Listen again to the cop. He told the driver that he passed a sign and that there was another one about a mile back. This was the second sign and thus was not a speed trap as you are suggesting.
Was there actually a sign a mile back, as the trooper states? Did the driver turn onto the highway beyond the first sign? If it was not a speed trap, then the motorist had nothing to complain about. However, the sad fact is that speed traps are too prevalent in most states. Unless you live in a big city and don’t own a car, you will see one sometime or other.
The part I like best is where people say the Officer Gardner should have wrestled Mr. Massey to the ground, to place the cuffs on him, instead of using the taser.
I guess it’s a forest and trees thing.
Another favorite is those who say that if their wife had a gun, she should shoot the officer, should they resist arrest and be tasered.
Listen to Mr. Massey. No, really. You better listen to him.
Because he said so. He said, “NO, I’m NOT. I WON’T.”
He said, “I’ll tell you what we’re gonna do. We’re gonna go back there and you are gonna show me...”
He said, “YOU need to calm down”.
He said, “I don’t know what you are doing.” Repeatedly while the officer asked him to put his hands behind his back, turn around, and had a weapon of some kind pointed at him.
For trying to be the ONE IN COMMAND, to TELL others what they were going to do, Mr. Massey seems awfully ignorant of the basic facts of life.
