Unhappy How would the police know about the past when first confronting George Floyd?

How would these officers know about any past experiences when initially confronting George Floyd? But the real key to this comment concerns restraint techniques. If having multiple officers kneeling on a suspect with one keeping his full weight on the neck for nine minutes isn't excessive I'd sure like to hear what it would have to be in order to be classified as excessive.
