Maybe this should have gone to a grand jury too.

Wow,one response(the lawman losing his job) we can understand.
In those pictures it is evident that air inflow(needed to sustain live)was restricted if not stopped,a choke hold is the same.Are police allowed to prevent people from breathing when they are being arrested?
The argument supporting the no indictment from the grand jury is whereas choke hold is a violation of departmental laws,it is not illegal,they say that with a straight face.
As far as I am concerned,Wilson murdered Brown but the Garner is a more blatant miscarriage of justice,the video is there for all to see.Brown was resisting arrest for merely saying do not touch me.If unnecesary force is being used by agents of the state be has a right to repell it by using needed force,he did not swing at the officers,doing so would have been acceptable under the law.There is a unique relationship between prosecutors and law enforcers,a special prosecutor should be appointed when police are accused of murdering a citizen under the cloak of conducting duty.
Besides,grand juries almost always end with indictments,not so if the indictment is of police officers.
The Erric Garner case is even more telling ,it was the duty of every police officer to safeguard Garner life,over ten times he said he could not breathe but to no avail.
The task at hand is to actually change things.
