Missouri Senate votes to ban police chokeholds
A bill that would ban police chokeholds in Missouri and allow Kansas City police to live outside the city passed the state Senate on Monday. Senators voted 30-4 to send the measure to the House.
Believe it or not it's a sad day that this has passed. this is an effective tool to use and actually keeps the suspect safe. It lessens the chance of a situation getting out of control. Therefore keeping both the suspect and the officer safer.
