Unfortunately race has become the central issue here. This was excessive force and should be criminally prosecuted regardless of whether the victim was black, white, brown or purple.
I agree with Krauthammer. Incomprehensible.
There have to be consequences. The fact that there isn’t proves they are above the law themselves. That’s dangerous. From what I have heard of this case an involuntary manslaughter verdict would have been applicable. IS there something we don’t know maybe? The man said he could not breathe, more than once. I don’t understand why they use such excessive force:(
And (keeping in mind a life was taken) we cannot forget that this all occurred because if a stupid CIGARETTE law. Such ridiculous laws have no place in a free society. It all comes down to tax $.
We ask the Police to enforce the Laws.
If the accused resists arrest, the Police can, and should, escalate force to apply the Law.
The guy was selling cigarettes and not charging State Tax.
The Police were enforcing a pissant Law so the State does not lose cigarette tax revenue.
A lot of these Progressive laws, designed to limit Liberty, should be struck from the books.
