A medical examiner ruled Friday that a police officer's
chokehold caused the death of a man whose videotaped arrest and final
pleas of "I can't breathe!" sparked outrage and led to the overhaul of
use-of-force training for the nation's largest police department.
Eric
Garner, a black man whose confrontation with a white police officer has
prompted calls by the Rev. Al Sharpton for federal prosecution, was
killed by neck compressions from the chokehold and "the compression of
his chest and prone positioning during physical restraint by police,"
city medical examiner spokeswoman Julie Bolcer said.
Asthma,
heart disease and obesity were contributing factors in the death of the
43-year-old Garner, a 6-foot-3, 350-pound father of six, she said.
Police do what they've been trained to do. In this case they were trained to murder a man that had just broken up a fight, then they accused him of selling un-taxed cigarettes to smear him and justify the murder. As far as they are concerned, he was a black thug so who cares. Everything is fine and the murderer's will be back on the street "protecting" others from the dangers of those cheap cigarettes soon!
This man has a lengthy criminal record, weighed 350 lbs, resisted arrest and went psycho on the cops and you soft hearted liberal idiots say this is good news a police brutality. I guess you candy ass liberal think if you speak nicely to this thug he will turn are politely and let six lengths of hand cuffs be placed on him.
I would love to see you pansies put your life on the line and have to deal with criminal thugs like this every day. How do you think he was going to be arrested?
Because of this you will see more and more cops murdered in this country.
I just watched the video over and over again and I wouldn't call that a choke hold. The smaller officer grabbed him from behind to bring him to the ground. The smaller officers arm was around his neck to help bring him down and that is not the "choke hold" I was trained with. They also did not put much if any pressure on this criminals chest. This big fat overweight criminal had a known medical history. His days were numbered anyway. The fact that headlines in another article states that Eric Holder is watching this case closely speaks volumes. This was a set up because someone caved in to the feds and now this young officer is going down for this known take over by the Federal Government. We will be a police state before you know it because of you soft hearted morons. NYPD has one of the best police departments in the world and they top any federal police agency in existence today.
Watch the Hunger Games people and you wish you Softies would have listened to me.
We're already living in a police state, and ex-Mayor Bloomberg even stated he had the seventh largest army in the world. Softie cops choking out fat, overweight dudes for selling untaxed cigarettes, real tough guys.
Funny to watch all the hissy fits on here. The cops killed him. It was a minor crime. It is that simple. I don't care how big or mad he was, supposedly cops are specially trained to arrest people without killing them, (or so THEY say. You can try and put what ever spin you want on it, the facts above are that simple.
I am a medical professional and I can assure you that the little 5 second "choke hold" did not kill that overweight criminal. I counted the so called choke hold and it was less than 5 seconds. Let's pretend that you stop breathing for 5 seconds. Hopd your breath for 5 seconds. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. What happened? I bet you easily took another breath with no problem. After the so called choke hold the criminal was saying "I can't breathe, I can't breathe." If he couldn't breathe this is what you would hear " ."
If you can speak you can breathe. If he was moving air his wind pipe(trachea) wasn't collapsed or compressed as in the so call notes from the medical examiner. A trachea consists of cartilage which is pliable so that is does bounce back if compressed.
This overweight criminal had a known cardiac and asthma condition which more than likely contributed to his demise. His 175 lbs of adipose tissue also contributed to his demise. Keep eating those fried foods like cheeseburgers and French fries.
This young cop is the scapegoat for a federal take over as well as another era of rioting just like the Rodney King episode. If you cop haters think this was about an "illegal choke hold" then you are still stupid and didn't learn from your mistakes when you voted for Obama the first or second time.
You soft hearted liberals, RINO's, sheeple and cop haters need to wake up and realize what the Obama administration is doing to you. They are turning you against each other to promote the race wars or class wars. When a Rodney King style riot or a race war begins this will be Obama's chance to implement Martial Law and gun confiscation.
You people are easily distracted and you need to wake up before it is to late. As the commenter said before you need to watch the movie Hunger Games. The Hunger Games is an example of what the average citizen will be like in America after the take over.
Choke holds don't just cut off oxygen supply to the lungs. The reason they are outlawed is because they shut off blood supply to the brain and cause loss of consciousness in a matter of seconds. This is the reason they are effective but also deadly. There are numerous instances where people died from a vascular choke hold. Which is why they are outlawed in some places. If one was to read the coroners report the choke hold was only one of many contributors to the cause of death. If you don't believe what I said Google it.

There was no compromise of any of the vasculature in the neck. That is why he was conscious and breathing the whole 5 seconds of the choke hold. Quit hating cops and defending thugs.
you need to stop watching fantasy movies and thinking it equates into reality. your many words do not make you appear smart, as you intend.
it further provides proof to your delusions.

The validity of your poor and incomprehensible grammar makes your statement invalid. Go back and finish high school and you may be able to get a real job like a police officer.
Al Sharpton lol The Snitch at it again calling for Federal Investigation. Sharpton is a two faced "Snitch". Kisses Whitey's ass when he needs money. Then lies to the Black man. Al come vistit the "Bury" we are having a cook out in Willards in your honor. It is a snitch roast.
Oh as for that fat diabetic criminal he got what he had coming. Yall feel me. lol
Ignorance and racism is rampant in these comments, par for the course on here. If I had a dollar for every occurrence of some moron using the phrase "bleeding heart liberal". How about you turn Rush off for a day or two and think for yourself. Come up with your own vocabulary. You look just as idiotic and childish as the real liberals on huffpost or similar sites calling people "repukes" or whatever other inane names they come up with. I'd assume many of these commenters are twice my age, but have a hell of a lot more growing up to do.

all you 'medical professionals' with your unqualified and uniformed opinions make me laugh.
ReplyDeleteyou think you know more than a ME from a few stills and a video.
