Something that bothers me is that no one has mentioned what he did to be in that car to begin with. His multiple priors is a weak cop out. Just like any other time people use that as a justification for why they died. But, it's worth knowing what he did to be there.

My understanding is that he passed a false bill, and the business owner called the cops.
Also, given that Floyd was clearly under the influence of drugs, I repeat what I said in response to StrategicTactic: deeply intoxicated people are fundamentally frightening to deal with. This would also contribute to why the cops were called in the first place. It doesn't require much of a stretch to believe that Floyd's behavior was scaring people before the cops were on the scene; otherwise the cops would likely not ever have had reason to be there.

I used to bounce at a strip club. I've handled my share of intoxicated people. If you can't handle them, you shouldn't be a cop.

Did you ever have to hold down someone speedballing? Kicking someone out so they can be society's (or the cops') problem is a lot easier than actually having to deal with them

Awesome. I guess the basement of your grandma's house is like a real garden apartment. Also, a Firebird is basically a musclecar with the blue headlamps installed.

A Firebird is a V6 version of a Trans Am
