        He was murdered. He didn't "die after......" He was alive. Then he was assaulted. Then he was dead. That's murder.

        the police should have other techniques to subdue the suspect. Resistance should be handled with a higher fine or jail not death

        Gotta love how cops have mastered the art of creating panic, excessive noise and confusion so they can sing you a lullaby!

        once again, police not responding properly to a situation and getting someone killed. Something is wrong in their approach.

        they are expected to use reasonable force when it is appropriate. If the guy is subdued, saying i quit, you should stop
