I'm not sure what the patriot act has to do with police officers removing a trespassor from private property. Maybe you could fill me in on that one?

uhhhh.....he was laying on the ground AFTER he got tased.

you tell me to stand up after you tase me for no reason, i tell you to go fuck yourself.

he was already leaving prior to the cops making it an issue.

Obviously you didn't watch the video. He wasn't tased for "no reason." The police officers attempted to secure his cooperation by requesting it, he refused and instead screamed at them.

Last week a 92 year old woman shot 3 police officers.

But the circumstances of this story are pretty crazy. I've read that the lady had been protecting herself due to recent spats in the neighborhood. She shot the three police officers while they were executing a search warrant at her residence. The search was a mistake and they went into the wrong house and when they came in she started popping.

Not to say that she was right but it's not like she was just sitting there tagging cops with bullets.

Very true. I just wanted to make the point you never know who has a gun- or their intentions.

actually i did watch the video. did you read the article i previously posted a few posts up?

here it is again, in case you missed it the first time.

he was leaving when a cop decided to expidite the process by putting his hands on him. he tells the cop to get his hands off of him, and this ends up with him being tased.

"get up or you'll get tased again."

sounds like he was on the ground AFTER he got tased.

Yes, and then he refused to get up... after he was tased.

Disobeying a police officer is stupid. Stupidty should be punished. It's just a young punk with a chip on his shoulder for authority figures.

Had he cooperated, or hell.. had he either produced the ID or gone to get his ID and followed the rules, would he have ever been tased at all? Nope.

and it was incredibly stupid for the cop to tase him in the first place. thus someone's probably going to lose their job, and someone else is going to get paid very well from this ordeal.

he was already on his way out (possibly to get his ID, even) when they tased him, so yea.....that was pretty stupid on the cop's part.

LMAO @ getting up and being cooperative after getting tased for no good reason
