The George Floyd Case Discussion Thread

[Sacred Jellybean]

I saw a video in which he didn't resist. I can try to find it again if need be. And even so, is "resisting" justification for murdering a man? If a knee-on-the-neck choke-hold is by the book, does that make that kind of brutality ethical? Because it's sanctioned by the state? The guy pleaded for his life while three officers held him down, slowly choking him to death, while one watched on and did nothing. I can't imagine what the guy must have done to warrant that kind of egregious restraint. It seems nothing short of cowardly.
