I just saw an article online. Since the paper came up in an Adobe Reader, I can't link it, but here's the story:
"TX, Orange - A 46-year-old man is dead after police officers stunned him with a Taser while trying to arrest him.
The unidentified man was found at the home of an elderly woman after she made a medical alert call, The Orange Leader reported.
Medical personnel called police after arriving at her home and seeing the woman screaming for help. Officers found the man on the floor and the woman in bed.
The suspect resisted and officers used their Taser stun gun to stop him."
So... my question is do you think it's police brutality is using a Taser gun against an individual who was "on the floor", or is this the fault of the individual for resisting arrest?
This elderly lady (myself) wouldn't have been screaming for help...except maybe for help in cleaning my bed up from what was left of this guy. By the time the cops got there with their taser, my problems (and his) would be over.

I was thinking the same thing. *chuckle* I mean, she had every right to shoot the guy dead.
'zackly. In fact she'd have saved the taxpayers a butt load of money regardless of the outcome, whether in lawsuit defense for the PD, or keeping his pathetic ass alive in prison. (Or, worse, the social cost of him being tried and released to hurt others).

You can't be serious?
I've read of a few taser deaths....several turn out that the person had some rather harsh drugs in their system (meth etc.) that contributed.
Certainly, I would prefer they stopped using Taser's and just shot the guy dead.

Thats the police version of the story . Doesnt mean its true.
However their version is accepted by every white person here.
Tasers like everything else this militia has is used to abuse people .
If the guy was black they will be fine its okay to kill him .

I am not white, I prefer the police use their billy clubs and beat him into submission... so much more humane than tasering the guy... we should go back to the old system...too many people complaining about the new system...

The clubs wouldnt kill him. These tasers seem to be used and abused for the slightest reason.
Why must we pick between beating with clubs or killing with taser ?
You mean there is an alternative that saves time, lives, and money faster than a club or taser? You mean criminals will obey to simple commands before the use of force? I seen many times on live TV where the officer ALWAYS asked for the criminal to comply and they never did... it always resulted in force... thinking about it... it takes only one time for you to die... if you are going to arrest a criminal, would your life be worth less than taking necessary precautions... what if the criminal had a knife and was going to stab you when you get closer... are you willing to risk your life or are you going to use whatever is necessary to subdue the criminal? I rather the criminal get hurt then me losing my life... If the criminal complied with instructions, do you think it would resort in force? You are putting too much trust in a criminal that is NOT obeying your command to give up... and that trust will end up with you losing your life...
