that will teach the beat cops, stuff the perp into the squad car and ignore their pleas to be let out. If they start freaking out, call an ambulance and social workers, and let them deal with it.

No doubt the Legend of George Floyd will be in tomorrow’s textbooks as part of a pivotal point in American Social Justice.
Perhaps we should rename Memorial Day, "George Floyd Day."

Are you bragging, complaining or stating a fact?

Yes they are.

I thought drug addicts use anything they can get their hands on, so are you saying that these aren't accidental drug overdoses are really intentional suicides? Just saying that they know what they want, but they don't know what they get. So meth users don't pop pain pills?
Not any that I knew, addicts develop a preference for one type of drug, if someone is a 'meth addict' opioid pain pills would not cut it for them, and vice versa, opioid users are not into meth.

The only way is to send them back to the academy, and make em not use their knee on someone's neck.

Fentanyl is a powerful painkiller. To give you some context, it is far more potent than morphine and heroin combined. To date, it is the most potent opioid that you can get for relieving pain. Doctors typically prescribe fentanyl when morphine does not work.
Opioids cause the exact opposite of anxiety!


When people die from opioid overdose, they basically fall asleep and stop breathing, opioid use does NOT cause people to 'freak out', in fact they can barely keep their eyes open and stay awake, opioids are a respiratory depressant.

And yet he had an opioid, meth, and cannibis in his system.

The perfect role model for people of color.

He's not, he's a man who lost his temper when a 6'6" criminal refused to be arrested.

Democrats are anti-police so they pass this bill to remove the protections against frivolous police lawsuits.

Immunity doesn't protect police or any government official who is breaking the law.

The qualified immunity protection officers have now makes it harder for people to file lawsuits but not impossible. Search any major newspaper and you'll see lawsuits that have been settled by cities over police actions when they exceeded their authority. The law is fine the way it is.

Making it easier to sue will only cause police to do even less policing and make fewer arrests. Drive-by policing is what Democrats want even though polls show that black communities want the same or more policing than they have.

Meanwhile, district attorneys, judges, parole boards, social workers, and probation officers would continue to have qualified immunity despite the damage they do.
