   It would have very easy for the cop to have given Floyd a warrant to   
   appear in court instead of cuffing him under gunpoint.   
      
    AT> Guilty until bail is posted - that's the way it's always been. Not   
    AT> just for  blacks either!   
       
   That has never been the way it has always been.  It is innocent until   
   proven guilty in a court of law.   
      
    DS> It is believable that having a gun pushed in your face would cause most   
    DS> people to "flip out".   
      
    AT> Believable by who? Anderson Cooper? Brooke Baldwin? I've had guns   
    AT> pointed to  my head before - even by police. Flipping out is a stupid   
    AT> move. I didn't flip  out and I survived to tell my story.   
      
   Every person is different.   
      
    AT> Do you want our cops to stop carrying guns? To stop using them? What   
    AT> good will they be without guns?   
      
   The British do pretty well without carrying guns.   
      
    AT> Do convenience store clerks flip out   
    AT> when they get guns  pointed to their heads?    
      
   Sometimes they do, sometimes they yield to their training of go ahead   
   and let the guy have the money.
