The Floyd case happened after months of people being locked in their homes, unable to lead active and healthy social lives. While not as bad as solitary confinement, 2020 has been a psychologically grueling year. Floyd's death was the spark that set off a powder keg.
Remember, too, that the immediate aftermath was truly widespread horror. Everyone agreed that it was terrible. My recollection is that is the protests against police in general grew harsher, other folks started to accentuate the fact that Floyd was not a perfect man. And then everyone lost control of their collective sanity.
