ok
so the warrant wasnt changed, they were ordered to knock and announce
Which in my opinion is a downgraded warrant.
so we can pin the culpability for that on whoever did the ordering
Eh? I still think the culpability resides with whomever ordered the original warrant.
Unless we're trying to guess 'what would have been' if they were to execute it as a no-knock warrant.
i am not a fan of no knock warrants
Oh, I hate them.
They're anti-American.
but i would say in this case there would probably be less dead people
If executed as a no-knock?
yeah
of course if no warrant was issued there would be no dead people as well
You could certainly argue that, but I have a feeling he kept his gun close to him at all times.
Why were people not protesting before George Floyd?
Remember, they have to clear rooms, it would take a bit to reach the opposite end of the hall to overwhelm him.
but they were more localized
not widespread
Breonna Taylor happened before Floyd IIRC.
Why did the media decide to report and spread this news during a pandemic?
It's mostly about the media and what they decide to put on the front page so people can know about things. Why weren't people spreading news beforehand?
has the media ever not reported things to gin up tensions and create maximum outrage?
@ImNotGas, you just advanced to level 17!
Arbery was sparking outrage before Floyd IIRC.
So was Taylor.
ah yeah
Floyd was sort of the 'last straw' moment.
It's been sung about for 40 years
50 years, since civil rights movement? I just can't believe it took this long
it's really sad
police should have dropped bodycam footage immediately
but good for now, but I just feel too manipulated by media
To be fair, changes like that take generations after generations.
i have no idea why they didnt with the floyd thing
is it true floyd had corona when he was arrested?
Depends on jurisdiction.
I don't like arguing in peoples deaths, but things can be taken out of context all the time
