Well...no...if you let go of your histrionics you would see that the man was being arrested for suspicion of a crime had been convicted of on numerous occasions in the past. Those crimes were several of the 30 he had previously been convicted of.
No, that is false.
How the hell would you even begin to pretend to know if there was evidence of what he was observed doing or not?Which there doesn't appear to be any evidence he was guilty of again. I guess being guilty of a crime in the past makes assault cool.
That is correct. If the law decides you are going to be arrested, you are going to be arrested. Resist...dont be a 'sheep'...and you will...well...you will have a shot at your frothy foamy rape fantasy that got you so worked up about. :lamo

im sure those other 30 arrests and convictions were all trumped up too.
Geeeeeez...the people you throw a saddle on....
Dont know...do you? He resisted arrest and died...remember? It didnt go to trial. What we DO know is that the officer observed what he determined to be criminal behavior (on charges similar to some of the 30 prior convictions he had).Did the officers even have probable cause to make an arrest?
Apparently the officer did.Do you have any evidence he was selling cigarettes?
And when/if it happens...make sure you get it on film.You do realize not being submissive includes actions beyond resisting arrest, right? It just so happens that those actions many times lead to being assaulted by a police officer. :lamo

Well then...the suspect REALLY ****ed up then, didnt he?No, he didn't.

Feel free to ask that question of law enforcement.So because he "resisted" (I use this term EXTREMELY loosely, based on the tape; his "resistance" endangered nobody and was token at worst), that renders the question of whether the attempted arrest was justified moot?
:lamoYou define resisting arrest in a really stupid way.
You can find Garner's criminal background reporting his 30 previous arrests with a google search and find a number of references.
Here is one reported by CBS-NY on Ramsey Orta.
Man Who Recorded Garner Arrest Pleads Not Guilty To Gun Charges « CBS New York
watched the video
read the reports
read many articles
read the coroner and medical reports
this should go to trial for sure
if innocents remains after the trial, fine but it not going to trial is an injustice IMO and VERY concerning
As did all of the other factors listed in the coroner's report. Absent those other factors then the brief use of force would not have been fatal.
I agree - it was an accident. I don't see the police trying to kill this guy purposefully - and that is why there are laws such as negligent homicide and various levels of manslaughter on the books for just such an event. I'm not looking to nail this cop - only give him his day in court and let a jury decide if he just did his job or if he did his job badly and aiding in the death of a suspect. Reasonable no?
I wonder why your question is ONLY about the reaction and contains no reference to the incident itself?
No. I am not saying that.
In the end, and it may be a long time coming, it won't be enough. No civilization that oppressed enough of its citizens has ever ended in anything but warfare and, ultimately, revolution.
Μολὼν λαβέ;1064051343 said:The cop who killed him could have at least taken his knee, using his complete body weight as leverage, off the man's head.
He wasn't selling contraband cigarettes at the time of the incident. He had numerous prior arrests/citations for that "crime," but that's not what he was doing when the cops confronted him at that moment.
Resisting arrest does not automatically justify lethal force.
