He wouldn’t be able to talk if he couldn’t breathe. Had he not been a criminal that resisted, been on drugs, and simply complied, he’d likely still be alive today.
Fentanyl doesn't stop you from breathing.
Medical expert teestified that fentanyl was not the factor that crippled Floyd's breathing. Do you have other medical expertise that would prove otherwise?

I still find it hard to believe that one man was sacrificed so the entire United States of America wouldn't be engulfed in yet another round of crime and terrorism.
This is the left's work: the weaponization of the threat of riots and urban unrest for political gain.
Sorry I quoted you -- and you didn't directly say that -- but that's the implication.
If you see the video -- Floyd is a big guy -- he wasn't resisting. He was pleading for his life......but the officer insisted on constricting his airways as if Floyd was resisting.
Even if drugs/alcohol and impaired Floyd's response -- it does not justify the officer using fatal tactics to restrain him for a fake 20 dollar bill.
Why do conservatives feel the need to lie so much?
From your linked source:
Quote:
Citing court records, The Houston Chronicle reported that Floyd had several brushes with the law, starting with a 1997 drug charge in Houston. His last case was an aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon charge in 2007, which resulted in a conviction and a five-year prison sentence.
Whether or not he held a gun to a pregnant woman's belly, it would appear that he was convicted for aggravated robbery with a deadly weapon. So, hardly a paragon of virtue worthy of being immortalized in murals.

Nope, it’s not the implication. It’s your assumption.
Except he resisted to begin with.
If only Floyd wasn’t a criminal, wasn’t on drugs, and didn’t resist, he’d likely be alive today.
