Watch the documentary, which is about the lies told to get the convictions and the damage it's done.

I developed more compassion for George Floyd in that... I wasn't aware they found a tumor in his left hip (47:30). He complained of pain and had trouble walking. Hard time breathing under duress... no wonder he went into panic... from his viewpoint. He made it worse on himself, but still... no way the cops would know that, but sad... he'd be in a lot of pain. No wonder he was on so many drugs.

* Officer that arrested him... was black

* Didn't know he was arrested almost identical scenario... with similar difficulties... in 2019.

* Medics forgot to plug in the Oxygen mask before it was installed. Causing further breathing problems. All of that, lead to heart failure.

* 1:03 MRT technique was trained for all police... it's in the manual! That was denied in court.

* $27 million dollar settlement...

* and more...

Those officers need new trials, they shouldn't be there in my view... but that hasn't changed. But the system isn't about fair... it's about control of the masses.

What did you learn and has your viewpoint changed?
