    NYPD has been crying all day that Daniel Pantaleo was fired for choking an innocent black man to death (Medical Examiner said chokehold was the cause of death). They now complain that their morale is low - are you going to be ok now that you can't kill innocent black men?!

        They say they can't do their jobs anymore. If that was your interpretation of the job then I'm thrilled that you can't do that. If you're being pouty little children because you can't kill indiscriminately anymore, then shut up and do your job! The one where you protect people.

        They just can't do their job if they are held responsible for their actions and can't just kill people... you ask too much of them. They were forced to give up Stop and Frisk. What do they have now? /s

        He killed the man. Plain and simple What part of "I cant breathe" did ANY of those officers not get? Not a taser between any of them? They could not hold him in place and let him breathe? Good riddance Pantaleo. If you had a mask on you would've been arrested and tried for murder

        They tried holding him in place, the man resisted and was morbidly obese s body couldn't handle being held down by an officer's weight. No one's arm was around his neck when he was saying he couldn't breathe.https://twitter.com/RepPress/status/1157616640261021696 …

        A grand jury reviewed the evidence: ALL of Garner's “I can't breathe” pleas were AFTER Pantaleo's arm was no longer around his neck. Clearly NOT choked to death. Garner was morbidly obese, his body couldn't handle being held down by an officer's weight. http://marker.to/b0ERKK  pic.twitter.com/a2w8RG52wE

        If they admitted he performed a chokehold that was not allowed in their protocol and ended up killing this poor man, why is this officer just fired, shouldn’t he be also tried for murder?

        They also went and studied everything and the choke hold even though it didn’t help was not the main reason his heart went out

        to protect & serve is what you are supposed to do. You could also get the bad cops arrested and or fired so the community can restore its trust. It’s that simple. Good cops are there they need to take control away from the corrupt.
