It came out, finally, today on CBC Radio One, that this poor crazy man was "threatening" the police with a stapler at the time that they tazerd him... MULTIPLE times -- a fucken STAPLER.

Yeah, people who take a job which consists of threatening people into obedience to standards over which they have no control tend to be violent human beings. Blech.

Did he say: "Don't tase me bro!" by any chance?

Maybe they lost his luggage or something. Trying to think of a good polish joke..I'm not really sure if I've ever heard one though.

Is there any possible reason why a person should need to be tasered multiple times? Taser him once so he drops his "weapon", then grab him and slap the cuffs on while he's stunned. Seems simple.

There was a big hubbub around here where cops were arresting this guy, basically for being a Pagan (the bike club not the religious beliefs) as part of a crackdown on the gang, tazed him 3 times even though he was unarmed, then shot him a couple times in the chest with a big boy gun and killed him. The officer was later cleared of any wrongdoing in the shooting by the city.

And yet people still haven't figured out that the police are a bigger danger to citizens than gangs are.
