COPS should NOT have to take a scratch or two. If society wasn't so fucked up they might not be as edgy in the first place. It's very simple if you get pulled over put your hands in plain sight make life easy on the cop and do not argue. If you are right get a lawyer and fight it in court. Don't be an idiot and argue with someone who has no idea what your intentions are. One on one confrontations never go your way. what do you think by telling a cop he's wrong, that he's going to "say oh... sorry have a nice day."

From watching every made episode on Worlds Wildest Police Chases and Cops I've seen some intense shit. Not assuming this goes on every minute of every day, but there is always a chance this could happen. Watching a female officer get her face beat in for stopping someone for speeding. Watching a cop get pepper sprayed by a woman acting similar to this idiot in the video. A whole pile of dumb shit people do


Role reversal -- the chances of being shot as a cop are much greater than winning the lottery, yet every day we all wish we could win, as all cops wish they can go home to their family.

How hard would it have been for that woman to aknowledge the cop or even say please give me one minute to finish my conversation. She was clearly ignoring them and had no respect for athority, so her intentions were clear, she wasn't going to cooperate and that was that.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed that. We're here arguing that the States are fucked up and overtly violent in general while the people who're arguing against it are going on about how if we were a cop in America we wouldn't want to take any chances either. Just seems to prove our point.

it was a "counter troll" in realtion to his odds of 99.9999999% of the time nothing will happen so they should be all warm and fuzzy to everyone. Even though there is a very high probability that you will not get shot, how would you feel having the trigger pulled every morning, how would you durring the time leading up to that moment. etc..

LoL you're an expert because you watch some redneck tv show?
And what the fuck are you talking about with the lottery? How is that a role reversal? NOBODY wants to get shot and EVERYBODY wants to win the lottery.
And finally, nobody is debating whether that bitch was dumb or not; she clearly was. What we're trying to make clear is that HE TAZORED HER BECAUSE SHE WAS TALKING ON THE PHONE.

Yeah this place is pretty fucked up, where some countries have so little violent crime it's amazing. What sucks is having your wife work in a really bad area, compound that with having her work late and leave the building alone after 10PM. It gives you a feeling of helplessness knowing that if something happens you are 40 minutes away and can't do a fucking thing about it.

I would love to wake up every day knowing that the worst thing that could happen to me is my allergies acting up because of all the pretty flowers, but I know that's not going to happen here.

No I'm not an expert, I was cracking on people who were experts because half their friends are cops, etc...

Second here you are trolling for an argument, if your country is so much more wonderfull than ours why are you so miserable that you need to expell your agression on an internet forum?

You should see what happens in mexico if you refuse to cooperate the first time. Or better yet try south africa.
both of those are essentially third-world countries where a handful of people hold/control all of the resources and the rest are left to fight each other over scraps in the gutter.

As I understand it, tasering is very painful, probably at least as bad as a similarly incapacitative beating, and although it may not normally do permanent physical damage, it does carry risks.
Hey dipshit, scroll up and watch the video, the entire video. The first officer tried to remove her from the car and she jerked away leaning further into the car. At that point the second officer tried to take the cell phone and she took a swing at him.
That wasn't clear in the original video, and it does change things though I still wouldn't endorse the course of action taken.

I don't think they had got to the stage where using the taser was necessary.

Certainly they shouldn't have used it twice.
YourGrandpa wrote:They tried to handle her once and that's one more time than they should've had to.
So they should have tasered (tased?) her straight away?
YourGrandpa wrote:I've been tasered (just to see what is was like) and it is incapacitating, but that's about it. There are no residual affect from being tazered, that stupid cunt was being very dramatic. As I said before, a tazer wouldn't harm a person with a pacemaker and I much rather be hit with that over pepper spray any day.

You should really try reading and paying attention a bit more before you type uninformed shit on the internet and claim it as your opinion..
That's not what I did. I said "As I understand it" meaning that I have a general impression from things I've heard or read, rather than a firm grasp or reference to reliable sources. I was open to people correcting me if they provided evidence to back it up. You haven't.

I don't see where you said enything about pacemakers before, you claim there are no residual effects but you don't even attempt to back this up. I don't know much about the risks of tasers but I am aware that it is an issue, and you're claiming it doesn't exist.

Again, as I undertand it, tasers can be set to deliver different strengths of shock. For example, one article I read when tasers were beginning to be introduced in law enforcement described how the tasers were being demonstrated to memebers of the press and so on, but at a vastly reduced strenth to what the officers would normally use.

So the fact that you were fine with your taser experience proves nothing.
