Re: cop going to far
The cop acted completely unprofessional and obviously unethically, like most cops do.
The cop was in absolutely no personal danger other than pulling the man out of the car and using a TASER on him which exposed the officer even closer to the traffic that was very close doing 60+mph.
Jet is right, TASERs have killed many people. These things are not to be used in any situation. As a matter of fact they should not be allowed at all. It is the same as playing Russian roulette with someone else's life. Is that okay? "well this guy isn't giving me his ID and registration fast enough... I think I'll risk killing him for not complying fast enough!" Is this okay... honestly? Why do we the people give the cops this authority? Oh that's right.... we don't.
Goatblower, with all due respect, you are completely wrong. Cops deal with assholes just like everyone else in the world. Why should they get special treatment? They don't "put up" with shit, they picked the job. If they were naive enough to think that they were going to be "helping the community" and everything was going to be perfect, they should be the ones getting electrocuted.
Of course it is proper to be polite to an officer that is communicating with you, which the guy in this video was trying to do. People do not pick the job of a police officer because they think it is a friendly job. But if you are a police officer and you cannot understand that the man does not instantly have his ID and registration ready you should consider offing yourself from the world. If this guy was getting his ID and registration ready when the cop was walking to the car this douche bag probably would have just shot him anyway. The guy was breaking an insignificant law and attempting to assist the officer and the officer risked both of their lives by not only pulling him out of the car, but then again by using his TASER. Is that really okay? Should we be so intimidated by the police that we have to have a script ready to read off to them when we get pulled over so we don't get electrocuted?
The whole time I was hoping a semi was gonna hit that fucker.
Honestly I do not hate many people, but fuck I hate cops.
And no I'm not some guy who is pissed because cops put me in jail for stealing a car while high on crack and ended up killing 3 people. I very rarely get in trouble (see: caught) and when I have gotten in trouble it has been for very minor violations.
