Driver Tased For Asking Officer Why He Was Stopped, VIDEO

[Breukelen advocaat]

That driver should get fined $1200, and lose his license for two years. He was probably speeding, and when caught was totally uncooperative with that cop, who was only doing his job.

Next!

That being said, did he really deserve a fucking TASE?

[LaidZeppelin]

there used to be some other people a long time ago who were just following orders...they were called nazis. This is unexcusable in a "free" society. The officer is pointing his taser at him as soon as he gets to the back of the car. this is not procedure.....dont sign your ticket, you get treatened with taser...it disgust me that some people condone this behavior. This is what happens in a police state not the United States of America. if this officer isn't fired I wont be suprised because this is the trend. Its fucking scary

On a busy highway more/less resisting arrest........pretty obvious what was going to happen next.

BEWARE: If a cop tells ya to stop and points a tazer at ya....don't walk away. Put your hands up and say, "Don't taze me bro!".

Have a good one!:s4:

If you watch the video, man refuses to sign ticket at which point the cop says "you are under arrest" (cop has no choice if Einstein refuse to sign ticket) man refuses to turn around ( cop wants to see his hands, officer safety issue) and start walking
away, that's "resisting arrest".

Driver is a moron, with an attitude problem.Who doesn't now the law.

I miss the good old days before tazers, when they would just smack these clowns upside the legs with a good old piece of pine.

What does this incident have to do with Politics? It's hardly even worthy of the category of Current Events, but that's the best place for it. The driver broke the law, several times, and there is nothing remotely "political" about it - whether he wins in court or not.

I agree, Breuk. I'm moving this to Current Events. I think he put it here because he sees it as a comment on our shrinking freedoms. I still maintain he needs to go travel the world so he'll see the other half of that proposition, the freedoms we enjoy here as opposed to those in other countries of the world.

Family Shocked, Outraged after Deputy Shoots Pet Dog in their Yard [align=left]Nate Eaton
KIDK News
Wednesday, November 21, 2007[/align]

A Teton County, Idaho family is outraged after they say a sheriff's deputy tried to murder their dog in their own front yard.
The Barboza family has owned their dog Bobby for five years. A few days ago they say a Teton County Idaho Sheriff's Deputy knocked on their door demanding to see the dog.
Leonel Barboza, Dog Owner: "He says, 'I'm here to put him down. I'm here to kill him.'"
The officer told Leo Barboza there had been a complaint Bobby had bitten someone.
Barboza: "I said, 'Do you have any proof or anything?' He says, 'I don't need any proof.'"

So Leo got the dog while the deputy pulled out a rifle from his car. They walked a few feet from the Barboza's home where Leo's wife and his three year old son were inside.
Leo and the officer tied the dog to a pole when the deputy fired three shots. The dog then collapsed. Leo's son heard the gunshots and opened the front door. Meanwhile...
Barboza: "A bunch of kids just got off the bus and they were all on the street. All the kids were watching the officer shooting the dog. My heart was broken seeing an officer killing my dog."

The deputy then got in his vehicle and drove away leaving the dog bleeding profusely from his head almost dead.
Barboza: "I came back inside with my wife and hid. We were hugging each other crying about our dog because we were gonna miss him. He's been with us for five years."
That night Leo's father-in-law, who witnessed the whole thing, had a nervous breakdown and had to be hospitalized. When the family returned home from the hospital a few days later, they were shocked to see their dog alive.
Barboza: "My wife called me up and she's like, 'Hey, the dog's alive!' I was like, 'What are you serious?' I was happy my dog was alive."
The Teton County Idaho Sheriff wouldn't say much about this case except that it's still under investigation. He also said there's been numerous complaints about the Barboza's dog. But when I checked court records, I could only find one complaint filed last year and that was dismissed.
Nate Eaton, Channel 3 Eyewitness News: "Did your dog ever bite anybody?"
Barboza: "Not to my knowledge. No."
Eaton: "And this was the first time you'd ever heard of any complaint?"
Barboza: "Yes, this is the first time. I still think about it. You know my kid thinks all the cops are bad because an officer came and shot his dog. Honestly when I think about it I get mad too and I don't trust that officer any more."
The Barboza's took Bobby to the vet. He's now on medication to get the wounds taken care of. The holes in his head will be sewn up after Thanksgiving.
The family has hired attorney Josh Garner. I spoke with him this evening and he says, "If the facts are as they appear, the deputies behavior is disgusting, troublesome, and appalling. The officer needs to be held responsible."
Several sources say the officer is still on duty and still working in the county.

Those teton sheriffs are fuckers, I have had plenty of harassment
from them..

Def dont think the tase was neccessary

[Reefer Rogue]

The officer is a pussy, plain and simple. He needs to hide behind his badge, with his gun and his taser to feel like a big strong man. He probably got bullied in school, like most of this cops. There's absolutely no need to tase him, what so ever. Use your hands, use your handcuffs. Use your other training besides electricuting people. It's just another example of the police abusing their powers and oppressing non violent civilians. They sicken me. He won't get fired, he'll get a big pat on the back from his fellow cronies. A 'job well done' Another 'bad guy' taken off the streets and now the world is a lot safer =/

Land of the free? Absolutely farcical.
