No chance! In the post-Trayvon world we live in the admins have cut back on censoring honest speech. That being said it is a joke these people are getting a penny. Eric was a career criminal that fought with police and was too fat to breathe.This post was edited on 7/14/15 at 12:48 pm

White criminal gets killed by police...white people yawn and of course black people don't care.
Black criminal gets killed why resisting arrest and black people freak out...doesn't matter if the guy was a POS or not....blacklivesmatter
Then give the guys family 6 million...ridiculous.

And for what it's worth, I hope Steinle's family owns San Francisco when it's all said and done.

..and will be broke inside 5 years.

I'm not that upset about it, he was unjustly killed. However involving Al is another thing, he will be there just to showboat.

I'm not comparing Steinle to Garner.
But you literally just did haha Whats that saying around here...? "Play stupid games, win stupid prizes". Steinle is nothing like Garner. She was truly innocent and in the wrong place at the wrong time. I agree he didnt deserve to die, but his failure to comply with an officers request yielded a shitty outcome. Why do so many people think fighting/resisting a cop is ever a good idea? Its mind boggling to me.

that is only part of it..I think most of it is for pain and suffering or something like that

Exactly. Sharpton owes how much to the IRS, yet still meets with THE President in person on multiple occasions?

But Garner didn't deserve what happened to him. It was excessive
What was excessive was the number of times he had been arrested.
What was excessive was the number of times in this arrest in which he refused to comply.
Finally, what was excessive, was his weight....which led to his death.

He wasn't killed. He died from being a fat dumbass.

Because many people think they should fight back if they feel the cops aren't justified in arresting them. This is an incredibly stupid mentality, because the cops are not going to just back down. Once they've decided to arrest you, they're not changing their minds.

Honestly, I had completely forgotten he resisted. I thought he died from an unprovoked slam to the ground.
I'm out this thread now.

Nah, dude was put in a choke hold and taken down after he refused to comply with the officers for doing something illegal. Hence the reason this is such bullshite.

Precisely. Operating on pure emotion/adrenaline is hardly a wise decision, no matter the circumstance. People need to realize they can allow an officer to do their job, allow the initial detaining to occur, then proceed to object in a calmer, more intelligent manner.

His death is the best thing that ever happened to that family.
Now they'll move out of the ghetto and into an upper class predominantly white neighborhood. Over time, they'll come to appreciate their new status in life and they'll want to protect it, as in protect their property and assets.
They'll learn to appreciate the police who patrol their neighborhood to prevent criminals from burglarizing the upper class homes. They'll come to understand that thugs, not the hard working high income earners, are the problem.
And then eventually they'll have an epiphany that the people who threaten their new lifestyle are people like Eric Garner, and this epiphany will be burdensome because Eric Garner's criminality is the reason they are wealthy. How will they reconcile love for Eric Garner with a total rejection of people like Eric Garner? Tough moral dilemma that will naturally force the Garner family to think about things from a different perspective which will result in them realizing that his death wasn't so black and white, the police aren't the enemy, and perhaps special interest groups took advantage of Garner's death and the situation.
Maybe in the end they'll feel somewhat guilty for stealing $5+ million from honest hardworking tax paying citizens.
Then again...
They'll probably spend all the money within 2 years and be broke again resorting to crime and worthlessness as a daily way-of-existence, having learned nothing from the experience.

I try to speak brutal truth as much as I can. One of these days we will no longer have the freedom to voice an honest opinion. It'll be "toe-the-line" or die...

None, as none should. It's theirs

How is this any bit funny?
Regardless of the race issues around it, you and your (everyone's families) would try to tax the state for everything they had.
Get off your high horses
