's still readily apparent.

All I can think watching the footage is, is this it? Is this what was worth tearing the country apart over? The police clearly were doing their job and had the right to be as upfront and by the books with the criminal as they had done. No suspect is owed a therapy session with the cops arriving the arrest him.
What really irritates me is Floyd's drugged up panic which, even in his lucid state, he uses to try and wriggle out of custody. Not even somebody suffering a mental breakdown would be so unco-operative with law enforcement unless they wanted to.

The poetry of Floyd being caught in his own car, and then acting claustrophobic when shunted into a 3-seat back of another vehicle within 5 minutes is not lost on me. I'm really glad that immediate contrast was part of the chain of events. Means 1) I don't have to hold anybody's hand to point it out, and 2) single-handedly undermines the entire prosecution's side.
I've spent 2 months at least entertaining the notion that the cops involved were horrible people, and now I can see they figured they were dealing with yet another drugged up petty criminal, and wanting the case sorted in as quick as procedurally possible since they're X hours still to go on their shift.

Again, THIS is the waste of space America has been culturally self-immolating over? This is the man worth turning Minneapolis into another Detroit? Fuck that, rub this video in every BLM sycophant's face until they publicly complain about cyber harassment.
The race baiters were so desperately keen for an anecdote to bludgeon the public with, to validate their own racial animosity. Good peoples' lives have been ruined over this. Good people have died over this. People not yet grown will be bullshitted into thinking Floyd is yet another fake martyr in a fight against oppression that doesn't exist. Keep an eye out. I wonder when the penny will finally drop on Woke Twitter that their cause is a doomed one

That is INSANE! Such a severe high risk situation. Car full of people, none of them allowing you to see their hands. If that was me, I would have left and went back to my car and ordered each one out one by one by bullhorn up against a nearby wall. No way would I stand next to a car like that and try to coerce everyone out.

This footage shows the reason David Dorn was shot to death on the street. Think about that. A TV and a junkie - that's about how much black lives are apparently worth.

Defund the Junkies.

That man was not long for this world, cops or not. Won't say they did him a mercy, but he did none for himself.

Would have taken an ER team to bring him back.

watched the whole thing. The cop is acting like a normal cop, Floyd is squirrelly , crying, sobbing, the people with him are saying "He's got mental problems, boy ain't right" all Floyd's folks are backing far as they can from anything to do with him as they know he's done fucked up. Watch toward the end, Floyd is stating "I can't breathe!" at the first time he's attempted to be put into the cop car, then he keeps going on and on with he's claustrophobic, cuffs too tight, he'll get on the ground, and then in the last minute over and over as he is STILL IN THE FUCKING COP CAR screeching "I CANT BREATHE!" . The narrative that it was the cops who put his knee on his neck causing his lack of breathing is shot completely as Floyd was Up right, mobile, and still complaining about breathing problems and crying about everything else that was wrong with his life for nearly 3 minutes before being put onto the ground.

No court in any state will convict the cop and , sadly, said cops will get MILLIONS from payouts for this travesty of justice.

Normally I'd be horrified by the thought of kids running around with guns and knives attacking people in the middle of the night. But these are their monsters. They can deal with them.

That nonce who is running these kids should be locked in the deepest hole they can find.

For completion's sake, the bodycam already posted by @HARDCORE SYNDROME as a single video:

(video too big to embed directly here, it needs to be downgraded, which atm I cannot do)

Floyd trying to get rid of at least some of the drug bags he was fiddling with in the car.
The footage comes from a security camera, some stills of it, in particular a closeup of Floyd seemingly wincing and crying in pain, have been circulating almost since the beginning to further the narrative (see after the video down below).

That was it?

That's what we've been getting screamed at over for two whole fucking months?

Our monuments are being toppled, our cities are burning, and our identities are being stripped from us for this?

THAT went into a gold casket?

I can't even manage to feel anger for him, I just feel sad for him and the cops who didn't know what the fuck was going on - may have even hassled him a little, sure - but ultimately just wanted to get him to cooperate. You'd think they'd smashed him into the pavement and sat on him until he choked the way people are acting, but...fuck, man.

It's like I keep coming back to this realization; if it wasn't him, it would've been somebody - anybody - else. I know that now; and I just want everything to stop.

If Officer Chauvin had been a black dude and Floyd was still Floyd or if you flipped the races and it was a black cop with the knee on the neck of a drugged up white man, this story would've went nowhere and wouldn't have even been a blip on the national news. Seeing the parts of the bodycam footage that have been released just seems to show the cops struggling with a black dude that's been resisting arrest and could even be faking it, the whole thing is simply ridiculous, like at most you could say Chauvin was a bit excessive with his knee on the back of Floyd but this wasn't some cold blooded execution like it was initially portrayed as by the talking heads.
