"Yes! Finally we can justify this mans death! He tensed his muscles and didn't do what the officer said! He clearly deserved to have his neck crushed for several minutes! Those silly blacks are all violent thugs anyways lololol"

He clearly deserved to have his neck crushed for several minutes!

I think there's legitimate cause to question whether this contributed to his death. The video shows the extent to which Floyd was being combative and uncooperative, and makes the extra restraint appear to have been necessary.
