Do you have anything to say about what I posted, or are you going to make it about me?

It wasn’t necessarily an arrest at that point. As part of a Terry Stop, the officer may place a person in handcuffs. This would have been legitimate if Vasquez was being belligerent.

What has this all have to do with this incident? Of course the old guy wasn't belligerent. The old man was attacked....Pretty GD clear. No? Did ya watch the video?

Then ya go on to cite case law?

??

Come on...

This was just another clear assault by another agent of the government. Plain and simple.

BTW, I've seen you on here before blindly supporting law enforcement when they're clearly being unreasonable and out of control.

You missed the whole point - the car did not need an updated sticker - it was a dealer car - (try reading the article) - so there was NO LEGITIMATE reason to stop him in the first place -

in the second place, after the man told him what he should already have known - and pointed to the dealer plate - the wet behind the ears 23 year old rookie, with his rap music cranked, escalated instead of backed off.

Fortunate for all concerned, the elderly man didn’t break a hip when falling - nor have a heart attract due to the tasing - This little punk with a ‘shield and a gun - and a taser’ needs to have his jackboots taken away.
