I looked at pics from the internet and didn't see neck or face tattoos on Officer Pantaleo. However, his left arm appeared entirely covered from his wrist up past his elbow. Right arm covered above the elbow. Both legs appeared covered from the ankle up past the knee. If it had been my call I would not have hired the guy as a LE officer.
Then why on Earth bring up neck/face tattoos?
I have a full sleeve on my right arm, and my left leg is sleeved from the knee to the ankle. I'm an IT project manager for an international software company - a customer facing position. I promise you I don't look like a "psycho" or a "thug".
He had a job. Reportedly he had to resign for health reasons, related to his weight.
Nonetheless, he was able to father a child who was 3 months old at the time of Garner’s death.
I see someone with a long track record of lousy choices.
I guess nowawdays if you defend yourself or don't accept excessive use of force passively then you are resisting arrest. Nobody deserves to die for selling cigarettes. The chokehold was poor judgement, and a contributor to an undeserved death. That alone should result in the firing of the officer (just like shooting a kid with a BB gun did for that officer).
They should have simply handed him a paper ticket and walked away.

As long as you're not a cop I don't care if you have tattoos on your eyeballs.
