I got a great deal of hate when I mentioned his case on Twitter sometime back and said that the knee on the neck was a training technique taught in the academy.
They tore me up one side and down another and Twitter put me in time out.
Thankfully, the AP came out with an article on it.

He did what he was trained to do. St. Floyd was known to officers in the past. He would eat his drugs and resist often, so part of me thinks the officer should have sought earlier medical treatment but part of me realizes St. Floyd was a frequent flyer in the criminal justice system and all that implies.
People have a tendency to turn on severe dramatics when getting locked up.
It is all hypocrisy. Babbitt was shot at the Capital and the left was like "she deserved it," but we all know that had that been an unarmed black female, that Capital would have burned down that night.

EXPLAINER: Was officer's knee on Floyd's neck authorized?
CHICAGO (AP) — A critical factor for jurors to consider at a former Minneapolis police officer's trial in George Floyd's death is whether he violated the department's policy on neck restraints when he knelt on Floyd's neck.
He did what he was trained to do. St. Floyd was known to officers in the past. He would eat his drugs and resist often, so part of me thinks the officer should have sought earlier medical treatment but part of me realizes St. Floyd was a frequent flyer in the criminal justice system and all that implies.
