Quote from Max E. Pad:
They arent supposed to just start throwing punchs, even if a person is resisting arrest. They are supposed to figure out a way to detain them. And in this day and age when they have all kinds of new toys to put someone down you mean to tell me that the best decision was to beat the guy within an inch of his life as opposed to using a tazer or mace? Give me a break.
In the post you just quoted me on, I pointed out that in the police report, the officer explains that he made attempts to taze the trucker, but his tazer wouldn't work.
Had he tazed him, you and Lucy would still be saying that was bullshit too.
What besides a tazer, is a cop to use? Should he have brought out the baton?
If the officer would have began the arrest with solid well placed pistol slap, that may have simplified the entire ordeal. It would have probably saved the guy from a lot of other injuries too.
But no, cops can't pistol whip like they used to in the old days.
Now-a-days these cops can't do much without getting a brutality charge against them.
Have you ever tried to wrestle someone with genuine tard strength, Maxi?
If so, please share your expertise, so we can learn something from it.
I'm really curious, What would you have done in this same situation?
This ought to be good.
