That further confirms that his behavior was resistive, not assaultive.

Funny, you couldn’t see his halo in that clip.

As I said from the start, what the officer did, leaning his knee on his neck, was a last resort to hold him down, after failed efforts to get him in the back seat due to vigorous resistance. They didn't have the option of just letting him go. This was all Floyd's doing. He's responsible for his own death.

Kinda destroys the narrative......"he was cuffed, why not just put him in the squad car?".

There's no reason to suggest he intended to cause permanent harm, let alone death. He employed a control tactic after multiple failed efforts to secure him in the squad car. They were waiting for someone to come, either EMS, a larger vehicle that would be easier to force him into, or both, and he needed to be kept from running off till that arrived. They had been exhausted in their efforts to get him in the car, and couldn't keep fighting with him. The alternative to what he did was to let him run off. Cops aren't superhuman, and cannot continue to struggle with a huge, powerful, guy like that, ramped up with drugs as he was, indefinitely.

[ The alternative to what he did was to let him run off. Not sure about the LEOs there, but in many places they have "zip tie" restraints in their vehicles (some on their person??). I mentioned it in a post last week or so...............why not "hog tie" him. Couple of those restraints around his ankles, and guess what...................no running off. and no need to kneel on a neck. 4 officers there, one big fella. Tie his ass up like a steer and be done with it until help arrives. Of course, maybe our 'fire LEOs can chime in, for all I know some court somewhere has determined restraining a suspect's ankles is now against the law.

Maybe it would help if they weren't stuck using a soccermommobile for police work. It's hard enough to get in the back of those kiddie cars when you intend to.
Everyone knows that when you want to abduct somebody, you bring a van. Duh.

Isn't a person's threat to an officer something courts consider when determining the legality of the officer's use of force?
