Cop tazes teen for being hypoglycemic

[blkgiraffe]

What the hell is with everyone saying "It was a mistake!" or "Cops aren't perfect!".

These are peoples lives being harmed here. People are being killed and injured left and right due to the ignorance of law enforcement. Where do we draw the line??? As I stated earlier cops are trained to kill.

I believe in order to become a cop; one should not only have a college degree in criminal justice, but also being educated in sociology and psychology.

You can't fix stupid. Someone crashed a car and was incoherent. Might those two things often be seen in tandem? Like maybe one contributed to the other? Total lack of situational awareness.

The symptoms mimic other things. If he were unresponsive,I would actually go through the steps of CPR.l
1st step would be to see if he had a heartbeat.

Are cops trained in CPR?

very true, and that was pointed out earlier. and yes cops are trained in basic first aid including CPR certification every two years.
