essentially a ticket. this is like being stopped for speeding and then he wasn t even selling these cigarettes at the time. exactly. there was no evidence of him selling anything, and then they arrested him, which goes to the civil rights of the case. here s my problem with the whole situation. more so than anything else. show this part of the video. this is after the so-called choke hold, and this is when eric garner is down on the ground, gentlemen. nobody s helping him. it looks as if nobody is helping him. i think this is one of the things that the american public can t wrap their heads around. when somebody is potentially dying in front of you, you don t help? harry. they definitely should have been helping him. i m sure if he was in respiratory arrest at the time, there should have been something done. i don t know what time ems responded. i don t know if the officers were going try and do cpr on the gentleman or not. i don t even know if he was unconscious at that time
