(115,686 posts)watching the cops haul Floyd out of the squad car and pin him down. They replayed the video where you could hear Floyd saying he couldn't breathe over and over. Very disturbing just to watch on TV, obviously extremely upsetting for the witness.

(1,697 posts)Was driving by, saw the cops and stopped to be nosy. I think he pleaded with Mr. Floyd to comply. "Man you can't win."
