Chokehold


I haven't followed this case closely. It didn't receive the same hoopla as Ferguson 


This might be a much more clear-cut case of police homicide or manslaughter than Ferguson. But we suffer from the boy who cried wolf syndrome. Because the race-baiters reflexively cry police brutality in every situation, people tend to tune out. Even a chronic liar tells the truth sometimes, but given his reputation, no one believes him. 

If they waited for better examples to come along, they'd get more of a hearing. But they blow their capital on dubious examples.

I'd add that even if this is a case of police homicide, that doesn't mean it was racially motivated.
