Sorry, it's a legitimate point. You can't argue what you do and then ignore the administrations dismissal of the laws. Their refusal to prosecute the people that crashed the economy. An administration that gave arms to drug dealers, lost them and caused the death of an officer and then lied about it.
Mostly for selling loose cigarette's it would seem. Stupidity perpetuating stupidity.
Exactly. Most people get in trouble with the po-po would reconsider their avocation. Not this dip****, he went full retard.
Some of the charges: Assault, resisting arrest, grand larceny, driving without a license, MJ possession, false impersonation and the aforementioned selling a little ciggy here or there.
That being said, he did not deserve to die and did not deserve to be handled in that manner. But, when your arrest record approaches your IQ, it may be time to just go along to get along.
But he's black which means our white media overlords tell us that he's barely above literacy level, can't get an ID, and generally needs his hand held his entire life...by a liberal of course. Conservatives are racist, dont forget to rock the vote!
Citizens have been calling for less harassment by the police for years, of course they support it. In part it is also why the voted for DiBlasio.
Yes...................... "less harassment".
Apparently you were never in NYC in the '70s and early '80s. It was dirty, crime was high, drug dealers freely roamed the streets (smoke,dope,meth, speed, pill chant), and prostitutes came up to your car after 9 pm.
We always carried guns into the city, because it was not safe. The town stunk of garbage and urine and was a crap hole.
Gulliani turned the place into a very safe city. Tourists could take out cameras, dress like non-New Yorkers, and walk the streets with no fear. NYC turned into Disney Land North.
Currently, we cancelled two trips to NYC for 2015 due to concern over safety. DeBlasio is such a moron that he will kill the city over political correctness and idiocy. Let's see how NYC fares economically under DeBlasio.
Liberals destroy everything they touch- when will US citizens ever learn?

Were you afraid someone might offer you a .75 cent smoke?
That's such bs. Do your damn job you fricken idiots. I know there are good cops out there, somewhere, but this whining from the NYPD just pisses me off. Don't strong arm people over little things that you assume, and stop overreacting to the point of someone's death. For an alleged cigarette.
They don't "feel safe" doing their jobs? Now they know how some of the citizens feel when they see a cop.
I bet 90% of the population has NEVER had an encounter with a police officer. If you don't flaunt the law, you have no problem.
If they'd had this approach to a guy selling single cigs for pennies back in July, instead of strangling him, they could have saved themselves a whole lot of grief.
Something tells me that slacking off now isn't going to gain them much support.
The police did not kill him. He had a heart attack on the way to the hospital due to his pre-existing health problems.
