Stephan,
I saw that incident and it was uncalled for, but what got my attention is a heckler at a Hillary speach over the weekend. Hillary was being heckled at a speach and security grabbed the guy roughly and he resisted being touched. I was ready for a taser incident when something amazing happened. Being the former first lady, Hillary is entitled to Secret Service protection, and after the rent-a-taser guys started grabbing this guy, what looked like a SS agent came over and calmly looked in this guys eyes and talked calmly to him. He appeard to say "it's all right". SS agents being some of the best trained law enforcement in the country know how to difuse a problem and NOT MAKE IT WORSE. The protester calmed down and the situation was difused. If you get a chance take a look at the video.

I wonder what he really said...
SS-"Look buddy...You've seen the drill...You act out you get tasered....We're not as nice.....So unless you want the taser up your a$$ I suggest you calm down"
Man-"Ok sir"
SS-"Ok, it's all right"
Rob,
I think you're wrong. Go look at the tape. I think you might be a knuckle dragger so go look at the tape and maybe the next time someone disagrees with you while you're on patrol, you'll know how to handle it without reaching for the taser.
Another good one is the Utah trooper that tases a guy in front of his wife and child. This has to be the all time, take the cake for bad, low level LE types. He even lets the cat out of the bag when he explains to the other officer why he tased the young man.
Trooper "He wouldn't sign the ticket".... "I'm just not going to go there so I tased him".
Awsome, way to go trooper. Not only are you a coward you're a lazy government worker to boot.
There's a new twist to these types of incidents and it's that people are trying to call for help from the police (Stephan, Utah guys wife). You guys should be proud that law abiding citizens are becoming more afraid of you than the criminals.
If any of the bullies with badges want to get ahold of me please call Pat 952-451-5706 and let me know just how tough you are.
I believe strongly that it is immoral, and needs to be illegal, for an officer to tase someone who is not a direct physical threat to either the officer or another victim.
Pat it was a joke...I was referring to YOUR incident...Not the one Stephen posted....Looks like your humor bone is connected to your neck bone which is connected to your ass...
Now how stupid do you look putting your phone number and asking cops to call you...I mean really does that make you look any more tough than you already pretend to be?
In regards to Stephen's incident the cop that tased him should be fired and prosectued.
There is a lady police officer in Minnetonka with pimples all over her face.
Pregnant woman in OHIO gets tasered for no reason by low IQ law enforcement type. Way to go guys keep up the good work!
