    Resisting arrest is not punishable by death. The cop is not a jury. If you choose to resist, the punishment should be reasonably forceful arrest.

    Also, some of the people you think were resisting arrest were sleep in their apartment. So…?

      So they definitely weren’t resisting a rest.

        Ah, the high risk situation of being called to deal with a man falsely accused of a non-violent crime, and an unruly mob of people keeping their distance and “begging the men with guns and armor not to murder a man in the street”. I can definitely understand why shitty cowards would feel threatened.

        lied about in court

        I’m gonna go with “nah”. He was found guilty, so he’s a guilty murderer.
        I’m shocked a bootlicker like yourself would have such doubts in the system. Or is it because they actually found a cop guilty and you just can’t accept such a travesty? Just think of all the black kids he could have threatened!

        Go to hell.

        I didn’t mention Floyd. The fact you have to put words in my mouth and then argue against them proves that you know you’re wrong.

          Ms Taylor’s killing should make anyone distrust the justice system. I don’t care if she shot first. Middle of the night home invasions are a situation in which one cannot assume reasonable avenues for retreat and if you don’t know it’s the cops why the fuck shouldn’t you be shooting.

          And it’s not like the cops actually help when you’ve actually had a home invasion…
