Response to ORIGINALSLY. 1) using counterfiet is very serious crime against d country & floyd is a criminal 2) saying that officers there are known to be racist makes u commit falacy of generalization. U cant say all nigerians are terrist b/cos of boko haram? 3) U said that drugs overdose isnt d same as under it influence, u are wrong, any crime commited when taking drugs, is under it influence, such as floyd counterfiet case & resisting to enter police car. U can't blame floyd death entire on d officer b/cos d officer never knew that floyd was overdosed. He only used pin down which is legal under law to effect the arrest due to floyd behavior, but that accelerated floyd death as he was already overdozed. Knee on d neck or any part of d body has been widely used all over U.S during arrest for both blacks & whites & is legal under law. So blame d law & not d officer 4) u can't judge d officer mind to know if he intend to kil or not 5) d city reach settlement due to public pressure & not based on law |

cococandy:I think police officers should be forced to have indemnity just like doctors. When u know a percentage of your salary could be used to settle liability due to your own recklessness, I'm sure they will behave. American police officers are power drunk. They behave like a mafia boss n not civil servants. They have this arrogant attitude their actions are sacrosanct n shouldn't be questioned by the masses. There should also be a national register for police officers. Once u are dismissed by any police dept anywhere in the country, ur name is struck off the national register n can never work as a police officer elsewhere. 1 Like |

Ghostmode2two:Baba can you prove that the police man cause floyd death? Do u know that overdosed alone can kill? Do u know that chokehold has been widely used all over america during arrest of both blacks and whites with varying degree of success? According to autopsy, floyd was extreme & critically overdosed with drugs, the officer kneeling on his neck at the time of overdose only accelerated or hasten his death which was inevitable, But the officers never knew that he was under the influence of drugs overdose, and u can never judge their intention. Law does not judge the intention, law judged the act in accordance with the constitution. So stop swallowing every sentiments the liberals throws at u |

Lomprico2: My only concern is that the police officers will be wrongfully convicted by a corrupt democrat controlled court, because of too much political inteference by the presidency and democrat in the case and also pressure from the media and the woke mob. I am afriad that joe biden will want to used this case to score a political point. I am afraid the officers might not get justice and fairness out of this trial. Democracy is gradually dying in america, and it is great to watch |

BotafogoJunior:Thanks for your diverse view of life. The problem of the world today is mob view and mob rule. I am afraid for the officers as they may be deny justice and fairness due to democrat/presidency political interest and correctness and wanting to please the woke mob. There are three types of truth but only one is important, they are; YOUR truth, MY truth and THE truth(or the law) which is all that matters. How many people in the world today care about THE TRUTH? You can use nairaland as a case study. Already we have already condem the officers before the court trial simply because the mob say so. pathetic |

uunwanaobong3:Well apologies for the insultive words, I was so upset that yesterday before coming online, I can assure you I'm not like that... But looking at George Floyd's case, one can agree with me it wasn't just because he was killed by a white officer(racists) but it was as a result of bottled up emotions involving PoliceBrutality which the blacks has endured for so long, Floyd's case was just a means to vent and showcase their frustrations and just somehow we can say the chaos was politically motivated because Joe biden capitalize on the scenario to clinch power... Quite all right the officer was acting according to law, but the same law ruled against extra-judicial killings by officers of the law, and this was the case of Floyd, who knees on the neck of a suspect for over 9mins in the name of chokehold.... |
Re: City Of Minneapolis Reaches $27M Settlement With George Floyd's Family by uunwanaobong3: 11:55am On Mar 13, 2021 |
Slynation:As u rightly point out the key word is 9 MINUTE, that is excessive time to pin down an individual and that is where negligence and common sense comes in, infact that is where the case will be judge. As for black vs police, i thing the problem is deeply rooted. Statistic show that black make up about 19% in population but are responsible for for about 60% of crime rate, this is due to economic social and racial inequality, broken family, drugs etc so they wil continue to have confrontation with the law, except you ban police which wil lead to more crime. Yes racism exist in america, BUT it is not institutiönalized like what the media says. Racism is the thing of the mind which can be manifested.. Infact we are all racist in nature. As for the use of chokehold, i think the önly remedy here is to amend the constitution & profer a better alternative solution |
