They’re authorized to use necessary violence; kneeling on a handcuffed man’s neck was not a justifiable application of force. I genuinely cant believe I have to explain that.

Yes, that’s why I’m focusing on the word “accessory”. Don’t move the goal posts.

You tried to change the standard to “all the officers didn’t kneel on his neck”, I just called you out on it.

I do believe they should be arrested for accessory and face a trial by jury. It’s your right to think to the contrary, but your rationalizations about why they were willing to stand by and watch something that has deeply shocked the conscious of the whole nation is both disturbing and unconvincing.

“I don’t know why they were willing to do that”.

That’s why we have trials by jury, to determine guilt even though we can’t read minds.
