MORE Taser BS

This is why we need to nip this taser crap in the bud here in Canada before it ends up like the police state to the south:

When they start this sh@t with wives and daughters (and our favourite SP's) I get really pissed.

The asshole cops should have been charged with assault. It is not enough that the bastard resigned.

Did you also notice that the asshole shot her from behind? Cowards!

Now, I expect tboy, true to form, to come to the defense of the assholes who very obviously abused their authority and possession of the taser.
 
This new Taser fad is not going to stop until someone wins a huge settlement.
Unfortunately, no one's got the balls to stand up against the police force...
 
Shit, am I going to have to start bringing up reviews from 4 years ago too?

This one is so old it's got wrinkles.....
 
Don't tase me, bro!
 
Its not so easy to sue anymore here in the USA. Takes money to file a case, takes money to hire a lawyer. Then more than half the time the case is thrown out before ever going to a jury. Then if it does go to the jury, half the time you lose. Then if you win, the other side can appeal it.

The people the cops are abusing have no money, unless they get hurt very bad, few lawyers will step in and take the case without 1 or 2 thousand dollars upfront.

Or you're suing McDonalds because their food is fattening...lol
 
but in the US, can't you file a lawsuit on, I think it's called "contingency" where the lawyer takes on the case with the fees paid by a percentage of the settlement if and only if you win?

BTW: I think all legal suits should be handled this way, would prevent many frivolous lawsuits....

Yes...but the lawyer does not HAVE to take your case !

More and more lawyers are asking for some $$ up front to cover their cost for filing the case...fees have going way up the past few years.

The only times now its like that is if you have a open and shut case...if the lawyer thinks so...it still happens but not as often.

Lawyers have been burn before by taking a case and then the client does not even show up in court the day he should. Case then gets thrown out.
You don't like it, find another lawyer, good luck.
 
This is way the drugies get treat like crap. The cops know a lawyer won't help him unless he has a very good case---like a video tape.

Even then, cops know he might just be in a crack house the day he should be in court.
 
Think how it is.

Many people who get abused by the police have no car, no drivers license, are undependable.

For a lawyer to help these people, he needs to be doing very well $$$. He needs to pay the court the filing fees for the case. Work on it by writing many pages of papers. Gets pictures taking--not cheap. Having the client see a doctor, often 2-4 times--not cheap again.

Then on court day, he may have to pick the client up himself or pay a person to bring the client to court.

These young lawyers starting out, have not the money to do all that.

Thats why if you have a thousand dollars or 2, it goes a long ways to help you, 1 find a lawyer who will take your case. 2, be able to win your case.

Many don't see a doctor right away, then they have no prove they were injure
 
the reason that your handcuffed is that you have done something wrong or are presumed to have done something wrong...therefore any sensible person would and should have the smarts to co-operate with the police - if the cops feel that a taser is their best way of controlling you than so be it. so many people have sued police forces in Canada and America when officers have used necessary force to make an offender comply- why should this be any different. remember people...these officers ( who protect your family and friends on a daily basis) are risking their own lives to make ours safer.

the people that want to outlaw tasers are the same tree-huggers that want the cops to fill out 5 hours of paper work every time they unholster their firearm. that makes a lot of sense - so now johnny law needs to think about 5 hours of paperwork before he approaches a car that he has pulled over for suspicious activity. I sure would not want to be the cop that has go up to the drivers side window with no gun drawn and having no idea what awaits him.

Maybe its just smarter to not live a life of crime
 
And don't do drugs or drink too much.
 
McDonalds because their food is fattening...lol

That case I believe was thrown out.

And the old lady getting burn by the very hot coffee, that was years and years ago.

Whens the last time you hear of another person getting big bucks.

She was hurt very very bad too.

Anyone that joined a police service know in advance that they will be risking their lives and they also know how much they will be compensated. If there are other aspects about being a police that they don't like, they can always find another line of work. Unless they are worried that they might get tasered once they get to the other side of the blue line.
