Five "heroes" against one unarmed, overweight man with bad asthma. A nice, level playing field for the brave and mighty.......

Noticed they didn't name the cops responsible in the article. Wonder why?

Cops kill almost everyone they interact with. Cops are the USA's most prolific killers.

And again, one life is lost, because "The Victim" didn't co operate with the police for his own good. It is simple as that. Why "yes sir, I follow your commands and you can take me on the custody peacefully" isn't any option for these guys? Why they never learn that they can't fight with the police, because they always lose? Because they are fucking morons and all what happens is the result of that fact. Do you guys really think that police, who want to take you in the custody, stops and let you go if try to fuck with him? You guys need to think that scenario all over again

35000 arrests are made each day so this is bound to happen now and then, things can go wrong. You cant say cops are bad because of it. News only shows you the worst outcomes.

No, I think you're wrong here. The dead man's children will just remain silent, even after their dad is buried. They will most likely sympathize with the five or so officers who were only doing their job. Unfortunately, their father was what is called collateral damage.....just another case....next, move on.

Those kids will probably grow up to respect law enforcement, contribute to their local PBA, and when old enough to drive, sport a nice shiny badge in the window to show support for the men in blue.

Yep...didn't cooperate, has a looooong rap sheet of 31 different arrest and was out there that day selling untaxed cigerettes.

His prior arrests have nothing to do with the fact the man was choked to death unnecessarily. Yesterday, the article said the guy was breaking up a fight. Now, he was selling cigarettes. Of course he was.......

He wasn't the head of a multimillion dollar bootleg cigarette operation....if the article is truthful, at worst he was selling INDIVIDUAL cigarettes from a single pack. Does that warrant the death penalty to you?

Killer pigs Daniel Pantaleo and Justin Damico are now on dreaded "desk duty." That will teach em'

I love how Al Sharpton is now involved. Where was Sharpton when this family was struggling? Nowhere. Now he wants to make a profit off of this mans death.

I hate Al Sharpton.

He was a big fucking guy with prior arrests, guy is known to the police, he didnt comply, what do you expect them to do?

_bruce_ · « **Reply #18 on:** July 19, 2014, 02:02:03 PM »

Fuck, Al Farton is now fully bent on starting RaceWar I.

Believe it or not, cops in Austria have done the same to some dealers... few would believe that could happen.

I expect them to use force appropriate to effect an arrest. Choking a person to death is almost always unreasonable in my opinion. Was it in this case? Probably, at least based on the video. This could change as an investigation is conducted and other facts come to light. However the fact, as of now, is this: a police officer choked a citizen to death.

Choking a guy unconscious is better than knocking him unconscious.

I was once in a similar position in a previous job, I had to take someone down much bigger than me and I choked him out, I couldn't do anything else, if I had let him up he would have likely killed me.

It's a sad video and fate for that man. However, as I always say, we don't know the full details of the scenario. And more importantly, we don't know the backstory of this man and his encounters with the law.

But any way you slice it, it's a tragedy. His whimpering cries that he "can't breathe" are tough to hear.

Yep, its a shame when shit like this occurs but its bound to occur here and there.
Cops go through shit on daily basis and are putting their own lives at risk so I can't blame them for being sometimes heavy handed on non-compliant dudes.

Simple Simon · « **Reply #23 on:** July 19, 2014, 03:16:00 PM »

If it meant you going home to your family or some non-compliant idiot then theres no choice is there?

Big Boy didn't do himself any favors being in such terrible shape.

He was a massive heart attack waiting to happen.
