“What I said was, and I’ll say it again, the guy did not die from strangulation or the choke hold. He died from a heart attack. Maybe the police should just stop making arrests on anybody who offers resistance in case they may have a heart attack.”

I guess we should be thankful the cop didn’t just shoot the guy right out of the box. I always thought the idea was to arrest someone and give them a fair trial. Any physical force applied was supposed to be in proportion to the immediate danger the suspect posed or as a response to escalating resistance on his part.
