Floyd did not die because of Chauvin’s knee, he died three hours later in the hospital, due to an overdose of Fentanyl. Here’s the dope on the dope:
“Fentanyl
Common brands: Duragesic, Abstral, Subsys
Narcotic - It can treat severe pain
Controlled Substance
High risk for addiction and dependence
Can cause respiratory distress and death when taken in high doses or when combined with other substances, especially alcohol or other illicit drugs such as heroin or cocaine.”
Note that Floyd was saying that he couldn’t breathe, both before and after Chauvin put him in the knee-hold. It was the drug he took, not Chauvin’s knee that killed him.
What we see here is what I call the Dalai Lama effect: the magic transformation of a thug into a high priest of purity and holiness as soon as he expires in police custody. This must be done to absolve the black underclass from ever taking responsibility for their own terrible life choices, and to avoid having them burn down yet another town in a liberal state where police are too cowed to stop them.
