This is a principle that used to be respected, but today, everyone seems to have some sort of law degree that disagrees with that. Don't argue with cops, argue with the judge in court. The cop will hurt you and he can't judge the case on the spot. She should have just bought Samsung or went to another store with a straw buyer. Don't resist arrest.
PS. Just as an aside, my daughter is a Sheriff Deputy that is working the Keystone Pipeline security in Texas. She is having a blast arresting these idiots imported from all around the country that have been coached on how to harass the police. She loves it when she puts them in jail and then they find out she works the jail after guard duty at night. They start to regret all the cussing and spitting they did the day before. LOL!!
“She was tasered for not following instructions,.... not buying IPhones. When you resist the cops, you get the cops. This is what they are for. If you are in my store and I want you to leave and you don’t, the cops will remove you.”
The question I have is, the article seemed to indicate that she had already paid for the iphone online, was she given the property she paid for? If not what is the procedure for obtaining that which you rightfully own?

This I think is a bit unfortunate, I think there are many cases particular in the small towns where the on seen police officer should be able to make a judgement on the spot. Most crimes are generally obvious(Even if this one wasn’t), if the officer is wrong than you can still fall back on a trial with judge or jury. But given the great costs of a trail, we should desire to avoid that as much as possible.
Police officers should not be “dumb” force, they should have minds & judgement of their own to help resolve simple & obvious cases out of court.

Not being a Mac fan I can agree with that. ;)
Please share. What does she do that is so funny? She would never be doing anything unprofessional or illegal, would she?
That ain’t funny, chuckles.
