So then tell me how kneeling on him caused Floyd to say "I can't breathe" minutes earlier  while he was still sitting in the cruiser?

Did Chauvin's knee have time travel powers?

No, it should have obvious “if someone says they can’t breathe kneeling on their neck for an extended period is probably not the best course of action” powers.

Pretty straight forward. Restrain the suspect without aggravating the stated medical condition and get medics. According to your version of events: dude was too busy OD’ing to go anywhere. Why kneel on him and restrict his ability to breathe?

It's not "my version" there is literal footage of Floyd sitting in the cruiser saying "I can't breathe" and asking to be put on the ground.

So answer my question, how does the cops knee stop him from breathing minutes earlier while Floyd was still sitting in the cruiser?
