This is an extremely disturbing piece of news. A defenseless man, a father, having words with police officers on a NYC sidewalk. The man had not done anything wrong, had in fact just broken up a another fight. Not threatening, but upset. Police charge and throw him to the ground in a chokehold, man begs them to stop repeatedly, I can't breath, I can't breath. He dies.
The cop who killed the man with the chokehold has been taken off the street, had to turn in his badge and gun, but is apparently still on the force.
WARNING - Very very disturbing - I can't get this video out of my head. Something is very wrong here.
