It doesn't seem like parsing to me. It seems like a sincere attempt to explain why the grand jury came to a decision that many of us found inexplicable at the time. Insomuch as it gets us closer to the truth, you should be applauding it.I was shocked when it happened and the threads here and links helped me understand their LEGAL reasoning more.
You have no idea of their legal reasoning because it hasn't been released. You've read into it what you want so that you're back to the same ideals you had before you watched a cop kill a guy on video.
Explaining away his death by parsing the word "chokehold" is pretty telling, IMO. I'm not in the habit of explaining away deaths I care about. Maybe he's different.

Your response to the Garner Grand Jury announcement was "FTP". It's not like you are a willing to make a fair assessment here. You are essentially an anti-police advocate who runs around saying "FTP". I guess you would feel pretty shitty and attempt to deflect blame away from those who share your views after two cops are killed.
And here you are condemning NC because he is explaining what happened in a literal factual way, almost like you are sad that he is blowing up your simplistic narrative BY INTRODUCING FACT to this conversation.And then you double down by making the case that he likes it when cops kill citizens. That's dishonest.
And then Dumbass shows up and says:When did selling singles out of cigarette packs untaxed become a capital offense?
Lots of us were deeply troubled by it at the time. The disproportionate nature of it pissed me off. I was shocked and expressed as much here. But it's a shitty thing to do to act like it was an intentional murder of a man. Any one of those cops would sell his firstborn to have that day back, I guarantee. And personally , from watching the video and reading the reports, I think the Garner family should win a civil case against the NYPD in an excessive force case. I have a REALLY hard time with the simple fact that a guy can end up dead for selling loosies AND FEW WERE MORE ADAMANT ABOUT THAT THAN I. To me there was a failure of imagination here, a good cop could have descalated that and then a guy making a living would still be alive .And Garner should have factored in his health issues, complied with the officers, and he'd be eating turkey with his family this week, and two cops would be eating with theirs.
Many of us saw this building, spoke out against those fanning the flames with RACIAL HATRED and ANTI-COP HYSTERIA, and warned what would happen if we continued on with lazy generalities like "FTP". We shook our head with amazement when De Blasio and others "normalized" black criminality and violent speech . And now we have two dead cops. Congratulations. You "won".
