Yes, it's impossible to determine a person's tolerance for a drug from a corpse.

Floyd's tolerance for Fentanyl was clearly high enough that he could stay lucid and oriented on a dose that would kill a first-time user.

And then we all watched a man kill him. With our own eyes.

He ingested 10X the lethal dose of Fentanyl that any human has ever survived.

This is beyond a threshold in need of 'determining tolerance.'

Your links don't support anything you said.

The first link says that 2 mg of pure fentanyl can kill a person. No information on what anyone has ever survived.

The second link says that Floyd's blood fentanyl level was 11 nanograms (.000011 mg) per mL of blood.

From these numbers it is possible to conclude... absolutely nothing.

Here's a paper, though, that says the average overdose from fentanyl occurs at 26.4 ng/mL:

In other words, Floyd had about half the amount of Fentanyl in his blood that people usually die from.

I've never taken fentanyl but I've watched a lot of videos about fentanyl and the way they describe it if you just blink wrong when you're looking at the stuff you'll die.

Bottom line George Floyd was a typical convict he has a record as long as any you've ever seen.

George Floyd was not cooperating with the police officers which is a typical situation where police officers can get shot easily and in my opinion those officers acted very gently with him they could have been much rougher.

It's a very dangerous drug. There are about 500,000 Americans addicted to fentanyl, and each year, about 100,000 of them die.

Of course, it's so addictive that addicts do it basically every day, and that means that every year, 400,000 Americans take fentanyl almost daily and don't die.

Correct.

George Floyd was not cooperating with the police officers which is a typical situation where police officers can get shot easily and in my opinion those officers acted very gently with him

Chauvin knelt on his neck until he died. That's not gentle.

Maybe you think it's okay for police to go around executing petty criminals and drug addicts. I don't share that opinion.
