Eric Garner is a victim of the Prog Policy of Turning Everyone Into Criminals via enormous quantities of laws (some of which actually contradict each other) that nobody could possibly fully understand. When everyone is a criminal, the population is so much easier to control.

Prog policies? When did Progressives get so powerful and cons so powerless? I mean sheesh...is there nothing that happens that isnt the fault of progressive policies? I think you are using progressive in the literal sense and not political
Over some damn cigarettes. An innocent man is dead. There has to be accountability. I can't blame people for being angry. Their anger is justified.

It sucks the guy died.
But I can apply your "Over some damn cigarettes" statement to the deceased.
He wanted to throw down with the police "Over some damn cigarettes"?
I dont understand the propensity blacks have for resisting arrest for minor offenses,it makes no damn sense.
When all this crap started I was on the fat guys side. But after thinking about it and putting myself in the black guys shoes? Not anymore...I wouldnt have been illegally selling cigs on the street and I would have complied immediately and put my hands behind my back.
He should have been at least charged with manslaughter since the chokehold is against NYPD rules.Que sera sera. It was unfortunate but the guy should have obeyed the police and let himself be cuffed. But go ahead and take up for the lawbreakers.You be one of them chipmunks that put words in others mouths. I didn't say he had to die. He would be alive today if he had followed the rules.
Poor woman had to watch and plead with the bastards to release him. She watched her husband slowly murdered. This isn't justice. Anyone who claims it is, is far too gone to reason with.
He didn't deserve a death sentence. The Cop should have been held accountable. He murdered an innocent man right in front of his wife. She begged him to release him. This is not justice.
The cop had no way of knowing this guy was already on borrowed time.
The fat guy knew it full and well that he was in no condition for combat,yet he chose to resist.
Did the cop over react? Maybe,but I dont believe he intended to kill the guy and thats what the GJ looks at.
I wouldnt have been opposed to some form of punishment but that would be circumventing the law,because the fact remains...it was an accident.
And the guy didn't resist arrest. He simply asked the cops to quit harassing him.
I had no idea the Dems were the party of big govtBut I do remember they created the Dept of Homeland security. Memba that?
Fool this is about the Police not about left or right. Its even silly to suggest this is about loose cigs. Oh yeah I forgot, rumor is this went down for loose cigs from the guys who choked the guy to death.
Seems reasonable![]()
You be one of them chipmunks that put words in others mouths. I didn't say he had to die. He would be alive today if he had followed the rules.Yes we know, he deserved to die. You Big Brother-Worshippers never disappoint. How sad.

He didn't die on the street he dies hours after.
And if he could say <" I can't breathe" he was not being choked. It is impossible to speak if you are being strangled.
lol, so the cop with his arm around his neck was doing so in such a gentle manner that he wasn't choking him?
Goddam you people never give up, do you?
Have you ever been in a choke hold?
I have. If he could say "I can't breathe" then he was NOT in a choke hold. At that point it was not much more than a head lock.
Why don't you learn a little bit about physiology and martial arts so you don't seem like a stupid sheep?
Didn't Hannity get his start in NYC defending the cops who sodomized that black man with a plunger handle?Chokeholds are against NYPD policy. So at the very least this asshole cop should be fired and stripped of his pension.People with heart conditions can have a heart attack just from getting really upset. The typical chokehold doesn't kill anyone. I've seen people crying and yelling for police to let go of their spouses and not because they are being hurt, but because they don't want them arrested.
It's sad that the guy died, but the cop was merely subduing a suspect that fought. How was he supposed to know the guy's heart was a ticking time bomb? When you resist, cops will do what they need to take you down.
Hindsight is always 20/20, but you have to put yourself in the cop's place at the time. Taking down a suspect who is fighting you isn't something that is done gently. Little hard when you are literally fighting with the person to get them to stop and sit still. Had the guy cooperated, it might have been different, but then maybe not. If he had not encountered police and gone home, there is a good chance he was on the verge of a heart attack already.
We weren't privy to all the evidence presented to the grand jury, but they would have had to see proof that the cop knowingly and willfully harmed the guy. I don't see how the cop could have known about the guy's condition. It's possible the guy didn't know how bad off his heart was.
If a person is choked to death, they die on the spot. An autopsy would have shown the cause of death. Without knowing all the details, it's too hard to judge. I would guess the grand jury had information not released to the public yet.
I know police use the chokehold all the time and this is rare, so there must have been other things at play here, like the guy's general health. I just can't buy that a cop murdered someone in front of witnesses. I really can't believe that.
Hannity had some nut on yesterday who was supposedly some sort of 'expert' who claimed that you could clearly see that it wasn't a chokehold, it was a headlock.
1. The chokehold is not illegal.
2. The man died 4 hours later, likely caused by his poor health and not from choking.
The contradiction of the left is that they want to inject government into every little aspect of our lives and mandate that the police confront us all the time over everything—and then they scream when some of those confrontations go wrong. In this way, they are not only hoping for a new series of contentious, racially charged killings. By extending the reach of government and the omnipresence of police power in our lives, they are creating the conditions that make those cases inevitable....

Whenever someone fails to be specific and uses words like "everything" "every little aspect" you have to wonder what type of person uses such broad generalizations?
A liar
