word of advise, do as the officer says and you'll be fine
she cried like a baby, getting zapped isn't that bad
i dunno, that couldve been handled differently....i think he was too quick to use the taser

People like that are a big reason of why I've decided not to go into law enforcement ... I'd be far too hesitant to use any force initially, but once they got me going, I don't know how I'd keep myself from bashing her head in for being such an annoying f**k.
classic:
"ok, to clarify why i'm stopping you, you were doing 51 in a 35 zone, you have a broken windshield, you're not wearing your seatbelt and you have a brakelight out "
I'd love to be around the school department to hear what our officers have to say about this video (which, no doubt, the dispatchers have been playing non-stop).

If you watch all four clips, you'll see that from the beginning she had a major attitude and telling the cop that he illegally pulled her over and that the police "arrested her brother for no reason." So you could tell she had a major chip on her shoulder.
She didn't comply with what the cop said and he initially pulled her over for doing a 51 in a 35, she had a cracked windshield, a taillight that was out, and also she wasn't wearing her seatbelt. The cop called in her information and it came back that she was driving on a suspended license which is why he was trying to arrest her in the first place.
As mike said, do what the cop says and you'll be fine. He gave her 3 chances to get out of the car, and when she was resisting arrest, the officer had to subdue her to prevent further escalation of the situation. As far as I'm concerned, the cop didn't do anything wrong.

Quite frankly, that officer made the situation worse than it had to be.
He was unnecessarily brusque and little quick to pull out the weapon.
So long as he followed proper procedure though, he'll probably be ok.

you gotta look at it from his point of view, she was beligerant from the get go. how is he supposed to know she's not gonna flip out (which she started to do, even after he pulled the tazer out)
she was warned more times than she needed to be, and she still would not comply...she got what she asked for

Ding. He gave her ample verbal warnings and she refused to comply with a lawful order. He was attempting to place her under arrest and was giving her every chance to not have force applied. She thought she could bully him, she was wrong.
The worst part is that she probably didn't learn a single thing from it. She still sees herself as the victim of a beat-down by a racist cop. And she'll have no trouble finding an army of lawyers to take her side.
I think MORE of this stuff needs to happen. People have a dulled sense of reality when it comes to this and can't often see the officers side.
If you run from the cops and get shot (i think we should shoot all of them, but thats why we have elections to keep people like me out of office), tuff shit, don't run from the cops.
A cop wants to pull you over for BREAKING the law(s) and you want to have an attitude and be a bitch, you get tasered and hopefully it will teach you and others a leason.
People just don't like taking responsibility for their own actions and the court systems are a mess and plugged with stupid and frivolus lawsuits from shit like this.
You dont have to fear police officers. unless you are breaking the law, or are a person who cant think rationaly
The cop in this video doesn't know if she is a fleeing felon on crack, a normal person, or just someone who is iritated and thinks it racisim that broke the laws and not her. The officer has to keep his guard up for anything, she crossed the line by being non-compliant with a police officer and I'm sure he followed procedure. I like how she called them racists. that was funny.

Honestly I think the police officer did everything in his capacity in an attempt to do his job.
He asked her several times to get off the cellphone and she said "no, I'm making a call."
He asked her to step out of the vehicle and she wouldn't.
He showed her the tazer and told her to get out of the vehicle or she would be tazed.
At this point if I were in the car I would do as he said.
She refused and you can tell he hesistated. He said "this is your last warning" and then kept repeating for her to step out like 4 times.
She was also telling the person on the phone to come help her and describing where she was at.
I would have tazed her too because she refused to comply, she was beligerant, and having her give out the location and having this other person come could have increased the risk.
Listen to the training officer who said that the method the police officer used was probably the most safe for the officer and the woman.

I think I've also heard on the video and from other reports that she took a swing at the officer sometime before the first tazing or before they tazed her the second time.
oppps.................I confused my taser gun with my Glock...............oh well.

