GA Cops Repeatedly Taser and Pepper Spray 57 Year Old School Teacher Who Called for Help:

Janice Wells called the Richland Police Department when she feared a prowler was outside her clapboard house in the rural west Georgia town.

The third-grade teacher had phoned for help. But within minutes of an officer coming to her backdoor, she was screaming in pain and begging not to be shocked again with a Taser. With each scream and cry, the officer threatened her with more shocks.

“All of it’s just unreal to me. I was scared to death,” Wells said in an interview with the AJC. “He kept tasing me and tasing me. My fingernails are still burned. My leg, back and my butt had a long scar on it for days.”

The officer in question is Ryan Smith of the Lumpkin Police Department. Smith was called to back up an officer from the Richland Police Department because the sheriff’s office in the county, Stewart, had no deputies to send.

Smith resigned as a result of the incident. The other officer involved, Tim Murphy of Richland PD, was fired for using pepper spray while trying to arrest Wells.

Their headline doesn’t mention that one of them already found a new job

Officer ’s rationale: Bed-ridden grandmother ‘took more aggressive stance’ in her bed

When Lonnie Tinsley of El Reno, Oklahoma, called 911 to ask for medical assistance for his disabled, bed-ridden grandmother, he couldn’t have dreamed it would end with police tasering the 86-year-old woman twice, stepping on her oxygen hose until she couldn’t breathe, and sending her to a psychiatric hospital for six days.

Yet that’s what a lawsuit (PDF) filed in a federal court in Oklahoma this week alleges.

According to the lawsuit, in December, 2009, Tinsley came by his grandmother’s apartment to see if she was doing alright in the midst of a winter storm. When she wasn’t able to tell him if she had taken her medication, Tinsley called 911 and asked responders to send medical technicians over to evaluate her.

But instead of an ambulance, the lawsuit alleges, “as many as 10 El Reno police” arrived and “pushed their way through the door.”

Hey it’s Texas, of course you can be shot for DWB

Shot in his own driveway, after getting out of his own car, while laying on the ground because the cop “thought” they were driving a stolen car? Was there a report that this car was stolen? No. Why did the cop think that then? Oh that’s right they were Driving While Black.

Texas Officer Is Acquitted in Shooting
Sergeant Cotton and another officer forced Mr. Tolan and his cousin to lie face down on the ground at gunpoint after the young men had gotten out of their car in front of Mr. Tolan’s house. The officers mistakenly believed that the car had been stolen and that Mr. Tolan had a weapon. Mr. Tolan survived the shooting, though a bullet punctured his lung and lodged in his liver.

Mr. Tolan, the son of Bobby Tolan, a former Major League Baseball player, watched stone-faced as the verdict was read and then left the court with the rest of his family, declining requests to be interviewed.

Outside the courtroom, Sergeant Cotton said: “I’m glad it’s over. I just want to go back to work.”

The Tolan family has also sued Sergeant Cotton, charging him with racial discrimination. That suit is pending.

The shooting created a storm of controversy last year, as black leaders and lawyers for the Tolan family said Sergeant Cotton’s actions were part of a pattern of discrimination in Bellaire, an affluent town largely surrounded by Houston.

The Bellaire Police Department has been accused of stopping black and Hispanic motorists that pass through the city more often than it stops whites, an accusation the city strongly denies.

During closing arguments on Tuesday, the prosecutor, Clint Greenwood, argued that Sergeant Cotton had given three versions of the shooting, once saying he saw something shiny in Mr. Tolan’s hand and then later retracting that statement.

“An unarmed kid was shot by the Bellaire police, and you know what? He wasn’t doing anything illegal,” Mr. Greenwood told the jury. “It’s a tragedy of errors, not a comedy of errors, a tragedy.”

If this shit happens in Seattle Washington, what do you think will go down with Sheriff Joe’s thugs in AZ armed with their new police state rules.

Seattle cop apologizes for screaming racist threat at innocent man he’d kicked in face
What happened that fateful night was brought to the world thanks to the presence of an amateur videographer, who captured Cobane kicking an innocent man in the face as he lay face down on the concrete.

The robbery suspect was reportedly Hispanic. Facing their Hispanic male suspect who lay compliant on the ground, Cobane screamed: “I’m going to beat the fucking Mexican piss out of you homey. You feel me?”

Apparently reacting to the man wiping his eye, the officer kicked his face and dragged his boot across the man’s arm. Seconds later, a female officer on the scene stomped on his leg.

New analysis of 40-year-old recording of Kent State shootings reveals that Ohio Guard was given an order to prepare to fire

The previously undetected command could begin to explain the central mystery of the Kent State tragedy – why 28 Guardsmen pivoted in unison atop Blanket Hill, raised their rifles and pistols and fired 67 times, killing four students and wounding nine others in an act that galvanized sentiment against the Vietnam War.
The order indicates that the gunshots were not spontaneous, or in response to sniper fire, as some have suggested over the years.

Ten Ways Christians Tend to Fail at Being Christian

10.Generally speaking (which of course is the most offensive way to speak about any group of people), Christians tend to embarrass themselves by knowing so little about either the Bible or the history of Christianity. Believing that the Bible is the word of God, for instance, is one thing; knowing nothing about the long process by which men decided which texts would and wouldn’t make it into the Bible is another. It’s not that all Christians should be full-on theologians or historians. But if you’re a Christian who doesn’t know the Great Schism from The Great Santini, or the Diet of Worms from … well, the diet of worms, then you’ve got some homework to do.
