Yup.

This cop is a scumbag POS who has no business wearing a police uniform and being in a position to order people around. I hope this guy gets dismissed and ordered to lie in the public square where the entire town can pizz on his face...including dogs. Scroll down and watch the whole video from his body cam. Unbelievable.

No plate on the back of the car but a temporary clearly visible taped on the back window.
Back to Chauvin case, assuming there's any validity that one or more drugs may have contributed to Floyd's vulnerability to asphyxiation, heart stoppage etc, when under the stress of oxygen deprivation, the question might be asked, how much longer would it have taken to kill Floyd if no drugs present...30 seconds longer? a minute longer?
As the pulmonologist expert testified, Floyd is lifeless for well over 3 minutes at the end of the ordeal, with Chauvin remaining with knee on neck and back and full body weight compressing air out...lifeless. Even after he's been told there's no pulse.
Regardless, the testimony has been rather overwhelming that Chauvin's decisions directly precipitated Floyd's death, those actions were against policy and training, and the jury can see not simply a reckless disregard for Floyd's life but a callous, intentional disregard.
I don't know all the legalisms, but sure does not line up with the nonsense the troll tried to tell us after it happened.
There are way, way too many of these sorts of cops on police forces. That said, it is heartening to see the unanimity of rejection of this sort of policing, and the holding an officer accountable, by the Minneapolis police command structure. Sure, it's long overdue, but it's a major step in the right direction.
