@Sturgis,
You cannot point out anything untrue in any of my posts.

Wrong again. When I am confronted with an error that I have made, I acknowledge the error.
Sturgis wrote:He said that there are no statutes anywhere which prohibit police officers from using a chokehold.
A point which is entirely correct. There are indeed no such statutes.
Sturgis wrote:I politely indicated that the NYPD banned this, made it illegal for any of their officers to use this.
The NYPD lacks the power to make anything illegal.
Sturgis wrote:oralloy denies its having any validation.
Well, it doesn't. Not when the question is whether choke holds are illegal.
Sturgis wrote:I figure if 49 states passed a law, he'd claim that a 50th did not and so for him it means nothing.
"Whether it meant something" would depend greatly on the circumstances of what was being discussed.
