He has a black glove on his hand that blends with his pants.Is it just me or is anyone else think it is a bit strange how the policeman who is calmly murdering George Floyd has his hand jammed in his pants pocket the entire time?
I think he was reaching for pepper spray or something to keep bystanders away. It almost seemed like he was continuing to kneel on him so long after the victim became lifeless just to show them that he "could." It was as if he was making some kind of a statement.Is it just me or is anyone else think it is a bit strange how the policeman who is calmly murdering George Floyd has his hand jammed in his pants pocket the entire time?
That is one strange, incoherent 911 call.911 transcript of call that brought police to George Floyd released
MINNEAPOLIS (FOX 9) - The 911 transcript of the call that led Minneapolis Police to George Floyd on Memorial Day night shows that the caller thought a black man in their business was drunk and gave them fake bills in exchange for cigarettes.
Have they confirmed yet that the money was counterfeit?911 transcript of call that brought police to George Floyd released

I agree it looked like a pride thing. Like he was spiting the outlookers and didn't want to let up because he thought it would make him look weak. Pathetic and senseless.I think he was reaching for pepper spray or something to keep bystanders away.

It was so horrifying to watch four police officers ignore and hold off the witnesses while they pleaded with them to stop. Yet he just kept on, with no sign of concern or remorse. He must have known he was already dead, or at least that he was in immediate need of medical attention at that point.

I couldn't get any sound but it looked like a very short clip. Was the one that was ten minutes long posted here?@NBCNews has obtained new video showing 3 officers on the ground with George Floyd in Minneapolis — previously we had only seen one officer on the ground with Floyd and another standing New video shows another angle of George Floyd being restrained by police and saying he can't breathe before his death.
I have been asking the same question - what the hell were they waiting for?
No, this was someone who was causing problems at the riots. He was caught using a big metal hammer to break out windows in the businesses near the 3rd precinct. The demonstrators were being accused of it, but they were trying to make him stop. He was caught on video and has been unofficially identified. His face was partially covered by a big gas mask. Allegedly, he was identified by an acquaintance from the photo the demonstrators took. This happened last night.
Here is a link to my post with a link to video of the disruptor who was damaging property, breaking windows, trying to get the peaceful demonstrators in trouble.
MN - George Floyd, unarmed man killed in police custody, Minneapolis, 25 May 2020
This is driving me insane. Has anyone heard a reason as so why they kept him on the ground so long? Why, what were they waiting for?
Not to make light of the situation, but he was "causing problems at the riots" made me laugh a little.
I would be interested in seeing the full video, five minutes prior to when the man was cuffed and on the ground.
Yes, folks breached the doors and (all police evacuated and accounted for) now they are burning the precinct down. I’m hearing just so much off in the distance, such a huge emergency, it’s surreal.I just watched them start the fire on live stream. Seems like protesters have scared off the police.
