In response to "Even innocent...swinging at a cop (open handed or not) is stupid. At the very least, we should be able to agree on that. -- nm" by Jim

He never swung at the cops he just refused to let them cuff him for a crime he says he didn't commit.

He never attacked the cops. They attacked him.

That's not the time to argue; at the station or in court is. I do not condone the cops' actions but you wait for the right time to fight your battle. -- nm - zork Aug 1, 13:07 4
- I agree. I'm not saying he is right for resisting arrest. -- nm - Krusty Aug 1, 13:10 3
  - This is all I'm saying. Seems like it should be something we all can agree on...resisting arrest is not the way to go. -- nm - Jim Aug 1, 13:11 2
    - That's not what the story is about. That was put forward as a reason the choke hold is okay and most here are saying that's untrue -- nm - Bery si Aug 1, 13:13 1

- When you said swinging at a cop that leads me to believe he threw a punch or slap and that didn't happen. - Krusty Aug 1, 13:08 4
  - So, in your opinion...it's ok to swat a cops' hands away if you feel you're innocent? That's what you're saying? - Jim Aug 1, 13:09 3
    - That's not what I'm saying at all. I was clearing up that he didn't take a swing at the cops. - Krusty Aug 1, 13:12
    - i don't think anyone thinks that is the right call, but we don't feel that that transgression should be dealt with an (again) illegal chokehold. -- nm - Andie Aug 1, 13:10 1
      - I didn't say anything about that. All I said was swinging at a cop is stupid. That's all. nm -- nm - Jim Aug 1, 13:12
