    Not to overlook that the police asked him to stop and he ignored them. Seems that there are quite a few around who think that the police only issue "recommendations".

    Again...


    Ohio...


    A man running with others with not a single threatening thing in his possession, and a number for a race in his possession, on a planned and monitored running course being encouraged to continue by the other runners, with his junk hanging out in the rain... what cop in Ohio doesn't want that collar.

    If I had only known when I was younger that TASERS would be invented. I would have gone into law enforcement.



    If they do it twice will they both enlarge? Because just one would look kinda funny. Especially during half-time at the Superbowl! :D

    We are human beings, when are we going to start recognizing that fact, there is nothing wrong with running in the nude, or any other sport event, is it more polite to wear clothing of some kind, maybe, but considering that much of the clothing for many sports leaves almost nothing to the imagination, its kind of stupid.

    Idea: if someone was after me with a tazer, I might Boston Qualify! :D

    LOL.

    Seems a little over the top to taze her... Obviously none of us were in that situation, but making a cell phone call is hardly dangerous. But it got the job done efficiently and without permanent harm, so it is better than shooter her!

    It seemed sudden, but then I caught on that she was to be arrested. In that case, better safe than sorry. I also did not see what happened in the car and that may have been even more important. Bottom line is that ignoring a police officer pointing a taser at you requires a serious lack of thinking through the possibilities.

    That is just stupid. What kind of redneck morons do they have as cops?

    Who in the heck was this guy hurting? Especially since, in a better written report of it, the other runners were "shielding him from view" in the middle of the pack? Seriously.
