He asked about the neck issue to ban choke holds to serve the community - and minimize people from injury-

Thank you uncle for speaking up and standing up when others wouldn’t.

Amen, I agree. I think that the idea to utilize a choke hold to subdue anyone is absolutely asinine. There's no way that a choke hold will not kill or at the very least permanently damage someone. If you use a choke hold your aim is to kill!

I strongly disagree, in most of these situations, including Floyd's, the subjects were refusing to comply with police instructions, so how does that make it racist? I agreed the optics look bad, but how is it racism? Im a black man saying this.
