Obviously, hard if not impossible to do this when someone is denying oxygen to your brain, but if Floyd had said: “officers, I am unarmed and I am going to die, and when that happens your careers and lives will be ruined” the knee comes up.

I'm taking some heat for writing this. What I'm trying to say is: appeal to self-interest, not logic when you're trying to persuade someone. https://www.forbes.com/sites/bryancollinseurope/2018/10/11/warren-buffetts-right-hand-man-charlie-munger-on-avoiding-painful-failures/#4f5b7c08510e …pic.twitter.com/CMjfwgLp1V

I am not equating murder/homicide/manslaughter (whatever this is - to be clear I think the guy should be charged with all 3) with some bullshit financial issue. I'm just trying to teach people something that they clearly do not understand.

As unpleasant as it is, I am fine with being misconstrued.
