Now what is Fox news going to say about this one, since there was video?

And it was against NYPD regulations. AND the corner ruled it homicide.

How many times can you say, "I can't breathe" before you remove your knee from a person's neck?

Exactly. I just don't understand how 1) this happened and 2) he wasn't indicted.

This doesn't bode well for anything. How is it 2014 - almost 2015 and this shit is still happening?!

I just saw this. I don't have any words that really expresses the full range of my emotions about it. None of them are "positive" though.

Did anyone else read Chris Rock's newest interview? It is powerful stuff re: race relations.

People have different opinions based on their own personal experiences, I get that. But how can anyone dispute that deadly force by police officers are used more often against black and brown people?

There is little talking, negotiating, or benefit of the doubt that is given to other people. At least agree on that. It's not to say that the police never killed a white person, but man it sure seems like they get a few more seconds before the gun gets drawn.

@NOLAbridesmaid - just found the Fox news angle - His pre-existing conditions, aka being heavy, caused his death.

In other words, don't resist arrest, don't be black, and don't be fat.
