I wonder what the result will be from this.
Police in Glendale, Colorado will brief reporters Tuesday afternoon on the apparent death of a 37-year-old man with a Taser gun. The incident happened Monday around 4:30 p.m. at the Cedar Pointe Condominiums in Glendale. Police responded to a 911 call from a woman saying a man was acting violently.
When they arrived they found the man out of control and uncooperative.
The unidentified man reportedly refused to allow paramedics to treat him. He ignored police orders to stop resisting. After repeated attempts, officers say they resorted to an M-26 Taser weapon to subdue him.
He was hospitalized and died.
Alright, what do cops do now when confronted with someone out of control. Denver area cops are running out of choices. Guns will kill people. Choke holds kill people. Pepper spray kills people. And now Tasers kill people.
What now? I know for a fact that whenever I come into contact with police I will not be harmed. Why? Because I don't become Uncooperative With Cops. And I try not to put myself in postiions where police Think of me as a Threat.
I know the drill. I'm a white male who never gets hassled. Wrong! Whites get killed by cops too. Whites scare police too. I have been pulled over for no reason to be investigated. I have been stopped for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
This ISN'T the issue. The issue is, ONCE PUT IN THAT SITUATION WHAT ARE COPS TO DO?
I think it's time we give police a little credit for going out and DOING THE HARDEST JOB A PERSON HAS.
