Default What Do You Do With A Drunken Sailor?

I think it was a big mistake to give cops Tazers.



Better that than to have the cop shoot him. I guess this is
just more of your braggartly scorn for non-lethal means of
incapacitating an enemy or potential enemy.



No Doug...It's proven cops are trigger happy with Tazers.

One here last week blasted the wrong 300 lb angry black man and today
the DA dropped charges against him. He's going to sue and get millions.
A guy driving by saw the whole thing. Any time a cops feels the least
threatened he is happy to tazer which BTW has killed 100's. BTW it was
a little 5'1' female rookie cop. Fred Weary is one of the nicest family
man type person you would ever meet.

Then top it off with turning loose a dog on the fellow just seems a bit
over done. If a cop can not bring down a 21 yo drunker sailor without
more than a baton then they should hand in thier badge in shame IMO.

HOUSTON Fred Weary's attorney says the misdemeanor resisting arrest
charges against the Houston Texans guard should be dropped.

Weary was shot with a Taser and arrested after a traffic stop on
Tuesday.

Weary's attorney, Charley Davidson, made his comments in an interview
with Houston television station K-R-I-V.

According to a police report, the 29-year-old Weary was pulled over
near Reliant Stadium after police said they noticed him "looking very
suspicious."

They pulled Weary over when they noticed the car he was driving didn't
have a front license plate.

Police say the 6-foot-4, 308-pound Weary angrily asked why he had been
pulled over and refused commands to step outside of his car.

He was shot with a Taser after stepping toward the officers when he was
ordered to put his hands on the vehicle.

Weary returned to practice Wednesday.

acts in your country. ;-o


Horse thief, not car.
