It was the vitriol surrounding the false narratives that played into the riots. And yes, I agree there were people there legitimately exercising their right to peacefully protest which was mired with others who took advantage of the situation by rioting and looting.
No, drug users aren't less humans, but it's looking like an OD on fentanyl is what killed Floyd so his vice was likely the leading reason for his death. So this will likely get filed under the "play stupid games, win stupid prizes" in my book.

New documents filed in the George Floyd case give new information about the Hennepin County Medical Examiner's findings in Floyd's autopsy.
Handwritten notes of a law enforcement interview with Dr. Andrew Baker, the Hennepin County Medical Examiner, say Floyd had 11 ng/mL of fentanyl in his system.
"If he were found dead at home alone and no other apparent causes, this could be acceptable to call an OD. Deaths have been certified with levels of 3," Baker told investigators.
In another new document, Baker said, "That is a fatal level of fentanyl under normal circumstances."
But then Baker added, "I am not saying this killed him."
Defense attorneys for the officers have signaled they will argue Floyd died from the drugs and pre-existing health conditions.
The new documents say Floyd had a "heavy heart" and "at least one artery was approximately 75% blocked."
So a fatal dose of fentanyl in his system but it didn't kill him. Ok, run with that one if you want.
