Mr. Floyd looks to be partially responsible for his own death.


And there hasn't been trial yet. Getting a verdict of second degree murder is going to be tough in light of some simple facts.

1. Mr. Floyd wanted to get out of the car.
2. Mr. Floyd said he couldn't breath in the car.
3. Mr. Floyd said he couldn't breath when he was restrained on the ground.
4. Mr. Floyd may have had an almost lethal dose of a drug in his system.
5. Mr. Floyd kept saying he couldn't breath when he actually could. Doesn't seem the pressure on his back was as much as we think.

This certainly doesn't look racial. And it looks way less malicious than it did when we first saw the video.
