Today Tasers, Tommorrow Phasers!
11.17.04 (9:00 pm)   [edit]

Ok, this taser thing is getting out of hand.


With the invention and use uf tasers, police now have a non-lethal way of incapacitating criminals. Less police get injured, less bystanders are at risk and less criminals get shot dead. Sounds like a great means of restraint for all involved. As a matter of fact, the company's stock has skyrocketed and even split twice. But the liberal judges and jurys won't have any of it. In Bethel, Alaska a jury awarded a man one million dollars for getting tasered too much. He was drunk, beligerent and resisiting arrest. But his lawyer convinced a jury that the use of a taser was excessive. I wonder what the lawyers cut was? 40% ? Hell, considering that crooked town, I wouldn't be surprised if the judge got a cut.


A few weeks later... near Anchorage. Police are called to a school about a disturbance. It seems a 12 year old female has gone wacko and is cutting herself. I don't recall if it was a knife or a razor. Anytime someone gets close, she cuts herself again. A policeman tasers her. Now the public is up in arms over the big bad police tasering a child. Of course the tasering resulted in her NOT cutting her own flesh any more, and allowed the police and paramedics to control her and the situation. But the evening news ran the officer through the ringer.


I'm so sick of these liberal idiots. Maybe the police should have waited it out until she cut herself so much that she passed out from the loss of blood. I guess that would have worked! Maybe the drunk (from the first story) was tasered too much. Maybe there needs to be better training of officers of this new arsenal. But a million freakin' dollars? Where do I sign up for excessive tasering? I could and would endure it for a MILLION DOLLARS!


Before tasers, either one of these incidences could have ended much worse. But in both cases, the perpetrators were controlled and noone else was hurt. Why is that so hard to freakin' understand????


Now personally, I'm not at all afraid of being tasered. Why? Because I am a law abiding citizen. That's right, I don't break the law! The press is on some kind of crusade. But what do they want? To ban tasers? To drag officer's records through the dirt? Maybe they just don't want any laws at all? They surely don't want abortion laws or gay marriage laws. I guess it's civil liberties at all costs!


These lawsuits are exactly what's destroying this great country. "OK, I was drunk and out of control, but that's my business!" Give me a break.


Well, that's my rant for now. Until next time, see ya.
