Another case of speaking ill of the dead, I guess he doesn't get your respect as a human being who lost his life from you does he?

I'm saddened you feel this way about someone, I think he loved his family, I even seen his daughter crying in an interview about her father.

I'm sure she did love her father. Even though he wasn't a good example of an honest citizen, I'm sure she loved him.

That is an insensitive thing to post.

Also I'm not supporting anyone. I'm just not handing my brain or emotions over because of peer pressure or false accusations.

I believe he should be tried for negligence

Sorry Prax, no evidence and I didn't read any news links that actually said he was caught doing anything.

Wait, what!? Why? You've been arguing from the beginning that his actions were legal, or did I miss something?

What was his negligence, if you believe he used the proper takedown technique and didn't use a choke hold?

Don't get me wrong, I'm glad we agree on the cop being tried for negligence.

You've been lying about me for days. You missed a lot.

You don't have a clue about that, you really don't. Even criminals care about their family.

My parents were involved in prison ministry for almost 3 decades. I attended many services with them during that time and talked with the men in that prison. We also had 2 men live with us for a while after their release.

That kind of statement is made in either arrogance or ignorance. Either way, it's completely wrong.
