[Kirk Freeman]

Where's the pure grain alcohol?

You know good darn well where it is--in the political section of INGO where it is used liberally.

Stop trying to sap and impurify our precious bodily fluids, you vodka drinker.

Out of several forums, this is the only one I have seen where people are hung up on semantics and implying that the arm around the throat was not a "real" choke hold.

Well then - there you go.

Out of several forums, this is the only one that knows what a "real" choke hold is.





I actually do know what a choke hold is.
And if that cop was attempting to do it, he did it wrong.

And yet...he still managed to kill the victim.

Yup and the choke hold had nothing to do with it, however, a headline reading "Cop kills man by positional asphyxia...news at 11." isn't as sexy or attention grabbing. The officers that were sitting on his back and/or allowed him to stay in that position after he was handcuffed are responsible for this death.

Not many here know what it is or what it really feels like when it is applied.

Bad Boy for.selling cigarettes. The crime of that magnitude is punishable by death without the need for trial.

Yeah, because putting a guy that size flat on the ground is any better. [/purple]

Regardless they should face manslaughter charges.

Par for the course. You record the po po for doing wrong, we'll find something to arrest you for as a means of harrassment.

Exactly, lucky those undercover cops just happened to see him.

Did I read correctly the cause of death was ruled a homicide?

Yep.

Also no one smoked cigarettes without police permission that day.

I'll hold my breath until those cops are charged in his death. Their arrests should be almost any moment now.

Not all homicide is a criminal offense. Self defense leading to the death of the attacker is homicide, but not chargeable. I'm not saying that what the officers did was justifiable, just pointing out that not all homicides are criminal. All homicide means is that the death was caused by human action.

There will be no indictment of Eric Garners killer. Once again a killer gets off Scot free.

Is there somewhere I could get a summary of the GJ evidence....not an advocacy site.
