Outrage grows across New York as black homeless man dies after being placed
in a chokehold by former US marine on NYC Subway
Video in the link ![]() The altercation has grim parallels to the killing of George Floyd and has sparked protests in the city. Jordan Neely, 30, was said to have been shouting at passengers in the carriage in Manhattan and trying to tell them he was thirsty and hungry. Witnesses said Mr Neely was then tackled by passengers and restrained by at least three people, including the ex-marine. The 24-year-old from Long Island, whose identity is unknown, pulled one arm tightly around Mr Neely's neck during the scuffle on Monday. Mr Neely struggled to break free from the chokehold, but a second rider held down his shoulders while a third pinned his arms. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/art...YC-Subway.html |

There are 3 of them around him, no need to have him in a choke hold at all, just pin his legs and arms down

Obviously not a race thing, given than one of three men struggling to hold him down was black.
Full story needed. But given that Neely had a history of violence -and 42 arrests- and the man administering the chokehold was a marine, we can probably guess. But I'm sure the marine has already been declared guilty by twitter based on nothing but his skin colour.

In this particular case, the Marine guy should be done for at least manslaughter imo, regardless of if you think it's a hate crime or not, what he did was dangerous. He needs to face a punishment.

Not surprised you're jumping to conclusions without the full picture and making it all about race.

They want another reaction from the people like they got with George Floyd, will you be sold?
An Asian woman was killed when she was pushed onto the tracks in the New York subway, there was no outrage for her, the likes of AOC were silent on that one. The offended wasn't White. This guy, and it is sad that he died, was a recidivis criminal that the leaders in New York wanted on the streets for this purpose. They wanted the public to dish out order instead, then they can use it politically. Last edited by Alf; 06-05-2023 at 08:15 AM. |

They want chaos, it's good for their push to change the laws to gain total power over the people. And that's more important to them than representing their constituents. |

Erm a choke hold is always dangerous and the guy - especially as a trained marine - is probably guilty of manslaughter.
However it shouldn't (... Shouldn't...) be anything like George Floyd because there is a pretty huge difference between a civilian ex-marine and an on-duty police officer in terms of power differential and responsibility. |

That choke hold you use to render a man unconscious and it works in about 30 seconds
but if you continue for ages then yep you will kill the person as the clue is in the name of the maneuver Amazed that noone said to the guy "er if you do that too long you will kill him m8" |

Maybe, but Americans have a love affair with the military. Folks only have to have worked as a cleaner at an army base, and they'll be thanked for their service.

I'm more concerned about how much my shopping is costing me than this guys life. He means nothing to.me. it's terrible for his friends and family, but we all have our own problems to deal with. I ain't got room for this criminals problems on top of my own.

Court? I'm fairly sure the police have already talked to him, reviewed the footage (beyond the screenshots used in baiting articles), and decided there's nothing to pursue.

I can guarantee you if it were a cop holding the guy in a choke hold there would be plenty people telling him to stop, shows really some people dont actually care about their fellow human beings unless there is an angle in it for them
