The question nobody asks: "Why did Chauvin murder Floyd?"

Most Americans assume the answer is: "Because he's a racist cop and he thinks he's going to get away with it." But that's a remarkably simplistic assumption. Chauvin knew he was being filmed. He knew the police chief of Minneapolis was black and he knew he was putting (at the very least!) his job on the line by kneeling on a man's neck for almost 9 minutes. Think about that. I get impatient waiting for the bus after nine minutes!

The fact is, Chauvin and Floyd knew each other. They both worked security at the same nightclub, El Nuevo Rodeo. Assuming this whole thing wasn't staged like the Jussie Smollett fiasco, both the press and the police should be investigating what Chauvin's motive might have been to deliberately, with intent, murder George Floyd. But nobody's asking that question. They are doing everything they can to advance the idea that this is all about race. Obviously something else is involved.

But that doesn't fit the narrative, does it? :/
