Right so let's arrest anyone for any reason and then kill anybody who resists. Good policy.

It's always funny to me how the people who would never in a billion years be even inconvenienced by the cops are the ones who rush the police's defense in every case. Myopia is a hell of a thing.

As a country we suffer from mass lack of personal and individual responsibility. That and a complete lack of reality either by choice or DNA.

Gerber, though obnoxious, is painfully correct.

No, let anyone who gets arrested resist, no matter what the reason is for the arrest.

Anarchy is a hell of a thing.

It's on video. The cop uses a choke hold for 6 seconds max to take him down and then kneels on his head. When the man is repeatedly heard on tape stating he can't breath he is no longer in a choke hold but likely having an asthma attack.

The cop's choke, take-down likely caused the asthma attack but the guy's refusal to cooperate caused the takedown. Wasn't like the cop was playing the knockout game looking for a vulnerable, innocent victim.
