So just in case you haven't completely lost faith in every single branch of law enforcement over the last few months, from the local cops to the Secret Service, here's one more story to set your teeth on edge, even if it had sort of a satisfactory outcome:
The guy was a dick, but this woman reminds me of the gate attendant in "Meet the Parents" who wouldn't let Ben Stiller get on the plane -even though he was the only person in the waiting area - until she called his row. I have used her for years as the perfect example of the functionary who has a teeny, teeny, tiny bit of authority and is By Gawd gonna execute it no matter what!
Can we save the tasings for the people who deserve them? Y'know, like the people who don't pick up after Fido when he does his business?
If a Taser is the least forceful tool they give her, how is using it "excessive"? Getting zapped in the butt seems to be precisely what this douchenozzle had coming.
A little-known principle of Quantum Mechanics that states that you can know the perp's name or whether he is bluffing about his heart condition, but not both.
Two dogs, one leash, silly.
Yes.
You can't leash Snoopy, that's just wrong...

Yeah, and his papers were likely not in order either. He was probably without his walking around permit, that's likely why he ran.
If being an asshole is a crime worth tasing, then there aren't enough tasers in the world.
Tazing's pretty mild compared to what you get when you break the leash laws at my fetish club.
Off the sidewalk, out of mind.

Let's hope they don't hand down the excess waterboards.
