Is he the large fellow who got jumped for selling loosies and died? That sucked. Sort of like a targeted killing to protect big tobacco.

that's him. specifically jumped by 6 cops who were so abusive and rough with him he had a heart attack. thinking about it because of the analogous insane overtaxation of tobacco in NYC and the resulting grey-market dealers (Eric Garner was a professional cigarette bootlegger)

tobacco prohibition has become a blue tribe obsession in the last 10 years. it's incredibly destructive and I can't believe they're pursuing this while also trying to end cannabis prohibition. fucking idiots.