Grandma always said, "If you can't hear, you can feel". She took a swing at him, If a normal person gets swung on, He or she would fight back in efforts to beat the person down. Cops can't do that, and a lot of time they get ridiculed for what little they sometimes do. Hey, they couldn't whoop her ass after she swung, so in his own safety he did what he had to. The effects of a tase go away in 30- 60 seconds. IT takes 3-6 weeks for something like a broken bone to heal.
* yes there are the few and always will be that go too far or are just plane Effed up. I don't defend them in any way.
Oh and yeah, those 5 sec really do suck!

yeah cmon shes a bitch and driving over the speed limit no seatbelt and not complying...
i ran a stop sign on a 35 doin 60 and i was as polite and nice to the officer who pulled me over as i could be(when i actually pulled myself over before she even rounded the corner to turn on her lights)
i got off with a rolling violation, and she liked my car.
cops are cool, i dont like tickets but theres no need to be an ass about it to the officer when you know ur already stuck in the $#!thole

If I were her, I would certainly rather get tazed then get forcibly thrown to the pavement by a 180lb cop.
It may look like a bit much on that tape but I think the officer responded well. He can't sit there all day messing with someone that isn't going to comply. She needed to come out of that vehicle one way or the other. Maybe she should have put down her cell phone and got out on her own terms.

You dont have to fear police officers. unless you are breaking the law, or are a person who cant think rationaly
I guess you are assuming all officers are infallible models of citizen protection.
There are quite a few videos, and personal testimonies that show why average citizens, at times, have a justification to fear police officers. They are human and subject to their own imperfections and emotional stresses.
To think that this plays no role in their job, and no cop ever goes overboard or uses extreme force is idiocy. They have a gun, a stick & the training to knock you out flat in seconds, and yes, just like us all, they go overboard sometimes. Just with them, it means more when they do. Also, when it comes to their word vs. your word- you don't stand a chance (unless you have video backing you up and sometimes even that truth can be distorted).
To bring it back around to this lady, without being completely on her side, cuz I didn't watch every video. It looks like she was just trying to let someone know where she was & what was happening.
She has previous disenchantments with police and a sketchy situation close to her family (her brother being, supposedly, wrongfully imprisoned). The cop never notified her that he was taking her into custody and that her license was suspended until after she's been tazed... twice and already bloody & on the ground. He just told her to get out of the car (which does make it easier to get beaten).
It is very easy to not know your license is suspended. I know, cuz it happened to me. I sold a car out of state, and the new registering state never sent the proper paperwork to the current registering state, so that state suspended my license cuz they showed I never got the vehicle re-inspected and licensed.
If I was in my car & needed to notify someone of what was happening so I could have arrangements made, so as to be in custody for as little as possible, and I posed no immediate threat, and had some bad history with cops. I would be so pissed if I got tazed. He went too far, too fast.

Uh... wow.. yeah, she deserved what she got. She's overreacting on the taser, during a jail tour i did, the cop who guided us explained to us about the taser gun. He says you don't really feel pain, your body just locks up for a few seconds. Geez, he explained to her why he pulled her over and she was saying that it was "illegal" because he was driving??? I had to laugh when she called them racist... interesting video...

I think most people on here realize that cops are human too and if you piss them off they will hurt you. Whether that hurt is an extra ticket or physical pain, why go looking for trouble?

Generalize much? So what you're saying is that if someone is white and makes a good living, then they must be all for cops being able to beat down whoever they want, especially if it's someone who isn't white. Fuck you. lol.
I guess you are assuming all officers are infallible models of citizen protection.
Nope. I'm making a decision based on the video I watched.
...cuz I didn't watch every video.
Which apparently, you did not.
(her brother being, supposedly, wrongfully imprisoned).
How do you know her brother is wrongfully imprisoned, or even in jail for that matter? I think it was just part of her "oh poor pitiful me, the police are being mean to me" routine.
It is very easy to not know your license is suspended. I know, cuz it happened to me. I sold a car out of state, and the new registering state never sent the proper paperwork to the current registering state, so that state suspended my license cuz they showed I never got the vehicle re-inspected and licensed.
I missed what part of this story gives you the power to disobey the lawful order of a police officer performing his duties?
and I posed no immediate threat, and had some bad history with cops. I would be so pissed if I got tazed. He went too far, too fast.
Threat is in the eye of the beholder. The officer obviously felt that she was not going to follow his verbal commands and would continue to resist. She said that she was being placed under arrest before the officer tazed her. She knew exactly what was going on. The risk of injury to her is much less with the taser than if he decided to go "hands on" and wrestle her out of the car. From what I saw, the driver getting tased was the best way for that scenario to end.

