There was no justification for Derek Chauvin to use excessive force.
Derek Chaivin kept his knee on George Floyd’s neck until he was effectively dead
just because George Floyd was not a nice man does not mean a policeman has the right to use a level of force which killed him.
Derek Chauvin was deliberately using excessive force, he knew George Floyd was struggling to breathe, bystanders were so concerned they were pleading with him to take his knee off.

He was doing what he was trained to do in order to take no chances with a man twice the size of himself who was known to be a violent person.
You are right, he was a disgusting violent man, look at the awful things he has done:
1) After his release in 2013 Floyd became more involved with Resurrection Houston, a Christian church and ministry, where he mentored young men and posted anti-violence videos to social media
2) He delivered meals to senior citizens and volunteered with other projects, such as the Angel By Nature Foundation, a charity founded by rapper Trae tha Truth
3) Later, Floyd became involved with a ministry that brought men from the Third Ward to Minnesota in a church-work program with drug rehabilitation and job placement services
4) In 2014, Floyd moved to Minneapolis to help rebuild his life and find work.[45][46] Soon after his arrival, he completed a 90-day rehabilitation program at the Turning Point program in north Minneapolis. Floyd expressed the need for a job and took up security work at Harbor Light Center, a Salvation Army homeless shelter
5) In a video addressing the youth in his neighborhood, Floyd reminds his audience that he has his own "shortcomings" and "flaws" and that he is not better than anyone else, but also expresses his disdain for the violence that was taking place in the community, and advises his neighbors to put down their weapons and remember that they are loved by him and God
It seems George Floyd became a decent person since leaving jail in 2013, but still suffered periods of drug addiction.
He doesn’t seem to have been violent in recent years

Either, police have the right to kill as they want, or they don't.
Bod, you claim he was “known to be a violent man”
Do you have any evidence of this?
I can find no evidence of him beating people up, fighting, injuring people or any other violence apart from his involvement in a crime 13 years earlier
We know he was arrested for a robbery that happened in 2007, he was identified using a line up technique no longer accepted by Houston police standards. Apparently the only positive identification was by a 7 year old boy.
Allegedly one of the victims was pregnant, although there is no actual evidence that was true at the time
It looks like George Floyd agreed to a plea bargain and so pleaded guilty - so there was no court case and no jury decided whether he was actually guilty.
Some sources I used:
Background Check: Investigating George Floyd’s Criminal Record
The question of past arrests often surfaces among people who want to rationalize police officers' actions when Black men are killed in custody.

The weaponization of medical language emboldened white supremacy with the authority of the white coat. How will we stop it from happening again?

There's a fella known about the town since he was school age. Because his reputation as a fighter. Boxing was his sport. He has now found God works for charities at the age of nearly 60.
Non of this undoes the jaws he broke, the mental health problems he left people with after a beating. The one that had to leave town the stays in hospitals.
Non of it. Those who know him know he's still a nasty dangerous man.

You ask me to supplie you with evidence thst George was a violent man.
You then produce the evidence for me.
That was easy

So the police should kneel on his neck until he's dead then ?
There's all sorts of people in this world, some need locking away.
But that's for courts to decide, not the police.
Once you allow police to kill without sufficient reason (self defence or protection of others) you are on the slippery slope
