It’s not that the cop caused the heart attack that people are upset about, it’s that she laughed at him and drove away without calling an ambulance or offering him a ride to the ER.
It’s entirely possible to wield AUTHORIT-EYE without being a jerk. There are good folks out there who do it every day. ;)
You're right. A person with a heart condition having a heart attack during an arrest is one thing. Her indifference is really what I find offensive. Her attitude, while perhaps not a crime, makes me want them all held accountable for the whole thing. Without her snide remark and lack of assistance I'd probably give the cops a pass on this and chalk it up to simply being unfortunate.

Actually it’s the attack that caused the heart attack that I am upset about. No one really expects anyone in New York City to be anything but rude do they?
