Sci-fi infractions.
D-Man: “…. and so then I was… like… a post-Apocalyptic Tribal Leader for a day. The only thing missing from having my fantasy sort of come true was an Ewok village. And Princess Leia.”
D-Friend: “And a crashed Stormtrooper Speeder Bike…?”
D-Man: “What? … What have the Germans got to do with it?”
D-Friend: “Everything, mate. Everything.”
D-Man: “True. I guess they did persecute the Jawas…”
The cops want to add taser guns to their weaponry.
Some think this is a wrong move. That police can’t be trusted with such a weapon, seeing as some officers have been allegedly abusing people with pepper spray.
Allegedly, as in, an officer was recently caught on video, blasting a man accused of a minor infringement -- who was lying on his stomach, with his hands cuffed behind his back -- full on in the face.
As you do.
I don’t have a problem with that.
If I was a bad cop, I’d do exactly the same.
Except for the getting caught on camera bit.
But, I must admit, I too am a little bit concerned at the prospect of the police being armed with tasers.
I mean, what if they accidentally forget to set their tasers to stun -- wouldn’t the result be a little bit … like, crispy?
