Cops love tasers.


glendale now- A domestic dispute that boiled over at a business led to a woman being arrested for disorderly conduct after she used a child as a shield against being Tasered.
According to Glendale police:
A 36-year-old Milwaukee woman was arrested for disorderly conduct/domestic at the service area at Andrew Toyota, 1620 W. Silver Spring Drive, at 12:15 p.m. March 24.
When police arrived, the woman was holding the hand of a child while shaking her finger in the face of her boyfriend, an employee of Andrew, while yelling, "Give me my weed back!"
She struggled with police, refused to give her name and held the child in front of her to avoid being Tasered.
The boyfriend said the two had been living together for a few months but when asked what the woman's last name was said he wasn't sure. He also said he didn't want her arrested but police told him, they had no choice.

Does anyone else think that cops are going overboard these days with tasers? It seems like cops should be able to arrest a lady without having to resort to zapping the shit out of her. It's just pure laziness. How did they ever get by without them? I think initially tasers were used as a way of subduing somebody who was out of control, which was much more humane than clubbing or shooting them. But tasers were only used in extreme cases. Nowadays, all you have to do is talk back to cops and you'll get 50,000 volts blasting through your balls.

ps. I love how this guy lived with the lady for a few months and had no idea what her last name was.
