When this first happened there was a slightly longer tape than what most media outlets were showing that showed some footage of Floyd struggling against the officers trying to get him into the car.
That alone to me suggested that he was resisting. And now seeing the full footage where the officers try to reason with him and get him to comply for 10 minutes is vindicating. As I've maintained from day one, had he just complied and got in the car, he'd likely still be alive (on his way to prison again, but alive).
I hope more people watch this and realise they've been hoodwinked (again), but I'm too cynical to believe that'll be the case.
From what I understand the officers followed MPD protocol, even the the holding him to the ground and for the length of time he was held. The entire situation is a complete farce and it blew up because out of context cell phone footage and "eye witness accounts" were taken as gospel truth. People wanted something like this to happen just for an excuse to riot and destroy this country.
