Thousands of protesters took to the streets in NYC in anger over a grand jury verdict to not indict officer Daniel Pantaleo after he strangled unarmed Eric Garner to death over a confrontation for selling untaxed cigarettes and breaking up a fight.
Protesters chanted “I can’t breathe”, which were the final words of Garner, who suffered from asthesma, as he was in the throes of an illegal chokehold by Pantaleo.
