Here we go again - Video shows white police officer killing a black man in Minnesota by suffocation as the man pleads "I can't breathe"

If someone is telling you they can't breathe because your knee is on their neck, and you intentionally drive your knee even deeper into that person's neck, you have in fact chosen to intentionally kill a person.

Come on man. Is this really the hill you want to go out on?
People being arrested frequently complain. Only the cop with the knee on his neck would know how much pressure he is putting. How do you know he pressed down harder after he said he couldn't breathe? Also, the autopsy said he didn't die of asphyxiation, so he obviously could still breathe. That doesn't excuse the cop. I think he killed the man by being reckless, and had no justification to hold him down for so long, but it doesn't mean he meant to kill him. 3rd degree murder is the right charge.
