Yep.
Now in other cases where the people WERE being compliant they just get arrested...not choked. So....good.
Clearly we just need to station more officers at every business black people go to. You know, just in case the are "worked up" about something.
First off, maybe don't raise such a ruckus that the people at Waffle House, WAFFLE HOUSE, feel the need to call the cops.
Secondly, yes, when people are compliant with the police, they are rarely, if ever, choked by the police.
Thirdly, if the police are trying to arrest you and you are not being compliant, then you are resisting arrest. At this point, they need to get you under control. Now, it's possible for the police to be too physical in trying to get you under control, but the fact remains had you been compliant from the beginning, you wouldn't be injured.
Lastly, having more police officers stationed at locations black people are at is only going to lead to more incidents like this if black people can't learn to be more compliant with police officers.
