Cops taser man trying to get home

By now, you’ve probably seen it. The video is all over the news. The story is:

Officers in hurricane-ravaged Fort Myers used a Taser gun on a man allegedly trying to get by a police barrier to get home, and it was caught on tape.

A crowd formed around the scene and voices can be heard yelling, “Leave him alone,” “That is so wrong,” and “Come on man, he’s frustrated.”

The man had three children in the car with him. Many in the crowd felt for the man who hasn’t seen his home in days.

A free citizen has decided to return to his home. The extent of police involvement in this case should be a warning that it might be dangerous, proceed with caution. The hurricane was over. How about using those resources to, you know, stop looting?

Dragging a man out of his car, tasering him, and arresting him in front of his family for no real reason is pretty horrid.

    They wouldn’t win the suit. It’s the man’s property.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
