What reason do the police give for arresting George Floyd to begin with? At that point they had heard he had passed a fake bill, which is not illegal.
Contrary to popular wisdom, passing a counterfeit bill isn't illegal. Not in itself, without conscious intent to defraud.
The Minneapolis police have never claimed that Floyd knew the bill was bogus, or that he had any history of passing fake bills.
So how have they justified the initial arrest, handcuffing, and manhandling? I haven't see that in the news coverage.
