a man identified as a marine veteran tackled him to the ground and put him in a choke hold. the marine reportedly held him like that for several minutes. dana: kneely was later pronounced dead. the man seen tackling him was taken into custody and released and not charged yet. that is igniting outrage on the left. protestors taking to the streets. look at your screen there calling for the marine to face murder charges. some democrats are echoing that sentiment and pressuring the d.a. alvin bragg to prosecute him dana: kneely was 30 years old. homeless. made a living as a subway performer and michael jackson impersonator. he had a history of mental illness and arrested dozens of times and told police he was schizophrenic. the city failed him. dana: this case is reigniting the debate on law enforcement. many arguing his death could have been prevented if police had been allowed to do their jobs. this horrible tragedy was completely avoidable but it has come about bec
