My question: what did the four police officers who had Mr. Floyd handcuffed and on the ground think Mr. Floyd was going to do to them? They had guns, he was unarmed. Are these (former) police officers such frightened little pussies that they think Mr. Floyd was somehow going to roar up and hurt them?
Amazing.

I agree about the police and I think it was a pretty clear cut case of police brutality, but where is this "systemic" racism? Can you point to a particular policy that states blacks can't do this and white people can? Or is this one of those boogiemen that we can't see but think it's there?
