//I hardly think that possessing ten forged bills instead of one justifies the excess force that led to Mr Floyd's death - do you? //
No I don't. I also don't believe that possession of one forged bill justifies arrest either. That is why I believe these two have a history.
Joining the sheep and baying for blood and revenge does not serve justice for anyone. Evidence and facts is all.

That makes the arresting officer's behaviour even less defensible!
As an officer of the law, he is required to treat everyone equally without fear or favour, not to use sufficient force on a suspect to kill him because 'they have history'.

And what exactly is your point? As a result of what I wrote ( That I suspect there was a history between these two) are you twisting those words to say I condone or defend Chauvins action? Nice spin A-H but I have made it quite clear that this death was avoidable for whatever reason and certainly not for passing a dud bill.
Possibly a sad consequence of officers allowed to moonlight with dubious characters who should not hold a security licence to be a bouncer. Who knows what went on between them privately. That does NOT mean I defend this death.

Having watched the video on YouTube that jackthehat put on, it's obvious that excessive force was used and the actions of that police officer led to the death of George Floyd either directly or indirectly. We don't know if there was a personal problem between these two, so we don't know if that officer purposely kept his knee on Floyds neck in the hope of causing serious damage or death, but that officer should definitely be charged for manslaughter at the very least.
