YoungLionken, how would you have resisted the cop guy. There were 4 cops in case you had forgotten. Please explain what you would have done. I am curious to know!

Normal Liverpool way, ....... Always trying to use the death of an innocent black man to shine. As if they care!....... racist club.
During memorial moment in a match, U will see them forming fake one minute silent and clapping as if they are more dedicated than others,...
But when it comes to paying their poor staff to help sustain them through pandemic times, they(Liverpool) want to furlough the entire club. Nonsense

If the black community in USA ask for funding to help them push this racism fight, believe me Liverpool will not contribute a penny, they will run away............ instead u will see clubs like city, Chelsea, or even arsenal supporting with money.

Just my thoughts, the guy lied too low, no body movements at all like as if his legs were chained or something. no struggle no anything, and it was only one officer that pinned him down. anyways God knows why. RIP to him.
Floyd was pinned down by 3 officers not one!
Re: Liverpool Squad Knelt In Honour Of George Floyd by Vulcan24(m): 8:42am On Jun 02, 2020
This is what happened

police are trained to use that tactic for restrained on aggressive burly suspect resisting arrest. G Floyd actually did.

Then after he was cuffed and taken down the tactic was applied, G Floyd blurted out he's getting choked and can't breathe.... at that point the officers had 2 choices: release the hold and likely start another restraining combat

or

keep G Floyd in position untill he s subdued and lifted into the prowl car.

However Cops are not trained to kill so he should have taken a reasonable precaution to release the hold and call out for assistance to hold suspect down longer but not in that knee tactic position

cop refused to apply discretion cos he's wary of blacks and knows G Floyd is a burly guy ( this perception could be different if he was white) white suspect might be arrested using a different tactic but not pinned to the deck like G Floyd.

this calls to question the cops intention and act, which when fused does not means murder but mans slaughter from negligence

G Floyd has underlying health conditions not known to the Cooper and a reasonable and average person engaging Floyd in combat would have been constrained to act like the cop

conclusively our analysis provided the fact that cop was in line of duty and not out to kill

his tactic was not labelled by the police trainers to be lethal, he only applied it on the suspect with health issues and did not heed to the suspect cries

he is guilty of manslaughter/3rd degree murder and not first degree murder.

protesters should chill and be advised ..... cop shootings are the ones with real cases

the white and black war is rarely the case here.

Luper123:
He was already handcuffed

yes he was handcuffed and could still run and either kill himself or injure n maim others while trying to run.

that is why officers pinned down suspect who initially resist arrest to prevent them from running or harming themselves

when a suspect is cuffed, some flew into panic and become a human Dynamo, destroying things and causing road accident cos running with ur hands at ur back is risky to u n others

DriggityDre:
No.
There were 3 of them and he was handcuffed as well.
You didn't watch the video.

You guys keep coming up with this shii.
Have you been held down by 3 grown men before??
Not the usual play-play hold that young boys do.
Coupled with that, they are officers of the law trained to restrain.

He was hooked!

The man on his neck alone is most likely 220lbs and above.
Oh I didn't see the video well but I thought maybe he must have been chained down as there was nothing like resistance, thanks for the clearance. but no don't tell me about that part if I have been held down by 3men, oh shit it sounds again like a rape case to me. thanks once again...

I was referring to the EPL bro since you seem to know more about who VAR favours tongue
Well I wish your club wins the UCL (which is unlikely)....if they don't,they will end up going trophless and the only 'cup' they may have 'won' this season for their unambitious fans would be defeating the defending champions...

oops sorry I heard there is no such cup in uefa's kitty grin grin

Re: Liverpool Squad Knelt In Honour Of George Floyd by VULCAN(m): 1:21pm On Jun 02, 2020
Your response shows that you are not well educated so I choose to forgive your ignorance of recent history.

A person that cannot respond with facts and figures when he has been proven wrong but responds with insults isn't a person whose opinion should be taken seriously.

Let me repeat it again. If you had access to the Internet or cable TV when Obama was President you would have known that police killing blacks didn't start under Trump.

So blaming the President for the actions of rogue cops shows how low your quality of thinking is.

Do you blame Buhari when Nigerian Police shoots bus conductors for N200?

Now you have access to Internet try and do a little historical research if your brain cells will allow you. It won't take more than an hour.

Same Liverpool who supported Suarez in the racist row with Evra? That Liverpool? They can keep their kneeling in their pockets.

Edit: To all the fools calling me names, Liverpool's chief executive issued thr apology to Evra nine years later. 9 whole years. What were they waiting for for nine years? One thing we have to realize as blacks is that those guys don't rate us. We have to make them realize we are equals. Evra is just a super guy cos if i was issued an apology on racism nine years after the incident, I'll tell them to shove in up their a s s. F u **ing c u n t s!
