Do you take the view that no criminal is ever rehabilitated?

Maybe the officer in question deemed the situation dangerous enough to use his firearm?

Oh.

So, it's okay to shoot a person instead of tasering a person as long as you don't kill them?

Speechless.

That's it, I can't take you seriously any longer.

That line gave me a hearty laugh.

Thanks.

Just providing a much needed mirror for your own moronic diatribe.

Speechless.

So basically you have no points to contribute or can't rebut my arguments?

Can't remember one instance where I said it's ok to shoot someone instead of tasering, merely said the officer obviously deemed it appropriate.

Can't remember saying that tasering a 16 year old girl is ok, other than the fact that the girl appeared to strike the officer first and the person who reviewed the incident said the officers acted appropriately.

Can't remember saying I agree with the tasering of a 10y.o. girl.

I don't think anyone on this board takes you seriously. You put forward no argument other than 'OMG, the sky is falling'. It's obvious you have an issue with police, why is that? It's also obvious that you have no argument at all other than a reactive rant to sensationalist media stories.

Maybe you could try addressing the points instead of giving up so easily?

Winning isn't the point, merely someone pulling your posts apart with comments like "Shower often?" and "Speechless" just goes to prove you have nothing to say, which you seem to think you do.
