That's about as petty a crime as you can find, a crime of poor people who have no other way to support themselves or their family. It's a little like selling CD rips in front of a convenience store. That can get you killed too if you're black.
He wasn't even selling loosies when accosted by the police. He had just broken up a fight. The cops decided to jack him up for a few cop laughs. Pantaleo decided to kill him.

You're so obviously intellectually compromised in discussions like this that there's really no point in debating with you. Just keep believing that those cop's "chickens will come home to roost" if that'll make you feel better.
