Perry is a hero for stopping a lunatic, but the racists are drooling and rabid and I'm waiting for Al Sharpton to incite a riot.

What a travesty of justice. Penny was doing a service to humanity and protecting people in a proper fashion.

Similarly, Daniel Perry in Austin was tried and convicted for DEFENDING HIMSELF AGAINST AN ARMED ASSAILANT.

“placing an erratic and aggressive subway passenger in a chokehold”

erratic and aggressive doesn’t even come close.....IIRC he was threatening to kill people was he not?

[Tell It Right]

From the article: Dozens of Neely supporters arrived before the start of the hearing wearing "Malcom X" hats outside the Manhattan courthouse...

Someone with sense should have a sign with this Malcolm X quote:

"The White liberal is the worst enemy to America and the worst enemy to the Black man."

Let me guess, any requests by defense for a change of venue will be promptly denied.

This may get interesting. In reading a few of the news releases on the incident they say that Neely didn’t harm anyone. Yes, he screamed and threatened, but inflicted no harm. Perry, who apparently was taught combatives with BJJ knew what to do to apply the rear naked choke but failed to cease the hold until long after he should have especially with the assistance of other passengers containing Neely. And it mentioned in a couple of the articles that other passengers were concerned with Neely’s health at the time of the extended application.

The hold Perry used can put a person into unconciousness in as little as 8 seconds. He held the lock for far more than that. So this is a question of neglegence since he did not release a hold he was taught in the military would be lethal if applied and not released timely.

Is he a murderer? No. Is he negligent for the way he did it? Yes. In New York, when negligent homicide is committed without a dangerous instrument or a deadly weapon, it is a non-dangerous felony. A conviction carries a prison sentence of between 1 year and 3 years and 9 months. So this is not some made up charge. It is textbook and has all the elements of the charge. He applied a lock that can kill, he failed to release it, and the man died. So he may be in for a problem.

Protesters accuse Marine vet of White supremacy

I must have missed when that law against white supremacy was passed.

[lurk]

The law is applied variously in different venues.

In this case it is NYC, the defendant is whyte and the victim is a POC.
