Garner did not die from some mythical choke hold. When in a choke hold you are unable to speak.

There was nothing mythical about it. The choke hold need not completely cut off all breathing/speaking. For a guy with his issues cutting off even 20% of oxygen might be fatal.

Posting a picture of a cop using a chokehold won’t deter those who are bound and determined to deny that the same cop was using a chokehold in that picture. The most recent invention of these people is to call the chokehold a ‘seat belt manuever’ and if you search Google prior to last week you’ll see that this is just an invention of these jack boot lickers.

I’m not saying Garner was an upstanding citizen or that he didn’t have a criminal record. I’m saying that selling untaxed cigarettes doesn’t rate a summary execution on a sidewalk.
