Tasers kill more people resisting arrest than submission holds do.
At least I recall several deaths in NYC from tasers. I don't for submission holds.
Tasering Garner certainly would have been risky given his health.
Same result though, and we wouldn't be having this discussion either had the cop(s) used a taser.
Tasers kill more people resisting arrest than submission holds do.
No argument there, but I will bet you anything that there are a lot of cops tonight re- thinking their options in a capture scenario, just for their own protection.
