One thing I noticed in the video, was one officer did get up on the man laying flat in the street and for about a minute the officer had his feet off of the ground, and had all of his weight on the victim with both his knees in the victim's abdomen or crotch area, while the other officers held the man to the ground.
Everybody knows that is totally illegal procedure now! The victim only weighed 140 lbs and died of internal bleeding!
All of these officers weighed over 190 lbs!
And even though only 5 officers were involved in the Beat DOwn, there were other officers there, and yes even WHite Officers that didn't do anything to stop what was going on or render aid to the victim.
So I see some similarities to the Floyd case.

Exactly.
Again - not saying it IS racism here. But it's the race of the victim that is the primary factor here.
Why was he running like that? Likely because he feared for his life. For a traffic stop. I don't think many white people think that way - and it's not because of something imaginary.

Oh, I agree. Most of our LE officers are great people who risk their lives to keep us safe. The MAGAs only vilify them when they're bringing other MAGAs to justice - like when they were all claiming the FBI planted documents in twump's stinky country club. They loved the FBI when they were investigating Clinton.

We still have not seen any evidence of Nichols' wrongdoing. It's not a stretch to assume it was because he was "driving while black". Just because the scumbag officers happened to be black doesn't mean they can't treat black suspects differently than white suspects.

Follow the chronology of the posts, you simpleton!
YOU and your ilk put forth the LIE of the subject title of this thread that the OP link doesn't even support! And you're STILL babbling all over the place with the SOS of racist rhetoric....reversed racism where none is proven.
YOUR "argument", lint for brains.....not mine. You're just pissed because I've got your number in print, and all your repetition and denial won't change that. Prattle on, pointy hood.

I tell the truth to the best of my ability, which is really fucking good because I was smart enough to get myself educated....what happens after that is not my fault.
