Well, you know, technically, she'd already lost it once before...

Maniacal power-starved loon of an Officer arrests and tazers a 68 year old woman...”

Maniacal power-starved loon of a poster prepares to lynch police officer after hearing only scant evidence and only one side of the story.

And now for the rest of the story. There is an individual that lives at that house and has been incarcerated most of his adult life for for robbery, it is more than likely her son. I posted all this info the other day. The horn honking was more than likely a signal that the cops was in the hood.BTW, the 2 convictions of robbery was 2 seperate occasions, he went to prison twice.Also, this lady is 5'5" and weighs 160 Lbs.

Well, the link takes you to a T.V. station which you probably don't get since I'm sure you had all your metal fillings replaced with non-conductive ceramic.

I have maintained for years that a car-horn should be required to be wired in series with the brake lights so that it will work only if the brake pedal is fully depressed; it was originally required to alert drivers of horses from a distance, I believe.

“And now for the rest of the story.”

LOL, there almost always is (more to the story)! These reactionary cop-haters just can't wait for the truth when they've got the smell of blood in their nostrils.

is your first name Boot, or jack boot? ;-)


Your response is identical to a socialist who has been brainwashed in public schools, who is mesmerized by police (or anyone else who tells you they're an authority) and crouches down to anyone in your sweet, savior papa govt.

Thankfully, it's apparent that most freepers see right through this garbage and oppose it. carry on!

Did you get in on the Salahuddin thread? I exposed what we were dealing with on that one also. One thin I have found, Muslims love to use alieses as much as possible and also using the same common name in the family and I am not talking last names, they sort of combine them so you can follow the family klan if you will.

Where's the other thread? I seem to remember you doing some good work on this subject elsewhere, but can't find it.

Had he resisted arrest, yes...but he did not.

Whoa pardner...It's a reference to Zappa....Just a joke.I don't question your patriotism. But your wording leaves something to be desired. Get a grip. This is FR, and if you can't take a little ribbing, well....

well then by all means, any American whose family member has been in jail deserves to have their mother tasered and terrorized by a power-starved jack boot thug for honking a car horn. maybe they should have hogtied and clubbed her, too!

after all her alleged son has a rap sheet. i don't see anywhere that says the police were there for the ex-con. Also, the officer was put on leave- the police dept themselves are taking action on this and disciplining the guy, which just goes to show the irony.. that for some reason, you are immediately blindly loyal to this cop (grasping for straws of justification for tasering old women) even though his OWN DEPT isn't! eegads!

now what is the reason for such an immediate strong defense of these tactics? do you just like this kind of stuff, or what.?

You are barking up the wrong tree mister. I am one of the first here at FR that will denounce JBT's. There is more to this story than I care to divulge. And I will not.

My wife had a somewhat similar experience less than two weeks ago. She works in a hospital laboratory, and a policeman was let into the lab, a secured area, at about 11:30 pm by a hospital security guard. The officer then selected my wife and demanded some laboratory results on a patient that had been admitted earlier and also the name of the technologist who had run the tests.

My wife told him that the tests were only diagnostic and hospital policy is not to give them to law enforcement because they're not terribly reliable (the officer wanted blood test drug results) and would have to be reconfirmed with additional testing. In addition, the hospital doesn't have the stringent chain of custody required for use in a criminal case.

The cop claimed to have a subpoena which he thrust in her face. She tried to read it but he grabbed it back before she'd even gotten to the second page and threatened to arrest her.

My wife said that she wanted to call her supervisor to get permission to give him the information that he wanted. The officer refused to identify himself or even whether he was a local policeman or Texas Ranger, or one of the other assorted police agencies we have in this state. Instead, he spun her around and handcuffed her. He marched her off to another room where he kept her for over an hour, while others in the hospital tried to find someone who would make a decision.

My wife is not a supervisor and her name was not on the subpoena, and frankly, I'm pissed as hell. I'm going to get to the bottom of this, and when I find that officer's name I'm probably going to sue for false arrest and file a criminal charge of official oppression. This is America, and the cops are supposed to protect us, not abuse people who aren't even suspected of a crime.

And what the hell was the rush? It's not like a trial was starting in an hour. It was the middle of the night.
