I agree. However excessive force does not necessarily equal murder.

The person most responsible for his death received immunity from prosecution because of her skin color.

The delicious irony of the St. Garner incident is this:

The Nanny State’s liberal tax policies created a ridiculous law, which, combined with the criminal and obesity nature of St. Garner, caused his ultimate demise.

Blaming cops for his death is like blaming good tires for a high-speed crash.

Something to ponder, with many incidences shooting right to the front pages of the propagandist media I am leaning toward a possible try to federalize all local police units under the control of the feds. a national police force just as strong and well equiped as our military, not my statement but the a##clowns several months back, remember? Brown shirts hear we come!

If a suspect refuses arrest what’s the police supposed to do let them go?

This is one time I think the Fed. should actually file criminal rights charges against the cop.

Amash was elected to represent his district not be moral monitor of the universe. He ought shut up about that which is none of his business.

Has he yet had an up close look at excessive force first hand? If you ain’t felt it, you ain’t an expert. So, sit down and shut up. (not you Bettyprob)

They did use excessive force but that wasn’t what was up before the grand jury.

These armchair law enforcement officers have no clue.

So, are most cop dog shootings excessive?

Excessive force for someone as large as Garner resisting arrest is anything more than hands. That was not the case here.

When the officers outnumber a misdemeanor offender who is not armed, killing the offender in the course of the arrest is at the least negligence, which appears to be the case. Some states criminalize the negligent taking of a life-I don’t know about New York.

Interesting that Amash is commenting on this and an interesting thread.

As for transparency on his votes, Amash is OUTSTANDING.

Thanks for posting, Bettyprop.

Another cowardly conservative grabbing his Ferguson Moment sad but true. This jackass didnt hear a single word of testimony but he KNOWS all about what happened and the racist jury got it wrong really?
