Plenty of cases around the WORLD, where somebody has died after having to be restrained. There was a case in the US where a guy who wasn't being violent or aggressive, other than perhaps verbally, died after being physically restrained by 2 security guards. As the guy was white and the guards weren't, no fuss or riots over it.

Unfortunately, but alas not surprisingly your views and your knowledge on the subject are detached from reality, officers are fully trained in restraint techniques and how to monitor and ensure the safety of those placed under restraint.
George was, in the eyes of the law a petty criminal he did not deserve to be murdered. He has become a focal point for the historic ill treatment, racism suffered by the black community in the US
I can give you first hand eye witness testimony of this happening when a colleague of mine having both been out for dinner and a few beers were walking back to a hotel in MSP (the hewing) was stopped and searched for 0 reason whatsoever
You want to start a thread about the mistreatment of whites by the police have at it.
