How to Survive a Police Chokehold

As a follow up to my post, Rudy Giuliani Confused, libertarian attorney James Ostrowski comments on how to survive a police chokehold (or a chokehold be anyone else)

I have had a couple homicide cases involving strangulation. Choking someone is much more dangerous than many believe. The more serious threat is a sudden loss of blood to the brain through compression of the arteries. This can cause death in 60 seconds, maybe less.

If you are ever being choked from behind, consider your life on the line and you must act quickly. The best move is to drop your body and try to throw the fool over your shoulder.
