Let’s put George Floyd into perspective - and before folks start trashing him.

THIS was merely weeks ago. Dude is wielding a knife and an a hatchet.

Police de-escalate white suspects all the time without killing them. https://t.co/3HIvxd9da8

@RexChapman see also: Dylan Roof - kills 9 and the officers go on a run to Burger King because he was hungry. Not a scratch on him.

@RexChapman @MichaelRapaport Rather than make a negative comparison, I'm gonna make a positive instead. THIS is what cops are trained to do. We need more cops with PATIENCE to deescalste situations. Not trigger happy and immoral behavior cops. We can change this.

@RexChapman There wasn't even anything to deescalate. In the store video he's seated along the wall, cuffed, most of the time. Never was a threat. It's murder.

@RexChapman Despite this white mans mental stability at this time whether he was inebriated or not. He posed a threat wielding a weapon and making verbal threats to the officers. Whereas what we know from the video shown Mr. Floyd was not in any way posing a threat.

This is important. I recall @sheriffforte talking about maintaining distance instead of engaging. Deescalate. It's not a feat of strength or a bar fight. And for the safety of all involved a bit of patience and dialing down the emotion is the skilled approach. https://t.co/gUbIfBkgcV

@RexChapman If you want to teach me how to hit the 15 foot jumper more consistently, i’ll listen. But to say the man with the knife was not shot because of his skin color, is absurd. You have no training, nor do you have a clue on Policing. The cop showed great restraint. Not about race.

@RexChapman Rex - don't group people - don't say "Police" - this is one instance where one man who is a police officer de-escalated one situation a specific way. Not fair to everyone else. Same way with the people who mis-treated George Floyd - they don't represent all law enforcement

@RexChapman I feel people are misinterpreting this. Some argue “it’s a different cop, the one in MIN was one person, a bad apple”. I ask, how many bad apples must we see before we realize it’s a rotten tree? This issue is systemic, bad apples are far too common and there’s a reason for it.

@RexChapman I know this is a bad situation, but it can't compare these. The question is would the officer in this video kill the man in Minnesota by kneeling on his neck? And would the cop in Minnesota let the hatchet guy live? I don't think so. We know there are lines to be drawn though.
