You should see what happens in mexico if you refuse to cooperate the first time. Or better yet try south africa.

No no...remember, for the sake of convenience we assume that bad things don't happen outside of America. The other countries have rivers of chocolate where it rains candy and the kids run around playing with gumdrop smiles...

or something like that.

Like I said, I never strongely dissagreed about the use of the taser in this video, because I (or anyone else who watched the video for that matter) because we lack the personal obversation of the situation. Now that you will find out more about it. I understand the cops positions.

And I'm not cop hater FFS.

I missed the part where the woman did something worthy of such a takedown.

I missed the part where the woman followed the cop's clear and precise orders that she would be tazered unless she immediately exited the vehicle.

I watched the entire clip(s) which wasn't provided before. Their use of force was excessive for the situation. They should have had more patience.

People get tasered for a suspended license? Where's my Ice T CD?

Go quote someone else if you're gonna argue with the people thinking that she deserved it. I don't share that opinion.

Just a few of those in there for good measure, so I can be cool like you.

Well first of all you have no fucking clue what she did to get pulled over. Perhaps you might want to factor that in.

lol
That's what I get for taking the middle ground. Why don't you bitch to GONNA or somebody.

And yea, it's only use folks in the USA that seem to be insensitive to violence on these forums. The threads from all other parts of the world are always so much more appropriate and considerate of the feelings of all parties involved. We are just hardened like that.

oh, so when I'm amazed by the attitude of replies of some people I'm taking the moral high road? I'm glad that I'm still sensitive for cop-related violence, I'm glad that I don't live in South-Africa or Colombia where the cops also have to take extreme cautions and measures in their daily routines.

Now I have to read the rest of this thread before posting more comments.

tnf wrote:Plus, I am pretty sure a lot of that screaming was just her excessive nature anyhow. That lady would have put on a show with screaming and moaning if they had done nothing but gently put her in handcuffs. Granted, she was probably not feeling too hot, and I think the initial screaming was definitely the result of pain (and probably of surprise and shock - pun intended) but the way she kept carrying on made me think of a 2 year old that really has no reason to cry, but is going to do their damndest to keep trying. Or perhaps she's just loud naturally.

gawd, you americans are really fucked up

You have to admit that something like this would never happen in your country. But not because the police in your country would use excessive force, but because no one in your country is that fucking stupid to disobey a cop.
