So, do you think the cops should let everyone who resists or becomes combative go? I don’t.

This guy resisted arrest. He had a heart attack in the process. It happens. The choke did not cause his death.

I have already said, and will say again, this is what happens when you live in a socialist state like New York. I am not here to talk about socialist laws in socialist states. That is what America is turning into. They voted for it, Garner, if he voted, likely voted for every liberal democrat ever spawned.

That’s why they have, as you say, a brokeass city. I live in a democrat brokeass city. I know what it’s like though I did not vote liberal. I see it here every day.

I don’t give a rats what the crime was, if they had enough to arrest him he should have complied and had his day in court. Afterward he could have filed a lawsuit. He contributed to his own death.

Where I work you are allowed to put your arm around someones neck to control them. Rendering them unconscious is now at the deadly force level. That’s because of stories like this, ‘Choke hold kills man.’ The media has been telling that lie for years because it involves minorities.

i'm not even talking about killing the guy and never brought it up, i'm saying that for 50cents in taxes, they prolly never should have bothered with him i the first place knowing it will cost the city $XXXXX to prosecute a 50cent violation

like i said, they don't prosecute pot because of the cost to benefit ratio so a little discretion should have been in order here

i'll ask again, do YOU think it's a wise use of city funds and resources when the city is damn near insolvent??? or is it even remotely possible the cop was out of line and should have left him alone???
