No. 
 

But I’ve wondered if there could have been previous animosity between the two of them. 
 

I’ve also wondered IF they actually knew each other, that Chauvin could have been acting that way out of frustration/disappointment over Mr Floyd’s apparent drugged state that day. 
 

I’ve also wondered if Chauvin had seen how dangerous of a person that Floyd was from his time bouncing at da club and knew that he didn’t want to have to fight with him if he let him up. 
 

There’s just no way to know.

Fight with him 3 minutes after he was unconscious... in handcuffs... with at least 4 other cops with him?

I think you mistook what I said. I’m not trying to justify anything. I don’t think that cop put on his gear that day with the express purpose of killing anybody, much less somebody he probably knew. 
 

I’m just curious as to what got him to a place where he’s committing textbook police brutality.  it’s a rhetorical question for which there will be no answer. 
 

It doesn’t fix anything and it definitely doesn’t excuse anything. You don’t have to keep throwing facts at me. I’m already aware of what happened out there.

It’s only speculation on Watters part.   A realistic possibility.  One, imo should be looked into.   Perhaps the Officer was paid to ignore drugs in the club, and Floyd knew it?   To not investigate it would be a travesty of justice.

So maybe there’s something very possible I don’t know. When the store owner called the cops on Floyd, did he tell the dispatch, “Oh by the way, let officer Chauvin know it’s Floyd. Here’s his chance...” , or was it just by chance?... Nope, Watters is right, musta been planned for sure. How in HELL do you suppose that could have played out??? Seriously?

Why is George Floyd being made out to be a saint/martyr?  Yes, he was murdered by a rogue cop that should be put in prison.  But people, George Floyd was a career criminal.  Did he really deserve a nationally televised funeral and horse drawn carriage?  I would argue that retired police officer Dorn, that was killed by people looting in Floyd’s honor, was more deserving.  I guess our society has come to be that criminals are more honored than police officers.

Not saying I don’t understand your feelings, nor am I saying that Floyd deserved anymore or any less honor than he received.
But the Bible tells us none of those men deserved anything! After Job learned that his livestock of various types, his servants, his properties even his children were killed or destroyed, Job had this to say:

Job1:20-1:22

This is the hidden content, please
Then Job arose, and rent his mantle, and shaved his head, and fell down upon the ground, and worshipped, 
This is the hidden content, please
And said, Naked came I out of my mother's womb, and naked shall I return thither: the LORD gave, and the LORD hath taken away; blessed be the name of the LORD. 
This is the hidden content, please
In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly.

What we have we don’t deserve including life. It is ALL a gift from God.

      I don’t benefit from it, that’s not my area.  But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway.  These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but I’m sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So what’s the point?  We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime?  And I don’t know I can say we have “complicated” it. Which appeal should we cut out?  Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck?  Or do we not pay for an indigent person’s experts at the trial court level because it’s too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they weren’t actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we haven’t unjustly ended) and save a ton of money?  Seems to me to be an easy and obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.

      JoeBama Administration Gives NGOs Millions To Facilitate Immigration Invasion!

      By Reagan · Posted

      @CIS_org National Security Senior Fellow @BensmanTodd tells Steve Bannon how the U.S. State Department and USAID have been sending American taxpayer funds to religious nonprofits to facilitate mass immigration to our southern border. Bensman says 248 nonprofits are participating in the United Nations’ 2024 agenda to distribute $1.6 billion in cash, transportation, food, and shelter to U.S.-bound immigrants across Mexico and Latin America.
