No matter what happens, there'll be rioting. But it'll probably fizzle out like last time and as long as you aren't balls deep in a Dem-run city it won't affect you much, if at all.

I live in a safe area, so I'll just look at the chimpout streams with a cup of tea in hand, be mildly amused for an hour, then fuck off to play STALKER.

Happenings keep escalating and deescalating so rapidly that I doubt even the results of this trial will last much more than a month, max. It's kind of scary actually, it's like real life events are mirroring social media in how frequently they occur and disappear as people's attention spans shorten.

You'll pass out with a needle in your arm sure, but to actually die from an opiate you need to essentially suffocate which takes a while. And during those couple of hours you can be brought back with nal. That's why there's people who've been narcan'd ten times... It's not something that's quick onset. Even when completely opiate naïve people kill themselves with fent they don't suffocate die that fast. Either way I think trying to claim that he had a sudden onset fent OD while a cop just so happened to put him in a blood choke is braindead :/ the meth use heart attack is more plausible tbh.

There was no "blood choke", the "MMA fighter" called the headlock the cop used to pull Floyd from the cruiser a "blood choke". That headlock ended around 10 minutes before death.

The "MMA fighter" clearly stated in AAVE that Chauvin used his white supremacy magic to put Floyd in a blood choke by putting his knee on the shoulder blade. Like they say in Harlem, "dey got de knee on ya 'blade, dey make ya blood fayde". I'm surprised that such a hold isn't banned by law.

An "MMA Fighter"? NavySealCopypasta.doc

Always be skeptical of anyone who claims "badass" cred that can't be easily verified. Even then, they might be embellishing (see also: Chris Kyle).

They put him on the stand and let him testify in a way normally reserved for expert witnesses. I hope they qualified him as an EW before he took the stand.

He had used more than one substance though, which complicates the situation more.

If you want an example of this, depraved mind would be like those two teenage black girls who, without regard for human life, pretty much killed that Pakistani guy.

The b) part is basically drugs

What has been alleged so far is that the cop killed the dindu by asphyxiation.
Now how do you get to 'guilty' when you have the reasonable doubt created by high levels of drugs in the dindu's system, that can cause asphyxiation?

Toxicology report for Fentanyl Floyd if anybody is interested

So maybe I’m a retard (most likely true). But when I did my calculations on the Fentanyl this wouldn’t be anywhere near a lethal dose.

2-3 mg is the lethal dose for Fentanyl, but at 223 lbs (during autopsy) he would’ve had 0.08mg of Fentanyl in his his system.

I’m sure theres something I’m missing (either in calculations or in how these drugs interact with each other). But in case I’m not wrong, wouldn’t it be a bad idea for the defense to emphasize the Fentanyl if its not anywhere near the lethal dose?

Assuming there's no evidence of an allergy or sensitivity, yes.
But it should be noted that some people are extrasensitive, and some are undersensitive, to certain medicines or chemicals or ingredients, etc.

You're misreading something somewhere. The toxicology report lists blood concentrations in nanograms per millilitre of blood. A lethal dose of fentanyl can be as low as 3ng/mL depending on other factors. 12ng/mL is rather high.
