    Not enough. Let’s remember Floyd got a death sentence with no trial or jury but simply because these cops thought of themselves as judge, jury and executioner.

      he didnt die from being choked He died from Fentanyl. The cop that did the knee DEFINITELY she be locked up ! The other two kicked off the force maybe. But not jail time

        Weird that he died from fentanyl at the exact same time was he was being choked to death

          Well no because an overdose of fentanyl induces that

          Guess you never saw the trial or the video of how Saint Fentanyl acted prior to being restrained

            Medical examiner testified saying fentanyl was a contributing factor but not the direct cause of death. George Floyd was murdered and people like you are essentially saying he deserved to die because of his behavior. Cops are not the judge, jury, and executioner, and if they were capable of holding him down and killing him then they were capable of handcuffing and arresting him, but chose not to.

    Entirely political. Police do the same thing all over but because it was a black man on cellphone video the entire black community rioted and burned everything down for a month. Should they have been convicted? Probably. Was it deliberate? Most likely not. Dude was hopped up on fentanyl.

        Oh sorry my bad. What I meant to say is he was high on drugs and had an extensive criminal history. He started the encounter by fighting the police. Don’t fight the police.

          Sadly the left adore the race baiting politics of this stunt

          They need this to feel virtuous. They ignore all the evidence of saint fentanyl and his drug journey

    Imagine someone dying from a drug overdose and you get the blame for it when he was a danger to himself and everyone around him thrashing around
