The comparison is the unfair actions by the police. Yes, its good to wait for the investigation, but I think it deserves more than just a SIU investigation. The indigenous woman Chantel Moore died during a wellness check over 2 weeks ago, and there are also calls for bigger national level independent investigation about her death because nothing else is being done.

I only mentioned Floyd death because no one seems to want to do major protests when it comes to how mental health patients are treated in Canada.

Edit: They definitely went in guns blazing. There is a video of it. And besides, during wellness checks, there is a separate department that handles it, the police has no place to even be there.
