Testimony Continues On Day 2 Of Chauvin Trial | NBC Nightly News
did anyone see the cut off where when the officers had Floyd in the vehicle and started pulling him out, Chauvin had both hands around Floyd's neck.
Not Guilty
Derek Chauvin is s straight murderer, he knew what he was doing he squeezed the life out from George Floyd. He put the pressure on Georges neck knowing it.
Humanity speaks volumes!!
The real movement dumb lives splatter
None of this makes any sense to me. In broad daylight with people all around? I don't understand either he didn't care at all about killing the guy for some unexplained reason or he's a complete moron. Which one is it here?
The George Floyd case shows that the US has the world's worst record for human rights abuses both domestically and internationally..
The burning, shooting and looting that happened last year wasn't BLM or Antifa. It was thieving Americans from both the left and the right.
Extremism within the US police and military ranks maybe why US troops have been stationed in Germany since 1945.
Is the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act being updated in real time from this online trial?
Junkie is a Junkie. Did the Officer break the law ? I don't want emotional opions. What does the LAW say ?
Floyd died from an overdose. Police use the knee on the neck technique regularly.
Media glorified him as black Jesus or something, he was just an ordinary street thug.
He also had a record of threatening pregnant women with guns, currency fraud.
He was reaching for stuff in his car when the cop was telling him to keep his hands on the wheel.
Floyd was a criminal who killed himself with a fentanyl overdose.
Facts.
It's called police corruption and everybody in well knows this even when the Somalian dude shot the white girl he the Somalian dude was a police officer and he shot that white woman cuz he heard something he shot her her the and he locked up so do the same to this officer
They try to cover this s*** up and you guys know that they wouldn't even let the ambulance lady in come on now that's her job to help
This is still so painful because George was so submissive he dint try to shovel himself from under this man.while he kept pressing harder and would not release his knee. And we saw him handcuffed by any law the man was to be driven to jail and tried. No more needed. We have seen people shot no weapons choked no weapons beaten in jail no weapons.sitting in car hands up no weapon.. For all the George Floyds ðŸ™ÂÂðŸ™ÂÂðŸ™ÂÂ
As a minority, if other minorities would just stop challenging and comply when in the wrong. We wouldn’t be wasting time with cases like Floyd, just let the officer off and let’s move on America. Nobody wants to defund the police or ostracize the police anymore then what these BLM idiots already have done. He was a junkie that died when he decided he was above the law and dies as a result. Boo-Hoo, you reap what you sow. The family already got paid, no need to ruin this officer’s life anymore then what the race baiters have already done.
Blah, blah, blah!!
Chauvin and Floyd worked together at the same club…why isn't that important?
what kind of reprobate lawyer would blame the crowd standing by watching while chauvin was murdering a helpless man ? typical police doing what they do best… legal murderer with lawyers defending their actions.
Don't forget George Floyd would still be alive if he didn't get high and use a counterfeit bill at a store. This in no way excuses Chauvin but it's a life lesson.
Not guilty!
Do you think like for instance I think that man,who is globally defamed as criminal George Floyd is in reality great, courageous, heroic, spotless,clean law enforcement officer-whistleblower of DEA or FBI,who risked his life to fight against drug-criminality and other organized criminality?
I had no idea the paramedics showed up and they were prevented from helping on top of it!!!
Crocodile tears, Chauvin is a hero, OJ Simpson is a murderer.
Asian lives matter -ALM
Strong Young 💪💪💪💪
As a white mom in Suburbia I have to report that besides the grotesque crime committed by the police officers, the thing that breaks me most is that the community did not rush and tackle the police, or call the state troopers in, or the firehouse, or the football team. What mental abuse has that Community endured that would cause them to have the presence of mind to Stand By and Watch without going crazy? How many incidents have they endured? The community has been so abused and reviled that they had no hope of saving George. It's heart- wrenching.
In My Pride I would like to think I would be one to rush in and wildly throw things and scream to try and stop or distract them, or go get my car and approach them, doing something, ANYthing, to shake up the mesmerizing power of that torturous death. Annnnd get shot. So to realize that these bystanders and nearby shoppers and shop owners were all paralyzed in fear …or watching in appreciation… is honestly too big for my brain. It's just so terrible. So shameful that we have allowed such demeaning racism to thrive.
The community was almost trained NOT to respond. Knowing they absolutely would be next. So they watch in terror, minute after minute, as though there was NOTHING else to do. Almost like it was normal. Or EXPECTED. That THIS was not the first, OR LAST time. That it was not all THAT outrageous. I will never forget that officer's hand on the hip attitude. What an animal. Such hate.
It makes me tear up right now that this nation has such vile pockets of abuse that is protected by others and is so sick and arrogant to have just discarded and overlooked these abused and abandoned souls. Our fellow American citizens… churchgoers, ex-military, students, … that none could Step Out CHANGE the Disgusting outcome. All of the shop owners up and down the walkway…Where were they hiding? It's a torturous monstrous mark on our generation, young and old.
We have to start taking care of our own…by taking care of others around us. We worship our sports teams but are unwilling to have one another's back in real life against violence and abuse and hatred? We know HOW…we just WON'T do it? This is such an outrage. We MUST Change this. YET, every day, somewhere, someone closes their door to the 65yo Asian lady on the ground. Oh, it makes the national news. They are already being killed. But won't reach out to help each other? THAT'S how ingrained this is. No more. We have to stop.
May God have mercy on us all for such hatred over something HE ordains…skin color. May he allow us time to change. These events are opportunities to make the future better than this. Don't lose the moment. We don't know how many more we get.
Is NBC delete my message "US support the "Protesters" in HK to set an old man on fire!"?
If anybody watched the full uncensored body an footage, he was saying he couldn’t breathe several times before they even had him on the ground.
soze.. here is the question … if the police officer truly felt George Floyd was dangerous and a menace to society… should he given him a little breathing room?…
INNOCENT
Once in your life stop lying tell the truth
Why are they giving this anymore publicity the family got 27 million already
They all witnessing a Murder in front of them by a Murderer one officer Derek Chavun
Chauvin needs to be acquitted and compensated for all his troubles.
Can bad police put drugs in a suspects system via mouth, l know they can plant drugs on them
Chauvin = a pile o' 💩
Free Derek!
George = 💩
I'm not a betting man but I bet the floyd family would rather have the 27 million dollars than have George floyd back
Chauvin knew Floyd both worked security at a local establishment, this murder was on a personal level
Was just thinking how many time's i have hear all about drug's when. Some people have died in police encounters.
But don't thank i have ever hear the officer was on drugs doing the encounter.
At time's officers have crossed the line and were not on drugs
What is that saying about the officer's if there's no drugs in there system making them cross the line.
Then what makes them tham thank its ok.
Where in the officer's training did he Lear this as proper police work.
How many hours of traning did the officer receive in doing this
How many hour's of traning did the officer get on when to use this action
Is the officer cerfide in using this action
At time's it's had to know what's right or wrong at other times it's ease.
F these cops.
All 5 should be held accountable
All I know is don’t do drugs Chinas fentanyl Choice Matter.
THANK GOD THERE'S PEOPLE WITH A CONSCIOUS ON ALL LEVELS OF DECENCY AND HUMANITY……
There's a such thing called a good Samaritan, consciousness, integrity, decency and humanity.
If, you don't get it, now
I hopefully, you now.
They, say "To Protect and Serve".
The questio is, who?
seems anyone putting guns to pregnant womens tummies is in need of removal anywayz
