    I have to say this---knowing full well the response---but so be it.

    There is a pattern here of "shaming" the recent victims of Police confrontation. Somehow it seems that if you can discredit the "victim" they become sub-human and in doing that their death has no value or importance. George Floyd might have been on drugs, he might have done bad things in his life---but he was handcuffed---and he died. Nothing he had ever done or was doing at the time would be considered a capital offense---but it turned out to be one.

    The same is true with many of these victims---you might not want to invite them to your table for dinner---but that doesn't mean they should now be dead.

    If you think their deaths were justified then argue that based on the merits of the event---not nonmaterial trappings that are dug up or made up in an effort to divert the real issue.

    That said---what the hell difference does it make. If she was fired does that make it OK that she is now dead?
    Right, she was working as an ER tech because she was fired from Metro Govt. as an EMT for drugs. The fact she was fired is meaningless, the fact she was fired for drugs goes a long way to show she was involved in drugs. Media however, continue to show her in her Louisville EMS uniform and claim she was working as an EMT. Big thing, no, but all the little lies tend to bend the story, now don't they. In any case, bottom line, Walker fired on the police first, they returned fire. No crime. People saying Mattingly and Cosgrove should be charged with murder simply want revenge, not justice.

    I guess you knew him and the rest of the gangsters? I don't think it's a matter of shaming, people that are innocent, sober and haven't spent their lives in jail don't need extra restraints and precautions. People that are high and have a history of criminal activity are not so easily arrested plus they tend to shoot at you! I wonder how many police would die if we treated all the known felons the same as everyone else. I guess you and the rest of the left are fixing to show us?
    This is your mind on drugs!

    Then the dip**** shouldn't have taken 3-4 times a lethal dose of fentanyl....... anytime someone dies in police custody, people want to claim the police killed them It's simply not always the case. Should Chauvin have turned him over and called EMS sooner, sure, but it likely would not have made any difference, Floyd was a dead man from the second he swallowed those drugs.

    For the record he did not actually swallow the drugs he shoved them up his butt.

    He told the officers that he had been “hooping” (shoving drugs up his butt) and one of the responding officer’s body cameras caught Saint George putting some pills in his mouth. So, there is every reason to believe he took drugs both ways — up his azz and down his throat, which is a good explanation why he was so drug overloaded that his body quit working. It just so happens he died when a cop was on top of him.

    Yep, what Waco said. He took his dose up his butt, but when they were arresting him he shoved the rest of the pills in his mouth and swallowed them so he wouldn't be prosecuted for having them. Common ploy by druggies, they think if they OD they will get to the hospital, be revived, and not have the charge. Unfortunately for St. George, fentanyl doesn't work that way. It shut his respiratory system down on the spot.

    Stop shaming the dead guy with drugs up his butt.

    I'll have to amend my above statement that Breonna Taylor was fired from her position at Louisville Metro EMS for stealing drugs. This evidently, was a incorrect story I heard. Therefore, I wish to offer my mea culpa in repeating what now appears to be a false accusation. My bad. She was not fired for stealing the drugs, she was fired when the police found a dead body in the trunk of her rental car.

    Remember how desperate Breonna Taylor’s family and the BLM rioting crowd were for the release of grand jury and prosecution records? Well, they were released a couple of weeks ago, but you have heard or read Butkus about what was in them from the glorious MSM, right? Check out what was in them from the underground press, which has no interest in whitewashing the reputation of Taylor —
