42. This Mr. Floyd was undeniably a very noncompliant character.

Even when he had no pulse and had given up trying to breath he remained a non-compliant person, a threatening person, a person to inspire fear, a person hell-bent on derailing a compliant society.

Logical conclusion # 1. The vast experience and extensive training of law enforcement personnel all across this nation has but one purpose it seems. It is to ensure that every last citizen is a model of compliance, killing them by assassination, as required.

Logical conclusion # 2. Papers........please!!!

Logical conclusion # 3. If you're not sadistic enough, not blinded by hate enough, not sufficiently supportive of these efforts to KEEP THE PEACE. You, too, are noncompliant.

Agree. Worse than that, another one of the officers suggests he's not breathing and suggests that wiggs Apr 2021 #7

Neither Brodd or the other retired MN cop who arrested Deminpenn Apr 2021 #32

I missed the earlier bits - Ms. Toad Apr 2021 #34

The arresting cop just came off as fully Deminpenn Apr 2021 #38

Hmm . . . so in addition to the generally realistic fear that most Ms. Toad Apr 2021 #39

It's culturally ingrained fear Deminpenn Apr 2021 #60

I agree Sunsky Apr 2021 #61

You make excellent points Deminpenn Apr 2021 #68

My suggestion was that Floyd had that + Ms. Toad Apr 2021 #66
