[QUOTE="donna723, post: 281272, member: 1883"] I think he went waaaaay overboard! All kinds of people get feisty and refuse to sign tickets. Tasers are only supposed to be used when there is no other way of subduing the person, when they pose a physical threat to others or to themselves, not just because they refuse to sign a ticket! Yeah, she got hateful with him, but she certainly posed no physical threat to him! I saw this on the news this morning and he said he did it to keep her from walking out into the road ... it looked to me like she was just trying to get to the drivers side door of her car to leave and he certainly could have kept her from doing that without subjecting her to strong electric shocks! At the prison where I work we have almost 1,500 convicted felons, some of the worst of them. We also have tasers. They are kept locked up and can only be used with the approval of the shift commander. And I think it says a lot that with a population of 1,500 convicted murders, rapists and gang members, they have not found it necessary to use the tasers in years! I don't even remember the last time they had to use a taser! And this guy thinks he needs to use one on a 72 year old grandma because she won't sign a traffic ticket? Awwww, come on! [/QUOTE]
