In my opinion the police should use more tazers & force when it comes to people who run from them or come at them when they have been told to halt. If that policeman had of hit him with a night stick they would of screamed brutality, if he had not stopped him with a tazer he might of been the one dead. It's a "NO WIN" situation for the police. I think they should have more liberties than they have. I don't believe in brutality but I don't believe in the police having to take abuse or have their lives threatened without some self defense.

I agree Marilyn, A citizen would certainly use force if someone came at them Why shouldn't have policeman that is answering a call. You are right it is a no win situation. They are the good guys when we need them but if we have done something and the cops are called on us "Katy bar the door" Dot Jo ----- Original Message ----- From: "MARILYN/DON RICKMAN" <mdrick@centurytel.net> To: <down-home-chatter@rootsweb.com> Sent: Sunday, January 18, 2009 8:53 PM Subject: Re: [DOWN-HOME-CHATTER] coded ammo .. > In my opinion the police should use more tazers & force when it comes to > people who run from them or come at them when they have been told to halt. > If that policeman had of hit him with a night stick they would of screamed > brutality, if he had not stopped him with a tazer he might of been the one > dead.
