But why appease the cop when the cop is in the wrong? Maybe to avoid the pain for the time being, but these cops don't have the right to just taser people whenever they feel they aren't commanding enough respect. Such ego is a dangerous trait when you have a gun and a sense of being above the law. Just ask the electrified cherry tomatoes if you don't believe me.

I just have to tell this. Here in my hometown, an entire family was arrested and the father tased. One of the sons observed an officer speeding and followed him to see where he was going. The officer pulled in a fast food joint and started in. The young man informed him that he had been speeding. The cop arrested him and he called his mother who came to the scene with the young mans teen aged brother. The officer began verbally assaulting the mother and poking his finger in her chest so the teen began to yell at the cop to stop hitting his mother. He arrested all 3 and hauled them off to jail. The father was then called and he came out to the jail and wanted to know what in the heck was going on. He was tased and arrested, too.

I used to drive an ambulance. The paramedic regularly would want to stop for a snack on the way to calls.

power corrupts. . . .
