If it were my grandmother? Those three cops would resign and move away. Probably their Chief too. Maybe the Mayor.

Last week in Ohio, an police used a stun gun on an 11-year-old girl in Cincinnati after she was accused of shoplifting from a grocery store. Between that event and this one, the police are stopping some serious criminal activities. Thank goodness for tasers.

Wow. So most people know what a Taser looks like? Well sure, if a cop is pointing a weapon at me that looks like a brightly colored gun, I would assume it was cool-aid in a Dixie cup.

Yeah, they didn’t know her name.
But it’s a good thing you were not first on site, you would have shot her dead.

Or if you are almost deaf like me you might get shot in the back 4 times.

Maybe she should start those free ESL courses .... probably less painful.

I’d be willing to be tapered. What's your actual shape right now?

They were obviously in imminent danger.
P.S. A lot of people from the 'old country' like to eat dandelions with vinegar and oil. My aunt did? Why? That was what they had to eat in the 'old country'.

I read quite well, you miserable codger. There’s nothing worse than a sanctimonious Christian.

I heard this story on the news last night and considered if my grandma were alive today she'd be in big BIG trouble. She always walked with a steak knife in the garden. Great garden tool. We always joked "oh, there's grandma with her knife!" I even have photos.
Martha was picking dandelions. Most people would love to have someone pick dandelions AKA weeds from their manicured lawns. Martha knew the health benefits of dandelions. She was only doing what old timers did.
Why didn't the cops get a translator? Do they think everyone speaks English in America? LOL
To: Scarpetta
He knows zero about the circumstances of this woman, including when she got here. And thought it would be a good idea to tase her again. Hes an ass.
To: All
And of course, there’s some on the thread excusing what those three animals did.

I believe being shot by a taser is part of their training in its use.
Seems they could have done a little more to resolve this without force- maybe a pantomine of putting the knife down.

It was hyperbole. Lighten up. Some people are so quick to be offended.

Ive traveled to probably 20 countries. the word NO is universal. She knew they wanted her to stop. No sympathy.She's 87 years old and you assume that she actually heard them? I am sixty and legally deaf and even with the best hearing aids that money can buy I have trouble understanding conversation in many environments. But as other have implied, this is not about public service, rational thought ,or anything other than LEO getting home to their families.
To: Scarpetta
You’re just disappointed they didn’t just shoot the old lady.
