So you are capable of nuance, using a 3-syllable word like “contribute.” Did the cops who restrained his breathing until he was dead also “contribute” to his death?
Small minds look for simple answers. I could say that Kim Kardashian killed Eric Garner – if she had only called him up and asked him for a date that day, he’d have missed his “appointment in Samarra” altogether. But it seems more reasonable to blame those cops … and also retarded right-wingers whose inhumane attitudes foster bad cop behavior.
