New York governor signs bills banning police chokeholds and repealing 50-A, which shields police misconduct reports from the public

During his Fox News interview, Trump seemed to indicate he believed there were situations where police chokeholds might be necessary. “I don’t like chokeholds,” Trump told Harris Faulker. But he went on to say that the specific circumstances should dictate whether a chokehold is used. The president laid out an example of a “really bad person” confronting a police officer and said that situation had played out in recent weeks amid the George Floyd protests.

Well it's a start...stripping them from immunity and make them liable for suits paid for by their federation's and prosecution will elimate the need for these baby steps of reform

Let us hope that being wise after the event, in this case, brings mankind closer to the concept of parity and tolerance!

Aka does nothing. Chokeholds were already illegal lol

Essentially asking the police to restrain a violent person with one arm tied behind their back.

Honkies tryna fight the niggas war

This is the truth of HKPoliceBrutality , it's very disgusting.

Dems & Reps both as bad as each other

That’s really stupid and shows no understanding of what goes on in a street fight. Do we say to the Army you can’t use artillery or tanks because somebody might get badly hurt or killed? If you are a lone cop fighting for your life you will bite, gouge, choke to survive.

Is it Britain first spraying penny lane & calling for Chinese Alan to be removed from G&S ? Really damaging the BLM debate? As a Catholic I’ve never felt the need to ban bonfire night 😳🤷‍♀️

Why not just give criminals their own key so they can unlock themselves out of handcuffs or a free get out of jail pass. Or just let them do what they want and to hell with it all. The world has gone completely stark raving bonkers!

Reform? One ban is not reform
