The Senseless killing of Eric Garner and Our Police State

• http://www.crimefilenews.com, Crimefile
Think about it for a moment.  Trying to make a meager living in a miserable economy by selling a legal product deserves death now in New York.
That's precisely what happened to an obviously overweight (350 lbs.) and unhealthy man last week.  A squad of cops investigating this tax transgression approached Eric Garner. Garner actually begged the cops to leave him alone.   Soon Garner began to shun the cops and resist being handcuffed and the cops piled on him.  All too quickly, Garner was dead.
Was it the long banned chokehold?  I don't think so.  I suspect positional asphyxia was the actual cause of death.  Does it really make any difference how they killed him?  Garner was killed not by policemen in the true sense of that noble occupation but a gang of government extortionists.
