You just gave a textbook example of how to modify your initial view based on seeing a few more facts. If only everyone here was as flexible...
It's why you and I can totally disagree on something, and yet argue like civil, logical adults.
But again, if only...
Back to Floyd however. Let's just say he
had resisted arrest. I say his killing by the police officer still amounts to murder.
Nowhere in the police handbook does it justify the killing of a citizen because they've resisted arrest.
They're only supposed to use enough force to subdue the person and perform the arrest.
But lately, especially with "white cop/black man", nothing could be further from reality.
Plenty of killings have happened without due cause.
Remember.... the officer's life or welfare must be endangered before he should be able to use lethal force.
We're waaaaaayyyyy beyond that now... don't you think?
Police forces across America are in dire need of a complete overhaul. Gotta get those rotten apples outta there.
