Whole different PD in that town.
I think people have a right to be outraged in this case. This one really looks like a grand jury/prossecutor cover the cops. Ferguson didn't appear that way to me at all because the cop in question acted in an appropriate manner.

This cop didn't act in an appropriate manner, and it resulted in a death. That's not cool and I don't care what color the person is.

Choke holds are famous for killing people, that's precisely why they're barred. They're legally indefensible, and the city is going to loose their arse in the civil suit.
