No, it's anyone who denies evidence because of their own ideals, regaurdless of whether or not it is valid or not.
and if you dont see the 2 sides to that coin, i believe you are doing just that. what of the objective accounts of the entire incident, posted by GCG, which states that her hands were pinned behind her back by two officers, before she was released and the taser was used. to use force in such a manner after she was pinned was against the law. cops get fired for that kind of behavior.
and yea, the lady was an a$$hole. i dont see with liberal blinders. she was clearly a lunatic. but she was a restrained lunatic. the cops job was to then handcuff her, not carry out vigilante justice.

GCG, no matter what you say--no matter what the evidence says--the headlines running through their minds will be "PRO-WAR BUSH SUPPORTERS UNJUSTLY TASER PEACEFUL PROTESTORS" and "DOES BUSH HAVE BROWN SHORTS?"
My comment was based on this statement, people who are desperately trying to relate the occurance with pro bush/anti bush statements. I wasn't referencing anything about the actual incident, seeing as I've already said that no one participating in this thread actually knows with any validity what actually happened to cause the tasering.
And if it's against the law, then the cops will get fired most definately, no big deal.

well, even if they deserve to get fired, if the public doesnt make a stink about it, they wont.

when a person is restrained...they are restrained.
a cop has no right to carry out physical punishment on you.
they had her down, then got up off of her to shock her.
cruel and unusual punishment. what happened previous is irrelevant.
try again
If it where up to me these anti-war protesters would be shot for treason.And I am not being funny that is my honest opinion.

Its easy to comment on the aftermath as we lounge in front of our PCs.Had it been easy to arrest that woman, a taser would not have been used.
In all that hustle, with a lot of actions and reactions going on all at once before a scenario of protestors dressed in black with face covered marred by violence, and with the General Public in direct threat of harm's way, the police deemed it a situation fit for telescopic batons and tasers.
With such an event presented before their eyes, a detailed assesment cannot be made at the expense of the General Public ; time was foresaken. The job had to be done.
While I cannot convince you my POV and respecting your opinions, I must say that this was an interisting topic. ✅
So....they're surrounded by protesters dressed in black with face covered marred by violence, and with the General Public in direct threat of harm's way. I see. Soooo......that's why there's initially 3 cops subduing ONE SINGLE SMALL WOMAN. Yes....makes incredible sense. The use of the taser was inappropriate, they got filmed while doing it, they should get kicked out of the force.
