It is irrelevant. The only relevant thing is the method of Floyds arrest.
Your Gaols are overflowing in the USA. You also have a system that legalises Execution. What are you going to do? Especially in a nation that 'arms' its citizens by an archaic Law. Many Australian cops do stints in the USA for educational reasons and they all admit it is a far more dangerous place there because the Criminals run riot under the 'Freedom Act'.
Here, the Criminal activity is controlled. It's a minority, not a majority.
What are you going to do? Send your Criminals here via 6 months on a leaky boat? You would be justifying British involvement here in Australia.
So the police officer used a submission technique used often by many. Maybe he just wasn't educated enough to know when to release?
In a nation that issues EXECUTION, I find it hard to believe this is anything out of the ordinary. It's the nature of the beast and you didn't see Australians (in the USA) take to the streets or Americans (even Black) come out on the streets... and she wasn't even a known criminal.
Two wrongs don't make a right.
