Death of Eric Garner Ruled a HOMICIDE by Medical Examiner (NYPD chokehold case)

[beastmodemike]

I'm surprised this hasn't been discussed in here already..

If you haven't seen the video yet:



Notice that as soon the officer brings Garner to the ground his hand is outstretched in an compliant, non-resistant manner. He says "I can't breath" at least 10 times while being choked and sat on with no acknowledgement of his desperate pleas. To me it's pretty simple- if you are choking somebody who is telling you that they can't breathe, don't be surprised if you choke them to death.

The medical examiner said compression of the neck and chest, along with Garner's positioning on the ground while being restrained by police during the July 17 stop on Staten Island, caused his death.

I know that any defenders of the NYPD's actions will probably harp on the fact that the coroner also noted that Garner's obesity, high blood pressure and asthma may have been contributing factors; while this is true, it is not an excuse for continually choking and sitting on somebody who is verbally making it clear that they cannot breathe.

All this being said, I do not think that the cop intended to murder this guy, but he pushed the envelope by using an illegal tactic and by not heeding the pleas of a non-resistant man that he was suffocating. I think at the very leas this warrants a second degree manslaughter charge, also known as "involuntary manslaughter" (carries a sentence of 3-15 years). However, I really have lost all faith in the system and I don't think this will be the case.

NYPD are the biggest gang in new york.

[IndianMan]

good that they arrested the guys.

[Iakabos]

Those disgusting pieces of **** murdered that man. If they didn't have a gun to shoot me with i would have gladly smacked a few of them in the face while they are all sitting on him.

Why don't you feel bad for all the people getting unnecessarily abused and killed by cops instead? Good and bad cops are 50/50. Every time I've encountered a cop they are either an ******* or nice.

[Punisheeps]

good, hope justice is served and they lock that pig up.

[Nocturne808]

fuark why is the law enforcement system in America set up to protect cops and let them abuse their power?

brb do chit like this and just get suspended. The legal system covers for them. Damn man things have to change.

While I agree with Jibt3ch that good cops get a bad rap from the bad ones, these days it just seems like there are way too many documented cases of abuse.

[Jibt3ch]

Maybe American cops are different idk but everytime I had to deal with cops in Canada they all seemed pretty good. Maybe if I wasn't a white guy in Canada it would be different.

Also the reason we all see so much now is because every person in USA has a cellphone with a camera.

Really sad vid, was no need to choke him like that. Also really sad that people like Al "Sharkton" are using this man's death as another vehicle to divide people and put money in his own pockets.

[TheMachina]

Its only 95% that make the rest look bad

Yep, but he's actually a necessary evil. I disagree with a lot of the cases he jumps on and know that he doesn't have pure intentions, but without people like him, a lot of incidents like this would never receive the amount of media coverage and national attention that they do.

[ChainsofAlice]

I find it funny how these pigs will do these things to ordinary citizens but they would never dream of doing it to the real criminals out there like drug dealers and other scum. Must feel real nice to kill people who they know can't defend themselves.

[wheyman12]

The others are just as bad bc they will stand behind the pos officers.

The only good cops are the ones that stand up against them...but they will get blackballed out by the bad cops and so called "good" cops.



Hope they make bacon from this *******

^be careful....

[irishstomp]

Of course it was a homicide, ridiculous that anyone would even attempt to argue otherwise.

[TheBannedBrah]

^be careful....

Can I actually be banned/negged for saying that? Don't understand why, it was true.

[RoccRio]
