Here's a security camera footage showing the events leading up to Floyd's murder.



As per footage, Floyd is arrested and handcuffed after being pulled out of his car. He is then walked to the other petrol car.


Now watch the video below by NYT, detailing the events a bit further. **You need to be signed in to YT as the footage is deemed too graphic.**

The report says that Floyd stated to the cops that he was claustrophobic. He was then put in the back seat, where there is a bit of a push/shove in the back seat. There is no clear evidence of what accrued here to support either side. From what we can see on the available footage, it looks like there was a minor scuffle when the officer was pushing Floyds legs into the car. This is what you're referring to as "resisting arrest". The circumstances that leads you to believe he was being "unjustified"? The circumstances that lead to him being unjustifiably murdered??
The rest of the footage is more confronting, and has been widely shown.

This doesn't apply to the police? Simple really.
Without a shadow of a doubt, the police officers (specially the one with his knee on Floyds neck), were too aggressive here. Well and truly had crossed the line.
