No one could take on a 95 year old man with a knife? Hit is wrist, done!

well jack kavorkian isn't available so suicide by cop i guess is the next thing.. 95 and a knife is the new fadd... lol RIP POPS..

Are you kidding me, a 95 year old man? One can only hope the cops are abducted by aliens and that taser is used as an anal probe!

Imagine the rage you would feel if that guy was your Grandpa or dad..

There is no rational justification for tasing a 95 year old man unless your life was immediately being threatened. a 95 year old man wielding a butchers knife is not life threatening, especially to a cop on a police force.

Why the fuck do these pigs even carry nightsticks? When was the last time a pig drew his nightstick before his taser?

There is actually another doctor that would help in the same way by the name of Timothy Quill.

You know, I have seen plenty of videos of police overstepping their bounds. And in reality, here is how "self defense" laws are written. In essence, to defend yourself or someone else. IF you happened upon police needlessly beating the shit out of someone, and you took a rifle and shot and killed both of them, what would happen? If it were a regular joe beating up a regular joe, you could get off, but I I doubt anyone doing what I mentioned would not be prosecuted. I don't hat the policemen, they are just dudes doing a job, but they need to start being killed at increadibly high rates. This will force them to back the fuck off.

For the sake of argument, in "escalation of force", taught by all police academies, you are trained to use your taser before your baton. It is considered 'potentially' less lethal.

I honestly couldn't say which I would rather. Being electrocuted or walloped with a metal object.

Right? At least with a baton, you can choose where and how hard to strike.

^ Obviously you have never been beaten with a baton. I got a "light tap" and it hurts like a MF. They will break bones. A cop pumped up on adrenaline will not check his swing. I say a taser is much less lethal.

Wrong. Been hit by one a few times. Not with any real intent, but because we were training. LEARNED how to use one proficiently though. VERY few baton blows will be lethal and NONE if you don't strike certain areas (save for dislodging arterial plaque and causing a stroke). EVERY taser use is potentially lethal when taking into account medical conditions, health, age, weight, and even the potential for hemorrhaging of the brain as a result of the sudden drop to the ground and/or convulsions..

EDIT ^^^^ You said beaten, and you are correct.

A knife can be tossed from 15 feet into your heart before you can move....even by a 95 year old.

Gotta agree. Been training in general Stick as weapon. If you notice, no one is clubbed anymore. It is more the Escrima style, glancing blow, for all the same reasons that is practiced in Escrima.

See the Rodney King beating tape again? Glancing blows for instant pain. He suffer not one broken bone.

No component (of law Enforcement) has reported any fatalities or significant injuries resulting

from the use of any type of less-lethal weapon. Additionally, we found only

isolated incidents of reported misuse of less-lethal weapon

This happened in a nursing home. Not only was a taser used, but also bean bag rounds.

Hell, why not a LAW rocket or something? Bring in the tanks, a 5 year old stole some candy! Those fucking toddlers can be ruthless killers, throw a mickey mouse doll at you and cause permanent blindness!

 

[silasraven]

dude it was his time to go. suicide by cop. this is the way he wanted it. otherwise he wouldnt have pulled the knife.

Could be true.

 

[Doer]

Or he simply could be batshit like me and demanding his carrots cooked more bouncy...

12 inch butter knife, Oh those POOR YANKY police officers must have been TERRIFIED! Good thing the 95 year old didn't spread anybody out with that thing!

no.. A dumb cunt who lacks control and is reckless will not check his swing. A person who has half a brain will.
Adrenaline doesn't equal "no self control". Americans are just Idiots, End of story. (not all Americans, but you know what I mean.)

What if the target of the shock is a cardiac patient? He then dies.
