Is this sarcasm that i'm missing? Eric Garner was killed by an NYPD officer in 2014.

On July 17, 2014, at 4:45 p.m., Eric Garner was approached by NYPD plainclothes police officer Justin Damico, in front of a beauty supply store at 202 Bay Street in the Tompkinsville neighborhood in Staten Island. After telling Damico and other NYPD officers, "I was just minding my own business. Every time you see me you want to mess with me. I'm tired of it. It stops today!",[41] Garner raised both arms but was then put into a chokehold from behind by officer Daniel Pantaleo, in order to be subdued. While Garner repeatedly stated that he was not able to breathe, Pantaleo and other officers struggled to bring him down onto the sidewalk and have him put his arms behind his back. He died a few minutes later.[41][42][43] The police waited seven minutes before giving Garner cardiopulmonary resuscitation.[44][45] Use of the chokehold has been prohibited by New York City Police Department policy since 1993.[46] The NYPD later arrested Ramsey Orta, who is now in Rikers prison, and is the civilian who recorded the video of the encounter.[47] The final autopsy report in Garner's death showed that he neither had drugs nor alcohol in his system, nor did he sustain head trauma.[48] The autopsy suggested that his obesity and other health problems, combined with his combative arrest, may have caused his fatal heart attack.[49] As a result of Garner's death, Police Commissioner William Bratton ordered an extensive review of the NYPD's training procedures, specifically focusing on the appropriate amount of force that can be used while detaining a suspect.[50]
