Exactly. It’s Florida and he’s indigenous. That’s the only explanation here. He did nothing wrong except struggle. There’s no indication he physically harmed any of them. The cop claimed he went for a knife, but the knife he had on him was a small pocket knife that couldn’t have hurt the cop much even if he was attacked with it. Unless he started tasering the cop back while handcuffed in the squad car, I’m pretty sure he wasn’t responsible.
This whole situation is bullshit for that kid, but that knife absolutely could harm or kill someone. It has a blade over 2", which is a smaller blade, but more than enough to kill. A box cutter is enough to kill someone and most of those have about an inch of exposure. You don’t need a Ka-bar to kill someone, multiple major arteries and plenty of veins are accessible with a 2" knife for most bodies.
