DemonKnight Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 I havent watched the video. It seems to me that 3 cops would be sufficent to cuff and non-PCP afflicted "kid". One cop with a knee in the back and one on each arm. Having a 200 pound man put all his weight into the middle of your back with one knee hurts like hell. I dont know what the percentage is for heart failure to occur during a tasering of a healthy individual but it seems to me these cops are doing themselves no favors with the tazer first mentality.

Pope Flick Posted September 20, 2007 Share Posted September 20, 2007 (edited) If this guy had an accomplice with him who had been packing heat, that accompice could have shot kerry no problem. The cops first error was in letting him raise his hands and walk away from him once the decision to escort him out was made. In allowing him to act like a clown, he got emboldened to the point where tasering him (bro) was their final choice. Non-violent civil disobedience isn't about resisting arrest, it's about not giving them help as they arrest you.

montster Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 on tonight's "CSI," a cop tazers a guy, who dies. during the investigation, one of the CSI guys jokes, "don't taze me, bro!" made me think of this thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
