The NYPD, seemingly determined to double down on violence against black people after the post-chokehold death of Eric Garner, apparently used the banned tactic again on a seven-months-pregnant woman after she grilled on the sidewalk in front of her home this weekend.

The New York Daily News, which published several photos of a police officer wrapping his arm around 27-year-old Rosan Miller's neck as Miller's young daughter looks on, reports that police found Miller preparing food outside her East New York apartment building Saturday, "in violation of local law." It's unclear exactly what ensued, but Miller, her husband Moses Miller, and her brother John Miller were all arrested — Rosan for disorderly conduct, Moses for resisting arrest and obstruction of justice, and John for harassment and obstruction of justice.
Former city councilman Charles Barron told the News he contacted police to "expedite" the Millers' release:
"This was all over a grill," Barron said. "This is about grilling in front of her house."

"Grilling. Barbeque. In front of her home," said former city councilman Charles Barron at a news conference today. "Not committing any crimes." Miller was charged with disorderly conduct, while her brother and husband were accused of resisting arrest and obstruction.
"I was so shocked," said Miller. "I was asking, What's the problem, and he didn't explain." Barron added, of the officer involved, "We want him out of our community. This is not the first time he has harassed us."
While Miller appears to have something in her hand during the struggle, the full circumstances surrounding the arrest are not yet known as no video has been released. But following the death of Eric Garner in Staten Island, this does not look good.

This is ?
No charges were laid based on them breaking a law prior to the police harassment
Every charge is due to then resisting arrest, well what the ? was the initial arrest for then? They were trying to detain when no crime was being committed, when there was resistance they throw the book at them
The Libertarians might be onto something -
And Yes, that's her daughter in the back watching her mother get assaulted by a cop

The clearly racist cop, just wanted to ? with them. The family were minding there business, having a good time. The racist cop, could of just calmly approached them, then explained to them, it was against the law, handed them a ticket and kept it pushing.
I gurantee you, the cops approached them aggressively... -
My comment will appear if it is approved? WTF.

It's really time for us to start a protest against the NYPD. Sucks I don't live in NY, but that's what needs to happen. If a protest doesn't happen, then the same ? will continue.
