@cnn.com @lauracoates.com, An example of too much law enforcement than needed would be when law enforcement stopped/detained #EricGarner for lack of taxes on cigarettes. The only power that police should have ever had for this civil matter would be 1/2 officers fine and ticket to appear in court.

#EricGarner was known as a gentle giant and a peacemaker. He’d just broken up a fight, but that didn’t matter to the plainclothes police officers who rolled up. They didn’t even try to find the fighters.

What you wrote is ahistorical and false. DEMOCRATS ushered in mandatory minimums and shot Black incarceration rates through the roof. Obama signed the “Blue Alert” law to protect cops 1 year after #EricGarner was murdered by NYPD and the same year that #SandraBland was murdered by police.

On #ThisDayInHistory in 2014, #EricGarner was murdered by #NYPD because they thought he was selling cigarettes. The excessive force used against suspects by US #police forces would shame any tinpot dictatorship. That we can't fix it is outrageous.

Pantaleo was also the subject of 2 civil rights lawsuits in 2013 where plaintiffs accused him of false arrest & busing them. In 1 of the cases, he & other officers allegedly ordered 2 black men to strip naked on the street for a search & the charges against the men were dismissed.

On July 13, 2015, an out-of-court settlement was reached, under which the City of New York would pay the Garner family $5.9 million. In 2019, the U.S. Department of Justice declined to bring criminal charges against Pantaleo under federal civil rights laws.

The cops waited for an ambulance to arrive. Garner was pronounced dead at an area hospital approximately one hour later. The medical examiner ruled Eric Garner's death a homicide. On Dec 4, 2014, a Richmond County grand jury decided not to indict Pantaleo.

Pantaleo then put his arm around Garner's neck & wrestled him to the ground.
Facts: W/ multiple cops pinning him down, #EricGarner repeated the words "I can't breathe" 11 times while lying face down on the sidewalk. After Garner lost consciousness, he remained lying on the sidewalk for 7 mins.

After #EricGarner told the cops that he was tired of being harassed & that he was not selling cigarettes, the cops attempted to arrest Garner. When White, NYC police officer Daniel Pantaleo placed his hands on him, Garner pulled his arms away.
