Wow. way to title an article CNN

It's intentionally trying to blame the drugs he took for his death rather than how the officers treated him. There is no reason to bring it up otherwise. This is a man who begged them to let up because he couldn't breath, and they kept pressure on him until he died, and then continued to keep pressure on his body while he was dead. If somebody is telling you repeatedly that what you're doing is killing them, and you ignore it and keep doing it the whole time, it doesn't matter what drugs he had in his system you're a fucking murderer. The autopsy report even lists his death as a homicide, caused by the police officers.

It's increasingly common to see people bring up him being on drugs to justify his murder. That's the only time anybody brings up his toxicology report. Trying to pretend that there is another reason for somebody to have done this is a juvenile. The fact that it was on a Black History display just makes having to explain this even more absurd. There is no benefit of the doubt in this case for the intentions of the poster.
