A better title might be "Crackhead stoned on crack dies from crack while in custody."

How about this one.

"Chicken ass cops cant control stoner so resorts to legal torture resulting in death”

Or maybe.

“Girly man cant handle the job, resorts to legal torture, 1 dead.”

But my favorite is this.

Candy ass cop who flunked high school wrestling, couldn’t handle a combative arrest, resorted to legal torture, 1 dead, faked autopsy report coming shortly.

But then the due process clause is as dead as the rest of the constitution so who cares. Lacking any training in how to physically control combative people it’s much easier to just zap ‘em to death. Why wait for a judge and jury to even decide if they are stoned let alone deserving of death by torture.

Am I the only one who remembers a time when fighting a cop resulted in a night stick in the ribs and a few bruises but we all healed up after the fact?

(1) Policemen are not allowed to punch suspects in the mouth or club them in the stomach anymore to control them. Silly, but that's the way it is nowadays.

(2) Being tasered is not "torture" anymore than your nostalgic nightsticking was torture.

(3) Cops are pretty good at determining if someone is on crack or not.

(4) Statistically speaking, one is much more likely to die from a crack habit than from a Tasering. Teh cause of death is not yet determined, but the facts will probably show that if she was not in the habit of smoking crack she'd be alive today.

Used to be..back in the old days...

Police stations had a mark on the wall at 6ft

If you stood there and did not measure up...you simply could not be a cop..

Nowadays affirmative action, equal rights, sexual preference are the new order of who gets in and who does not..

It's bascially a quality control issue...and the government forcing departments to take candidates it probably would rather not...at least until the time when the new order takes over management...and then tends to make sure only it's like kind gets hired..

The superior is cast aside for the inferior...it's all PC now.

Like putting women in combat

imo

She was handcuffed. I don't get how he couldn't control her.

Good thing he has a taser I guess. Maybe he would have shot her. Before tasers, what would this cop have done?
