Idiot for the day


Some people are too stupid, and Nolan Feeney has a Time article about one of them:
The man who filmed a video of a New York City police officer apparently using a fatal chokehold on a suspect was arrested on gun charges Saturday night, an NYPD spokesman announced. Ramsey Orta (photo, right, with Al Sharpton) was allegedly carrying a stolen, unloaded semiautomatic weapon when he was arrested in Staten Island on a charge of criminal possession of a firearm.
In the video that Orta filmed, Eric Garner, who was arrested for selling loose, untaxed cigarettes, can be heard saying, “I can’t breathe” as officers wrestle him to the ground. A medical examiner ruled that Garner’s death was a homicide, and that the officer’s chokehold, a move prohibited by the NYPD, was a significant factor in it.
“I felt like they treated him wrong, even after they had him contained,” Orta told Time about Garner’s arrest.
Orta was carrying an unloaded semiautomatic weapon that was reported stolen in Michigan in 2007, police said. Orta is also in the hospital undergoing treatment for a medical condition.
Rico says what medical condition, congenital stupidity?
