Did you have anything to say about the substance of my post, namely LE seems to be far too trigger happy these days?

I agree there. Far to many citizens shot, beaten, etc. for my liking. I have not experienced any of this, but I am an old white guy so it is less likely to happen to me.

OTOH, in this case the Tazer seems to be the correct weapon to choose. She must either sign or be arrested. She must get out of her car to be arrested. If she is refusing the police orders, it is perfectly legitimate to use force to get compliance. Neither pregnancy nor ignorance is a reasonable excuse for not following procedure. And, no each individual does not get to make up his or her own procedure for being arrested.

Thank you for posting reasonably on a FR anti-cop derangement thread.

You have served civilization and promoted liberty here today.

Thanks again.

Utter nonsense! There was zero reason to arrest the woman. They had her identity, and heraddress; simply mail the complaint to her home.

These officers at the very least should be terminated. I would favor prosecution is cases so aggravated as this. We absolutely do not need for police to do these things.

are these freepers defending the arrogant cops who threw a very pregnant woman on her stomach also the same freepers who will demonize abortion?....

I mean, if you care about the future of our culture, you better care about the babies and you better care about the abuse of the women carrying those babies inside...
