    They are wearing tactical uniforms. Made so that if they start beating people, the people can't defend themselves

    Apparently you do, Ex, this was an American cop wasn't it? They don't have bad cops in Canada, Australia, Europe, etc. Or is America the only land plagued with bad seeds?

    I certainly didn't insinuate that Steve. In fact I think you'll find I even admitted to our bad ones down here.

    I didn't insinuate that either but the instances of cops acting beyond their powers is more prevalent in the U.S. these days. So many cameras are rolling everywhere catching so many bad ones.

    Manitoba police and natives have always had a uneasy relationship. We have nowhere near the brutality that is seen in the videos posted above. Feel free to prove me wrong cowboy.

    BTW I posted 12 like you asked, where did you get the "5" number?

    It shouldn't be happening at all. Judging from the number of examples on Youtube, I'd say it was epidemic. There's another of two cops tasing a woman because she wouldn't get out of the car after being stopped and ticketed for going 51 in a 35 mph zone. The cop who was talking could have just ticketed her and let her go. She was arguing about the legality of the stop but basically cooperating, stayed in the car, gave him her license, etc.

    After he's done, he gets his partner and orders her out of the car, she stayed put, and he tasered her in her own car. He didn't say anything about her being drunk, so there's no indication that was the reason. Besides speeding, he told her she had a broken window and tail light and wasn't wearing her seatbelt.

    The worst part are the comments--about how she had it coming because she talked back to him, "women are stupid," references to the fact that she was black, as though those were sufficient reasons to taser her. Depressing.

    I can't think of any reason to taser an unarmed person who is not committing or threatening to commit any violence. If these kinds of cops were in charge, they'd probably taser their children for refusing to clean up their rooms when so ordered. My own godfather was a cop --a good one-- and he would never have done anything like this.

    Asking, no it shouldn't happen at all but the fact is it does and it will and always has. It's not a justification, some of us just grow weary of NK harping on problems in America as if Canada doesn't face the same problems. By and large the police in America do a pretty good job considering, I certainly don't fear being a victim of police misconduct and never have.

    Steve-o,
    Have you not noticed that all your questions asked on this board always relate to something that is wrong in the US?

    From when you said "Here's 4 more." Add that to the original and that makes 5.

    Well gee, now I live in the US so I usually address situations here. But by all means don't count the global warming updates, the Islamacization of Europe and other such posts.
