When They Tell You To Put Your Hands Up, Put Them Up!

If you check Youtube or Failblog or any number of other sites you can find hundreds if not thousands of videos of idiots being Tasered. The ridiculous thing about all these videos is the the police tell these shit-heads at least 30 times to comply and they just don't.

People, what is it about a cop yelling "lay down on the ground or we will taser you!" that you don't understand? Why would anyone ignore a cop screaming at you while holding a fucking thing that looks like a phaser from a 80's scifi TV show? I just don't get it.

Actually I do get it. People are idiots and cannot be expected to properly respond to even the simplest orders. Take this guy, Utah's Bruce Harper for example.



The Davis County officers are being sued now, because they tasered this dipshit 6 times after they asked him 60 times to stay in the car or to get on the ground. Now granted maybe tasings #3,4,5 and 6 were excessive, but this ass-wipe deserved1&2.

Even more idiotic though is that this jerk was pulled over for a crooked license plate and didn't just stay in the goddamn car, he wasn't even inebriated.

Just Stupid.

One of the best examples of "idiots that get tasered because their stupid" is the case of 72 year old Kathryn Winkfein in Travis County Texas. She is pulled over by a Travis County cop for 60 in a 45. She then refuses to accept or sign the ticket which is required by law in Texas and results in arrest if you refuse. She then gets out of her car to argue with the officer. He tells her to get back in her car and to step back away from him or that she will be tased to which she stupidly replie "I dare ya". Just watch.



Why did she get out of the car?

What the fuck is wrong with people?

I seem to remember a my father telling me when I was about 12, "Son, pick your battles and know when to shut up." Not like he ever did, and I certainly failed to remember this sage advise a time or two myself but really when they tell you to put your hands up, put them up because like my grandfather who was a high school principal once told me, "Do you know what the bullies in school grow up and become? Gym couches and cops." My grandfather also gave me this jewel as well, "the average IQ in this country is 80. Most of the bullies in my school have below average intellegence."

Do you think he was trying to tell me something?

With all due respect,
