Original Note:
The post is purposely misleading. Penny stood trial and was acquitted by a jury of his peers. He did not kill a "homeless Black man". He immobilized someone who was threatening to kill innocent people on the subway, including a mother with a young child in her stroller. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/daniel-penny-acquitted-nyc-subway-chokehold-case-join-vance-army-navy-game-2024-12-13/
