U.S.: Police brutality on YouTube example No. 193,196: Mom gets tasered

  • The cop clearly pulled her out of the car in this case just to taser her. Jerk. We hope he gets fired for doing this during a routine traffic shop. He claimed that Audra Harmon, by the way, was talking on her cell phone, which she says she wasn’t. source

Offbeat: Guy covered with gasoline, tased: Pardon me while I burst into flames

  • He was carrying a lighter and pouring himself with petrol. We don’t know if the lighter set it off or something from the Taser.
  • Inspector Bill Munnee of the West Australian Police • Describing the events that led to a man being set on fire. After covering himself with gasoline, the Australian man was charging at a police officer, who set off his taser and set the man on fire. Which sounds like an insane sight to watch – if you make horror movies, steal this scene for your next one. • source

  • previously As you might remember, an ambulance in Oklahoma was pulled over by a police officer while he had a patient inside after the officer believed he was flicked off by an EMT. That situation was very he-said-he-said.
  • now A church pastor in Texas was arrested for obstructing the duties of a police officer during a traffic stop. During the incident, the pastor was tased by an officer near a church. This situation? Also very he-said-he-said. source
