not only that, he called 911 because he was off his medication and needed help and the cops laughed at him when he passed out under their weight.

obviously there are still racist cops, but police brutality happens to everyone. I always think back to that video where the cops kept giving that guy commands in the hotel hallway and then blasted him away because he was crawling backward and his basketball shorts kept falling down and he tried to pick them up. cop had "you're fucked" written on the dust cover of his rifle but evaded charges

[goigle]

I actually don't care about the dust cover thing, but that's me. Words are meaningless to me. To be honest, If I was American and had guns. I'd probably have something equally "awful" written on my gun. Shit, that would have the second amendment written on the mag, a bald eagle on the side, and it would be wrapped in an American Flag. I ain't even religious but, heck I'd have the quote from Pulp Fiction on there as well. But with all that said;

Edit: He wasn't charged? That's even shittier.

I don't care what's written on personal guns, but a department rifle is another thing. It's unprofessional at best

No one has really been saying its an economic issue, which it is.

I've just incited a mass riot, looted 3 family-run stores and burned down a church and you're telling me it wasnt even racism that killed him?

If they were on the job under a week I feel like that's more on the PD for having such a shitty trainer

Lane was also new to the job, only on the force for four days when the incident occurred, his attorney Earl Gray claimed. His lawyer said that Lane twice asked Chauvin, a training officer, “Shall we roll him over?” He also expressed concern that Floyd may be in “delirium.”

“What is my client supposed to do other than follow what the training officer said?” Gray said in court.

Why is no one talking about the latter? Are black lives more important than asian lives now?

Maybe because the former is in a democratic country where it's legal to protest?
Or just maybe it took a nationwide civil unrest, protests, riots, looting, the involvement of the national guard in the most richest, most powerful developed country in the world for him and the other police officers get fired and charged? Like others mention, it's not the murder of Floyd that caused the civil unrest, the murder only sparked it. This was coming, the black community were tired of it for decades and time to time they protested, rioted, looted and made noise and it brought no significant changes. Now? The murder sparked something so bad that made Trump threaten martial law, with protests and riots all across the 50 states and countries from all over the world, this is huge. 

A large portion of the population were clearly tired, angry, getting hostile, felt discriminated, they had enough. It was such an obvious sign of a growing civil unrest and no one took them serious, and ignored them or showed sympathy then forgot about everything a week later, they were tired of not seeing changes. So it took a camera to spark a civil unrest that wanted to see not just Derek facing charges, but also Alexander, Thomas, and Tou. And guess what? all 4 police officers are now facing charges, not just Derek. After this, there's no way there will be any police officer getting acquitted or slapped on the wrist again without burning the fucking country.

Just because they were charged after protests does not mean that the cause of the charges was the protests. Every time a cop kills someone or even fires a gun and misses, they are placed on administrative leave pending an investigation. Sure, the protests sped up the time table, but it was going to happen anyway. The legal process does not work at lightning speed. Everything has to be 100% accounted for or else a smart lawyer can rip it apart in court.

to a man high on narcotics who had (Apparently) resisted arrest.

Video evidence shows he non-violently resisted arrest while being removed from his vehicle and before being put into the officer's car, but from what I know theres nothing that shows how he got to the ground in the first place

@"Faustin"‍ Wow you really think that this movement is all about riots and looting; you are part of this problem. How is it that every other BLM protest in London so far has been peaceful then? Stop spreading fear when all these people are trying to spread is love and equality.
