Well it wasn't a choke hold, but it didn't look like a good arrest. I didn't think anybody had Constituional Rights in New Jersey.
Life's concerns should be about the 120lb pack your trying to get to the top of the mountain, and not the rock in your boot.

Choke hold??  Whatever

UH you know what? I'll bet that policeman will be right back to doing his job soon enough. A white man has no rights anymore.

The officer said "he wouldn't take it anymore". That's absurd, take what? Someone observing with a camera? If the officer can't handle being observed while in public, then he should not BE in public. The photographer was charged with disorderly conduct. You have to ask, how can the simple act of observation be determined to be disorderly? What form of disorder does simple observation cause??? It's a simple question that can have no practical nor logical answer.

Since we did not see all the video, it is hard to say what happened before the clip started.

The most disturbing thing the officer said is " I can do whatever I want".  This is entirely the wrong train of thought for law enforcement.  As long as the officer is doing what is right he should have no fear of the camera recording the event.  The evidence actually aids positive sincere effort to keep the peace - that's why they have cameras in patrol cars.

 NO ... they'd have thousands of blacks marching and demanding he'd be crucified ! Look at when that group of low life trash ganged up on that lone white boy and almost beat him to death ... those " gang of 6 " scumbags got off and made bucu thousands of dollars !
