re: #33 RadicalModerate

Gazing through some of the archived stories on the original suit - the original arrest was back in 2005 - there’s a significant amount of speculation that may well have been a “Driving While Black” arrest. I’m not going to go that route, especially given the fact that cops have been known to taser 90-year-old ladies at the drop of a hat.

OK Yeah. Must be rough for a cop to control a 90 year old woman that goes out of control. One would think a trained policeman could avoid that. I suppose that’s different then using old fashioned muscle power. I think the office on the scene needing to use a tazer against a woman over 60, unless she’s a muscle builder, to have weak upper body strength and shouldn’t even be on the force to begin with.
