Quote:I get that and that's what I said in a post above. The hold should still be taught as a self defense tactic ONLY.

 

You're focusing on something completely irrelevant.

 

Whether they teach how to do a choke hold or not isn't relevant to whether the officers murdered a subdued man.

 

Even if the NYC condoned the use of such tactics it still wouldn't change that he specifically used it unnecessarily and purposefully even when the subdued victim made it as clear as he could under the circumstance that he was being suffocated to death.
