Geraldo Rivera weighed in on the Staten Island grand jury’s decision not to indict an NYPD officer in the chokehold death of Eric Garner.
Reaction to Rivera’s take was mixed:
@GeraldoRivera I have respected you for years, but you sound like a nazi. And just how are you supposed to file a complaint? Have you tried?

@GeraldoRivera what good is filing complaints when cops are getting away with murder?

@GeraldoRivera NY case and others that have made news it seems reluctance to cuff up when asked. But over zealous cops must be dealt with
