If they had juts agreed to some more terms, like barring choke holds, I think it could have gotten done.  But for some reasons Republicans stood strong on a practice that is known to be deadly and  is laready barred in most police forces.

YES!! They tried to "push through" a law in which they were allowing the Dems to address as many amendments as they wanted. Who knows if the Dems would have allowed the bill to be debated maybe, just maybe....

But the Dems found that one little nugget that they can claim the GOP is "Trying to get away with murder" on their "token" Bill.
