This cannot stop at the black community. This entire country should be outraged at this. Has the POTUS weighed in? I haven't seen anything yet.
Everyone I know who is familiar with this case, is beyond outraged.
The facts will come out in due time.

I wonder how bad the riots will be when it’s coming after 2 months of quarantine,
 unfortunately I think it’ll be deadly
It is underway, and counterproductive.

It depends what "this" is.

Of course what happened here is absolutely outrageous and indefensible. And it highlights problems that need to be addressed, such as police brutality and them protecting each other no matter what.

But when the narrative becomes about how the big danger facing the average black man in America is being killed by the police for no reason, that's not something I'm willing to get behind. Not to mention the rioting and looting. You're really getting justice for Floyd here by walking out of Target with 5 TVs  ::)

You can do a lot of damage while still in cuffs!


Even if he wasn't in cuffs, even if he was attacking the cop, they are trained specifically not to use the neck precisely because it can kill.

This.

After watching a clip of the mayor at his press conference making it all about race, probably not.

They are?
Yes, we went through this with Eric Garner
Unless the cop's life is in danger, in which case any lethal force is allowed. But even then, the methods of subduing a suspect that are taught don't include suffocation.

Well, if they are trained as such and still do it, the entire training (or more accurately - screening) is questionable.

In my line of business, there's ethics training and oversight. But the bottom line is that there are certain things that are either part of you, or they aren't.

Robust and extensive screening of personality and character is probably the most important thing missing. It seems like jurors are disqualified faster than people are rejected from the ranks of law enforcement in this country.

The security video there shows nothing that I could imagine leading to the officer's violence.

Have been staying out of the news so didn't see this till now. CAN'T SLEEP! This guy needs to be held responsible. It may be time for a policy similar to when a male cop is not allowed to frisk a female suspect. It may sound crazy but for the 1 in every 99 cops that are bad we can't take the chance. White people suffer from bad cops also but stories like this where a man was murdered is (no words).
Suggested policy: A white cop can not put his hand on a black man if he is complying with orders. If he is not, then they can try to hold him down safely. Once in cuffs they can't touch him until a black officer is present. This sounds crazy and it is probably not the answer but something has to be done. Proper training is not enough as we have seen time and time again!

+1, and BLM is just a terrorist organization. Its really terrible that this happened, but to say that in general the average black person has less privilege then a white person is just crazy. I work with a few black guys and they all same the same thing. These guys that keep getting into trouble just want to complain. If they wanted to they can go to college and get a job. Society is not stopping them and putting them at a disadvantage
