The narrative being pushed of “was Floyd a good person”...Let’s be honest. This is an attempt to justify his murder, to say he had it coming?

The man may have been a rotten character.  But counterfeiting is not the death penalty.  For those people that killed him they need to face murder charges.

And I need to be tried by black people.

The white police officers discriminated against the man because he was black. When was the last time a white man got choked to death by the police?

Nope, it is to show true character, history, and why having to pull him back out of the car becouse he wasn't behaving, was necessary.

I don't care whether he was a good person or not.

It is totally unnecessary to maintain a carotid choke on a man who is already restrained and down.

No, I think it's an attempt to justify how he was treated (overall), not that he should have died.

Only dumb emotional fux like you think counterfeiters, thugs, career criminals, drug addicts and cop haters are good people.

Actually, that's clear as mud.

People are justifying his murder because he was a good person?  Makes no sense.

The people who made Floyd a martyr and gave him the equivalent of a state funeral complete with a golden casket are a bunch of freaking idiots.  Floyd was a lifelong criminal. 

But that doesn't mean he deserved to die for what is apparently yet another minor crime he committed.

Pretty clear. It's victim bashing.

No.  It's an attempt to explain why the officer felt it necessary to restrain Floyd in the way he did which, in the defense's view, makes the restraint NOT murder.
