Elections Amy Klobuchar declined to prosecute the officer who killed George Floyd by kneeling on his neck

[vengeful]

Yeah, that's the point. They aren't "anybody that isn't a cop". He is a cop.

They are not civilians. This isn't a hard concept.

Cops don't deserve special treatment for crimes committed outside of their respective duty. His duty as a cop was fulfilled the moment the suspect stopped resisting.

And he's an ex-cop.

There is a video of the Amaud killing and those guys weren't arrested for a long time. I don't think a civilian in this same circumstance would have been charged already. Look at what would go before the prosecutor:

1. Civilian steps in to help apprehend a criminal
2. Criminal initially resists, causing the civilian to have to restrain him
3. Witness say the criminal was high on crack or a similar drug
4. Civilian restrains the criminal with a knee-on-neck for several minutes
5. Criminal is dead when EMTs arrive

I think a prosecutor would want to see the autopsy before deciding where to go from there.

Lol McMichaels weren't charged because they have a history with the DA, it's the same type of preferential treatment that cops receive and that case was not even close to as bad as this in terms of being able to justify the homicide.


1. Alleged criminal.
2. Civilians do not have the right to forcefully restrain individuals for crimes they didn't witness but let's forget that lil tidbit for argument's sake
3. Witness opinions shouldn't be taken as fact, this will hurt your argument.
4. Civilian restrains for several minutes using a dangerous technique. Civilian is warned that the suspect that is restrained already and handcuffed isn't resisting.... Civilian continues utilizing the dangerous technique (at this point, excessive force as well as assault and battery). Civilian is warned by witnesses that the suspect isnt moving (civilian continues with dangerous technique on a lifeless suspect that is handcuffed with hands in his pockets and a smug look on his face that would make the MAGA Hat kid envious). Civilian is warned by witnesses that the restrained suspect is dead (civilian does not check on suspects condition instead chooses to keep utilizing his dangerous technique on the suspect. EMT arrives and finally the civilian relents as the suspect is taken away and dies.

So, while an autopsy may be necessary for murder charges, charges of excessive force, assault and battery, likely some criminal negligence type of offenses are already established.

She's between a rock and a hard place. I don't know about her past, but people expecting instant justice in this case, are being unreasonable. Of course there has to be an investigation, before you can rack up charges. And there will be charges.

I understand the anger, but people need to be patient. That cop is going down.

Yeah if they rush charges that's how people get off. A rushed job means there are things that might get messed up and the trial can be dismissed.
She also could say we're building our case and justice will be served soon.

Add filing a false police report too.

I know how mad y'all got over Jussie doing that.

crazy that the DNC is entertaining her to be Biden's VP. Not only will she have to defend his sexual assault allegations and racism, she will have to defend her supporting crooked cops
