Implications of "gravitational" waves

* As a recreational scientist, I try to discern physical properties from system behavior and to consider implications of such properties.  Recently I’ve been wondering about properties of space and concluded that it is not empty but filled with a highly resilient low density medium named aether, which is subject to geometric and electromagnetic disturbances which are propagated as waves.
* Physicists have detected gravity oscillations believed to have emanated from a pair of distant objects orbiting their combined center of gravity just before mutual absorption.  The effect is expected, since the gravitational attraction when the objects lie on the line to us exceeds that when the objects are transverse to the line to us.  These gravity oscillations wiggle distant targets including us, this being the signal detected by LIGO.
 *  The act of wiggling is a transfer of energy to the targets, energy that has traversed a great distance from its source.  The initial transfer of energy from source to its neighboring space (aether), must have impeded the source's motion.  That impedance or resistance likely accounts for the fact that the wave-producing objects approach each other and merge.
* A corollary of this logic is that all objects moving through space lose momentum as they do work on that space (actually space-filling aether) – so gravity should eventually collapse all matter associations suspended by momentum, ie planet systems, solar systems, galaxies and galaxy clusters.  Each collapse should result in an explosive release of matter clouds containing higher-weight atoms as is supposed for collapsing stars.
 *  These are the implications of gravitational waves.  But what is the interaction between matter bodies and aether that accelerates the bodies toward each other?  What are the properties and actions of aether that account for gravitational attraction, the acceleration matter bodies toward each other?  That's fun to contemplate.

Officer in Garner death

* On the MSNBC Sunday show, Al Sharpton usually addresses racial-justice issues responsibly.  Not so when it came to Michael Brown’s death in Ferguson and Eric Garner’s death in New York.  In these cases he incited resentment of police unjustifiably, excessively and regrettably.  Regrettably because resentment leads to contempt hence to crimes and their sequelae.  Excessively because Sharpton kept provoking his audiences already riled.  Unjustifiably because the officers in these two cases were not guilty of wrong doing – the shooting of Michael Brown was provoked and defensive; the neck hold on Eric Garner was not the cause of death.
* Each of these victims was breaking the law.  Each was very large and resisted arrest.
* Michael Brown assaulted then threatened his arresting officer and was approaching him when shot.  It is proper for a lone cop to shoot before closing with an oncoming belligerent.  The witness lied about the event.
* Several officers were needed to subdue Garner, each trying to control an available part, including his neck.  The neck-hold did not cut off Garner’s airway as evidenced by his continued utterances.  Heart-failure patients experience a drowning sensation ("can't breathe") during and after exertion.  The sensation supports the reflex response to exercise, that being deeper and faster ventilation to support exertion.  The sensation is due to lactic acid and carbon dioxide in the blood coming from working muscles (this together with diminished blood oxygen).  Another response supporting exertion is faster and stronger heart beats, signaled by sympathetic nerves and secreted adrenalin.  Likely Garner’s damaged heart, unable to endure the extra work, experienced ventricular fibrillation, which is lethal.  That is an ordinary heart attack.  In the brief struggle, the sympathetic stimulation would have been due to mental excitement more than the metabolite changes.  His heart probably didn’t stop due to pressure on the neck artery (carotid body), since that would render him unconscious quickly and would be quickly reversible.  In any case, his death was accidental not intentional.  
* Therefore, the officers involved in these two deaths did not commit crimes and should not be punished or hated.
