The stress of the fight he started triggered a fatal heart attack. His death was entirely his own fault.

Entirely? At some point he was restrained, but struggling because he couldn’t breathe. The police should have recognized that.

For Garner, yeah it was entirely his fault. He started by announcing he wasn’t going allow arrest, and kept resisting even after being taken down.

Yes, he kept *saying* he couldn’t breathe. He kept speaking. He died while being fully able to breathe on the ambulance, because he had a heart attack from the exertion and stress.
