I would characterize it more as not cooperating, as opposed to resisting
arrest. I haven't seem him being physical, just argumentative.

Well, duh. That is the whole problem, what the police did at the end.
From all I've seen so far, nothing he did justified the extreme step
Chauvin took and continued for 9 mins, including after Floyd had lost
consciousness.
I do agree that it's clearly lib media bias with them not reporting all the
facts, including that Floyd was not cooperating and had a high level of
fentanyl in his system, plus meth and pot. Another example of lib media
bias, NBC showed this latest video, pointing out that one officer had his
gun out as they were getting Floyd out of his vehicle, as if that showed
some bad intent or bias. They were on a call for Floyd passing counterfeit
money, that's a FELONY. They had to approach him in his car, it's a felony
stop at that point. NBC can't be so stupid that they don't know how a
felony stop is handled. Typically cops have their guns trained on the
subjects, ordering them out of the car, to lie face down in the street, etc.
Nothing the cops did up until the end was out of line. And if the lib media
wants to save black lives, they should be sending the message that Floyd
was wrong here too, that he should have complied, that you should not escalate
an arrest into a volatile, toxic situation, because then it's more likely
something bad is going to happen.
