Actions have consequences.
Resisting arrest should not result in a death penalty, but Garner and his poor health and career choice pushed the envelope one too many times and the laws of probability took over.
Yes the laws of probability. When you taz an elderly person they will probably have a stroke. If 4 cops wrestle an obese middle aged man to the ground he will probably have a heart attack. Determining "reasonable force" for specific suspects is the real issue here.
It has NOTHING to do with race, or untaxed cancer sticks and everything to do with police conduct.
