First Responders Warned About Accidental Fentanyl Exposure

Did any of you read the autopsy results from Hennepin County that said that George Floyd had "contributing factors" of Fentanyl and Methamphetamine intoxicant".

I do think that the police officers were negligent but I still support the knee on neck procedure for them to use when a person is strongly resisting arrest.

I think it is wrong to prejudge groups of people such as police officers and people who are addicted to drugs AND I think we still will hear many more FACTS about all of this sad incident, BUT I doubt no matter WHAT we learn, most people will NOT change their mind.

I think most of the terrible things that have happened are because of all of our unrealistic expectations of almost all people as a society. I do think that if a person has been investigated for issues with excessive force more than twice he/she should be fired THEN and I do believe that someone that has been sentenced to prison four times is not a good upstanding citizen but should not die from hatred and negligence. I think that drug addiction and all of the things that are related to it are one of the underlying factors for much of felony crime...and I don't know what the hell we as a society can do to stop it.

I don't think ANY of the horrible things are as simple as some people make them.

I know that again, when I smile at many black people who I will run into for many years, they will not smile back. That in itself is very, very, sad and troubling.
