Easiest way to avoid this?
6. Don't commit criminal activity.
7. Comply when legally detained.
He had since 1980 (first arrest) to figure this out...

1. As I understand it, the police violated NYC "chokehold" rules.
2. Does being a purveyor of illicit cigarettes, even a habitual one, carry a death sentence? No.
3. "I can't breathe." generally means someone can't breathe and you should probably get the f**k off of his neck so he can.......because being a petty tax cheat is not a crime punishable by death.
That's how I see it.
