    To everyone saying he didn’t resist, you’re wrong. He did not cooperate with the officers and even started walking away while detained. They were forced to either subdue him, or just let him walk away. The guy who killed people didn’t try walking away or anything else that would make them feel out-of-control of the situation.

    Now in this case, the officer that choked him may have used excessive force, and should be punished, but that doesn’t mean they subdued him because he was black. They subdued him because he was too cool to follow police orders. You always get subdued for that.

      Lets say t in your assertion that the officer was justified in subduing Garner, but not justified in killing him, that you’re 100% correct.

      IMO, being a Black person in America is like having the worst form of PTSD known to man(for lack of better phrasing). PTSD due to the history of systematic race based raping and impregnating of Black women, racist breeding practices, racist lynchings, much of it committed by LEO’s not even a generation ago. Taking all of the atrocities into consideration, do you really think it’s out of the realm of possibility that Black people just might be a bit sensitive whenever there’s an unjustified act committed upon us?

      I’ll try to use a rape victim as an example. Lets say there’s a woman who was kidnapped and brutally raped by a man over, and over, and over again. Would it be unreasonable if that woman saw every man as a threat? No. Now let’s say while at work, she happens to overhear a rude, insensitive joke about sex or rape. Shehypoth just might understandably see the jokesters as a direct threat to being victimized all over again.

      I realize my comparison in the hypothetical is apples and oranges. But Black people are understandably weary whenever we see injustice committed upon us. I mean...it’s not like it’s never happened before.

      The fact you believe in what you say makes me question should you ever be in any sort of position of power. Amazing what white people justify so they can comfortably believe in a just system. You can come up with all the rhetoric you want but you can’t take away people perception..well unless you’re white that is

    Predictably while we have white tears in one comment section we have the usual troll pricks coming here to slander Mr. Garner and make excuses for the cop who in their shitty words “may” have used excessive force when this pig murdered Mr. Garner.

    You people need to get the entire fuck out of here.

    Justice and “progress” is an illusion to black America and most minorities. The justice system only protects whites and people who willing white wash themselves to fit In The system. We literally have footage of blacks people being killed and their murders walk free? White people call it progess so they’ve don’t have to confront me the reality of shitty govt. America and their systems are terrorist here and overseas.
