Oh, so now you're an anti-Semite as well? Great job man.

Had Michael Brown and Eric Garner not resisted arrest they would still be alive today. End of story.

I dunno... The multiple cops in Eric Garner's case using an illegal chokehold and sitting on his chest until he died is as over the line as it gets. He resisted but didn't physically attack them or go for a gun like in the Brown case. He didn't appear to me to be any kind of imminent threat once he was down. I think the grand jury made the wrong call here.

I read about and watch documentaries about true crime enough to know it takes a longer time than you'd think to strangle or suffocate someone to death. I believe it's like 3 to 4 minutes at the very least. Trying not to imagine what that must have been like for Eric Garner...

There's bound to be some angry people asking that couple "Oh?!? So you think this is funny??? Do you think what happened is so funny????"

I thought their douchebaggery was pretty funny, yes. Not the cops killing the dude and walking away scott free, but the baggery made me chuckle.

After doing more research on the matter and exploring sites that weren't owned by Conservative extremists, I think I'm about done with the issue.

I am convinced that there are multiple instances of something unusual going on, expecially in terms of how rules were and were not followed for the investigation. I find it especially unusual in how none of the bodies were allowed to be cleared from the building by awaiting EMT's to be taken to the hospital in a normal timely fashion, etc.

I'm not convinced it was a hoax. I think the researchers are going to have to dig up something better before they get me to that side of the fence. The big thing I'm stuck on is a clear lack of gain from someone putting so much risk on a hoax. It's going to help push forward gun control? Really? Something WAY better than this could have been staged. I need a motive of something bigger than that, something bigger than the loose change of 7+ million.

Chokehold isn't illegal. While it is banned by NYPD regulation it is legal under state law while making a lawful arrest. There was over 200,000 misdemeanor arrests in NYC in 2013 and how often do you see this happen? So much for the overzealous NYPD killing everyone right?

thats what this forum would look like if it was IRL instead of just on the web in text.

Michael Brown definitely deserved to be killed by the policeman!

There, thread over, go back to yelling about dragons
