    He couldn't breathe very well, and his breathing over time became impaired to the point ofnot being able to talk, or even  go on living. If that racist, p.o.s. cop had listened to Mr.Floyd, he would not be on trial for murder.

    If you can't think, how can you type?

  • The choke being applied wasn't to prevent air to the lungs...but blood to the brain.

    The "I can't breath" was panic induced by claustrophobia..but that's not what killed him.

    That choke did.

    Floyd was saying he couldnt breath while sitting in the back of the cop car "before" the cops put him on the ground...now different angles of video in court is showing the cop had his knee on his shoulder..."before" the trial even happened the family was awarded 25 million dollars...it all seems a bit hoakee to me...

    You don't need to breathe freely to get out some words.  Experts have commented on that and made it clear.

    You could hear how strained his voice sounded. He was being suffocated.

    Have some one kneel on your neck. And see if you can’t force out a few words within nine and a half minutes while face down in handcuffs.

    He could barely verbalize, it is not the same as talking; he said he was suffocating and he was right. The murderer made light of it, like you.
