The man was being arrested for his crime including carrying this weapon, that's not really up for debate.
The debate is whether the police officer used appropriate measures to bring the man under control. He didn't, therefore he's been suspended.
The police are not infallible.

The main point is not a result of why the police acted in the way they did. The main point is WHY he was carrying the knife... its literally that simple.
Again, maybe the policeman could have acted in a
more appropriate way but his priority was catching/holding the suspect down whilst knowing he was a threat to the public. He undoubtedly did the right thing here.
You can tell from the video that he was not even using any force on his neck for more than a few seconds, but of course people are going to play on that **** after the George Floyd case. It's not shocking in the slightest.

Yeah, if only the public did too eh? Then a thread like this, or the action from the police would not even be necessary.
