I've heard the officer's record of complaints mentioned many more times than I've heard the background of George Floyd or the fact that he was being arrested for committing a crime.

According to some, he was simply walking down the street minding his own business and the police just attacked and killed him. That is what is throwing fuel on the fire.

None of us have heard all of the evidence. We don't know what happened prior to the video. I admit that it does look bad for this officer, but I'll reserve judgement until I know all of the facts.

And that right there is the crux of this current problem. People are coming to conclusions before all fo the facts are known and that has what has added fuel to the fire.
