Here is his rap sheet. All it shoes is aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, which is bad enough.

I suspect cops hear people say they "can't breathe" all the time. People will say all kinds of things if they think it'll get them out of being arrested. I'm having a heart attack, I'm going to pass out, I'm going to puke, I've got diarrhea, etc, etc... Lately they'll even say they have covid.

It’s the police’s job to deal with people who are under stress and who are non cooperative. If they can’t do that without killing them they should look for another line of work.

I’m surprised so many on the right are ok with this level of overstep by agents of the state.
Police do get most of these uncooperative people arrested without killing them. Of all encounters the statistics of police killing unarmed people is pretty rare considering. People resist because they don’t want to go to jail and will do anything to get out of it. People kill cops frequently. The police encounter lots of extreme situations. Not all police are good, not all police are bad, probably all police have some form of PTSD, and I wouldn’t want to live in this country without them. It’s a tough job but somebody’s got to do it.

A halfway intelligent or well intending person does what the police officer tells you to do PERIOD. 2nd if you have multiple arrests in your record or a significant history of serious drug use it shouldn't come as a surprise you're headed for a dead end. But no..........our media and liberals running around want to aggrandize these people with these tendencies as if they are pure and innocent and have nothing to do with the outcome which is the end of their lives.
Like Breona Taylor?

Yeah but he was a perfect Democrat because he was drug addicted violent fool who could be manipulated to serve the aims of the Dems. His drug use and resisting arrest have landed his family at least $68M....how many can top that?
