Fucking Disqusting - Crazy Scary World

My friend Karisa Posted this link on her facebook page just a few minutes ago.
I don't think I can properly express the way it made me feel. but I'm gonnna try. Sorry about the language. Its the only way.
So the background is this. A man is pulled over for a speeding ticket, which he refuses to sign, at which point the officer arrests him. The guy, obviously shocked, as you probably would be too, starts freaking out when the cuffs go on him. He drops to his knees and starts crying.
He's not near the street. He's not cussing. He's not being violent. He's not threatening the police officer. He's just upset and he won't get up and get into the police car. He's scared. I woulda been scared too.
Being a small female, I'm always afraid to get pulled over by the police, especially on a dark deserted highway. It totally terrifies me. Anyhow so the guy is just upset and crying...and the cop tells him to get in the police car...he refuses..the cop tells the man he 's going to Taze him. He says " I don't care anymore, go ahead". and the cop does. over and over and over....
Its awful. The full video is apparently 7 minutes long...but i can't find it online so here's the link to the one from the associated press.


I don't know what to say. The man took the cops to court saying that it was unreasonalbe force and won...but then lost on appeal..its now going to the supreme court.
It sickens me to think someone would find this reasonable. The guy did nothing. If the cop felt threatened he could have just held the guy there, and called for back up. The man did NOTHING threatening.
So next time you get a ticket...just accept it right? FUCK NO! OMG. Next thing you know you're not gonna have to do anything at all. Speeding and you get arrested and FUCKING Tasered?!?!?!?!
Refuse to sign a ticket and you get FUCKING TASERED? AKA...TORTURED...AKA ABUSED! Fuck that. I'm so upset. I think its ridiculous. I'm terrified of the police state socialist bullshit this country is headed for. What in the HELL are we gonna do?
I'm gonna go vomit now.
El.
