Watch This Dumb Bitch Get Tazed

[GoldenDelicious]

The officer is in a dangerous position to begin, standing alongside a car on a street where he can be killed by an inattentive motorist. He stopped a woman who was breaking the law and was uncooperative from the start. He did the right thing absolutely.
She was driving on a suspended license, speeding and uncooperative to the point she physically assaulted a policeman.
Policemen have a rough job and are under constant scrutiny. It is a thankless job. they are most often damned if they damned if they don't. I have family serving the public, I would expect the same from them. By saving their asses they are saving ours. Period.
Respect the badge, you don't have to respect the man. She was wrong.
LMAO at the rascist crap she whined too. Now police are racist for doing their job?

oh come on, mm! a dangerous situation standing on the side of the street, and so it was imperative that he tase her to minimise that threat? how about...moving to the other side of the car?

ive explained myself a few times already, so i wont repeat it again - ragardless of ht risks/danger etc inherent to police work, they have the training and equipment to have been able to have handled that way better, without use of the taser. end of story.

cheers

and aristotleBC, i dont like to bitch about america...its just that there are so many thing about america to bitch about!

To say that the officer was in danger in this situation is a little obsurd. Gambino made a comment earlier about how if officers dont do their job quick enough, their suspects may start to get ideas and pull out a gun or something.
I would doubt that this woman had a gun if I had been in the officer's shoes and conversing with her. And if she did have a gun, she probably would have used it long before he began to taze her.

You need to be able to give the people you are serving a little bit of trust from time to time even if it might add a miniscule-sized risk to your personal safety.
And to speak to them in a respectful tone is also important (which this officer did not do)

In every place all over America, businesses communicate using friendly greetings. When you go into a store and buy something from a clerk, you receive a "hi". When you go to an important interview, hellos and "how are yous" are exchanged.

Why do policemen skip over these pleasantries? I think it would help them out a lot of they were to drop a simple "Hi" or "Howdy" before they issue the ticket.

To say "Hello" (that word itself) takes a second, and makes a big difference in terms of relating to people.
Doing this could help bolster the image of policeman in the public eye, which would make everyone's lives a lot easier.

She was driving on a suspended license, speeding and uncooperative to the point she physically assaulted a policeman.

We really have no proof that she actually did this. Or Her swing may have been her trying to slap the officer's hands away when he was trying to take her phone.

'Another Taser-less Death'
Last weekend, a 56-hour standoff with a homicide suspect ended without fatality or serious injury when police subdued the suspect with a stun gun. Hovering on a construction crane, the man reached for some water when police struck with a Taser (Nasdaq: TASR).

Taser may not immediately come to mind when you think of making the world a better place. The company has been attacked by the media, Amnesty International, and others who claim that stun guns can be unduly lethal. What these groups fail to recognize is that stunning an individual has a far less chance of ending fatally than shooting him with a bullet.

Data from police forces currently using Tasers confirms this fact. In 2003, The Arizona Republic reported that officer shootings in the Phoenix area dropped nearly 50% in the six months that Tasers were on the job. At the end of 2004, the Cape Coral, Fla., police department reported 83% fewer officer injuries and 40% fewer subject injuries following the widespread adoption of Tasers. Tasers also proved to be safer than batons, dogs, and pepper spray (based on Cape Coral's savings in injury-related costs).

I wrote the above headline to help us go beyond the headlines: "Another Taser-less Death." From now on, I want to see more articles about lives that could have been saved if every police officer in every city had a Taser on his or her belt.

Talk to police who use stun guns. Talk to the people in blue who resolve conflicts on a daily basis and sometimes put their own lives in jeopardy. An overwhelming number of them will tell you that this is the best development in the recent history of law enforcement. But in our litigious society, driven by lust for the lurid headline, Tasers have been given a bad name, while guns continue to take lives every day.

The market has punished Taser recently, but I think the company will be back. Its product is too good for society to ignore.

The tazer is a good tool for policemen, but it should be used as a replacement for firing bullets, not as a means to bully people around and make them follow your orders in a more 'timely fashion'.

He should have used his pistol.

Ok...so now if we do not obey an "officers" command we get stunned...that is rediculous! This country is becoming more and more like Nazi Germany and less like America.

Yes. We have to have order. Are you afraid of getting tazed?

 

[biteme]

thats the risk the cop takes....and if he dies..well good...one less crooked cop on the street...one less dickhead to push people around to ease his big ass ego!

There are a few good cops out there but the majority are just plain dicks!

You expect to be taken serious with a comment like that? You are making yourself look ridiculous.

Ignorance knows no bounds.

Next time you get car-jacked, or one of your family members attacked -- call Gi Joe.

Keep viewing the world through your own limited experiences. You keep doing that.

my car was jacked and when i called the cops all i got was an answering that said to call back monday. then they basically did that routine shit and that was about it. Waste-o-time Then i get speeding ticket a month later where they had 6-7 cops just waiting all day, thats what makes me pissed. Seems like my taxes are supporting cops to write weak tickets and not actually help when i do need it.

Ummmm, sorry grasshopper, you haven't got a fucking clue what you're talking about. The U.S., aside from a few notable exceptions have some of the most polite & most patient Officers in the world. I've seen the police in action in Spain, Germany, France, Switzerland, & Austria. They are more pragmatic, less undersstanding. She was being pulled over for a legitimate reason & as a miscreant she could not be expected to do anything other than to obey.
Ten years ago they would have broken her arm trying to get her out of the car.

So the whole police industry, comprising of hundreds of thousands of men & women of different sexes, races, agencies, ages and values -- are all summed up due to your limited interactions with a few?

So the value of law enforcement all revolves around whether YOU get a speeding ticket or not? Maybe they should put that sideline in the next state session.

Ever sat down and wonder WHERE those speeding ticket fines go to? Ever think of who actually pulls the strings there?

You're yelling at the guards and ignoring the wizard who runs the kindgom inside the castle.

Then again -- with a tunnel-vision, biased, prejudiced outlook on life -- it's not surprising.
