I’m still trying to figure out how this guy got pulled over. It almost looks like the cop pulled over to the side of the road, the guy went past the cop, the cop the pulled out and pulled him over. WHAT?! Many questions raised.

They are both complete idiots. The driver is an idiot for not signing and an even bigger idiot for not putting his hand behind his back when asked to do so three times by a man who pointed a ***** taser at him, man who has the authority to arrest non-compliant citizens and who is paid to do so. All the driver had to do was to contest the ticket and use the police video (made available to anyone who is in them) and win the case.And of course, the cop is an idiot because all he had to do was to club that douche in the back of the knees to prevent him from getting back in his car.

It costs $30k+ per year to jail a person.This means that for every person that they put in jail for smoking pot or other ridiculous offenses, they can hire another police officer

So…this kinda thing is “acceptable behaviour” by american police officers, supposed to be serving the public?And you guys still wonder why the Iraqis are still fighting your presence in their country? After seeing this crap, i wonder how your soldiers there are treating the general public.”Pain compliance” is a pretty way of saying “using unbearable pain to get someone to comply with orders”. Torture is another example of pain compliance.

I would wager more than 20%, yeah. How many are there because they drove their car drunk? They weren’t hurting anyone by swerving around, why bust the drivers with non-crashed cars?Everything can be boiled down to perceived prevention of harm. If public attitudes on drugs change, chances are that the laws will as well.

This tasering ***** is getting out of hand. Taserings I thought were supposed to be a last resort to them using their gun. In other words they have to be in extreme danger to use it. This guy didn’t look like he was going to fight, nor did he have a weapon. I’m of the opinion now that taserings should be viewed the same as a gunshot just not as lethal. If an officer tasers someone there should be a review, same as a gun.to sum it up:yelling or questioning cop != taseringpulling out a weapon or fighting physically with the cops == tasering.why don’t cops understand this? It seems more and more cops are less about protecting the people and more and more about protecting themselves and other officers in the good ‘ol boys club.Sorry about the rant, I know not all cops are bad, but it seems that way. It’s very easy to get disallasuioned with the police when as an example in the last month their have been two major accidents I’ve seen on the news in my general area. One involved a cop car the other involved a innocent civilian. In the civilians case there was 1-2 squad cars on the scene which I believe had ened in one or more fatalities. The other incident involved a cop car somehow flipping itself over while going around a corner (i believe they might of been nudged a bit but example still stands). Guess how many cops? over 20 squad cars, I kid you not. Stuff like that makes you think about who they are really out to protect.ok end of rant - I mean it this time
