A western Pennsylvania university student will serve five to 23 months in jail for grabbing a police officer's Taser gun and shooting her with it while she was trying to arrest him.

Twenty-year-old Jeremy Spisak, of McDonald, was sentenced Monday after pleading no contest in January to disarming a law enforcement officer and other charges.

Affirmative action? "Spisak was arrested when another officer subdued him with "HIS" Taser."

If you ever see male cops get in a fight with a suspect and a female cops is there, watch how the female holds back and flutters around the edges while the males do the hard work. But hey, affirmative action (used) to ensure that we are all equal.

Yeah, it would have been much better if he's used her own gun on her.

That may be where we are going. After all, the government seems less and less respectful of its Citizen’s rights; the “standing armies” of LEOs are how they’re going to enforce their will.

I mean honestly, take a look at the GM bondholder case; they were denied legal recourse for the violations of their supporting [bond] contract; basically the government said “We did it `cause we can! Now screw off!”

That was a short article. I was sure there was going to be beer involved in there somewhere. No way would I shoot a cop with their taser - I’d expect to be shot if I did.

I agree completely. They are used way too often and on people who can easily be overpowered. I don't think it will be long before they are all pulled.

Just another “fun tool” for the authoritarian oriented in our society.

I agree, except that tasers should be outlawed permanently across the board. They are potentially deadly weapons!

Tasers don’t kill people, people kill people.

(hasn’t Rush taught us enough about the dangers of anthropromorphism with his SUV stories?)

The War on drugs, click it or ticket and Madd laws just to name a few, ensured that when the time comes, someone like Obama would have a force full of socialpathic thugs who will gladly follow any order.

The “law enforcement officer” (barely contained laughter) should have her badge taken away for PERMITTING herself to be disarmed. How many male cops would let this happen to them?

It's true. I've seen what you describe dozens of times in NYC. Only the dykes have stomachs for the action. And those are very rare.
