These cops don’t understand officer discretion or bother to think about the public blow back and ramifications of tasing someone, hogtie them and then caging them, over a vaping incident.
Then throw in the fact no one was harmed by the vapor in an outdoor beach type venue. Some cops just seem to want to piss lots of people off. You’d think in this era they’d do everything they could to avoid these types of events.
And in spite of that reality on a conservative forum we have bootlickers who Say
Well it’s against the law....had it coming
Yeah, you’d think they would...
Some have probably just got the attitude that if people think we’re bad, we’ll show ‘em how “bad” we can be...
Backfires on them 100%
Wait!
No don’t, let me go and don’t tase me bro
Wait!
Wai-ai-ai-ait don’t tase me bro
Idiocy took me on (oh man)
You two came in and tried to restrain me (please please don’t tase me-e-e-e bro)
They’ve been waiting to take me on (oh no)
From the moment my eyes can see.
I had a word today-ay-ay
‘till they yanked out my mic away
Please don’t tase me bro YE-OW
If there’s a message, a message for me.
I’ve just got up there speaking to John Kerry
So-o-o patiently
Just took a mic and spoke to Kerry
Until the guards came in hastenly.
Please don’t tase me bro
Security please listen (listen)
I was given permission to speak yo (please please don’t tase me-e-e-e bro)
Since when is speaking a crime (oh no)
Since then I got tons of dissin’.
For many days I’ve planned it all-l-l-l
Felt the shock running in my brain
I couldn’t stop struggling ‘till the end
It’s gonna take me time for me to mend
Don’t tase me bro
Security please listen
I just need a ticket to ride back home (listen)
I’ve slept in a cell for some time
Once I woke up I’ve found a dime.
Hey brotha wait a second, wait a second, no don’t (Don’t tase me)
Wait a second, wait a second, no wait (Don’t tase me)
Hey brotha wait a minute, wait a minute, YEOW (Don’t tase me)
Hey brotha stop killing me, just please let me be.
Hey brotha wait a second, wait a second, no don’t (Don’t tase me)
Wait a second, wait a second, no wait (Don’t tase me)
Don’t tase me-e-e-e bro, listen (That hurts like hell, that hurts like hell)
Don’t send me to the ice, the prison isn’t nice.
Hey brotha wait a second, wait a second, no don’t (Don’t tase me)
Wait a second, wait a second, no wait (Don’t tase me)
Hey brotha wait a minute, wait a minute, YEOW (Don’t tase me)
Hey brotha wait a second, wait a second, no don’t
Hey brotha wait a second, wait a second, YEOW
No more idiotic than you whining about people vaping outside offending you
Grow up
I agree. Cops think there the kings. I hope all five end up with long jail sentences. Power trip is what this was.
The real criminals in D.C. must watch this stuff and have a big ol belly laughs.
Always guilt before innocence right? God I hope the left doesn’t do that with us in the near future. If they do we probably deserve it for not respecting the Constitution right here and right now ourselves.
When are we going to set the example of righteousness? Two wrongs do not make a right...
They appear to target White women, children and the elderly.
I don’t care that this happened.
All those cops ganged up on the boy for vaping. I condemn the city for banning vaping. I condemn the cop for shooting the taser.
The fault here is an unjust law that criminalizes a non-criminal action. By passing arbitrary laws they turn innocent people into criminals, fearful of running afoul of the law and subject to prosecution for normal, ordinary actions.
This is about government taking authority it doesn’t have and a stupid cop who reacts violently if you don’t comply.
Millions of dollars plus an apology for the boy.
That’s the kind of shit that makes people hate cops...mindless street muscle for filthy politicians and their evil, stupid laws. If I was a cop now (I was one in the 70’s) I would have said “have a nice day” and eff the smoking/vaping bans.
this is not taser worthy
OC used to be the whitest town in MD when I vacationed there in the 70’s.
don’t take me for a ditz. No I am not assuming such.
I agree the problem here is Freepersfrequently believe antiauthority means you hate cops and that is not the same thing by a long shot I actually like most cops I know and I know a lot of cops including cops I’ve had adversarial situation’s worth in my life and for the most part they were fair and respectful honestly there was one federal guy who like to wear his ball cap backwards who was a bit of an asshole believe it he came around once he got to know me
I’ve been antiauthority my whole life I think it’s healthy to at least be suspicious
“The fault here is an unjust law that criminalizes a non-criminal action.”
Just like that that poor big lug in NYC who was murdered by the thugs with badges for selling loosies of all things! But I think the Union agents are worse...they would kill for far less.
Vaping. Really?
When you enforce the law into the absurd this is the kind of thing that happens. Kid’s probably minding his own business vaping around. Taught to not respect the police or any kind of authority. These police ride by trying to enforce a statute.
It’s an inevitable outcome.
