I asked you specifically how Chauvin was "attempting" to subdue him when he was ALREADY subdued - handcuffed on the ground.
You responded by going backward in time to when he was trying to jump out of the police car. I did not ask you about when Floyd was still on his feet. Chauvin wasn't kneeling on his neck when he was in the squad car. Just like he wasn't kneeling on Floyd's neck when Floyd was having breakfast that morning.
Try answering the question. How was Chauvin "attempting" to subdue a man who was ALREADY subdued? He was handcuffed behind his back and was face down on the ground. Why was it necessary to kneel on his neck for several minutes AT THAT POINT IN TIME - and NO OTHER.
Also, there is no excuse for kneeling on a man's neck because he is screaming or acting erratic. If he is handcuffed and face down on the ground - LET HIM SCREAM. LET HIM BABBLE ERRATICALLY. Who cares? He is no threat in that position with 4 cops standing around him.

Do you not realize how utterly ridiculous that argument is?
ALL of that happened AFTER George Floyd was dead.
You can't go backwards in time and erase police brutality just because a bunch of anarchists rioted AFTER THE FACT.
And it is equally irrelevant that the same riots may not have occurred if George Floyd was white. If the rioters were less concerned about that type of police brutality, it doesn't change the fact that it WAS police brutality.

You're an idiot if you believe that it was not police brutality. It was textbook police brutality. What else would you call kneeling on a man's neck for no good reason?
