keepit ★★★★★ (3074)	The proximate cause of Floyd's death wasn't heart disease. He lived just fine with that every day. The proximate cause wasn't fentanyl. He'd been metabolized that level down prior to his encounter with the police. The proximate cause was pressure on his neck causing a reduction in the flow of blood to his brain and also pressure to his chest making it more laborious to breathe. Proximate cause is an important concept in emergency medicine and enters into legal cases frequently.

Proximate cause is an important concept in emergency medicine and enters into legal cases frequently. Floyd died of a drug overdose. Floyd was down on the ground at his own request because he refused to sit in the back of the police car (with the windows open or the AC on). He complained about not being able to breathe (which requires breathing, btw) well before any knee was on him.

keepit ★★★★★ (3074)	The court will have to determine the method of intake to determine how long it had been since he took the fentanyl. If they can prove the fentanyl was just taking effect they defense might have a case.

He needs to show that Chauvin "beyond a reasonable doubt" murdered Floyd.

Of course democrats seem to think everything is legal, if you don't get caught...

Nope. The officer wasn't on his chest. Floyd was yelling, "I can't breath!"

keepit ★★★★★ (3074)	Floyd didn't die of a drug overdose imo. The effects of opioids don't increase after they've been taken and he was seen for almost an hour at the store in which he didn't take any drugs. Unless he had taken a timed release version of fentanyl (and the is no evidence of this), then he wouldn't die of drug overdose an hour after taking the drug. The peak blood levels would occur immediately after taking the drug (the exception being a timed release version), not an hour later. Trying to prove drug overdose as the cause of death is a losing cause unless he was taking a timed release version. No proof of that so far. He looked to me that he was having a panic attack.

keepit ★★★★★ (3074)	ibd, So, you're claiming that dead people don't have panic attacks. What's your point? My point is that he may have been having a panic attack. Also, it is apparent that restraint by knee to the neck should have stopped when Floyd stopped being combative. Floyd stopped being combative several minutes before the knee was removed. If the knee had been removed when he stopped being combative, he would have lived imo.

Did you read my post? keepit wrote:My point is that he may have been having a panic attack. How useful is it to identify individual possibilities? Might he have been thinking about refinancing? He may have been thinking about refinancing. Dying doesn't usually bring about thoughts of refinancing but he might have been thinking that. Would you mind listing off all the possibilities of the situation? That way we'll have the benefit of a complete list. Please don't omit any of the remote possibilities because they truly complete the big picture. keepit wrote: Also, it is apparent that restraint by knee to the neck should have stopped when Floyd stopped being combative. You mean restraint of the upper shoulder. Why should it have ceased? Floyd wasn't letting up. Floyd should have never FORCED the cop to put him in that situation. Hemofilliacs should never pick fights. Belligerent druggies with heart conditions shouldn't get lit, engage cops and then resist arrest. Are you under the impression that they should? The problem was Floyd, not the cops following procedures to protect the community. Once again, Floyd was the problem. Floyd got himself killed. Floyd was an idiot keepit wrote: If the knee had been removed when he stopped being combative, he would have lived imo. ... because you went to medical school, right? Of course you didn't go to medical school. Ask me how I know. Question: How did the knee to the shoulder cause a heart attack? Answer: It didn't. The knee to the shoulder wasn't a factor. George Floyd's drug abuse and heart condition caused him to go into cardiac arrest and to die. That much is obvious. An ambulance was called but Floyd's body was just too insistent on dying right away. The police were not factors in the death. They just happened to be present at the time of Floyd's heart attack. I see that the sum of your medical training is to blame the people and objects in proximity to a heart attack ... for the heart attack. Too funny. Have I ever mentioned that you are a moron? I don't remember at the moment if I have or not. . Attached image:

keepit ★★★★★ (3074)	ibd, btw, i did go to paramedic school. It seems likely that Floyd suffered respiratory arrest followed by cardiac arrest. Not the other way around as you say. I think the resp arrest was due to fatigue as a result of struggling against the neck and body pressure put on him by the officers. This not to say that he got so tired that he stopped breathing. He got tired as a result of the pressure and thereby became too weak to continue adequate breathing. Edited on 02-04-2021 18:27

Gee, when I was a senior in high school, I took the Red Cross Advanced Lifesaving class, and got certified to be a lifeguard. Never used it though, got a better paying job, while waiting for an opening. Then went to college in the fall. Cop should have used on of the electronic restraints... Let him flop an twitch on the pavement... Floyd's refusal to cooperate, should have opened the door, to any means necessary. An innocent man, doesn't resist.
