The police force as a whole in america is just descending into a third world cesspit, what is it like a person a day dying from being tortured with a tasor for example

i dont know you as a poster to joke around so where'd you get that statistic?
virtuoso:
Sure, Amnesty International USA reported in 2006 over 150 deaths by tasor rising to over 300 last year. Now I know there is this idea that tasors should only be used as a last resort by the sad and damning truth is they are being used conventionally now as a first line of defence. There are some cops who you could point are just panicky and are too quick to resort to it but we have been numerous examples of people being tased repeatedly for really any kind of crime, disturbance or outspoken protest. The fact is that once you tase someone you send 10.000 volts racing through their body, you don't need to keep on doing it and yet there are literally dozens upon dozens of videos showing just that. I am not suggesting that all cops are bad but there is increeasing lawlessness Lawlessness to in the sense that from what I have gathered, many of these cops caught are let off when they themselves should be facing criminal prosecution but instead the force seems to protect their own and therefore it's condoning the actions whether approvingly or just indirectly through looking the other way.
Sikotic™:
Maybe these dumb motherfuckers wouldn't die if they didn't resist arrest. Not saying it's right, but if a cop says he's gonna taze me, I'm gonna settle down.
virtuoso:
Maybe you are right but instinctively I for one would not just bow down and lots of people it seems don't. At the end of the day these cops are supposed to work for us, we pay their wages and yet they become mad with power, they abuse their position.
Real American:
The people in those videos attacked the police and resisted arrest. How else do you expect the police to react?
