Chauvin was 5 foot 9 and weighed 145 pounds. Floyd was resisting arrest and was high on drugs. Put yourself in Chauvin's position. I hope he is found not guilty. My 2 cents.
Doesn't matter. Only facts that matter are Floyd was Black and Chauvin was White.

Well said.

We have what looks like 2 criminals. One is dead, and the other is on trial with criminal charges.

It remains to be seen if Chauvin is a criminal too, but from what I saw it is not acceptable to do what he did to someone who was restrained.

No one murdered anyone. 1. Check the cause of death. 2. Chauvin followed police procedure - he did what he was trained to do. 3. At least spell the officer's name right.

Can my wife put her knee on your neck for 9 minutes and see if you'll live? I'm 5'11 235 so I'm to big for your weight/height ratio.

The full 24 minute video.

Amazing how a career criminal can be a martyr.

If only these people could learn to follow the officers directions.
For those interested in what happened to George Floyd.
George Floyd's arrest and detention - the actual videos

All of this information was kept from the public for many months😡

George Floyd's arrest and detention - the actual videos
The narrator is George Parry, former federal and state prosecutor. From 1978 to 1983 Parry was the Chief of the Police Brutality/Misconduct Unit of the Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office, which investigated and prosecuted use of deadly force by police.
This video should receive the widest distribution possible. It is a clinical assessment of the entire incident, with on-scene video of all actions from beginning to end.

You live in a fairy tale world. George Floyd was murderd by a police officer who felt he had the right to be judge, jury, and executioner. His prisoner was handcuffed. Other officers were there to assist. George Floyd was murdered.

The "original" videos were edited to fit the msm's narrative. As several said here, the policeman was following police procedure. Floyd complained of not being able to breath when he was 1st put in the car, then he began to be combative (drugs probably). If he'd have stayed in the car, none of this would have happened. He was a "dead man walking" though. The autopsy showed A LOT of drugs in his system. Fentynal is a drug that kills many people and he had a large dose in his body. IF Floyd had been a white man---we'd not even know his name. Chauvin was proclaimed guilty before he even had a trial before a judge because of that community's hate for the police.

Yes! You can debate on how bad Floyd was, but that does not allow for a bully police officer to kill a suspect.

This situation is a mess. The officer has already been found guilty. The family already given 27 million. And if history repeats there will be attacks on communities that result in loss and destruction. All lives matter. Our media driven justice system has added fuel to the fires. Someday humans may learn to be civil.

Rub the pain with 24 million dollars,that will make it better

Not scared to do their jobs...ordered not to do their jobs. Big difference. Been there, done that.

He did follow the law. George didnt. Thats what started this whole fiasco. . Floyd was huger than the cop, high on drugs which give super human strength and chose to fight the cops. His poor decision. And he paid the price for it. It wouldnt matter if he was black, white or purple. He got the same treatment any thug would have gotten. This isnt a race issue.
Let the trial go on and let the jury make a decision. We all know people will riot and burn down and loot their own neighborhoods should the decision be ...not guilty. If found guilty, you will not see that occur because the ones who disagree with that decision are not thugs looking for any excuse to riot.
