I have to agree. Without a doubt excessive force was used. I am not sure how they did not get an indictment. The only ting I can think of is that the prosecutor went all in for murder one and did not attempt a lesser charge.
At any rate if you live in NYC ammo up and board the windows its going to be one hell of a week.
I saw the video. It was pissing me off. If they were trying to cuff him- they should be fired for outrageous incompetence. There is no excuse for it taking that long. I couldn’t see much evidence of resisting. Especially once on the ground and unable to breath. They should have been able to get their sh!t done and get off of him in 15 seconds.
I get the impression that this is as different as night and day different from the event in Ferguson. Do you think that he Ferguson agitators are purposely stoking the flames in a case where they have no case at all? I guess if there was a legit issue, there would not be as much controversy.
By choosing the Ferguson case instead of the choking case, they can split the country between intelligent, rational, civilized Americans of every color and description on one side, and brainless violent animals on the other. This sounds like a much better path to maximum bloodshed and ultimately Marshal Law.
You have a point. I wonder what the choices were for the Grand Jury?
