Pretty sure that, had the coppers known about the gaspack, they would have not used the taser, but there are surprises and then there are surprises. I see no problem with the response of the Po-Po.

| #12 @#9: Because I'm lazy, per Wiki: "A taser is an electroshock weapon used to incapacitate people allowing them to be approached and handled in an unresisting and thus safe manner." Pretty sure that, had the coppers known about the gaspack, they would have not used the taser, but there are surprises and then there are surprises. I see no problem with the response of the Po-Po. also rant off/ |

| #11 ditto #9, cops look real bad after the number of school massacres where they jus stood around then they shoot or tase some poor schmuck like this. but...there are too many really bad guys looking to unload on a cop so it's gotta be a real hard call. |

| #10 The reaction from the cop must have been priceless. |

| #9 @#7 I suppose I see the world differently. There's no victim here. The only witness is the State. These are bureaucratic crimes. If you don't produce a fishing license and run instead, should you get tased? I dont think so, I dont think these type of non-violent things should be met with violence. This notion that you have to do everything a cop says or get violently destroyed - I dont agree with, cops shouldnt use violence except when countering violence. /rant |

| #7 @#6: It wasn't the traffic violation that was the issue - it was the fleeing stuff. It appears the perp was burned out anyway... |

| #6 IDK Darth - Play stupid games, win stupid prizes. Should cops be allowed to be thuggish when perusing non-violent criminals? It was a traffic violation. Cops always seem to play hero when the perp is unarmed, contrast that with the most recent school shooting. IDK the answer - but cops making things violent when things dont start violent - i dont think this is part of the correct answer. |
