Pantaleo was stripped of his gun and his shield and assigned to work desk duty.
The police union immediately denounced the move as “completely unwarranted.”
-We can always count on the Police Union, can't we? :-/
Yeah, killing a guy with a banned chokehold that is against nypd procedure is acceptable to quite a few people.
Union goons, badge worshipping morons, and those conditioned to accept such behavior as “okay” and “within reason”.
In before the badge worshippers.
Where’s a taser when ya need it?
Or have those been banned?
The guy apparently broke up a fight. Sure he was mouthing off and obnoxious but the choke move was over the top.

ACA-compliant law enforcement. The ultimate in efficiency.
What difference should that make? /s
Btt
This man’s death sounds similar to what happened to Kelly Thomas in Fullerton, CA.
He should have been suspended without pay and incarcerated pending charges of murder.
teamsters with guns. and immunity.
An ambulance was called and Garner went into cardiac arrest while he was being taken to Richmond University Medical Center, where he was later pronounced dead, Bratton said.

So Bratton says he went into cardiac arrest during ambulance transport. That doesn't sound credible given the video. ______________________________________________________________
Here’s the most complete video I’ve seen. It is truly stunning. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vT66U_Ftdng
With all the video equipped cell phones out there …
I hadn’t seen this 2nd video. Frickin’ really sad! Not one of them could try to help that man? I think that cop lied at the end and said he was breathing. I have a feeling everyone of them standing around knew he was a goner.
He was selling untaxed cigarettes. He deserved to die. It wasn’t like he was playing the harmless Knockout Game.
It is a union thing....... union EMT’s render first aid, not union cops. A cop would be fined for taking the job of an EMT
Sorry haters, this guy did not die from the choke. In fact, after watching the video, he wasn’t even ‘choked out.’ Look at his hand when he’s on the ground, he’s got it open and up. This guy died of a heart attack from exertion, obesity, struggling and having those other cops on top of him.
Police officer who put 400lb father in a fatal chokehold during arrest is stripped of his gun and badge
as he undergoes CPR training and then it will be restored no doubt.
I doubt the chokehold killed him. Chokeholds are used to subdue the victim by rendering them unconscious but will kill when applied over an extended period by suffocation. If applied with too much force the windpipe can be crushed permanently also leading to death. In both cases the victim will be unconscious and certainly unable to talk. The guy was complaining about not being able to breath which is probably what killed him. In any case killing someone for selling looseys or breaking up a fight is outrageous.
Too busy polishing up their MRAP that Obama gave them to make war on the American people?
I grew up in the liberal stinking, fetid, rotten, cesspool of New York city and finally got wise and escaped two years ago. When people ask me why I moved I say “Because of was sick of living in the liberals version of utopia, which is like living in North Korea but with food.” And then they laugh like they think I’m kidding. Well here you go ladies and gentlemen: Caught on video - A man being summarily executed because he tried to cheat money out of the state. Where do they do this kind of stuff? Oh that’s right, North Korea. And this stuff goes on alllll the time in New York city, the only difference being this time it was caught on tape. In the liberal Utopia of New York city, every single aspect of your life is dictated and if you do not toe the line they will F you up in the worst way possible. This is what liberals want for the rest of the country.