Correct... but at this point you're just repeating the obvious
How do you know her brother is wrongfully imprisoned, or even in jail for that matter? I think it was just part of her "oh poor pitiful me, the police are being mean to me" routine.
Now you're just reinforcing my point of "their word vs. your word"
I thought this quote only applied to newspapers, but I guess for your viewpoint on the police it fits too, "If it's in black & white, it must be right."
(besides, I said "supposedly")
I missed what part of this story gives you the power to disobey the lawful order of a police officer performing his duties?
Don't worry, you didn't miss anything, because I never said that. I just think he went too far, too fast. The rest is inference.

you gotta look at it from his point of view, she was beligerant from the get go. how is he supposed to know she's not gonna flip out (which she started to do, even after he pulled the tazer out)
she was warned more times than she needed to be, and she still would not comply...she got what she asked for
34 seconds from the initial order to "get out" to being shot with the taser.
18 seconds till the next taser shock.
That's too impulsive.
You don't get to tazer people for being "belligerent". You don't get to tazer people 'cause they won't do what you want. If that were the case, why not let the cops administer a little "street justice" to the next wise-ass kid they catch vandalizing a school?
Other than yelling at the officer, before being told to exit the car that woman had complied (reluctantly, it's true) with every order given.
She pulled over when the lights came on. She closed her door (somewhat slowly, but she did close it) when told to. She handed over her papers. Other than being a bit confrontational, she hadn't presented herself as a threat before being tazed.
(I know, they claim she swung at the cop on the passenger side, but hell, what you would do if some guy started grabbing at you?).
I don't like to second-guess cops, most of the time, they are good people doing a job. But this stop was a bad example of what to do.
The officer was terse, constantly cut the woman off when she spoke, and did absolutely nothing in an attempt to defuse the situation.
What he did do was yank his weapon with little provocation and use it almost as a foregone conclusion.
-ajb
There is one point that I dont think hasn't been brought up, We cant see what happens inside the car, he pulled out his taser pretty quick for ?????? reason and officer #2 runs around the car and enters from the pass. door. She might have made the mistake of reaching for something real quick, officer pulss taser, subject becomes combative on second officer. She should realize she is lucky not to be going to the ER for lead removal. IMO she got what she deserved and a education you cant get in college.
As far as not having to fear police officers, there are naturaly a few bad apples, but its a low percentage, but then again, bad apples is all you here through the media. Cops are pillars of communities and everyone I know, loves their job and wouldn't trade it for anything. And untill you have walked in their shoes...........................

You learned didn't you? :D
Actually, whats wrong with tazing a kid in the dark, in the bushes, and carrying who knows what kind of potential weapons. Maybe if they got a little juice when they did something bad they might stop doing it and they might not wind up in jail like a bunch of the gang member thug types do. Again this is one of those, I'd rather be tazed than raped in a prison shower type things.
Short of the little probes that jab into your body, I think tazing is a pretty cool idea. Its not perfect but its better than being beat down or shot which are a cops two main options for dealing with you. Even if you didn't deserve it and the cop was completely out of line, which cops could be as they are human, you aren't going to suffer too many ill effects.
I tend to side with police on these things for the simple reason that they are human and can make mistakes too. On top of that, they are putting themselves into a dangerous position everytime they confront someone even on minor infractions. People need to think a little bit more about the cop when they get stopped and just cooperate. The second you get beligerant, he's probably wondering if today is going to be the day he gets shot on duty. Do you really want him wondering that while he's talking to you?

