The burden of proof for racism ?
Zero, Henry was cuffed and arrested immediately.
Burden of proof for murder ?
Saying you can't breathe ten times, Henry never got to that one!
Anyone attempting to fudge this needs to **** off and give their heads the biggest of shakes!
Cops always use to have an understanding of their community, so even if you was a villian they still approached you like an old friend of crimes past, because it made their job easier to do so. There was none of this sticking the cuffs on first or drawing a tasar, that didn't exist in them days.
As soon as the cops arrived, they were told they were trying to sit the guy up, so why would the cops even perceive him to be a threat, there was no need for the cuffs whatsoever, he was on the ground incapacitated and even a ****ing blind man could of told them that.
I remember from my younger day, being taken in a cop car, from there to the cells, and I would have been perceived a risk, but no cuffs in sight, they seem to of lost the ability to communicate with the public these days. Talk to me bro, what's the problem, how many times do you need to be told I can't breath and I've been stabbed.
Even if the coppers thought he was 'faking' it, the people around him were already telling the cops they were trying to get him up. But the Sikh has said he grabbed my turban off, oh right where's the ****ing cuffs, let's take this white guy in.
George Floyd didn't deserve to die, it was disgusting, all because of a little sardistic cop on an ego trip.
I think this was slightly different, BUT only in the fact they've got ****ing midgets as back up these days with no guns. Looking at the cop who put the cuffs on, his arms only seemed of slim build, he was scared and trying to take control of the situation, but failed big time and it cost a life (subjective).
It cost a life, due to training, indoctrination and the inability to fill police officer roles with men who have the neccesary build to deal with situations calmly. A persons presence should be enough to calm a situation, sadly a 5ft copper don't tick that appropriate box unless you are dealing with young children.
