There is a lot that goes on off camera and I would want to wait for the Texas Ranger's report.
The Department had 10 taser incidents in 2014 and all fell within policy. I just want to know the police officer's side.
Vasquez didn't cooperate from the beginning, so I want to know more about that. I saw an interview where Vasquez says he grabbed the taser when he was on the ground. So, really, he resisted the Officer all the way through this incident. I would have cooperated the whole way, even if I thought the Officer was wrong, knowing I would have my day in court. Resisting weakens my case, JMO.

Thats not what I see. I see an old man who pulls into a place he was going to. He may not have even seen the cop behind him
He gets out and is heading inside, where he had planned on going before the cop turned his lights on
the Cop waves him over saying he has no tags. The old man goes to the back and points out he has dealer tags and then the cop tries to detain him.
the Cop had no right to detain the man especially after being shown the dealer tags. You just don't detain someone for not having tags at all. That is one of the dumbest moves ever, to detain someone over not having tags. The car was not stolen. The man was not running away.
The man pulls into the service station he works at. He is going about his business. When the cop says something to him about the tags, the man does not run away. He walks to the back of the car and points to the dealer tags

Re: Saddened by NY Grand Jury Decision To NOT Indi
Pathetic to characterize the majority of police officers and police departments as racist when what we are seeing splashed all over the news are the exceptions to the rule, not the norm. The abuses need to be addressed vigorously, but every day there are many many police officers who are doing the right thing for all of those they are responsible to protect.

I don't think anyone is intentionally saying ALL police are racist, bad or whatever.

the rhetoric is so laced with vitriol and innuendo that it seems that way. I believe Sharpton does that intentionally. He is a viper. He is not good for anyone. He is man with a can of gas near a fire

I would wager a cop could be filmed beating an unarmed, disabled person to death and PO would still claim the officer was in the clear and blame the unarmed, disabled, dead person for something.

Has anyone ever walked up to you and punched you in the face? I'm just wondering.

While he wasn't beat to death, Garner was an unarmed, disabled man in which the police had a major role in his death. And who did PO blame, over and over again? The unarmed, disabled, and now dead man.
