The 46-year-old African American man died on Monday after pleading for his life as a police officer kneeled on his neck, pinning him down for at least seven minutes. With so many deaths and countless injuries, why are chokeholds and neck restraints still allowed as tactics during arrests? #GeorgeFloyd #PoliceChokehold #USPoliceHomicide
