100% I don't think I saw anyone here trying to justify it. Its really terrible that this happened and the cops involved need to be held accountable. But to say its a part of a bigger picture that every black person faces the risk of being shot every time they walk outside is absurd.

Would you feel it to be unreasonable when a black feels that he is at risk of being killed over any minor interaction with police?

Can we differentiate between where the person resists arrest and  when the person complies?

Definitely not with their feelings about it.

What are you calling "resisting" anyhow?

But in any case just looking at the videos online of the riots and looting, how can anyone feel bad for them?

We hissed at that type of reaction when jersey city happened and should be the furthest ones away from saying similar things in a case like this one.

umm you might not want to write this.
Lets use @yaakov35 logic. So when someone seen large groups of Jews gathering in defiance of SD orders that is reason not to feel bad for "them"?

Why is it that every time there are riots the Targets and foot lockers get looted.  Obviously they are justifying robbing the stores that have the stuff they really want yet can't afford.  Nothing to do with justice here.  Simple looting for the sake of stealing.

I hope justice is served in this case.  But all looters should be locked up.

Exactly and we shouldn't confuse the two issues.

Not only was he cooperating, but he also appears to be drunk (or otherwise intoxicated) to the point where he's not likely to put up any substantial resistance or fight.

There's absolutely no excuse whatsoever to the execution of George Floyd.

I keep on stopping myself from writing "cold-blooded", because I cannot fathom this being done in a "cold-blooded" way. For all I know this murderer might have had a bad day, a domestic dispute, or something else that made him lose his cool and act in this barbaric manner of killing a defenseless person while wearing an official government-issued uniform.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

+1 Two wrongs don’t make a right. Because people are wrongfully looting and damaging private and public property has nothing to do with the fact that a human being was murdered. Maybe looting can be discussed on another thread.. this was a person that was killed. Not only did he have a family but he had his own life to live. He is not just a reason for a debate. A small amount of sensitivity should do the trick.

Whites do care!!!

I'm sure the reason the police weren't beating them / arresting them etc here is only because they're white, nothing to do with them standing peacefully and attacking the cops  ::)
I should post some of the videos I've seen of white people "using their privilege" against the NYPD...
