The problem in Ferguson? The Obama administration, the media and activists


Last week, a New York grand jury declined ​​to indict a police officer who, in efforts to restrain a non-compliant suspect, held him in what many saw as a chokehold. Their announcement came in the wake of public uproar over controversial events nearly 1,000 miles away in Ferguson, Mo.
Americans were fixated on a St. Louis County, Missouri grand jury's decision not to indict a police officer, Darren Wilson, for shooting at an 18-year-old aggressor following a convenience store robbery.

Although the facts of the cases are dramatically different, good people have raised legitimate questions about police tactics and a perceived divide between law enforcement and at-risk communities.

    1. Homicide is the act of a human killing another human whch you can do in many ways. It found that compressions to the chest and “prone positioning during physical restraint by police” killed Garner.
