Multiple videos and eyewitnesses all agree that Floyd was not resisting arrest.

Sorry that you are blind but https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1CjE7J4ig_4 and https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Fpivi5ljhI and yet another https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kiSm0Nuqomg of Floyd resisting arrest. Again sorry for your being either blind or you have shit for brains.

Thanks for that. I knew American cops were incompetent, but those videos really make it obvious just how incompetent they are.

That's three videos of somebody not resisting arrest while thuggish bully-boys lie and deliberately escalate the situation. It's obvious that the cops there don't give a shit about the most effective way to keep the peace, or even about making the arrest. They're only interested in one thing: they have to win.

It's not about the law, or justice, or keeping the public safe, or public order. It is 100% "you can't win" (their quote) and they will commit murder to make sure they're the winner.

Even down to little things like ordering Floyd to "sit all the way down" when he was already sitting down. How fucking petty do you have to be to do that?

At one point, the cop yanks his handcuffed arms to his side, Floyd calls out in pain, and the cop goes "You can reach your side, that's making me nervous". What a fucker.

Stop simping for the cops. Don't think for one second they'll treat you better because you're white. They'll treat you like Timpa, or Shaver, or worse, because they know that the media doesn't give a shit about the white people they kill. And they kill plenty. Most victims of police brutality are white.
