Chatsworth officers threatened by an 87yr old woman who could barely walk...from a distance.

[doorgunner69]

the woman should have complied even if she didn’t understand English.

If she could not understand them, how the hell would she know what they were telling her? Maybe thought they wanted some dandelions as well?

Actually, lucky for her she was not shot on the spot.

Buy a bag of salad at Kroger next time.

“See’s seeing us, she hears what we’re saying, she may not know what we’re saying, but we’re telling her to stop and there’s a Taser pointed at her and there’s a firearm that’s unholstered there. Most people, that’s kind of the universal command for stop,” he said.

Wow. So most people know what a Taser looks like? I don't. Most people know that an unholstered firearm means "Stop"? First I've heard of it. Most people who do not understand English understand English?

[Mariner]

It’s like they thought a 87yr old woman would understand they thought she was a threat to them.

Shameful.

[Governor Dinwiddie]

The real question is what is a muslim geriatric doing walking around Atlanta? How did she get here and how is she scamming our social services system? Probably should have lit her up again for good measure.

“See’s seeing us, she hears what we’re saying, she may not know what we’re saying, but we’re telling her to stop and there’s a Taser pointed at her and there’s a firearm that’s unholstered there. Most people, that’s kind of the universal command for stop,” he said. He added that using a Taser was the “minimum force.”

The woman was 87 and there were only three police officers. Of course they were scared.

And they wanted to go home to their families.

“Buy a bag of salad at Kroger next time”.

You must think she deserved to be tasered.

[Flick Lives]

The caller, who described the woman as wearing a “Muslim hat-looking thing,”

—

That “Muslim hat-looking thing” on her head is a babushka. My Grandma use to wear one to keep the sun off her head.

You’re an ass

[100American]

Obviously they do, and so does poster Governor Dinwiddie above who I am sure would be squealing like a stuck pig if it were his family member who was assaulted by police

By Your words shall you be known

Maybe they should be tased so they can find out how fun it is, especially at that age. Lucky for the cops she did not have a heart attack. Then I am pretty sure they would chime in and say she got what she deserved

Sick

[Josa]

I’ve traveled to probably 20 countries. the word NO is universal. She knew they wanted her to stop. No sympathy

[Socon-Econ]

Bet her family thinks they’ve hit the lawsuit jackpot. For the right jackpot, I’d be willing to be tapered.

[Taylor42]

Chicken $hit cops!!!

[Safetgiver]

Buy a bag of salad at Kroger next time.....YA nut. It’s from Mexico. No bags of salad ever! Never.

[dragnet2]

Martha Al-Bishara, no speak English?

Why not?

[wastedyears]

I hope she and her family sue them personally, then subsequently own everything they have.

[Scarpetta]

Why is he an ass? Questioning the influx of geriatric immigrants from third world countries who have never contributed Dime One into our system, when you know they are getting every conceivable entitlement benefit under the sun is not out of bounds.

[Do_Tar]

Hint: If a cop is pointing anything at you drop the knife.

By the way, a Taser pretty much looks like a gun.

Just for you: An unholstered firearm is really code for “rush towards me and show me that knife”.

Bishara

Not an unknown name in Muslim terror.

Sirhan Bishara Sirhan

Charles Bishara Bishop - terrorist who flew a plane into a high rise office tower. (NOTE: Current media accounts have washed the Islamic name out of the story; the Fake News Press now call him "Charles J. Bishop" to hide the family history.
