Baker testifies that the amount of fentanyl in George Floyd's system could have killed him
Difference between you and me is I see that murder and legitimately say, “That could be me. Now every shady thing I did in my life will be put out there ensuring my criminalization despite the fact some cop literally crushed the breath out of me.”
Imagine being slowly killed knowing you’re going to die and there is nothing you can do.
Derek Chauvin murdered Floyd on camera and did not give a fuck.
Good thing that LT didn’t stop before getting to a well lit public area.
Chauvin, the Roman centurian, murdered Barabbas, but Barabbas has now been turned into Jesus.
No, nobody's turned Barabbas into Jesus.
Just some folks, like you, act as if the murder of Barabbas wouldn't merit prosecution. So, we must be saying it was Jesus.
The point is not Barabbas or Jesus. The point is that
somebody was murdered and the accused should be tried for it. And all the dodges in the world, trying to make it about the victim or trying to pretend the victim died of something other than Chauvin's kneeling or trying to convince folks it was just normal police procedure, should not work if they are demonstrated to be false.
It is not about who Floyd was or wasn't.
Testimony has been clear that it was not Floyd's drugs or heart condition that killed him.
And officer after officer has been clear that the kneeling was not standard or appropriate.
And all the rhetoric that people are making the victim into a saint (or into Jesus) is so much chaff tossed in the wind to try to muddy things.