If we want to get critical here's how I see it.
The Officer is pulling a woman over for a routine traffic stop.
The woman has been speeding, her windshield is cracked, her tail light is out, and she's not wearing a seatbelt. So far it seems like she has a disregard for the law...
When the officer pulls her over she immediately opens her door.
(I've had Police officers pull guns out on friends who have opened their doors immediately.)
The Police officer does not approach the vehicle with a gun drawn and asks the woman to close the door.
The woman argues and does not comply untill the officer asks again. She complies, but she says she doesn't have to close the door.
At this point the lady is already a problem and the officer is being reserved, but you can tell that he is getting a bit frustrated because she keeps telling him he can't pull her over and starts telling him what she can and cannot do.
The officer tries to regain control of the situation by asking for the registration and insurance. He steps away from the car and she keeps yelling at him interupting him asking him for his name and unit number.
She then tells him what he is doing is illegal and then starts accusing him of being racist and continues ranting. The officer doesn't start arguing back with her.
The officer begins telling her why he pulled her over and then she tries to argue with him again, but he diverts her attention to the address.
He walks back to the vehicle and you can hear him talking to another person saying "She's fine she just has an attitude," to which she responds, "I can have an attitude." You can hear the officer sigh.
The arrest begins shortly after the officer calls for back-up.
The officer may have been a bit abrupt, but he was dealing with a lady who already posed a threat. She wouldn't comply and she was being verbally abusive.
The second officer tries to get the cellphone from her and she swings at the officer.
Now I agree that reaching for the cellphone may not have been the best thing to do, but they're dealing with someone who is refusing to get out of a vehicle and she swings at a police officer.
Officer McNavin shoots the lady with the tazer to keep her from hurting the other Offficer and to get her to comply.
I think the officer was pretty reserved and hesitant up untill she took a swing at the police officer.
She's lucky that the officer hadn't pulled out his gun when she opened the door. That could have been taken as a threatening action on her part and I'm sure in the long run it would have come out a lot worse.
She's lucky she's leaving with her life and a few scratches.

#2. It is obvoius since she passed him he noticed she was of non white oragin. Definate racism.
#3. He only asked her 3 times to get out of the car. Where is the fourth or fifth? He was being way to impatient.
#4 Racism.
#5. She only took a swing at his partner. She didn't actually hit him. :wtf:
#6. She was on the phone. Come on how rude is that to interupt someone while talking on the phone. He should have better manners than that.
#7. Do I need to say more?

He walks back to the vehicle and you can hear him talking to another person saying "She's fine she just has an attitude," to which she responds, "I can have an attitude." You can hear the officer sigh.
The arrest begins shortly after the officer calls for back-up.
The officer may have been a bit abrupt, but he was dealing with a lady who already posed a threat. She wouldn't comply and she was being verbally abusive.
The second officer tries to get the cellphone from her and she swings at the officer.
Now I agree that reaching for the cellphone may not have been the best thing to do, but they're dealing with someone who is refusing to get out of a vehicle and she swings at a police officer.
Officer McNavin shoots the lady with the tazer to keep her from hurting the other Offficer and to get her to comply.
I think the officer was pretty reserved and hesitant up untill she took a swing at the police officer.
She's lucky that the officer hadn't pulled out his gun when she opened the door. That could have been taken as a threatening action on her part and I'm sure in the long run it would have come out a lot worse.
She's lucky she's leaving with her life and a few scratches.

I think we are just starting to see the products of too conservative of child abuse laws. Granted they are there for a reason due to certain parents not knowing limits or how to raise children other than by physical force. With that said, We are getting to the point where people are begining to see the kids that didn't get their a$$es handed to them by their parents all grown up. I am only 21 so yes I grew up protected (most of the time) by these laws. But I think just about anybody on here above the age of about 28 can agree that a good a$$ whippin as a kid does serve a good purpose.
Again the disclaimer, this does not defend or promote child brutality or those who make physical discipline a bad thing.

You may have, but it seems like a few people here are basing their opinions off of just the main video.
It's obvious he was just trying to perform his job with an irrate motorist.
As for 05GLI, I hope you're kidding.

I'm kind of confused on the situation. If is obvious. The cop was wrong. She is innocent!!!
#1. He was in an unmarked car. If he was in a patrol car she would of never passed him.
#2. It is obvoius since she passed him he noticed she was of non white oragin. Definate racism.
#3. He only asked her 3 times to get out of the car. Where is the fourth or fifth? He was being way to impatient.
#4 Racism.
#5. She only took a swing at his partner. She didn't actually hit him. :wtf:
#6. She was on the phone. Come on how rude is that to interupt someone while talking on the phone. He should have better manners than that.
#7. Do I need to say more?
try it with PMO :D
